giggle; sweet miss p, doncha know? it's not that they don't want us to hear him; they don't want him to hear US!
actually, i read a comment somewhere today - don't know if i'll be able to reconstruct where - by a person who had experience with those machines. this person said the yellow button was actually located behind the base of the thing, and if the plastic cover was on it, you couldn't even press it hard enough to make it work. and no one voting would really see it.
but that's not the point, really. why would they need a button that would just produce more entries? that's like having a button on an ATM that spits out hundred dollar billls. no explanation beyond mischief you can think of.
the worry is far less that voters will press the button repeatedly, than election workers and other "officials" will do so, before or after the official vote.
Interestingly, there is no major press coverage of this revelation.

on another note, why are they sending bush to all of the pure red states. isn't that a stitch?! don't they know we can hear him from here?

so much damning evidence, so little time.
