At soe point there has to be a reaction from the mighty 545, what to do about a problem that just sort of keeps going without even an eye brow being raised.

The permissive pacifism knows no limits, even when confronted with wrong doing.
Talk about something that needs to change.

Here in Colorado the Republicans are trying to suppress the college vote. An elected local Colorado Springs official went to Colorado College and told students if their parents claimed them as dependents then they could not vote here. Funny tho...he failed to send the same letter to the Air Force Academy just a few miles north of CC and also has a large population of out of state students.

So after the election was stolen from Dems in 2000 and 2004, the Reps are now "on the lookout" for election mischef?

Give me a break.

Tony

to a partisan position?
Can an issue just simply be addressed on the basis of right or wrong?
I grant you in this permissive pacifist, give everybody a break, loan everybody money whether it is right or wrong, don't offend anybody society....there just doesn't seem to be much room for right or wrong.

Well I believe...Dem or Repub...white or black or what ever....:mad
if it is wrong....it is wrong. It needs to be fixed.

Used to be a saying two wrongs don't make a right.

Prosecute, persecute the wrong doers I don't care who they are.
It is called stand up and be counted.

There is no need for a party first attitude...it simply adds NO VALUE,,,,is a waste of time.

It is we the people not us and them as some continue to insist.

No one seems to need to know what party a paramedic is before they try to save ones life.....THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vote fraud has been around forever. It's just that the 24-hour news cycle can report on it more accurately these days. And with the presidential election being so bitterly contested, examples make for attractive news stories. It's certainly not right, but I'd guess it's no worse than it's been in elections for the last 100 years.

Heck, I come from a home town--Chicago--where the instructions to the electorate as election days approach is always "vote early and vote often".

Khuana and others who are trying to make this seem like politics as usual.

I have been voting since 1960, and while there has been corruption and claims of corruption all the time (and to your point Kahuana..Chicago was the super star ), but I dont recall any kind of national registration scandal to approach this. I dont know how anyone can justify this with claims of....it is always there, or the Republicans stole an election..fair is fair......all americans should be upset and outraged.

There are a ton of rumors on this particular situation about who paid, etc., but at this point only rumors and we should wait until it all sorts out, but if the posts I read are "justifying" for any reasons, I would have to violently disagee.

In California Louis Farrakhan's boys showed up on college campus where my nephew attends. They presented him with a paper about Obama and asking him for a donation. Thankfully, he politely said no thank you and went on his way.

I don't think anybody asking for donations or asking them to vote for either campus should be on campus. I'm not against ROTC at all, but political candidates need not apply in my opinion.

I am going to bump this thread because I cannot believe that folks have come on here in the name of "Vote fraud has been around forever", or "they did it also" to defend something so basically wrong that is NATIONWIDE.

I got to believe that others, not matter your party or affliation, have got to be upset at such an attack on our country at this level.

Students of the academy are considered military personel.....they can vote on any military installation............

And the perpetrators should be tried, convicted and put in the slammer for a good long time. That's true whether it was people who worked for ACORN or others that were trying to suppress votes or any others that did something different. I guess i'd be amazed if there weren't many, many prosecutable incidents of vote fraud all over the country, involving partisans from both parties. Unfortunately, there always are.

I don't believe that anyone was excusing a violation pf a right we all hold dear. At the same time, I think it's ridiculous to assert that either candidate for the presidency actually planned, authorized or even knew about vote fraud if it was done by anyone within or even associated with their campaigns. If they were behind it, they should be prosecuted and incarcerated, if appropriate.

Wow! What a thought. That we might actually have one or both of the candidates for the presidency possibly being the perpetrator of a federal felony. I choose not to believe that.

My post had nothing to do with either party or either candidate. To have,not a localized situation, but a NATIONAL situation confronting us is just plain terrible and I was speaking of those who either ho-humed it as always happening (NEVER ON THIS SCALE OR THIS ORGANIZED), or simply put the party banner out there.

I did not read or hear about charges concerning either candidate as you suggest....I did read about a connnection between one candidate and the organization that is perhaps behind this....now, come on...that is normal dont you think ? This should be reported but not mention that connection ???

I believe ACORN registered 1,500,000 previously unregistered voters. 545 would be less than a quarter of a 1 percent. In normal registrations, how much voter fraud do they find - I would guess that much - but then, that would not make a story, would it.

Not sure where you got your number of 545. In the story below ONE MAN WAS PAID TO REGISTER 72 times and that is one man.

You can read about the Missouri investigation and where it stands on numbers as of now with a lot lot more to go...

In Houston as indicated by the article below, so far 4,000 people on the rolls that are DEAD.

And this article...

"A grassroots organization that grew out of 1960s radicalism was Friday at the heart of a political firestorm over alleged voter registration fraud in the run-up to the US presidential election.

The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now -- better known by its acronym ACORN -- boasts gathering the names of 1.3 million mostly non-white, low-income voters in 21 states in the most successful voter registration drive in US history."

Goes into detail on other states.....many many states are now cropping up on a daily basis.

THUS IF YOU ARE TRYING TO PASS THIS NATIONWIDE FRAUD AS OF AS EXPECTED ERROR OR SOMETHING, YOU ARE ON THE WRONG TRACK !
