I got so hopeful about all the unity behind the voting fraud story despite the fact that most of the country had swallowed the koolaid.

Now there are people who have done nothing but post to this board attacking a woman who despite her eccentricities and political missteps and possibly abrasive personality is still the only one who has made freedom of information act requests at numerous sites around the country.

This is not how the other side does it. It's precisely b/c of this senseless nitpicking and constant iconoclasm whenever any success is achieved that the other side always wins. Because the left attracts too many losers who are ultimately just against people who are successful, even if they're the good guys.

And no, if you donated to BBV.org they might not be using your money this very second, but jeez, no nonprofit ever does. The standard among nonprofits for the portion of the donation that goes directly to the cause and not to fundraising expenses is about 70%. Often it's as low as 10%. And that's not talking about how much get's spent on admin. costs, which is always a lot.

Harvard University has over 20 billion in the bank and is still hitting me up for money. What planet are these people on who are mad at BBV for asking for money like every single other nonprofit on earth does?
