Duane Hammond’s Navy son is assigned aboard CNV-77 USS George H.W. Bush and was showing patriotic pride in his son. He was not making a political statement and the firing incident by International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees Local 33 (IATSE Local 33) happened while he worked constructing the staging for a rally Obama would attend later that day.
This is the same extremist mentality that lead NPR socialists to fire Juan Williams. Statements disagreeing with the Democrat Party view of the world is so threatening to them they are compelled to fire people and quash freedom of speech. This behavior is an Un-American Activity.
This is an example of the mentality of the rampant anti-American extremism of the present day Democrat Party as a whole and why all Americans who are actually Americans must vote this party out of office in our government.
This is not Cuba, this is Venezuela and this is not Iran.
This is the United States of America.
Those in authority who hate and suppress views they do not approve must be actively held accountable by each one of you and prevented from holding power over us from within the government and within the private sector.
Public reaction to airing of the above clip on Los Angles television station KTLA-Channel 5 rallied against the Left-Wing IATSE Local 33 and forced them to back down.
Report such left-wing suppressive behavior as soon as possible to your local media TV station. This is the only timely and public way to hold the left-wing extremists accountable for their actions and behavior. We have to rally public support to hold the Democrat Party responsible for it’s fascist mentality.

Get ready for new Muslim invasion, “Justified by Humanitarian concerns”
Obama authorizes additional 80,000 “refugees” to entry country
By Dr. Paul L. Williams Friday, October 22, 2010
President Barack Hussein Obama, in a determination letter to Congress, has announced that he will allow an additional 80,000 immigrants – – mostly from Islamic countries – – to resettle in the United States during fiscal year 2011.
Mr. Obama says that the increase in Muslim immigrants “is justified by humanitarian concerns or is otherwise in the national interest.”
The following “goals” for new immigrants has been set as follows:

Have fun, and I fixed your comment, dear!

another person also videoed this event at the League of Socialist Women Voters… and they tried to shut down his videoing.

Very Powerful Video VF and once again I thank you for sharing it over at my post. I am working on another post that will also leave a mark on the Socialist Agenda we are seeing in this Country. You gave the Enola Gay a new birth and I intend to not waste the gift you have given me.
Good second vid of the event. Socialist Nazis want to control the way the debate was portrayed.
JACKPOT!
Today was a good day. Lot’s of OLD stuff. American Picker type stuff. Old cans, old bottles, lots of glass, lots of books, a couple of 60s games with boxs in good shape, and an old ravioli maker still in the box.
Finally finished putting the final touches on the post VF. Good Afternoon Foxwood and good to see you.
Morning, y’all. FOX, the old ravioli maker in my house is the guy writing this, but I ain’t in the box yet! Man, these lefties are going berserk, aren’t they. Signs of desperation, firing JW–really one of their own, if somewhat more reasonable–giving ballots to prisoners in Cook Country, but not getting them out to the G.I.’s. There’s gonna be all kinds of fraud going on this Election Day. But it’s not gonna matter. They’re going down.
Good afternoon, Sami!
Good afternoon, Bob!
I’m sure there’s some kind of old ravioli maker comment to be made there. 🙂
If we get out the vote, I’m sure we can overcome their cheating attempts.
Good afternoon Bob, and Foxwood, and VF.
Foxwood says: If we get out and vote. You are so right in that Fox. “If” is a big word when it comes to Voter Turnout.
To me it feels like this coming election is the culmination of all of our efforts these past two years to expose the Socialist/Communist Corruption in our Government. I think each and every one of us has given our all to that end and I do not think we are going to be disappointed in the results. This will be our biggest stepping stone as we move forward to 2012 and the end of the Obama Regime.
Afternoon, Guys!
had some housework to do… it never ends lol
“If” is a big word, Sami. One thing I plan to do is talk to my neighbors today. Monday is the last day here for early voting.
the Dems justify their criminal tactics because the feel entitled regardless of the law. their problem is we are a lot more mobilized than last election to go after it plus it only works in marginal elections.
I had to take a break of cleaning, pricing and ordering my new old stuff.
I believe the Conservatives and Teaparty are aware and ready for the cheating and lying.
You can bet there will be a lot more Patriots with video cameras at the Voting Stations and I believe any strong arm or fraudulent Voting will be caught on tape and put up on utube before Obama can blink an eye.
If I saw Pap Samir, I’d have to shoulder bump him on my way into the voting building.
I will be armed with both a camcorder and video recording cell phone.
I am so glad I moved to a Conservative Stronghold out here in the country.
When I was in Cleveland and had to vote with all the Democrat Trash I used to just shutter thinking that these idiots were even allowed to vote. Most of em had no clue on issues nor agenda’s. They were just there to guarantee their Obama Money would keep flowing. Home of Dennis Kucinich types.
Midterm Races Could Hold Key to White House, Congress in 2012
President Obama’s name is not on the ballot Nov. 2, but his chance at a second term in the White House could be on the line.
As the president and top Democratic surrogates like Bill Clinton criss-cross the country to campaign for their party’s gubernatorial candidates, party operatives are looking ahead to what this year’s race will mean for 2012.
And so far, it’s not looking good for Democrats.
Several peculiarities in the 2010 landscape could have great bearing on the next election. For starters, Republicans are projected to pick up several seats in the 37 governors’ races being held next Tuesday. That could give whoever is running as the GOP presidential nominee in 2012 a powerful surrogate at the helm of a number of key swing states.
In addition, this year’s governors’ races coincide with the 2010 Census, the national head count that will be used as the basis for reshaping congressional districts nationwide. The governors, by virtue of their veto pen and other factors, have considerable sway over that process — and if Republicans make the kind of gains forecasters predict, the party will be poised to redraw the congressional map to their advantage come 2012. This would help the party either build, or reinforce, a congressional majority two years from now, while having a more indirect impact on the presidential race.
Finally, projections show that when the districts are redrawn, red states will likely end up gaining seats in Congress while blue states will lose them. For Obama, this means a more grueling and challenging climb to the 270 electors needed to secure reelection in 2012 — the number of electors each state has is based on the number of its congressional seats, and if deep-red states like Texas grow, that’s bad news for the sitting president.
“The states that are going to gain congressional seats are the ones that John McCain won,” said David Avella, executive director of Republican recruitment arm GOPAC.
All these factors are on the minds of Republicans who, in some cases, are plotting a two-cycle path to Washington domination. The Republican Governors Association publicly claims that its races in 2010 are the key to a 2012 wave.
“The RGA believes Republicans won’t win back the U.S. Senate, House or presidency until first reclaiming a majority of governorships for the GOP,” the group says on its website.
Democratic governors provided Obama a big boost in the 2008 presidential election in several battleground states — Democrats were at the helm of nearly every “purple” state Obama won, from Colorado to Virginia to Ohio to Iowa.
But what if some of those seats change hands? Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland was an enthusiastic advocate for Obama’s presidential campaign in 2008, but now he’s fighting for his political life against GOP candidate John Kasich. Republican gubernatorial candidates are poised to take back Democratic seats in Obama-supporting Pennsylvania, Iowa and Michigan, among other states. The storied battleground of Florida is still a toss-up in the race between Republican Rick Scott and Democrat Alex Sink.
Avella said the outcomes play heavily into the 2012 presidential race.
“The governor controls the political machinery for his party,” he said. He said Republican governors will be able to leverage fundraising networks in support of the GOP nominee as well as shape legislative agendas that could rally Republican voters in the next cycle.
Plus, most of the new governors — as well as the state legislatures — will have sway over the redistricting process, one of the biggest prizes to come out of the Nov. 2 midterms.
“That’s why the governor’s (seat) is so important at this particular time” said Jerry Shuster, political communication professor at the University of Pittsburgh. “It’s a critical time for both parties and they know that.”
Governors can help shape congressional districts for the benefit of their party’s incumbents and challengers; for Republicans, this would mean upping their chances at a congressional takeover in 2012 if they fall short next month. This process also can have an indirect effect on the presidential race. Avella noted that a boost in the number of Republican-friendly congressional districts could give more momentum to GOP candidates, and in turn rally more GOP operatives and money to turn out the vote for the presidential nominee.
While Obama would not have to worry in most states about the shape of congressional districts — presidential electors are divvied up based on the popular vote in each state — the individual districts come into play in Maine and Nebraska. Those two states have a hybrid system where the votes in each congressional district factor into which presidential candidate wins their electors.
More importantly, a study released at the end of September showed that blue states stand to lose about a half-dozen districts while red states stand to scoop up about that many as a result of the redistricting process.
The analysis from Election Data Services projected that Texas, a GOP stronghold, would gain a whopping four congressional districts. New York, a Democratic powerhouse, would lose two, according to the data.
Shuster said the impact of those shifts on the White House race depends on a host of factors. If the economy starts to turn around, it’s a “limited” issue, he said. But if Republicans field a strong candidate and the economy stagnates for another two years, “then it has the possibility of having an impact on the outcome of the election.”

By no means, DO NOT STAY HOME on Nov 2nd.
But I predict a Democratic Wipeout!
Hope you’re right Foxwood.
Personally, I’m enjoying the Obama dance to save his ass.
I wish Obama the best–a nice, long, quiet retirement as soon as possible. If that’s not possible, then a quick and speedy trial.
If you think Barry Sotero Obama is going to retire, your crazy.
Carter and Clinton are still out there espousing the progressive ideology.
These people never give up.
They are insistent on destroying this country’s place in the world.
I suspect Hillary may step down from SOS to campaign for 2012.
It wouldn’t surprise me.
Never underestimate the Clinton machine.
They laugh at us, and use us to obtain what they want, with no remorse.
Vote their asses out and keep them there.
Good evening my Fellow Patriots 😀
Presidential entourage books all 570 rooms in 5-star Taj Mahal Hotel… It’s good to be King.
President’s team has booked the entire the Taj Mahal Hotel, including 570 rooms, all banquets and restaurants. Since his security contingent and staff will comprise a huge number, 125 rooms at Taj President have also been booked, apart from 80 to 90 rooms each in Grand Hyatt and The Oberoi hotels.
US President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle will be extremely busy in Mumbai, upon landing on November 6 for a two day India visit. As the world’s most powerful man and his wife zip around the city visiting the 26/11 memorial on Marine Drive, the National Centre for Performing Arts (NCPA), Mani Bhawan and other locations in south Mumbai, the security obviously will be water-tight .
Adding to the Obamas’ busy schedule is Michelle’s likely visit to Kamathipura, where she will meet commercial sex workers on the invitation of an NGO. The highprofile visit is likely to inconvenience the citizens, as there could be a complete clampdown on traffic on some main roads of south Mumbai and sanitisation of buildings flanking them.
The Obamas will stay at the Taj Mahal Hotel, and his itinerary practically means Marine Drive will be shut for vehicular traffic on the day of the President’s visit, while buildings flanking it will be sanitised with security personnel manning them until Obama has left the place. Same would be the case with Obama’s visit to Mani Bhawan and Michelle going to Kamathipura.
An officer with the security establishment said, “Several other arterial roads in south Mumbai will also see restricted traffic movement, with tight security all around. The Obamas are not expected to schedule any engagements in the night due to security reasons.”
Since Obama is expected to arrive in the afternoon on November 6, and will travel by road to the Taj Mahal Hotel, the entire stretch from airport to the hotel will be under heavy security. The officer said, “There will be no vehicular movement on Western Express Highway at that time. Traffic on roads leading up to the highway will also be stopped. All buildings flanking the entire stretch will be sanitised. However, there is no threat from the snipers as the President will travel in a bullet-proof car with 4.5-inch thick sheets, which are impenetrable for any gun.”
Obama’s personal security staff itself will be huge, and it has already started making its own arrangements in Mumbai. “A team of secret service agents has already arrived, and has surveyed the areas of his stay and the roads and places on his itinerary,” the officer said.
To ensure fool-proof security, the President’s team has booked the entire the Taj Mahal Hotel, including 570 rooms, all banquets and restaurants. Since his security contingent and staff will comprise a huge number, 125 rooms at Taj President have also been booked, apart from 80 to 90 rooms each in Grand Hyatt and The Oberoi hotels. The NCPA, where the President is expected to meet representatives from the business community, has also been entirely booked.
The officer said, “Obama’s contingent is huge. There are two jumbo jets coming along with Air Force One, which will be flanked by security jets. There will be 30 to 40 secret service agents, who will arrive before him. The President’s convoy has 45 cars, including the Lincoln Continental in which the President travels.”
Since Obama will stay in a hotel that is on sea front, elaborate coastal security arrangements have been made by the US Navy in consonance with the Indian Navy and the Coast Guard. “There will be US naval ships, along with Indian vessels , patrolling the sea till about 330-km from the shore. This is to negate the possibility of a missile being fired from a distance,” the officer said.
The President will be accompanied by his chefs, not because he would not like to savour Indian cuisine, but to ensure his food is not spiked.
US President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama are scheduled to land in Mumbai on November 6.

In truth, Sami, He would love to own it. Maybe Soros can make a deal with him.
If this is a true story then I would think it absolutely incredible given our present economic situation. Imagine the COST of all this.
I’ve heard this news piece. I’m sure Soros has a place for Obutthole after his usefulness is over. We may never know if it’s a good place or a bad place.
Obama Appoints 2 “Devout” Muslims to the Dept. of Homeland Security
Posted on Sat 23 Oct 2010 04:58:11 PM CST by Iam1ru1-2
The word “Devout” sometimes means “Radical”. There is no way of knowing the personal history of these Muslims, new appointees to Home Land Security. Some Muslims have indicated they want nothing to do with “Radical Muslim” beliefs…..indicating they want to mainstream into American Society. Many other Muslims have indicated they belong to the “Brotherhood”, and wish to replace American culture and law with Muslim culture and law (these Muslims are a clear and present danger).

at least juan williams served a valuable purpose the other day. albeit a liberal, what happened to him (getting fired) tells us all that we are all under attack for freedom of speech/expression.
what’s gonna happen next? are folks gonna get arrested for wearing tea party tshirt?
SamI
I got strong sneaking suspicion that the Obama admin are going to prohibit folks from going into voting places w/cell phones & cameras.
You heard about what they are doing at the VA hospitals? They got socialist doctors who are electioneering on the veterans. You & I both know that they are NOT allowed to push politics on veterans. And if the vet dont talk nice about Obama or watch foxnews, the doctor gets a funky ass attitude. Man….. something going down real funky at the VA. And lord help you if you wear a teaparty tshirt. And they don’t want vets to bring cell phones, yet the doctor is allowed to have cell phones.
Good Morning my Fellow Friends and Patriots.
Good Morning Arlene, VF, and Foxwood.
Arlene give fair warning to all Vets out there. It is not a good time in America to be a Veteran.
States Weigh Letting Noncitizens Vote
PORTLAND, Maine — Like his neighbors, Claude Rwaganje pays taxes on his income and taxes on his cars. His children have gone to Portland’s public schools. He’s interested in the workings of Maine’s largest city, which he has called home for 13 years.
There’s one vital difference, though: Rwaganje isn’t a U.S. citizen and isn’t allowed to vote on those taxes or on school issues. That may soon change.
Portland residents will vote Nov. 2 on a proposal to give legal residents who are not U.S. citizens the right to vote in local elections, joining places like San Francisco and Chicago that have already loosened the rules or are considering it.
Noncitizens hold down jobs, pay taxes, own businesses, volunteer in the community and serve in the military, and it’s only fair they be allowed to vote, Rwaganje said.
“We have immigrants who are playing key roles in different issues of this country, but they don’t get the right to vote,” said Rwaganje, 40, who moved to the U.S. because of political strife in his native Congo and runs a nonprofit that offers financial advice to immigrants.
Opponents of the measure say immigrants already have an avenue to cast ballots — by becoming citizens. Allowing noncitizens to vote dilutes the meaning of citizenship, they say, adding that it could lead to fraud and unfairly sway elections.
“My primary objection is I don’t think it is right, I don’t think it is just, I don’t think it is fair,” Portland resident Barbara Campbell Harvey said.
In San Francisco, a ballot question Nov. 2 will ask voters whether they want to allow noncitizens to vote in school board elections if they are the parents, legal guardians or caregivers of children in the school system.
Noncitizens are allowed to vote in school board elections in Chicago and in municipal elections in half a dozen towns in Maryland, said Ron Hayduk, a professor at the City University of New York and author of “Democracy for All: Restoring Immigrant Voting Rights in the United States.”
New York City allowed noncitizens to vote in community school board elections until 2003, when the school board system was reorganized, and several municipalities in Massachusetts have approved allowing it but don’t yet have the required approval from the Legislature, he said.
The Maine ballot questions asks whether legal immigrants who are city residents but not U.S. citizens should be allowed to vote in municipal elections. If the measure passes, noncitizens would be able to cast ballots in school board, city council and school budget elections, as well as other local issues, but not on federal or statewide matters.
The Maine League of Young Voters, which spearheaded the drive to force the question on the ballot, estimates there are 5,000 to 7,500 immigrants in Portland, roughly half of whom are not U.S. citizens. They come from more than 100 countries, with the two largest groups from Somalia and Latin America.
On a recent day in a small lunchroom at the Al-Amin Halal Market, a group of Somali men ate lunch and talked in their native language. A sign advertised the day’s offerings, including hilib ari (goat), bariis (rice) and baasto (spaghetti).
Abdirizak Daud, 40, moved to Minneapolis 18 years ago before coming to Portland in 2006. He hasn’t been able to find a job. Some of his nine children have attended Portland schools, and he’d like to have a say in who’s looking over the school system and the city, he said.
But between his limited English and the financial demands, Daud hasn’t been able to become a citizen.
“I like the Democrats. I want to vote for Democrats, but I don’t have citizenship,” he said.
To become a citizen, immigrants must be a lawful permanent resident for at least five years, pass tests on English and U.S. history and government, and swear allegiance to the United States.
Supporters of Portland’s ballot measure say the process is cumbersome, time-consuming and costly. The filing fee and fingerprinting costs alone are $675, and many immigrants spend hundreds of dollars more on English and civics classes and for a lawyer to help them through the process.
Allowing noncitizens to vote fits with basic democratic principles, Hayduk said.
Historically, 40 states allowed noncitizens to vote going back to 1776, but an anti-immigrant backlash in the late 1800s and early 1900s resulted in laws that eliminated their voting rights by 1926, Hayduk said.
“We look back in history and we say that was a bad thing that we didn’t allow African-Americans to vote, or we didn’t allow half the population, women, to vote, or we didn’t allow younger people to vote,” he said. “We’ve modified our election laws to become more inclusive to incorporate more members of society.”
The Federation for American Immigration Reform, a Washington, D.C., group that advocates tougher immigration enforcement, says voting is a privilege and should be limited to citizens.
“People who are legal immigrants to the United States after a five-year waiting period can become citizens and become enfranchised,” spokesman Ira Mehlman said. “But until then, being here as a legal immigrant is a conditional agreement, sort of like a trial period. You have to demonstrate you are the type of person we would want to have as a citizen, then you can become a citizen and vote.”

Sieg Heil und Guten Morgan fellow unAmerican Nazis!
It’s time to unfurl the Confederate Swastika and fire the cannon!
Good morning Sami!
Stayed up too late last night Arguing with Twitter Twits.
I mean Arguing with Idiots.
BRB. If I don’t shower, people don’t like me. 😦
GOOD MORNING Everyone!
Good Morning Arlene! Sam! Foxwood! and dear readers of the blog!
I have seen write-ups comparing the “Tea Partiers are insane” “Juan Williams and his Psychiatrist” “O’Donnell is Nuts” on and on and one being tied to the Soviet Union declaring political dissents as insane and forcing them in mental institutions to shut them up… The USSR’s “FEMA” camps
Good Morning VF. As you know America now has some ready and waiting 3,500 Fema Camps fully manned under the program REX84. I do not want to come across as a Conspiracy Theorist but how can one ignore such evidence?
The more I look into it the more I see a correlation to a future scenario in America. We are still under a State of Emergency order by President Obama for the Swine Flu Epidemic.
Yes, we are STILL under National Emergency. Where is the epidemic? Why are we still under this National Emergency?
The DEMs and GOP Establishment Elites have successfully painted “FEMA Camp” fears as irrational, crazy and nuts… get it? and most Americans bought it.
That is why I do not blog about FEMA camps directly…
The Socialists’ accusations of insanity against the Tea Party is their new attack meme because the “Your All RAAACISTS” just isn’t working out for them.
If your driving your car forward (toward Communism), you want to put your car in D for Drive. — Berry Obutthole
Does ObamaCare provide mental ward institutionalization for Tea Partiers?
Very interesting point of view VF, especially considering that last Thursday at my VA Hospital appointment they stated that they wanted to test me for Dementia. Perhaps Arlene’s comment is relevant here also.
VF says:

Good morning everyone! Afvet is right. Obama in not going to give up despite this election. It’s going to be full speed ahead with his destructive socialism agenda. I believe he wants to break this country and push the US into an all out civil war., declare Martial Law, suspend the constitution, and become a permanent dictator. It wouldn’t surprise me if some major event came up before the elections causing the elections to become suspended indefinitely. Remember these people are communists.
Tell them you are a Democrat and love Obama and watch them pat you on the rump with a big smile

Good Morning Tellit and you Sir, are RIGHT ON THE MONEY, imo
Good Morning Tellit!
I agree… and Soros has already started with millions going to NPR and subversive socialist orgs
This is their entrenched attack mode. They have not been “the establishment before” with the exception of Carter/Clinton who mostly tried to hide their marxism.
This is a a war for the minds… Good against Evil
It was not exactly a Pat on the Rump they gave me last month, but I will go with that for now.
Good morning Tellit!
Thank you for bringing us together!
Obutthole’s driving the car of Communism. Take the keys, put the car in reverse. Capitalism’s what made America great. Don’t let the Marxist tell you to continue to go forward toward Communism.
Call me a conspiracy theorist. I don’t care.The commicrats had to know there would be hell to pay on election day for making the American people swallow all the turds they were dropping in Washington on us like stimilus, healthcare, etc. All this is poll tested. They knew people were pissed yet they didn’t care.I believe there is something nefarious going on behind the scenes that will shock us all in the very near future. Read history folks. This is just another empire that is falling like the Roman, German, and Soviet empires have in the past. There is really nothing we can do but ride out the storm.”THOSE THAT IGNORE HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT.”
Starting Breakfast, Coffee and Breakfast Burritos this morning.
Let me catch a cat so I can start Purrrrr-colating.
The drive towards Communism that Obama proclaims is a Thelma and Louise ride off a cliff.
RIGHT ON ONCE AGAIN Tellit. You are fired up this morning Sir 😉
Here you go Tellit!
Wake up America, we are offering you the Truth:
Main reason Obama had his collage records sealed was to hide his activities as a member of Marxist/Leninist student orgs and his activities.
That a candidate can successfully hide all this required Republican Establishment Elites to submit to it… and in so doing sold out America.
NO F’ING WAY would Obama have escaped producing all his records and long form birth certificate and trips to Pakistan as a student if he were a conservative republican.
NO WAY
This is why I am not a GOP party hack… and why I back Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann. They are not part of the Good Ole Boy DC Club of DEM/GOP professionals playing the American people like a food source/
An interesting aspect of these last two weeks before the elections:
The internet in now like an interstate highway massively clogged up with political traffic… it is like a hail storm and folks are getting bewildered trying to keep up with it. I have been privately discussing this with some high profile bloggers I have made acquaintances with.
It’s like a hurricane with flying objects and is difficult to guage what to focus on… poll numbers? blow by blow cat fights between high profile opponents like Carly Fiorina v Barbarba Boxer? Reid vs Angle? Coons v O’Donnell?
Or focus on lamestream media hackery against GOP candidates and the Tea Party?
This deal with Juan Williams and NPR/FOX News helped focus people on a relevant stunning high-profile subject of Socialists’ dirty tricks and turning on Juan who is a LIBERAL.
Low profile House campaign fights are lost in all the internet noise…
I am studying all this and more as preparation for 2012 to gauge best practices for political blogging strategies. It is one of the reasons my blog-posting rate has been reduced lately… plus exploring new methods of leveraging the internet.
My multiple blogposts on Juan Williams garnered major spikes last week…
Election campaign time is an opportunity not to be wasted and it is like standing in a trout stream during spawning run time with fish literally jumping out of the water all around.
Sami,VF, Foxwood, and whoever else reads this blog. Thank you! I am truly sorry that all this happened. I was experiencing my own personal summer from hell when all this went down and this is part of the reason why I was absent from commenting in recent months. I wasn’t aware for quite some time about what happened until I went back through some old e-mails and saw the back and forth going on in the e-mails that were cc’d to me. I could only say that I would not have participated in the ugliness and would have remained neutral not choosing sides. We are all living in very stressful times and all have very short fuses right now. I know that of myself. It is hard to sit back and watch the country you love and grew up in become destroyed by the “traitors” we elected to keep this country prosperous and safe. I felt it was necessary to comment and try to bring old friends back together. I believe it is important for people to stick together in this time of turmoil. I am sure there were other e-mails that I didn’t see that were even uglier than the one’s I did see. Sadly, Some wounds run deep and cannot be healed. I understand that personally. I can only say to the one’s that can’t find forgiveness in their hearts. I hope you can find peace in your lives and “God Bless You And Your Families.”
Tellit
Good morning, all. “NO F’ING WAY would Obama have escaped producing all his records and long form birth certificate and trips to Pakistan as a student if he were a conservative republican.”
VF, if he’d been a conservative, the media & Obama’s attack jackals would’ve hounded him until he dug out his 1st grade vaccination certificate.
“Allowing noncitizens to vote fits with basic democratic principles, Hayduk said”.
Don’t know what democracy that is. Certainly ain’t part of ours. I posted ’bout Portland, ME last night once I’d re-hinged the jaw that dropped after I first read the story. Man, it’s way past time to do a Search & Destroy on these traitorous clowns (metaphorically speaking, of course).
On a brighter note. You a ll know that the liberal/ commies are going to pull out all the stops in this election. Every dirty trick in the book will be played. Gutter politics is the order of the day. It is important that all conservative voter go to the pols in november. I predict the voter fraud will be massive. Just remember the commies believe the “Ends Justifies The Means.”
The collective Socialist mindset is pretty clear… use every dirty trick in the book even if it is illegal and do it boldly… they are willing to go to jail if necessary to win. that is a fact…
The Socialist Congressional leadership arm twisted blue-dog DEM congressmen to support Obamacare and the Stimulus by threatening them with what was done to Juan Williams… and opposing them with new DEM candidates who would get campaign funding from the DCCC and the DNC and Soros, and UNIONS.
They are extremely well organized and fearless… and do not care about their reputations in the short run so long as they get voted in.
This Tea Party blew their ever loving minds and they spends millions sliming the Tea Party as extremists and dangerous and it works to a limited degree.
The only pushback I see is to fight fire with fire and use their weapons on them. I have started inserting extremist in front of Socialist when talking/writing about them… and using dangerous/insane/unstable/racist as adjectives for them.
Karl Rove is not our friend, folks… NOT OUR FRIEND.
Good morning Bob!
The Dems are trying to allow Illegals to have the “right” to vote. Illegals are in Washington state right now going door to door to get people to vote DemoCrap.
Good Morning Bob Mack,
You are on the ball as usual.
I should start calling them Demon-crats
My mistake, it’s Oregon.

The conservatives in the country have to put these propaganda outlets “OUT OF BUSINESS”
Boycott their sponsers, Don’t watch their shows Don’t buy their papers. CNN, CBS,NBC,ABC,MSNBC, PBS,NPR, etc. and all the liberal rag papers have to go!!!!!
Foxwood, the DEMS have done everything they can to enable illegal aliens to actually vote illegally and often.
This is how evil and desperate they are. They see the only force capable of stopping them… the Majority of American Voters who oppose them… thus will corrupt the voting process as much as possible to offset valid voters.
Unemployment is their worst nightmare and they created it in the first place and found blaming BUSH got them laughed at by using Alinsky Rules against them successfully.
Yes, I like using their rules against them. Ironic. 🙂
Folks, This is the most important election of our lifetime. If these corrupt traitors are not defeated this country will be forever changed and continue to keep spiraling down like an airplane in a steep nose dive. All eligible voters have to vote in this election. PERIOD!!! Make sure they get to the pols even if you have to drive them there yourself.
“The conservatives in the country have to put these propaganda outlets “OUT OF BUSINESS””
At least force them into re-entering the business of reporting facts & leaving their idiotic opinions to the editorial page where they belong. I’ve been reading the latest Stephen Hunter novel (I Sniper), wherein he calls the lib media web “The Narrative”: “The narrative is the set of assumptions the press believes in, possibly without even knowing that it believes in them. It’s not like they get together every morning and decide, ‘These are the lies we tell today.’ No, that would be too crude and honest. Rather it’s a set of casual, non-rigorous assumptions about a reality they’ve never really experienced that’s arranged in such a way as to reinforce their best and most ideal presumptions about themselves and their importance to the system and the way they’ve chosen to live their lives.”
I call the democrats “Commiecrats” They are nothing more than “closet communists” That don’t have the intestinal fortitude to come out and show their “true colors” however since the election of Obama some have been emboldened and have taken off their mask.
A vote for a Democrat, any Democrat, is a vote for Marxism. Do your homework before you vote. Vote for the Constitution.
“The Narrative”: “The narrative is the set of assumptions the press believes in, possibly without even knowing that it believes in them.

Like Sami said earlier… The red pill or the blue pill…
Bob Mack, These liberal idealogs live in their own world. Most of them get paid big bucks and are not suffering from this economic downturn like the rest of us. They are not intelligent enough to understand that if the socialism succeeds in this country they themselves will be taxed into poverty and their high and mighty ivory tower lifestyles will be over. They should do some investigative reporting for a change and contact some of the Journalists, News reporters, and other countrparts. that live in places like Venezuela and see what kind of standard living they have which I am sure is far below theirs. This might get them to change their tunes.
Do you love your freedom? Communism give you NO freedom. Name me a prosperous Commie or Socialist country.
I DOES NOT EXIST!
Capitalism is what made America! There is no other and has been not other country like the United States of America. We are the leaders of the world, but not for long on the path our President has chosen.
The DEM Socialists are on the run and wounded but not out of the game…
they know how to fight this kind of a fight and have done it for decades.
Your choice, follow Obummer off the cliff called Communism, or put your car in reverse.
People get ready, there’s a train a comin’

All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin’
Don’t need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
People get ready for the train to Jordan
It’s picking up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board ’em
There’s hope for all among those loved the most.
There ain’t no room for the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner
For there’s no hiding place against the Kingdom’s throne
So people get ready, there’s a train a comin’
You don’t need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin’
Don’t need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
I’ll be back later… being taken out to lunch!

Vote for them anyway, P.J. O’Rourke advises. The alternative is democrats, and they hate our guts.
Perhaps you’re having a tiny last minute qualm about voting Republican. Take heart. And take the House and the Senate. Yes, there are a few flakes of dander in the fair tresses of the GOP’s crowning glory—an isolated isolationist or two, a hint of gold buggery, and Christine O’Donnell announcing that she’s not a witch. (I ask you, has Hillary Clinton ever cleared this up?) Fret not over Republican peccadilloes such as the Tea Party finding the single, solitary person in Nevada who couldn’t poll ten to one against Harry Reid. Better to have a few cockeyed mutts running the dog pound than Michael Vick.
I take it back. Using the metaphor of Michael Vick for the Democratic party leadership implies they are people with a capacity for moral redemption who want to call good plays on the legislative gridiron. They aren’t. They don’t. The reason is simple. They hate our guts.
They don’t just hate our Republican, conservative, libertarian, strict constructionist, family values guts. They hate everybody’s guts. And they hate everybody who has any.

William Thomas “Tommy” Emmanuel AM (born 31 May 1955) is an Australian guitarist, best known for his complex fingerpicking style, energetic performances and the use of percussive effects on the guitar. In the May 2008 and 2010 issue of Guitar Player Magazine, he was named as “Best Acoustic Guitarist in the World” in their readers poll.[1]
Biography
Tommy was born in Australia in 1955. He received his first guitar in 1959 at the age of 4 – being taught by his mother to accompany her playing lap steel guitar. At the age of 7 he heard Chet Atkins on the radio. He vividly remembers this moment and says it greatly inspired him.[2]
By the age of 9, in 1964, he was a working professional musician. Recognizing the musical talents of Tommy and his brother Phil, their father created a family band, sold the family home and took his family on the road. With the family living in two station wagons, much of Emmanuel’s childhood was spent touring Australia with his family, playing rhythm guitar, and rarely going to school. The family found it difficult living on the road; they were poor and were often hungry, never settling in one place. His father would often drive ahead, organize interviews, advertising and finding the local music shop where they’d have an impromptu concert the next day. Eventually the New South Wales Department of Education insisted that the Emmanuel children needed to go to school regularly.[2][3]
After his father died in 1966, the family settled in Parkes. Tommy eventually moved to Sydney where he came to be noticed nationally when he won a string of talent contests in his teen years.[2][4] By the late 1970s, he was playing drums with his brother Phil in the group Goldrush as well doing session work on numerous albums and jingles. He gained further prominence in the late 1970s as the lead guitarist in The Southern Star Band, the backing group for vocalist Doug Parkinson. During the early 1980s, he joined the reformed lineup of leading ’70s rock group Dragon, touring widely with them, including a 1987 tour with Tina Turner. He left the group to embark on a solo career.
Throughout his career he has played with many notable artists including Chet Atkins, Eric Clapton, Sir George Martin, Air Supply, John Denver, Les Paul and Doc Watson. Eric Clapton, Chet Atkins, Les Paul, and Joe Satriani all say that he is the best they have ever heard which is a testament to his extraordinary abilities.[citation needed]
In 1994 he became a member of the John Farnham Band. Australian music veteran John Farnham invited him to play guitar next to Stuart Fraser from Noiseworks for the Concert For Rwanda.
Tommy and his brother Phil performed live in Sydney at the closing ceremony of the Summer Olympics in 2000. The event was televised worldwide with an estimated 2.85 billion viewers.[4] When performing together the pair will sometimes share and play just one guitar with each having one hand free.
In October 2002 he was invited to perform the Australian folk song Waltzing Matilda at a service at the Washington National Cathedral held for the victims of the Bali bombings.
In December 2007 he was diagnosed with heart issues[5] and was forced to take a break from his hectic touring schedule due to exhaustion, but returned to full-time touring in early 2008.
In late January 2010, having been deeply touched by the tragic 2010 Haiti earthquake earlier in the same month, Emmanuel announced[6] that he would be auctioning off three guitars, that he personally played and owned, on eBay, in order to raise money to donate to UNICEF in Haiti.
In June 2010 he was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia (AM).[7]
[edit] Musical style
Tommy has said that even at a young age he was fascinated by Atkins’ musical style – sometimes referred to as Travis picking – of playing bass with the thumb and melody parts with the first two or three fingers at the same time. This technique became the basis of Tommy’s guitar style.
While Tommy has never had formal music training, his playing ability has won him fans from all over the world. He is known to play percussion parts on the body of his guitar. As a solo performer he never plays to a set list and uses a minimum of effects.[4] He usually completes recordings in one take.
He frequently uses his left thumb to fret bass notes on the 5th and 6th strings as well as playing chords such as Am and E with just two fingers. He uses a thumb pick mostly, a flat pick or just fingers.
His main guitar is a small-bodied custom Maton EBG808, that is fitted with a pickup and an internal condenser microphone, to which he has given the nickname “Mouse” due to its quieter volume unplugged but massive sound when plugged into an amp. Two of his three main stage guitars, notably his signature TE1 Maton dreadnought, are battered and worn from his excessive playing and percussive techniques on them. He recently stated at a workshop during his annual festival, Tommyfest UK (2008), that all three of his stage guitars have been broken and repaired numerous times over the years.
[edit] Association with Chet Atkins
As a young man in Australia, Tommy wrote to his hero Chet Atkins in Nashville. Eventually Atkins replied with words of encouragement and a longstanding invitation to drop by to visit.[8]
In July 1999, at the 15th Annual Chet Atkins Appreciation Society Convention, Chet presented Tommy with a Certified Guitar Player award, an honor Atkins has bestowed on other guitarists.[2] This award gains its fame from being bestowed by Atkins himself, a widely recognized leader in guitar music. The award states: “In Recognition Of His Contributions to the Art Of Fingerpicking.” Tommy performs at the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society (CAAS) in July each year in Nashville.[9]
In 1997, Emmanuel and Atkins recorded as a duo and released the album The Day Finger Pickers Took Over The World, which was also to be Atkins’ last recorded album before he died.

After Dave Thomas left Kentucky Fried Chicken, he decided to start his own chain. He thought out of the box and decided he would make square hamburgers.
He then had a special machine made that ground out the square burgers. Just before he was to open his first store, the Burger Commissioner had to do inspections.
He was impressed with Dave’s first store, but he had concerns about shape of the burgers and that they did not conform to Burger Code.
He asked Dave Thomas, “Will it ground in circles?”.

If the WikiLeaks reports are right, they just proved Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.

Wikileaks proves WMD found in Iraq
Rick Moran
This is not surprising news to anyone not predisposed to call President Bush a liar about WMD.
Ed Morrissey:
In this case, the surprise isn’t the data but the source. Wikileaks’ new release from purloined files of the Department of Defense may help remind people that, contrary to popular opinion and media memes, the US did find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and in significant quantities. While the invasion of Iraq didn’t find huge stockpiles of new WMDs, it did uncover stockpiles that the UN had demanded destroyed as a condition of the 1991 truce that Saddam Hussein abrogated for twelve years.

I think the leaks can be turned around.
Here we go!!! The fix is in of course. Just let the non citizens vote along with the prisoners and dead people. Anything to help the commicrats.
Why don’t we just send ballots around the world and let anyone vote in our elections. F*ck these socialist bastards!
States Weigh Letting Noncitizens Vote
PORTLAND, Maine — Like his neighbors, Claude Rwaganje pays taxes on his income and taxes on his cars. His children have gone to Portland’s public schools. He’s interested in the workings of Maine’s largest city, which he has called home for 13 years.
There’s one vital difference, though: Rwaganje isn’t a U.S. citizen and isn’t allowed to vote on those taxes or on school issues. That may soon change.
Portland residents will vote Nov. 2 on a proposal to give legal residents who are not U.S. citizens the right to vote in local elections, joining places like San Francisco and Chicago that have already loosened the rules or are considering it.
Noncitizens hold down jobs, pay taxes, own businesses
, volunteer in the community and serve in the military, and it’s only fair they be allowed to vote, Rwaganje said.
“We have immigrants who are playing key roles in different issues of this country, but they don’t get the right to vote,” said Rwaganje, 40, who moved to the U.S. because of political strife in his native Congo and runs a nonprofit that offers financial advice to immigrants.
Opponents of the measure say immigrants already have an avenue to cast ballots — by becoming citizens. Allowing noncitizens to vote dilutes the meaning of citizenship, they say, adding that it could lead to fraud and unfairly sway elections.
“My primary objection is I don’t think it is right, I don’t think it is just, I don’t think it is fair,” Portland resident Barbara Campbell Harvey said.
In San Francisco, a ballot question Nov. 2 will ask voters whether they want to allow noncitizens to vote in school board elections if they are the parents, legal guardians or caregivers of children in the school system.
Noncitizens are allowed to vote in school board elections in Chicago and in municipal elections in half a dozen towns in Maryland, said Ron Hayduk, a professor at the City University of New York and author of “Democracy for All: Restoring Immigrant Voting Rights in the United States.”
New York City allowed noncitizens to vote in community school board elections until 2003, when the school board system was reorganized, and several municipalities in Massachusetts have approved allowing it but don’t yet have the required approval from the Legislature, he said.
The Maine
ballot questions asks whether legal immigrants who are city residents but not U.S. citizens should be allowed to vote in municipal elections. If the measure passes, noncitizens would be able to cast ballots in school board, city council and school budget elections, as well as other local issues, but not on federal or statewide matters.
The Maine League of Young Voters, which spearheaded the drive to force the question on the ballot, estimates there are 5,000 to 7,500 immigrants in Portland, roughly half of whom are not U.S. citizens. They come from more than 100 countries, with the two largest groups from Somalia and Latin America.
On a recent day in a small lunchroom at the Al-Amin Halal Market, a group of Somali men ate lunch and talked in their native language. A sign advertised the day’s offerings, including hilib ari (goat), bariis (rice) and baasto (spaghetti).
Abdirizak Daud, 40, moved to Minneapolis 18 years ago before coming to Portland in 2006. He hasn’t been able to find a job. Some of his nine children have attended Portland schools, and he’d like to have a say in who’s looking over the school system and the city, he said.
But between his limited English and the financial demands, Daud hasn’t been able to become a citizen.
“I like the Democrats. I want to vote for Democrats, but I don’t have citizenship,” he said.
To become a citizen, immigrants must be a lawful permanent resident for at least five years, pass tests on English and U.S. history and government, and swear allegiance to the United States.
Supporters of Portland’s ballot measure say the process is cumbersome, time-consuming and costly. The filing fee and fingerprinting costs alone are $675, and many immigrants spend hundreds of dollars more on English and civics classes and for a lawyer to help them through the process.
Allowing noncitizens to vote fits with basic democratic principles, Hayduk said.
Historically, 40 states allowed noncitizens to vote going back to 1776, but an anti-immigrant backlash in the late 1800s and early 1900s resulted in laws that eliminated their voting rights by 1926, Hayduk said.
“We look back in history and we say that was a bad thing that we didn’t allow African-Americans to vote, or we didn’t allow half the population, women, to vote, or we didn’t allow younger people to vote,” he said. “We’ve modified our election laws to become more inclusive to incorporate more members of society.”
The Federation for American Immigration Reform, a Washington, D.C., group that advocates tougher immigration enforcement, says voting is a privilege and should be limited to citizens.
“People who are legal immigrants to the United States after a five-year waiting period can become citizens and become enfranchised,” spokesman Ira Mehlman said. “But until then, being here as a legal immigrant is a conditional agreement, sort of like a trial period. You have to demonstrate you are the type of person we would want to have as a citizen, then you can

Voter fraud watch: They’re at it again
By Michelle Malkin • October 25, 2010 08:36 AM
Here we go again. Desperation plus the by-any-means-necessary credo plus a nationwide force of Alinsky avengers equals another recipe for voter fraud.
In Colorado, it’s Common Cause of Colorado, Mi Familia Vota Education Fund and the Service Employees International Union caught in an apparent scheme to foist some 6,000 shady voter registrations on the state:
A federal judge declined to force the secretary of state to reactivate approximately 6,000 new voters whose registrations were canceled under Colorado’s 20-day rule.
In a decision issued Monday, Senior U.S. District Judge John L. Kane denied a motion for a preliminary injunction that was requested by several labor and voting-rights groups.
When a new voter registers in Colorado, the secretary of state mails a nonforwardable notice of disposition that the voter’s registration has been received. If the notice comes back undeliverable in the mail, then clerks deem the voter’s registration inactive within 20 days.
Melody Mirbaba, an assistant attorney general, argued that the 20-day rule is designed to stop voter fraud and duplicate registrations.
In Arizona, it’s illegal alien amnesty-supporting, SEIU-tied Mi Familia Vota again and One Vote Arizona submitting massive, last-minute voter registrations. The race between rocket scientist Ruth McClung and open-borders radical Raul Grijalva is down to the wire. Maria Carvajal at Publius Pundit reports:
The Yuma Sun is reporting that two organizations — Mi Familia Vota and One Vote Arizona — submitted more than 3000 voter registrations in Yuma County, and more than 20,000 voters statewide. Even more, they have signed up 43,000 people statewide for the permanent early voter list.
What they didn’t tell you is that voter fraud on a massive scale could be taking place, ostensibly to help Raul Grijalva keep the congressional seat he holds by stealing the election.
Here’s what the article doesn’t tell you, by a source in the Yuma County Recorder’s Office:
* These 3000 voter registration forms were all dropped off at once by the one group on the deadline to turn in voter registration forms.
* Almost all of the registrations were for the Democratic Party, a statistical improbability at best.
* Today, these same 3000 newly registered voters — as a group — had papers dropped off at the Yuma Recorder’s office requesting to be signed up for the permanent early voters list… which means the ballots will be mailed early, with no accountability.
* The Yuma Recorder’s office is checking the voter registration forms and have found that already more than 65% of them are invalid due to the registrant not being a citizen, wrong/invalid address, false signature, etc.
Now, the question is: is voter fraud taking place in Yuma County… and is it taking place on an even bigger scale in Pima County?
So far, the partisan Democrat in charge of the Pima County Recorder’s Office, F. Ann Rodriguez, has been completely silent about any such activity, though certainly even just a few thousand votes could change the outcome of the race between rocket scientist Ruth McClung and boycotter Raul Grijalva.
In Washington state, it’s illegal alien amnesty-supporting OneAmerica Votes sending illegal alien canvassers out to drum up votes:
When Maria Gianni is knocking on voters’ doors, she’s not bashful about telling people she is in the country illegally.
She knows it’s a risk to advertise this fact to strangers — but it’s one worth taking in what she sees as a crucial election.
The 42-year-old is one of dozens of volunteers — many of them illegal immigrants — canvassing neighborhoods in the Seattle area trying to get naturalized citizens to cast a ballot for candidates like Democratic Sen. Patty Murray, who is in a neck-and-neck race with Republican Dino Rossi.
Pramila Jayapal, head of OneAmerica Votes, says the campaign is about empowering immigrants who may not feel like they can contribute to a campaign because they can’t vote.
“Immigrants really do matter,” Jayapal said. “If we can’t vote ourselves, we’re gonna knock on doors or get family members to vote.”
In Florida, it’s suspected absentee ballot fraud — from within a city commissioner’s office:
When police raided Daytona Beach City Commissioner Derrick Henry’s office this week and seized his computer, they say they discovered evidence of what election experts say has become a rampant, largely ignored and troubling issue in Florida — the widespread abuse of absentee ballots.
Police say Henry’s computer was used to obtain dozens of absentee ballots prior to the city’s Aug. 24 elections, in which he was re-elected.
The Daytona Beach probe started when an elections supervisor noticed that as many as 90 absentee ballots had been requested from two e-mail addresses, and that they came from a single computer. (It is illegal in Florida for anyone other than a family member to help in requesting an absentee ballot.)
Volusia County Election Supervisor Ann McFall said she grew suspicious “because 40 requests arrived in one batch on the night of Aug. 6, and another 15 the next day.
“The absentee ballots had no phone numbers on them, and my first concern was to get them in compliance. I emailed the sender and when I got no response checked with the Daytona Beach clerk, because all the requests were from Zone 5 and he didn’t recognize the address. Then I handed it over to the sheriff’s office,” she said.
Police tracked the computer to the office of Henry, the city commissioner from Zone 5, who was running for re-election — and who easily defeated his two opponents with 65 per cent of the vote.
In New York, FNC’s Eric Shawn reports on another absentee ballot scheme implicating the ACORN-tied Working Family Party and a ring of Democrat officials:
There are various allegations of possible voter fraud across the country, against both parties, but nowhere does there seem to be a more unusual case than in Troy, New York.
A special prosecutor investigating allegations of voter fraud, Trey Smith, is collecting DNA from the majority of the city council…all Democrats. Five city councilmen, including the council president, as well as four other city and county public officials and political operatives, have been ordered to or have had their saliva swabbed for DNA samples to compare to absentee ballots and absentee ballot applications that were allegedly forged.
The investigation centers on what has been called “a massive voter fraud scheme,” that involved absentee ballots for the Working Families Party, in September 2009. It has been alleged that Democrats tried to steal the primary election for city council and county legislature, by forging absentee ballots and ballot applications to ensure that their candidates also won the Working Families Party primary line.
‘No comment,” is what Democratic Council member Gary Galuski told us, as well as several other public officials who are under investigation.
In Texas, citizen watchdogs have joined True the Vote to monitor and strike back against election fraud in Harris County:
Talk about denial! A group of liberal activists is making the media rounds, assuring reporters and editors that election fraud is a fairy tale. Nothing serious, they assert, nothing to see here. Too bad for them that citizens in Houston, energized by the Tea Party movement, have formed a group called True the Vote. Their hard work has demonstrated that, in some parts of the country at least, our election system is still infested with problems.
True the Vote is composed entirely of volunteers — hundreds of them. They have pored over election records in Harris County, Texas, looking for signs of fraud. And they have found plenty. Indeed, their initial research into only a very small portion of the voter registration records has led them to ask the U.S. Justice Department’s Voting Section to conduct a federal investigation.
In a letter asking for an official inquiry, True the Vote discusses potential widespread forgery in voter application forms. For instance, it seems from the applications that someone suspiciously signs the letter “J” with a quirky “3” inside the loop. The “3” shows up in multiple signatures for different voters with the names Jenard, Jamark, Jamarcus, and Jones.
True the Vote reports that at least four noncitizens have been registered to vote in Harris County. The group provided Justice with the actual voter registration forms where applicants marked “NO” to the question: “Are you a U.S. Citizen?” The group also provided the voter registration numbers of these confessed noncitizens. Yes, astonishingly, Harris County registered them to vote anyway. They are now on the rolls and able to participate in the upcoming midterm elections.
The Help America Vote Act of 2002 was supposed to stop this from happening. But this federal legislation is only as good as the Justice Department’s willingness to enforce it. If Harris County is registering noncitizens, then it is violating numerous provisions of federal law, including those that prohibit the registration of foreigners to vote in federal elections.
True the Vote uncovered other types of fraud as well. The group forwarded to DOJ seven voter registration forms with applicant names different from the signature name. For example: Ta’mackayn Harrison’s application was signed by “Bra Kelly.” Jason King’s was signed by “Jemma Noel.” Yet Harris County inexplicably approved all of these applications. Jason King, aka Jemma Noel, is now on the voter rolls in Houston.
The citizens group also found multiple registrations for individual voters. For example, True the Vote provided the Justice Department government documents showing that at least four persons, including Jose Gomez and Victor Nickerson, had registered to vote multiple times successfully.
These problems were found by True the Vote in just a small sampling of the county’s voter registration list.
In Kentucky, there’s not much detail, but state and FBI officials are investigating voter fraud in Breathhitt County.
In Illinois, disgraceful officials have reportedly been caught lying about the status of military ballots while DOJ twiddles its thumbs.
In Ohio, it’s Cincinnati schools under fire for busing students to vote and handing them Democrat-only sample ballots:
Three van loads of Hughes High students were taken last week – during school hours – to vote and given sample ballots only for Democratic candidates and then taken for ice cream, a Monday lawsuit alleges.
The complaint was made by Thomas Brinkman Jr., a Republican candidate for Hamilton County auditor, and the Coalition Opposed to Additional Spending & Taxes against Cincinnati Public Schools.
“They plan to bring four more high schools (to vote) this week,” Christopher Finney, COAST attorney, said Monday after filing the suit.
It seeks a temporary restraining order to prevent school officials from participating or helping students participate in partisan politics during school hours or with school property or employees involved.
These cases underscore the need for voters to put secretaries of state into office who will protect election integrity from radical left-wing groups. I’ve said before we need candidates like Kris Kobach, running for secretary of state in Kansas on an anti-fraud, anti-corruption, anti-ACORN platform, in every state in the nation.
In the meantime: Vigilance plus citizen media plus the willingness to be sued for blowing the whistle equals the best defense for voter fraud. We must all be voter fraud watchers now.
If I give you the impression that I am fired up and pissed off today. You are Go^^ammed right!
Tellit,
I got something to sooth the savage beast, check out the vid from last night and the one below it.

I’ve been writing a new blogpost… almost done.
Good Morning Tellit!
Morning y’all.
Well, another day, another bunch of Democratic lies, distortions, and calumnies to wade through. Hope for the best, expect the worst: maybe a few of the perps behind all the voter fraud get to do some jail time. I expect the disturbed clan of Shabazz “poll watchers” to surface again in Philly. They’re too damn dumb to lay low.
Please forgive my manners! Good morning everyone!
Let’s stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.
Good morning Bob!
Good morning Tellit!
Yeah. Betty McCollum didn’t say Under God. What’s with that?

Foxwood, It’s called trying to dismiss God and remove any reference to God from a Christian nation. God always has the last word! The f**kers will find out on judgment day. Lucifer is waiting for them and he has bacon on the barbie. That if course is their bacon just waiting to be cooked.
Bob Mack, Due to the proliferation of camera phones that produce instant videos will make it difficult for these sh*t bags to get away with a lot of shenanigans. I hope these sh*tbags do get caught and thrown in jail.
Ennie meanie chilli beanie

You are right, Foxwood.
