Republican Voter Registration Fraud

  From the BradBlog comes the latest on the Republican voter registration fraud that has swept through 11 Florida counties thus far, and 6 additional states. This is some serious shit people.

Another matter we've been looking at, is the claim that this scandal is contained to only five battleground states --- Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Nevada and Colorado --- where Strategic Allied Consulting is known to have been operating before being fired. There is evidence, however, that they and/or other Sproul companies, may still be operating in other states, such as California and Oregon, and that the specific type of rather offensive registration work they were doing --- lying to potential registrants and only offering Romney supporters the opportunity to register to vote --- is not necessarily their own strategy, but that of the entire Republican National Committee and the Romney campaign.

And then there's the matter of the hypocrisy of how Republicans and their media outlets, such as Fox "News" and the rest of the Rightwing media are now trying to pretend that this entire matter isn't happening at all. Yes, the very same outlets who all went wall-to-wall in 2008, and beyond, in claiming (inaccurately) that ACORN was doing what this GOP group appears to actually have done, are now going out of their way to ignore the scandal entirely.

       and…

"What first appeared to be an isolated problem in one Florida county has now spread statewide," AP's Gary Fineout reported on Saturday. Of course, it only appeared to them and the RNC "to be an isolated problem."

In any event, AP is now reporting that the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF), --- whose largest expenditure this election cycle, $1.3 million, was on Strategic Allied Consulting --- filed an election fraud complaint against the company on Friday. It's now in the hands of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

   Florida has an Republican controlled Legislature, a governor who should be in a federal penitentiary, and mostly Republican election supervisors. Does 2000 ring a bell with you?

 

Debunking Conservative Crap

  The list of Conservative bullshit is a very long list which grows bigger and bigger with each passing day, as you well know.

   The following is a partial list which debunks some of those Conservative lies.

There’s a little “test” that the right emails to itself regularly to make themselves feel better about voting for people that openly despise them. They call it the “Fence Test” as in, “Which side of the fence are you on?” and, my oh my, is it full of right wing fantasies. Let’s break it down, shall we?

If a Republican doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one. Instead, he buys 50 to “protect” himself from the Communist Nazi hordes that are about to take over America.

If a Democrat doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed. No, we want assault rifles and extended clips to be outlawed because they exist for the sole purpose of killing large numbers of people in as short an amount of time as possible. Strangely, Republicans seem to apply this very same standard to abortion: They don’t like it so NOBODY should have one. What’s that? You’re protecting innocent life? So are we, dumb-ass!

If a Republican doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels. And then they go online to whine about how persecuted they are because those other “bad” channels keeping saying everything they “know” is a lie.
Democrats demand that those they don’t like be shut down. ie – (FNC) FOX NEWS CHANNEL Yes, because Fox is not news, it’s propaganda and it’s deliberately hurting the country. There’s a reason study after study after study shows Fox viewers to be the most uninformed people in the country. For god’s sake! One study even showed that people who watch NO news are better informed!

If a Republican is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church. An openly atheist Republican? That’s like a unicorn sighting. Republicans MUST pander to the religious right or they’ll be run out of town.
A Democrat non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. No, we want Republicans to stop promoting Christianity over all other beliefs and lack thereof. For instance, a Republican would rather swallow rat poison than allow a Muslim to have the same religious “rights” they claim for themselves. After all, WE’RE not the ones that keep trying to ban Mosques, are we?
