Utterly Meaningless

The Republicans will do anything to stay in power. They lie and cheat and will try to disenfranchise any voters that are not Republican profile voters. The Republican officials who are engaged in this practice should be put on trial and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The lily white GOP days are numbered.

The only thing a republican can do now is LOSE. I hope it will take them 50 years to come back! Great job GW Bush…NOT!

Granted the computer system is not perfect, but it was reported yesterday that 20 percent of the people flagged by the system are legal voters. That leaves 80 percent of the flagged voters fraudulant. In other words, just by ACORN’S admitted 400,000 flagged voters, 320,000 illegal votes would be allowed if the democrats are allowed to do away with the computer system. Funny how the “CHOSENS NEWS NETWORK”, CNN, could find one of the 20% but not one of the 80%.

Just love how CNN spins Democratic efforts at vote fraud through massive illegal registration and concurrent fraudulent absentee & early votes and somehow turns that into Republicans trying to suppress the vote. The MSM truly is in the tank for BO. There is a political party stealing the election this year, but it is not the Republicans.

As a registered Democrat, I see no reason why every voter should NOT have to show an ID when voting. If you can afford a pack of cigerettes and a 6 pack of beer, you can afford an ID and a copy of your birth certificate.
Mistakes are made, yes, but in Ohio’s case there is evidence of ACORN registration fraud and over 200,000 unmatched SS and drivers license numbers.

20 percent were KNOWN legal voters. There is no way of determining the status of the other 80 percent. The fact that the error rate is even that high should give you pause. Remember the old saw about 10 guilty men going free… Better 10 illegal votes be cast than one legal vote be denied.

As for showing ID, if the government were to provide free of charge a fool-proof, error-free card that did not disproportionately affect the poor and minorities, I’d go along with it. The fact that all of the GOP proposals for ID cards are thinly veiled attacks on Democratic voters puts the lie to their claims of wanting to maintain the reliability of our elections. They only want to control the outcomes.

Registration fraud and vote fraud are two seperate things. First of all, ACORN is REQUIRED BY LAW to submit every registration they get, even the ones they know are fraudulent. So they mark the questionable registrations and turn them all in. Further, the fact that somebody took a shortcut on their paid job of registering voters by registering Donald Duck only really matters if and when Donald Duck shows up to vote. Otherwise it has no material impact on the election. If anything, the real material impact of ACORN’s issues is Republican’s using it to suppress legitimate voters by scaring them away from the polls.

Republicans of course, know all this. It’s just another example at the fundamental dishonesty at the root of the McCain campaign.

Repblicans are probably disenfranchising their own base. Never underestimate the power of STUPID.

If this election is stolen again I refuse to sit on my butt and whine….I will out in the streets. It’s time we stood up for democracy!

If this election is stolen again, people will be out on the streets and it will be a blood bath. I have heard they have prison camps already set up for us. Never underestimate the Nazi neo cons. They will do anything to stay in power. If this does happen we can all say goodbye to the America we have known and say hello to an American third world country. We are already 4th in the world in disparity between the rich and the poor, behind countries like Mexico and Turkey. Incredible isn’t it, how we have fallen in every way in the last 8 years. I for one will seriously think about leaving this once great country if McCain should steal his way into the WH. This country won’t be worth anything and will be a miserable place to live.

THE NEW DEAL made America strong enough to win World War II.

THE GREAT SOCIETY made America great enough to go to the moon.

REAGANOMICS destroyed that strength and greatness letting Gordon Gecko run free.

Obama is not a Socialist, and what he proposes is not Socialism.

The only Socialist in the race for the White House is Sarah Palin.
Alaska’s Windfall Profit Tax = Redistribution of wealth, earned by Entrepenuers.

What we have under W., and what REAGANOMICS essentially is, is a system
akin to Feudal Europe, which is what America’s founding fathers fought for
Independence from in the first place.

And just as the Palin’s fight for Alaskan Independence,
Obama fights for America’s Independence from Gordon Gecko,
and the Republican party which would turn the U.S.A. into
The Peoples Republic Of America so they could run it just like their
heroes run China.

OK, where did the new and somewhat off kilter commenters come from?

It think it’s all a mess. There seems to me to be plenty of shadiness on all sides to go around. I just want it all over & hopefully in a week or so it will all be over.

If they are still counting votes through the hoildays over this voter mess I don’t think I can stand it. I think we are in for rough times for awhile no matter who is elected so pick somebody already so we can get off the subject.

This is one year I am completely feed up w/ the whole system, both sides and both nominees for office. Rumors & lies seem to abound on both sides thanks to the internet & cable TV
Both nominees are portrayed as the devil or the last hope savior depending on what blog or TV channel you happen to be looking at in the moment.

Looking a history it seems that this kind of mudslinging, pie in the sky promising I’m right, he’s wrong has always gone on. It just seems to be so much worse in our 24/7 instant information world.
Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was so sad today at the bank. The nice young teller and I agreed the Fox News always playing in the background was annoying but she was just sick of hearing about all of this and didn’t intend to vote at all. Didn’t feel strongly about one or the other candidate.

Sigh. . . I told her that was too bad. A young woman like her, I would think, would be especially interested in the future.
