Why is it so important to register everyone? Many people don't care, don't know, don't have time. Why should we stop them from not voting? Let people who care, have political knowledge, and the time do the voting. ACORN wants to manipulate the know nothing, sub prime, crack smoking, welfare abusing crowd.

Talk about a non-issue. If this is all McCain has, he's finished.

Acorn has been involved in some of the largest perpetrations of voter fraud in our nation's history. If Obama has connections to them then it should be examined and is a legitimate issue. You can always tell when there's more to something when you have lefties going out of their way to tell you it's not important.

Why is it so important to register everyone?

Democracy requires the consent of the governed. Maybe I'm crazy, but I think the active consent of people who vote makes a better country than the passive consent of people who don't bother.

One of the things that makes me glad to be a Democrat is the party's emphasis on getting people to register and vote. The more voters, the better.

Acorn has been involved in some of the largest perpetrations of voter fraud in our nation's history.

Such as what, exactly? The fact that ACORN occasionally uses workers who cheat ACORN out of money on fake voter registrations is not fraud. Particularly when ACORN catches many of them.

Oh fuck,

First, I'm not a lefty.

Second, the lefty's cried about Diebold when they were getting their ass kicked. The righty's now have their own crying point.

Take your frustrations out somewhere else. A gym, for instance.

FWTHOM:

I don't recall reading anything that ACORN is targeting any potential voters for either party. If you have proof, please provide it. Otherwise, you are doing nothing but throwing out wild, unfounded accusations. Or, is that your intent?

Lee- by "lefties" I meant the author of the article. Go fuck yourself.

"Such as what, exactly?"

Three ACORN employees pleaded guilty, and four more were charged, in the worst case of voter registration fraud in Washington state history. More than 2,000 fraudulent voter registration cards were submitted by the group during a voter registration drive.

In 2005, the Virginia State Board of Elections admonished Project Vote and ACORN for turning in a significant number of faulty voter registrations. An audit revealed that 83% of sampled registrations that were rejected for carrying false or questionable information were submitted by Project Vote. Many of these registrations carried social security numbers that exist for other people, listed non-existent or commercial addresses, or were for convicted felons in violation of state and federal election law.

RCADE,

What you advocate is some sort of zombie democracy that would be easy to manipulate.

"Otherwise, you are doing nothing but throwing out wild, unfounded accusations."

What else do you expect from him Lisa???

That is what right wing wackos do on TV, on radio, here, even when you have to speak to them in person.
They don't care that it is bull shit, only that it might help them win an election. Apparently this time it will fail but they will keep throwing new lies out hoping to find one that works.

"The fact that ACORN occasionally uses workers who cheat ACORN out of money on fake voter registrations is not fraud."

I'm not talking about cheating ACORN out of money. In many states it is illegal for a voter registration worker to be paid on a "per voter" basis. Yet still, in those same states, ACORN employees are being caught submitting thousands of phony voter registrations. Your attempt to excuse their conduct as mere moneymaking is bullshit.

"What you advocate is some sort of zombie democracy that would be easy to manipulate."

No that would be what Republicans have been trying to create for decades.

Lisa--Obama and ACORN are tied at the hip.

They also have endorsed Obama--publicly.

And every time some illegal vote is allowed to be cast cancels out your legitimate vote.

And this is fraud and worse.

La di dah from the left--after all the BS from Diebold--which is true--there has to be a paper trail.

Just ask David Iglesias, the former U.S. attorney of New Mexico about Republicans desire for prosecutions with or without crimes and/or evidence.

From all I hear, ACORN is nothing more than a youth works program. A kid gets paid to register to vote, and another kid gets paid to fill out the registration form. Then, repeat 100 times. And two kids manage to extort hundreds of dollars from Democratic Party coffers. Not bad for one day's work.

Funny when you think about it. You righties need to have more of a sense of humor about this. Why deal drugs, when you can get some of your fellow high school dropouts to earn money from home by writing the names of fictional characters on a piece of paper.

Is it true the Dallas Cowboys can vote in every away city they play in?

The more voters, the better.

Sal: Do you support obama's stance on a ban on stem cell research?
Obama supporter: Yes, I don't agree with none of that stuff.

Yep- everyone deserves a vote!

ALL TALK NO ACTION like MOST of the RIGHT WING HATE PROPAGANDA.

THEY love to make grand statements like "Acorn has been involved in some of the largest perpetrations of voter fraud in our nation's history."

Says who dumbass?!? TYPICAL ditto head BS!

Truth is this the amount of fradulent voter submissions by ACORN is an EXTERMELY small proportion of the TOTAL number of registrations they submit.

ADD to that the FACT that Acorn CANNOT refuse to turn over the card to the BOARD OF ELECTIONS even if they believe it to be fradulent! (A fact MR. FUCK YOU TIGHTY RIGHTY would have KNOWN if he had bothered to actually READ the article before he started entering his ditto head comments!)

TRUE FACT - the GOP is not happy to see more voters get registered at ANY TIME in HISTORY!

This is a matter of a few votes here or there. The DIEBOLD issue is a far different matter.

It is VERY hard to see how a handfull of fradulent votes compares with the MASSIVE FRAUD potential of having software back door keys to the VOTING MACHINES. THAT is what worries people about DIEBOLD.

"La di dah from the left--after all the BS from Diebold--which is true--there has to be a paper trail"

I love ya Murph, you know that...however...not once when this site was plastered with Diebold threads have you ever stood against what they were doing.

Now, because you believe Obama is hand holding Acorn you're crying foul??

Yep, this is funny as hell. I would consider it a serious matter if someone actually cast a vote, but now that you've pointed out this is nothing more than kids being kids, I'll sleep better. Between this and kids stealing political yard signs, I would expect drug dealers, gang bangers and teen pregnancies to disappear.

Voter registration fraud is not the same thing as vote fraud. Even if a group submitted fake registrations -- ACORN is not allowed to reject registrations, as the link explains -- that does not mean those fakes will be accepted by the registrar. It does not mean those fakes will vote.

There's no widespread evidence of vote fraud in this country. It's a boogeyman the GOP brings out every four years, but there's no factual basis.

Farkle Lisa--

I have always stated that Diebold--without the paper trail was BS and had to change.

I am also for voters to show ID at the time they vote.

The optical machines are fine--if there is a question, they can go back and recount the votes.

Obama paid ACORN $800,000 out of his campaign NOW to go register voters and look what that money has lead to!

"Voter registration fraud is not the same thing as vote fraud."

Voter registration fraud is how voter fraud occurs. Getting a fake name on the rolls is the primary hurdle - at that point (since no ID is required) a person can simply show up, say they are that fake person, and vote.

"There's no widespread evidence of vote fraud in this country."

I think you should do some reading.

I don't remember acorn having the government power to issue registrations. So at worst they are guilty of wasting some civil servants(who's job it actually is to check legitimacy)time.

Lisa--It's from John Fund--!!

So if it's not from the Daily Ko's it can't be true??

And I guess it's OK to use ex-felons to collect registrations?

And in the meantime: diebold is actually commiting real count fraud at the actual polls...

Here Lisa--go pick a link

Show me where acorn has somehow usurped government powers to register people or go away...

Murphy you ignorant slut (SNL reference)!!!

There is no law against ex-felons working for a living is there? Anyone can work in this country if they are willing and lucky enough to find a paying job.

They may have a harder time getting a job APPROVING those registration cards but the job of collecting them is open to anyone.

-The more voters, the better.

That's just more people that the GOP has to convince to vote against their own economic self-interest by engaging them in the Culture Wars.

Give the GOP a break! Don't they do enough?

Axe--the ex felons served time for identity theft!

That's just more people that the GOP has to convince to vote against their own economic self-interest by engaging them in the Culture Wars.

It is a pretty good system if you think about it.

you guys set them up and we'll come in and close!!

:-(

Duly noted, Joe.

You son of a bitch.

"Obama paid ACORN $800,000 out of his campaign NOW to go register voters and look what that money has lead to!"

No he didn't, he paid them to get applications for voter registration filled out, which ACORN is then bound by law to submit. They flagged the ones that were suspicious. It is up to the Registrar of Voters to make sure they are eligible to vote and that there are no duplicate registrations.
Murphy turn off Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity for one week, it will make a huge difference in your life.

I think I would be embarrassed to be so easily manipulated by right wing talkers. If they told some of these folks that ACORN was really an organization from Mars they would be out carrying signs against aliens.

I think you should do some reading.

I do, every four years when Republicans make these claims. There's no evidence of meaningful vote fraud in this country.

Getting a fake name on the rolls is the primary hurdle - at that point (since no ID is required) a person can simply show up, say they are that fake person, and vote.

That's not correct. You have to show an ID to vote. Every time I vote here in Florida, I show my driver's license. It's the "photo ID" that isn't required.

Thank you danni. In other words acorn has no more power to register people than I do. It can only submit the paperwork to the government like I can..

Danni--lol--you just repeated my post and starting with---No he didn't...

And it's ok by folks that ACORN registers a guy 73 times--one guy?

Watch Danni stick up for that parade..

Rcade--Ohio doesn't require ID to vote!!!!!

That's not correct. You have to show an ID to vote.

Not in Wisconsin. When you have 8% higher voter turnout in Milwaukee County than there are voters of legal voting age, you have a problem.

I'm voting for Obama because.... ...... uh .....
because ..... I can.

If it's true that "People get the government they deserve" (attributed to Jefferson and Tocqueville), we're in for some big trouble.

The GOP has screwed up with scandalous behavior, outrageous spending, and forgetting who they work for.

But Obama, especially if we get a filibuster proof Dem senate, will be Jimmy Carter II.

Duck..

Rcade--Ohio doesn't require ID to vote!!!!!

The Secretary of State web site says you do:

"There's no evidence of meaningful vote fraud in this country."

Define meaningful. Does it have to be proven that it changed the outcome of a state before you start to care? Wisconsin routinely sees thousands of fraudulent votes, in Milwaukee alone there were thousands more votes than voters in 2004 and Kerry took the state by less than 10,000. This year ACORN is at it again, already having been caught submitting hundreds of fake names in Wisconsin, a state that refuses to enforce federal election laws by comparing new voter registrations to the drivers license database. If this isn't systematic vote fraud, I guess I need to ask what would suffice in your eyes.

"You have to show an ID to vote."

Not in Wisconsin.

ACORN registers over a million people to vote, and there are a few thousand cases of false registrations.

But hey, any scandal that keeps voters away from the polls is fine by the Grand Ol' Piggies.

What do they do in Wisconsin? A cheese breathalyzer?

It's fine with me for the GOP to talk about ACORN instead of economics. Every time they do, a new Dem voter gets their wings.

Remember the Florida and Michigan delegates? guess not.

It is absolutely amazing that anyone can defend ACORN - wait - it is absolutely amazing that anyone can defend bill errors - wait - it is absolutely amazing that anyone can defend rev. wrong.

Maybe ACORN could've advised Ann Coulter to register using her own address instead of her agent's.

"Every time they do, a new Dem voter gets their wings."

Yeah - seeing an organization run by liberals turn in thousands of fraudulent voter registrations across the country must really attract those undecided voters.

Eb is still stuck in the 90's. I understand even Clorox won't take out that kool-aid stain.

The dipshit ACORN organization and the invented controversy surrounding it provide the perfect diversionary fire so no one will question or remark on the GOP's disasterous handling of the economy.

Hey, I am seeing a pattern here.

Yeah, but lets talk about Pali....I mean economics.

"thousands of fraudulent voter registrations" (that are reviewed by voter registrars) vs 1.3 million valid voter registrations.

Now, Joe could do better than something like a .001 fake registration ratio, so maybe he should volunteer?
(i was using Vernon's calculator)

Democracy requires the consent of the governed.
And thats why ACORN turned in a voter registration for Mickey Mouse and voter registrations for the roster of the Dallas Cowboys.

Go Libruls. Why weren't the founders of our country concerned with 'everyones right' to vote in a presidential election?

"a .001 fake registration ratio"

We're talking about the people who get caught. If you think they find every single fraudulent registration, you have nothing to worry about. Go home today and pretend there is no voter fraud in America.

I understand even Clorox won't take out that kool-aid stain.

Corky using the term "kool-aid" to describe someone else other than herself. this from the most shamless political shill on the DR.

Some others here who won't accept any scruity whatsoever of Obama are getting close though.

What a hoot!

The founders weren't concerned about slavery or women's suffrage. Maybe they were wrong about some other things too, Cowboy.

I'm sure they're registered and their voices will be heard on Nov. 5.

"Hey, I am seeing a pattern here."

Yes, much ado about nothing but then that is all McBush has to run on.
Slowly the truth is emerging on ACORN and it sure as hell is nothing like the scandal Rush and Sean and the rest of the liars are attempting to create out of thin air. I think they blew it, they started this bogus scandal too early and it will be very well debunked by election day. They don't seem to be up to their usual level of election corruptions this year.

Cork,

Some states are so close in an election that thousands of fraudulent votes could make the difference.

Fraud is fraud.

-someone else other than herself

Misogynists who still use the feminine as an insult are well enough left in the 90's to re-fight the VRWC wars in their minds. Ah, the good ol days.

Why does ACORN target the stupid, the poor, and the black? It's not as if the Dems are missing any of those groups.

Danni,

How can you be so cavalier about election fraud?

You've been screaming about 'no paper-trails' (a point I agree with) for years now.

Is fraud OK if it benefits a Dem?

#74 | Posted by JeffJ

I suggest you reread the Blog God's posts on actual voter fraud.

Voter registration fraud is an incredibly inefficient way to effect voter fraud. The levels of participation required before a meaningful difference can be made at the ballot box is huge. And, I can't believe that it is being ignored that ACORN flagged the suspect registrations themselves. If ACORN is trying to perpetuate voter fraud, warning the registrars of possible fraud is probably a bad move. It's a waste of resources to focus on that sort of voter fraud when there are so many more effective ways to perpetuate electoral fraud, such as intimidation and tampering.

Actually Cork,

The feminine insult is pretty funny when it is applied to guys IMO.

Plus, it gets Boyd's panties in a knot.

"And thats why ACORN turned in a voter registration for Mickey Mouse and voter registrations for the roster of the Dallas Cowboys."

If someone turned in an application with those names they had no choice but to hand it in to the voter registration office but that doesn't mean that Mickey or Dallas got registered dummy.
I used to hate it in class when I was a kid when the teachers slowed everything down to the learning pace of the dumb kids, I still hate it, seems exactly like this on this issue and many others.
Seems those of us with a brain have to try and educate the dummies over and over, repeating everything so many times because of their slow learning pace. Very frustrating especially when the try not to learn on purpose.

ACORN registers people the same way I ended up with 23 JC Penny credit cards, giving out free gifts.

Cork,

PS - Playing the "misogonyst" card is unbecoming.

Sheesh! You are starting to sound like an Obamaite!

I wonder what the voting precincts do with all those no-show ballots....you know, the ones secured by ACORN operatives in their "get out the vote" campaigns? You don't suppose they just pitch them in a trash can do you? Hmmmmm, I would bet the farm that a good many of those Democrat registered no-show ballots wind up in the ballot box? Whatcha' want a bet?

I wonder why it's the Democratic party that opposes requiring voters to present a photo ID before being allowed to vote? You don't suppose such ID's might nullify ACORN registered voters? Naaaaaah, couldn't be!

Yeah....sure...it's about Democracy, and everyone having a voice!

In a fucking pig's eye!

"
Danni,

How can you be so cavalier about election fraud?"

Be specific Jeff, election fraud is the theft through computer hacking, ballot rigging, etc.

Voter fraud is what right wing talkers are pretending ACORN is guilty of, but in reality very few fraudulent votes have been case due to the type of fraud they are accusing ACORN of. This is a scandal created out of thin air, and one that has been ongoing for years. On the back page is David Iglesias the fired US Attorney who lost his job because he would not bring fraudulent prosecutions to court against ACORN. He had the cases investigated thoroughly and there just was not crime to prosecute but the administration (Rove) wanted them prosecuted anyway, he refused, he was fired. Read his interview on back page.

Misogynists who still use the feminine as an insult

my apologies. I really thought you were a female. didn't mean anything by that.

Imaging for a moment that one of you Rtards actually had the spine to go out and get a job. The only job you were qualified for and could find was a canvaser for Acorn. You swallow your pride, get in the van and they dump you in a mixed race/white trash neighborhood.

You go up to the first door and ring the bell. Nanc answers, says she'd like to register and you hand her the reg card. She fills it out claiming she is Minnie Mouse.

You are forbidden by law to tear up the card, you must turn it in to your supervisor. Someone in Acorn can and probably will flag it as possibly fraudulent, but they also are forbidden BY LAW from tearing it up and MUST turn it in to the state voter registration office.

Of course you will be too busy down at the local cemetary filling out cards to boost your take home pay to bother ringing any doorbells anyway.

I used to hate it in class when I was a kid when the teachers slowed everything down to the learning pace of the dumb kids,

Another amusing aspect of ACORN, is how many of their registrants won't be showing up on election day, because they don't exist. All those hundreds of thousands of voters, and only about 25 will show up.

That is, unless the Dems can take delivery of about 125,000 cartons of Newports, for immediate distribution.

looks like you people that are still crying about the 2000 election being rigged would want to find out if this is true.i like the guy who signed up 72 times and demanded a cigarette each time some acorn person came around,wonder if he will go and vote for nothing.

Should I be concern with ACORN. Yes! Why am I concern - they have a history of being dishonest. Voting is very special. To lie or cheat is something which I can not put up with.

Thanks Americanunity I no speak good. But I know who I vote for...

This ACORN dustup is nothing more than a GOPiggy attempt at voter suppression.

ACORN hires people to go out and get voters registered.

Some of these people are jackoffs who submit phoney names.

ACORN has to submit all the cards it collects, and has even pointed out some of the bogus ones to officials.

The bogus attempts at registration are a small percentage of the overall registrations submitted by ACORN.

Do GOPiggies really believe "Mickey Mouse" is going to show up to cast a vote on election day?

Of course not.

What they don't want is non-GOPiggy voters turned up.

End of story.

FOREST GUMP EXPLAINS MORTGAGE BACKED SECURITIES

Mortgage Backed Securities are like boxes of chocolates. Criminals on Wall Street stole a few chocolates from the boxes and replaced them with turds. Their criminal buddies at Standard & Poor rated these boxes AAA Investment Grade chocolates. These boxes were then sold all over the world to investors. Eventually somebody bites into a turd and discovers the crime. Suddenly nobody trusts American chocolates anymore worldwide.

Hank Paulson now wants the American taxpayers to buy up and hold all these boxes of turd-infested chocolates for $700 billion dollars until the market for turds returns to normal. Meanwhile, Hank's buddies, the Wall Street criminals who stole all the good chocolates are not being investigated, arrested, or indicted.

and I hope that EVERY ONE goes to your excelllant link and reads in THE FIRST FUCKIN PARAGRAPH

ALTHOUGH 40 % were thrown out

THATS ALMOST HALF IF my calculations are correct....

and remember that the houston chronicle is ALSO TOTATLY IN THE TANK FOR OBAMA and used that headline on purpose.

so READERS OF THE RETORT.
make sure you read the link first.........

"TOTATLY(sic) IN THE TANK"

ROFL!

Tanked allright.

Registrar Paul Bettencourt says a lot of time is wasted processing duplicate applications.

thats right elcid

looks like ABOUT HALF THE TIME......

and that fast typing, not a sign of drinking......

gotta go

McCain has some balls saying this after Al Gore got Fucked in Florida by Bushes asshole brother "JEB" and a Dipshit brainless moron by the name of Katherin
