Is the GOP trying to steal the election by purging voters?

Conservative can't see the facts truth or reality, so why would anyone expect you to see the problem?

Voter fraud is the excuse given by the Grand OBSTRUCTION Party for the requirement of Photo ID, but every citizen who signs up to vote must provide ID,and their signatures are on file The statistic in almost every state is that the supposed voter fraud is so small as to be almost nonexistent. and it is being done to disenfranchise certain groups of Democratic voters from their Constitutional right to vote. Moreover, it is being done just before the 2012 election.

We have all read anecdotal cases in every state of people who have voted for years and are now barred -- not because they aren't eligible but because they don't have the proper photo ID. Who are these people? According to a 2006 survey by the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law, individuals who do not have government issued photo identification include:

** 11% of voting-age population, or as many as 21 million people.
** 18% percent of Americans over 65.
** 25% of African Americans.
** 15% of low-income voters

It is obvious that ID requirements would disproportionately affect the elderly, the young, the poor, and racial and ethnic minorities. At the federal level, only 24 people were convicted of voter fraud between 2002 and 2005. At this rate, Americans are twice as likely to be hit by lightening as to have their vote canceled out by a fraudulent cast vote. The Grand OBSTRUCTION Party is purposefully taking U.S. citizen's Constitutional right to vote and have a voice in their own country. Almost all of those voters vote Democrat, and they have done this right before the 2012 election. Just how far down in the slime will the GOP go to steal the 2012 election?

THIS COUNTRY HAS NEVER REQUIRED VOTERS TO HAVE VOTER ID CARDS BEFORE EXCEPT DURING THE DAYS OF SLAVERY WHEN JIM CROW LAWS REQUIRED POLE TAXES, TESTS, AND ANYTHING ELSE THEY COULD THINK UP TO DISENFRANCHISE PEOPLE FOR POLITICAL GAIN. You keep talking about the Constitution, and the Amendments to the Constitution gave all citizens in this country the right to vote, and now the GOP is inventing voter Fraud to take those same voting rights away with the ploy of voter fraud all to take democrats off the voting rolls to try and win the 2012 election through fraud and deceit. You can't even come up with the number of voter fraud convictions in what states to support your conspiracy theory. Your finding that facts for your lies are impossible to find aren't you half-wit? All all the rest of your crap ia just your attempt to justify something that does not exist (FRAUD) and you can't prove. If you could prove voter Fraud you would have, but all you can come up with you Gaping Primate is excuses.

It's "a made-up problem invented by GOP operatives," Robert Koehler, a self-termed "peace journalist," snickered in the Jan. 5 Huffington Post.

Regarding ballot hijinks, Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz chuckled: "There is almost none."

But recent news is not so funny. One probe caught on tape how easily anybody can vote on behalf of dead Americans. Elsewhere, the total ballots cast by the dead exceeded the winning margins in several high-profile elections.

These cases confirm the urgent need for all voters to prove they are alive and to correctly identify themselves via photo ID — just as Americans do on non-election days.

James O'Keefe, the conservative video journalist whose hidden-camera sting operation doomed the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), struck again during the New Hampshire primary.

O'Keefe's organization, Project Veritas, dispatched three videographers to the Granite State. On Jan. 10, they visited precincts in Manchester and Nashua and asked poll workers, one by one, if their voter rolls bore the names of several deceased people.

Believing that O'Keefe's collaborators were those registered, the poll workers handed out 10 ballots, never once asking for a photo ID.

"Live Free or Die," a poll worker reassured one investigator she thought was Reynold Caron, who died Oct. 14, 2011. "This is New Hampshire. No ID needed."

O'Keefe's men immediately gave back each ballot and insisted that they wanted to leave each precinct and return with a photo ID, although none was required. O'Keefe's team members never cast these ballots.

They returned them, unmarked, to precinct workers. All of this is available on videotape at ProjectVeritas.com.

New Hampshire Democrats seem unconcerned that their voter rolls contain the names of dead people and, absent ID rules, fraudsters conveniently could vote the ballots of the expired. Instead, Democrats want to indict these whistleblowers.

"They should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, if in fact they're found guilty of some criminal act," Democratic Gov. John Lynch told WMUR-TV.

Republicans, however, consider this deadly serious.

"Despite the governor's veto of the photo ID bill last year, the House will begin again this year to restore confidence in our elections by passing legislation to require a photo ID," its speaker, Republican William O'Brien, said Jan. 13.

Following Project Veritas' revelations, Granite State legislators recently began debating two photo ID bills.

Meanwhile, South Carolina's attorney general, Alan Wilson, informed the U.S. Justice Department on Jan. 19 that 953 ballots had been cast by dead voters in recent Palmetto State elections.

Democrats can giggle, but 953 is a potentially game-changing number of votes.

Recall that Willard Mitt Romney originally won the Iowa caucuses by just eight votes, only to have a closer count reveal that Rick Santorum actually prevailed by 34 votes.

After an indecisive November 2008 election, Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., eventually won a final recount in which he defeated GOP incumbent Norm Coleman by 312 votes.

And 537 ballots gave George W. Bush Florida's electoral votes and, consequently, the White House in 2000.

Thus, 953 haunted ballots could have reversed any of these races. Perhaps they did.

The easiest way to disenfranchise the dead is to require every voter to show photo ID. Those who lack identification should get it for free. Reasonable accommodations can be made for the infirm.

Let's not hear liberals' scratched record about how mandating a photo ID for voters is step one on the road to lynching. If true, then demanding a photo ID at America's airports would make the TSA equivalent to the KKK.

Liberals' oft-cited claim that blacks are too befuddled to possess or acquire photo ID is pure racial profiling. Just how lame do they think black Americans really are?

ID cards would help cleanse America's increasingly soiled voting system. Photo IDs also would allow dead people to rest in peace rather than rush to the polls every Election Day.

"Remember: demographic trends do not favor the Republican Party.

You seem to want to skirt around the Voter ID Fraud scam, and just talk about ID, and where ID is required bull sh*t. When I registered to vote, I filled out an application form and signed my signature, and they sent me a voter registration card and a precinct where I would vote. When I voted at the precinct, I signed my signature so they could match it up with my signature on file before I could vote. I voted this way for over 50 years with never a problem

When I went in to open a checking account in a bank when I was a young man, I filled out a form, signed my name, deposited some money, and I was given a checking account, a checking account number, and a credit card with a $250 dollar limit. I signed an application form at Sears for my first credit card and showed them a payroll stub from a job I had at a Tradewell grocery store as proof of employment, and got a credit card cosigned by my parents and the credit card had a limited charge amount until my credit worthiness was established. That is where I gained more credit and credit cards as my credit worthiness was established.

I never had to show my birth certificate for any of those things. I also signed up for a Social Security card without showing my birth certificate. As a young man I either was drafted or joined the military branch of my choice. I volunteered to join the branch of my choice and served my country in one of our nations wars war for over 6 years. I never had to show my birth certificate for doing that either. I have donated blood before and nobody asked for my birth certificate, drivers license, or Photo ID.

We are in a near- depression created by your party, and millions of our citizens have lost their homes, jobs, retirements, and life
savings, and no money to access some of the missing documents required to get this new photo ID. 50 million of our citizens couldn't even get or qualify for basic health care because of preexisting conditions and the expense to obtain basic health care. Many of the elderly are in nursing homes or no longer drive, and most of the disabled do not have transportation or money to obtain all of the documents required to get the photo ID. College students use to be able to use their student IDs to vote, and many of them go to college out of state andw ill vote via an absentee ballot, so why do they need a photo ID? My state now votes entirely by mail, so why do I need one of these new Photo IDs to vote? I must put my signature on the outside of the envelope that I send my ballot in so that it can be matched against my signature on file. If I do not sign, then my vote won't count. Our military in foreign wars and countries vote by absentee ballots, so what good are photo IDs for them, and who do they show it to -- the mailman? This is the most hypocritical piece of crap excuse for stealing an election ever perpetrated on the American citizens, and your nuts if you think anybody but a Republican is buying it. the unemployment rate (25%) for young black youth and many minorities are the ones who do not have access to birth certificates or the other documents to obtain this new photo ID.

It is just 4 months until the election, and it took me over 2 to 3 months just to get a certified copy of my birth certificate in order to get a passport to take a cruise.

Funny thing is, the Republicans claim that this is all about voter Fraud, and yet, not one damn one of you can show a fact that voter fraud is a major problem in the U.S. It only became a problem when our first Black African American citizen became the President. If voter ID is such a problem, why didn't the Republicans try to fix it before, like four months before a Republican incumbent was up for reelection?

It is obvious that ID requirements would disproportionately affect the elderly, the young, the poor, and racial and ethnic minorities. At the federal level, only 24 people were convicted of voter fraud between 2002 and 2005. At this rate, Americans are twice as likely to be hit by lightening as to have their vote canceled out by a fraudulent cast vote. The Grand OBSTRUCTION Party is purposefully taking away a U.S. citizen's Constitutional right to vote and have a voice in their own country. Almost all of those voters vote Democrat, and they have done this right before the 2012 election. Just how far down in the slime will the GOP go to steal the 2012 election?

And let us not forget Pennsylvania Republican Mike Turzai, who gently crowed how the state's voter ID laws would ensure victory for Mitt Romney.

Sorry, but there can be little doubt that suppression- not just the black vote, by the way, but also youth, and Hispanic votes -- is a key goal of the attempt to shrink the votes for the Democrat party" Your party's history of fraud and fraudulent tactics is the cornerstone of the Republican party's tactics, But since you want to run this scam or con-game of suppressing people's votes, have I got a plan for you. If voter fraud is real and you still can't provide the facts to prove it, here is your solution.

"What if instead of suppressing a citizen's Constitutional rights to vote, we broaden the electorate? Curtis Gans. director of the aforementioned CSAE, believes the United States should adopt Mexico's ' system. wherein the government automatically issues every citizen a biometric ID card? Such a card, encoded with your personal information -- and with safeguards to protect your piracy -- would eliminate your unfounded fear of voter fraud whatever little there is. There would be no fraud because there would be no registration. Every eligible citizen would simply swiped their card and vote. And the GOP would then have to make its case before America in the fullness of its diversity, an electorate not being whittled down by artificial barriers and fraud and giving an advantage to the Republican Party as is being done now. SURELY THAT''S SOMETHING YOUR PARTY WOULD WANT, RIGHT????

Lastly, why aren't you commenting on the real solution where the government issues every American citizen a biometric ID instead of trying to disenfranchise American democrat voters in order to steal the election through Fraud? Your bullsh*t is the conservative's art of trying to make the idiotic sound sensible! what your party is trying to do is the most unAmerican ever perpitrated on the citizens of this country, and is also a violation of the Constitution that you claim to follow with such zeal. This is just another conspiracy theory like Obama's birth certificate, and the attack on Obama's health Care Reform. Your hypocritical comments about all of the places where you need Photo ID is just another one of your conspiracy theories, and its is pretty low in the slime of the gutter for the lies your now using to steal the election.

Conservatives are all fundamentalists with a top dressing of chaos and destruction. That is why they are the stupidest of Conservatives, T-Boogers, and reactionaries in politics and the most bigoted of obstructionists and domestic terrorists. When it comes to getting their hate on they are all of the same opinion: stop it, lie about it, distort it, obstruct it, flog it, dynamite it, and stamp the truth right out of it.

Republicans are afraid of the world, are a party of the resentful and are fear mongers. It makes one wonder if we will even be able to have a voice or be able to participate in our own country.

Have you not read the solution that will allow you to join the human race again bubba Monkey?

Voter fraud is the excuse given by the Grand OBSTRUCTION Party for the requirement of Photo ID, but every citizen who signs up to vote must provide ID,and their signatures are on file The statistic in almost every state is that the supposed voter fraud is so small as to be almost nonexistent. and it is being done to disenfranchise certain groups of Democratic voters from their Constitutional right to vote. Moreover, it is being done just before the 2012 election.

We have all read anecdotal cases in every state of people who have voted for years and are now barred -- not because they aren't eligible but because they don't have the proper photo ID. Who are these people? According to a 2006 survey by the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law, individuals who do not have government issued photo identification include:

** 11% of voting-age population, or as many as 21 million people.
** 18% percent of Americans over 65.
** 25% of African Americans.
** 15% of low-income voters

It is obvious that ID requirements would disproportionately affect the elderly, the young, the poor, and racial and ethnic minorities. At the federal level, only 24 people were convicted of voter fraud between 2002 and 2005. At this rate, Americans are twice as likely to be hit by lightening as to have their vote canceled out by a fraudulent cast vote. The Grand OBSTRUCTION Party is purposefully taking U.S. citizen's Constitutional right to vote and have a voice in their own country. Almost all of those voters vote Democrat, and they have done this right before the 2012 election. Just how far down in the slime will the GOP go to steal the 2012 election?

"Remember: demographic trends do not favor the Republican Party. As the Center for the Study of the American Electorate (CSAE) observed in 2008 report, the GOP is either out of contention or are seeing an erosion of support in New England, the mid-Atlantic, the West, the mountain states, the Industrial Midwest, and even part of the South. With its growing Latino population, even Texas may be lost to the Party before too many years. Within the next few decades white Americans, the only demographic subgroup from which the GOP draws significant numbers of voters, will be the minority.

So while the party posits these laws as a way of fighting supposed voter fraud -- nearly a nonexistent problem -- it takes little imagination to divine a more sinister intent. Sometimes it is so obvious you don't need an imagination at all.

Fraud and falsehood only dread examination. Truth invites it.

What is more frightening than any particular policy or ideology is the widespread habit of conservatives disregarding facts.

One can observe the real Conservative agenda just by watching what the do. You can then orget what they say.

People who think like a conservative cannot even conceptualize truth.
