Republican U.S. House Staffer Pleads 'No Contest' to 5 Election Fraud Counts
The year of GOP election and voter fraud continues...

No doubt Fox 'News' is going wall-to-wall with this today, so you've got no need for us to tell you about it, right? ... What? They're not? Huh. How strange.

Well, then, if you haven't heard, Lorianne O'Brady, a former staffer to Congressman Thaddeus McCotter (R-MI) has pleaded "no contest" to five misdemeanor counts of election fraud yesterday, related to creating and submitting fraudulent signatures in a failed conspiracy to qualify McCotter for the ballot this year.

O'Brady is just one of four of top McCotter aides who were charged last month with a total of 36 federal felony and misdemeanor election fraud-related counts in the alleged ballot petition forgery scheme. McCotter abruptly resigned last July as the scandal began to emerge.

That's one election fraud criminal down, just Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Ann Coulter, James O'Keefe and many others to go. What? Fox hasn't yet told you about them either? We're here to help, with another reminder of 10+ recent cases of election and voter fraud by very high-profile Republicans…

Again, as I have pointed out to those republicans I have to deal with on a daily basis, the people that are comitting election fraud are republicans. Somehow Fox news has convinced them that there is such a thing as voter fraud despite there being no evidence of it's existence.

Who will be watching Ms. Kathy "Wait, I just found 7000 votes on my computer" Nickolaus on November 6, 2012? The fact that people like her and Karl Rove never get sent to jail REALLY pisses me off.

That when someone thinks that another person is doing something wrong, it's because they are capable of doing that very act themselves and probably already have.
