ACT AGAINST TORTURE, Senator Feinstein!

by Bill Carpenter (wcarpent [at] ccsf.edu)
Staff at Senator Diane Feinstein's downtown San Francisco office refused to even meet with the Act Against Torture group on the morning of September 28th. Photos below are from the group's demonstration at 9am in front of Feinstein's office at Post and Market. AAT left then for Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi's office and planned to end up at Senator Barbara Boxer's office.

This isn't too strange for Diane Feinstein because she had already made an official statement 6 months ago where she said "the possibility of the Democratic Party seeking the impeachment of President Bush is "off the table"! So Diane Feinstein is in reality a Bush backer!

Two years ago in 2004, I wrote to Diane Feinstein about the Diebold voting machines, requesting that the machines supply a receipt after one votes, much like the ATM machines we all use. She DID write me back in email, not a form letter, but a letter from herself, stating "not this year (2004 election year) but we are working on it for NEXT year." Well, THAT never happened here in Florida and I have been an absentee voter ever since. It's not that I don't trust the Diebold machines (built by a Bush supporter/friend) but all the data is fed through Windows-based PCs, which, to me, is easily hackable and numbers can (and ARE) changed. So much for the WORD of Diane Feinstein....NOT a woman of her word. That's disappointing to say the least.

Just my 2 cents.........
