I'm Supporting The "Help Republicans Vote Act", You Should Too !!!
Edited on Mon Jun-05-06 10:05 AM by newyawker99
From Bob Cesca, on HuffingtonPost...

<snip>

When the 2000 election was in dispute, this concern was voiced by everyone. The Bush campaign carried their obviously moonbat-ish conspiracy theories all the way to the Supreme Court in 2000 and had scores of lawyers and operatives on the ground in 2004 declaring Democratic fraud. Moonbats.

...

I'd like to propose new legislation. I call it the Help Republicans Vote Act. Like the laughable Help America Vote Act I've given it a deceptive name. It doesn't actually help Republicans vote. Here are the provisions of the bill...

1) Every wealthy Republican who hires illegal immigrants shall be stripped of his or her voting rights. This includes rich people who have similar names to said rich people.

2) Secretaries of state will be required to mandate their county boards of election that only one voting booth be available per Republican-dominant precinct. The booth will be moved from the usual polling places to street corners in a black or Latino urban neighborhoods.

3) One in every ten ballots will be displayed/printed in French and peppered with gay slang terms like "whitewash the back 40" and "kneeling at the altar". But in each election, ballots will include an initiative banning the French/gay slang ballots. So one in ten Republican voters will have to look at gay slang phrases and words in the French language in order to ban something that's both French and contains gay slang.

4) Touch screen voting machines will be owned and operated by George Soros.

1. I like it! If I were in the House, I'd vote for it. But since I'm a Dem,
I can't get elected.

2. Sweet! More from the HuffPo piece:
Edited on Sun Jun-04-06 08:55 PM by IndyOp
What's so horribly wrong with examining the results of an election and finding evidence of fraud -- electronic manipulation or other forms of chicanery? And how does that qualify anyone as loony, be they Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Senator Boxer, Congressman Conyers, Randi Rhodes, Thom Hartmann, or Mark Crispin Miller? Hell, it's not like they're expecting you to believe that Hillary Clinton had Vince Foster whacked, or that American G.I.s executed Nazi SS soldiers at Malmedy in 1944 (the exact opposite happened, O'Reilly).

We're just saying, Hey! Our basic democratic right to vote is being undermined by corporate and political criminals, and here's how.

<snip>

Don't worry. I'm not going to spend inches here enumerating the specifics of what happened. Instead, read Kennedy's investigative report here. Seriously. Read it and admit to yourself: if the evidence summarized by Kennedy had come from an election in, say, Iraq or the Ukraine, you'd draw the obvious conclusion that foul play had swung an election against the true will of the people and an electoral coup had taken place. You know you would. In fact, it actually happened in the Ukraine in 2004 -- with the extra-moonbat-esque use of disfiguring poisons.

On edit: The last paragraph of the article --

So if you don't want to get behind the very simple task of truly investigating allegations of fraud in the last several elections (hell, some Democrats might go down in the process, too), or preventing private corporations from influencing our vote then either you don't care about our Constitution or you'd be cool with passing my Help Republicans Vote Act.

:applause:

6. I particularly love the name: Help Republicans Vote Act
Deceptively named to do the opposite of what the name states. A technique invented and perfected by the Republicans!!

9. yeah, let them ALL go vote in IRAN!
of course they'll need to stay for a year to establish residency... they're all so anxious to invade Iran to spread democracy in the region, let them start the invasion. Maybe they can just vote democracy in, religious fundamentalism is already controlling politics there, so they should be comfy.
