Daily Voting News For April 21, 2008

Guest Blogged by John Gideon of VotersUnite.org

In a critical editorial, The Asbury Park Press asks why the Secretary of State of New Jersey has decided that it is alright to undermine the court. Not only has Secretary Wells undermined the court, as they editorialize, but she has done all she can to discredit Princeton University Professor Ed Felten.

Meanwhile Sequoia Voting has more problems than just the courts in New Jersey. If they are able to save their corporate self will they have any money left to meet payroll?

Does anyone have to remind everyone that tomorrow is election-day in Pennsylvania? Depending on the number of problems being reported by the media we may have two editions for a couple days....

Binoy Kampmark: Trump, AUKUS And Australia’s Dim Servitors

Peter Dunne: Dunne's Weekly - The Wrong Answer To A Question That Does Not Exist

The Treaty is therefore our modus operandi for common nationhood.

In that regard, the Treaty Principles Bill is simply the wrong answer to a question that does not properly exist.

Martin LeFevre - Meditations: Perception, Conception And Beauty

As we get older the perception of beauty becomes more difficult because memories & experiences fill the mind, leaving less & less space for seeing with innocence, as a child sees. It requires diligence to retain a purity of perception, though the very notion of purity is ridiculed by ruling elites.

Alastair Thompson: On The Publication Of The First NCQG Text 'New Collective Quantified Goal On Climate Finance'

Ramzy Baroud: A Nation In Denial - Why Israel’s Defeat Is Imminent

They continue to reference and recycle old religious dogmas, while fervently praying for miracles. In doing so, they insist on reconstructing a new 'Fantasy Israel', which, of course, is set to collapse, as fantasies often do.

Richard S. Ehrlich: Trump's Victory, Authoritarians & Trade Warriors

Trump's victory may bring some relief for the leaders of three authoritarian, pro-China, Southeast Asian nations -- Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia. His tough threats are expected to intimidate Asians hoping to move to the U.S. or profit from Chinese-U.S. trade.
