Topic: The GOP Can Not Legally Help Stop Vote Fraud, No Joke

[Pandora]

Not strictly "The GOP"; more like the RNC.

My good friend Alan Vera of True the Vote told me long ago that we have a two party system: the Corrupt Party and the Stupid Party. To that fact, during the weekly True the Vote webcast, Catherine Engelbrecht related a meeting she had with RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, asking what the GOP would do about voter integrity. The answer?

Nothing. They aren’t legally able to. (I’m not joking.)

As part of a lawsuit settlement with the Democrat Party, the Gutless Old Party agreed to not engage in any voter protection initiatives. Two of the clauses read this way:

    (e) refrain from undertaking any ballot security activities in polling places or election districts where the racial or ethnic composition of such districts is a factor in the decision to conduct, or the actual conduct of, such activities there and where a purpose or significant effect of such activities is to deter qualified voters from voting; and the conduct of such activities disproportionately in or directed toward districts that have a substantial proportion of racial or ethnic populations shall be considered relevant evidence of the existence of such a factor and purpose;

    (f) refrain from having private personnel deputized as law enforcement personnel in connection with ballot security activities.

ACORN Whistleblower Anita Moncrief added that when she spoke at the Republican National Convention, she had to submit her speech to make sure nothing she said could be construed as violating the order not to assist voter integrity.

I now think the characterization “the Stupid Party” may be too kind.

Engelbrecht said to add insult to injury, the judge who signed the agreement has long since retired, but every single year comes back for the sole purpose of renewing the order for another year.

Moncrief pointed out during her comments [in the conference] that in visiting the Democrat advocacy groups in Ohio, they were organized, motivated and purposeful in getting out their vote as was witnessed by the long line of Somali and Ethiopian voters bussed in to polling places. When she visited the Romney campaign offices, she said there was utter confusion, many were just sitting around waxing about how the couldn’t wait to “Free Willy.” (ORCA was the name of the failed computer program the Romney campaign tried to use to “micro-target” volunteers to get out the vote where it was needed.)

It was down all day, and finally late in the day people were sent out with printed registration cards to go find people to vote.

Wasn’t I told by all the non-TEA Party Republicans that Romney was the best chance we had because he ran such great businesses and had the money to compete with Obama? Just asking.

Moncrief said one other thing of interest. When she visited random Ohio polling places, there was almost never a GOP poll watcher and always a Democratic one.

We wondered why the RNC wasn’t screaming bloody murder over the evidence of voting fraud? Of course, the RNC petitioned to get it changed this year but the Obama appointee denied it. Surprise, surprise.

Now you know.

And while True the Vote has done amazing things in bringing awareness to the issue of voter integrity, it is clear from the comments made tonight that they are just resigning themselves to the lost election and enormity of the Democratic advantage. And that’s not okay.

Obama only won by 400,000 votes in 4 states, all of which showed Romney ahead in the days leading up to the election, but loosing by a substantial margin, all of which have precincts that inexplicably went 99% for Obama and had voter registrations that exceeded their population, all of which have public statements of problems with voting machines changing Romney votes to Obama.

It is obviously up to We the People to do our job and hold the individual Secretary of State in each of these states accountable. Sacrifice at least reading the next four funny Facebook postings from your Aunt Freda and call/email and or petition these Secretaries here.

There's a link in the third paragraph that gives the backstory on the "settlement".

Alan West, the only man standing.

Is he?  Congress reconvened today and his opponent was present representing the seat.

But wait, the Pubbies must play by one set of rules the other side gets to exploit them, that's just the way it is, we cannot stoop to being like them, oh noes, can't have that now can we, yet, we can remain calm and win it next time!  Rah, rah, siss boom bah! Goooooooo, Pubbies!

FL certified all the winners, West not a winner, and unless and until challenges prove otherwise the moron in the lead gets to pretend it is over...

Concerning the subject of the GOP/RNC neutering itself
Alan West is the last man standing whether he wins in
court or not.

What the hell. Break the "law" and force the Democrats to defend this asinine provision.

[Glock32]

Allen West was another of the real conservatives with an E-GOP dagger in his back.  They redrew the districts in Florida to make his seat harder to win than last time. They wanted to be rid of him. Same with Michele Bachmann, who managed to nevertheless squeak by.

I think the article above is right, "stupid party" is too generous. There is collusion for the purpose of maintaining the Big Government status quo. Far too many Republican fossils are just fine with permanent minority status. They still have the trappings of their largely ornamental status in government, and that's what it is about.

I want to hear the death rattle of the whole damn lot of them as the chair is kicked out from under their feet.

Point of Order:
Allen West is still the lame duck Congressman from his district. The new congress will be sworn in come January, 2013.

Amending my statement to reflect press conference:

During a press conference this afternoon with newly elected Congressional Democrats, the group – together with Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi – applauded the defeat of Rep. Allen West R-Fla.

Pelosi introduced West’s rival Congressman-elect Patrick Murphy calling his election a “cause for celebration” for young people.

“I just defeated somebody you all may know, a guy named Allen West, you guys might have heard of him.” ” Murphy chuckled, as the Democrats around him applauded.

Yeah, seriously, that would take courage, something latter day Pubbies...hell, latter day Americans have little of...

Dontchya just love how there is no effort to find if the allegations are true, they are just automatically assumed false and the person suggesting them is a racist bastard who must be discarded immediately.

This is the GOP.

Tell me again all these votes in Philly all went 100% to Obama, tell me how that is even possible?!
