5. 6.6 ten thousandths of one percent!

Republicans are always worried about that number of people in the world.

To give you an idea of how small that number of people is:

535 people in Congress, House and Senate, is more than twice that percentage (6.6 ten thousandths of one percent) of people in the USA.

Such a small number that the spacecraft that landed on the moon would have landed twenty feet from where it landed.

GOP leader arrested by TBI for voter fraud

President of the Tennessee Federation of Republican Women arrested in Tipton County
Published August 25, 2006 by Ken Whitehouse

Shirley Ward, president of the Tennessee Federation of Republican Women, has turned herself in to authorities and has been arrested on charges of voter fraud by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, according to department spokesperson Jennifer Johnson.

Ward, a Tipton County resident, has been charged with knowingly voting in the wrong district for a Tipton County Commission race. While Johnson could not say which County Commission seat was affected, she said the winner of the race had won by one vote.

A call to the Tipton County Election Commission confirmed that the August 3 election for Tipton County Commission race, District 2, between John Arnold McIntyre Jr. and Billy Dan Huggins was decided by one vote. McIntyre was the victor in the non-partisan race.

Ward was elected president of the Tennessee Federation of Republican Women in 2005 and has a long history in Republican politics. According to her biography on the organization's website, she has served as deputy chairman of "W Stands for Women," county chairman for Senator Bill Frist and Van Hilleary and co-chairman for the Bush/Cheney campaigns of 2000 and 2004. She has also served as the financial director for TeamGOP.org, an organization that is run by her son, Jeff Ward.

She has also been named "Woman of the Year" by the Tipton County Republican Women's club and serves on the statewide "Tennessee GOP Development Council in 2005."

6. Texas is red

no Unions (I don't think), they are taking away women's right concerning her body, so why the purge?

The only reason, Latinos.

8. They are totally dependent on latinos for cheap labor.

They want to keep that labor cheap --by making sure they have no political rights.

9. A solution for a problem which does not exist.

Four people disenfranchise 600,000. Isn't that the Republican answer to everything?

Our legal system was designed so that someone guilty may go free so that no one innocent gets convicted.

But over the years Republicans in the name of victims rights accepts the innocent get locked up to prevent a guilty from going free. In the process locking up hundreds maybe thousands who shouldn't be. And in Texas even executing some.

At times I kind of think maybe Texas should pull its self from the U.S. and form its own country.

11. usefull meme for blocking the poor from voting...

... and even tho proven dramatically wrong for a dozen years, the owned megaphone media keep playing along.
It works well, and it seems to distract attention from other forms of election fraud.

So why would they back off?

12. What if the census count reflected the number of registered voters?

What if the census count went something like this:

1) if you are under the voting age, you get counted.

2) If you are at the age where you can vote, you only get counted if you are a registered voter?


There is precedent. Go back to when the Constitution was written in 1787.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-Fifths_Compromise

From the above URL:
"Delegates opposed to slavery generally wished to count only the free inhabitants of each state. Delegates supportive of slavery, on the other hand, generally wanted to count slaves in their actual numbers. Since slaves could not vote, slaveholders would thus have the benefit of increased representation in the House and the Electoral College. The final compromise of counting "all other persons" as only three-fifths of their actual numbers reduced the power of the slave states relative to the original southern proposals, but increased it over the northern position."

13. What's wrong is that it's a made up excuse

for Republicans to steal, cheat and lie.

[gopiscrap]

14. In my 9 years of working

for the State Elections Division, we had ONE, count 'em, ONE case of out and out electoral fraud and only 3 cases that were investigated of which ONE resulted in a conviction...that was for 27 state wide elections in which roughly milllion were registered. That's one conviction in 108,000,000 possible votes cast.

17. I would say that for every

(one) republican caught/arrested for voter fraud, 150.000 (republicans) should be purged from voting. Why can't anyone, ANYONE who reports the few that have been convicted of voter fraud name the nationality, or ethic group who committed the fraud?

it's time to start searching for the baby.
