(24,411 posts)I saw a Freeper tell his pals that when they're at the polls--don't just sit there--have a clipboard and write on it and really get in there.
Yeah, you freak--disrupt the elections and bring in all of your hate and paranoia into the polling stations and stand there and jot down your awesome observations--Ohhh, such a proud patriot!
What a JOKE!!!!
Poll workers who have been working these polls for YEARS and DECADES will be rolling their eyes at these fools. Reminds me of Spongebob when he wanted to be the HALL MONITOR!!
I think this whole thing will be a total wash. These guys with their clip boards will see nothing and and document nothing--because voter fraud is so freakishly rare. 99 percent of Americans who vote are just responsible, average citizens who love their country.
They will have NOTHING to report. They are fools who needed to feel important, so they signed up with "True The Vote" because Glenn Beck cast a magical spell on them and convinced them that they would be important and historical patriots who would be so extra special if they did so.
OMG! Please do not worry about these idiots. Most of them will leave their polling place because they are bored. Nothing is going to happen. Nothing to report. These tea-party jerks are half-witted dumb asses--compared to the quality people who walk into those polling places to vote. They are not going to listen to these fools or be bothered by them.
If anything, the story will be that these True The Vote hall monitors will make a nuisance of themselves and get themselves thrown out.
This really is ridiculous.
