Where was this sentiment from the Repubs after the election was rigged in Bush's favor. Hanging chads in brother Bush's state, victory announced for Gore before Fox News suddenly announces the opposite. And thousands upon thousands of voters asking for an investigation that never happened because the petitions were not signed by a senator. You are right, there should be some strict security at the polls, but the ghetto polls aren't the ones I am concerned about! Watch out for the hanging chad yuppie vote!

Wake up -- The New York Times did a whole expose on ACORN. This outfit is notorious for corruption but you choose not to see it. I posted the links a few days ago, from the NYT and the Detroit Free-Press.

Must have missed them, where are the links? Specifically about fake voter registration.

OK point out where any of those articles say anything about Obama supporters.

First of all, I don't buy the accusations.

Second of all, anyone who's been paying attention for the last few elections knows that there huge problems with improprieties that often involve the Republicans.

Caging. Other voter purges. Touchscreen irregularities. Etc.

Finally, I say we seriously scrutinize every single vote cast. Make sure the registrations are legitimate and the votes that are intended are the ones that are counted. I don't care if there is a month delay between the election and the announcement of a winner. We need transparency and oversight and assurance that our elections are reliable.

Sigh, you said you wanted articles specifically on voter fraud. I supplied them. If you want MORE articles on the Obama connection, please go to my original thread on the subject. They're there. You're WAY too lazy and I'm tired of playing along.

Besides, I believe it's against forum rules to keep posting the same stuff on different threads.

They're not just "accusations." There have been a bunch of indictments and convictions in several states. I suppose you can refuse to read articles so you can hold on to your opinion but it doesn't make it all go away.

Oh FFS.

You need to take up Soduku or something, Fun2Day. I don't see a whole lot of fun in your posts...on any day. I see a whole lot of heavy-breathing, keyboard-slamming freaked-outedness. Maybe you should change your name to Fun2Morrow. Heh. A little humor there...you know...humor...as in...ha ha...okay, never mind.
