Irony of the Month:US Rep "Stupid Sue" Myrick's Loyalties

Thu Mar 22, 2007 at 02:18:33 PM PDT

Does anyone see the irony in this?  

Rep Myrick flubs in her dramatic attempt to capitolize on right wingers' xenophobia....

US Rep Myrick is going to pull her account at Bank of America because of its credit card that illegals could use.... She announces with a flourish that she will <move her account to a bank that I is more suitable, that doesn't cater to those dad blained foreigners..   </p>

Guess she didn't have her staffers check into it very carefully..cause look at the next step "Stupid Sue" makes.....

The October Surprise has been sprung - on James Webb.

James Webb's last name has been cut off of the ballot in Alexandria, Falls Church and Charlottesville Virginia -
thanks to a voting machine company tainted by partisan ties to the opposing political party.

What else is wrong with the machines that we can't even see?

Neat trick, eh?

Proposed Voter ID Act Pulls Rug Out From Seniors

Sat Sep 23, 2006 at 03:57:39 PM PDT

Senior Citizen Abuse Alert!
Voting Seniors are fixin' to have the rug pulled straight out from under them come election time.

Congress is set to decide new requirements of citizens before you can go cast your ballot.
These requirements could very well cost you money, time and a lot of effort. Citizens will have to produce documents that many of us do not have on hand

HR 4844, the Voter ID Act, if it passes in the Senate - will disenfranchise millions of senior citizen
voters in our country.
Most seniors will not have the documentation needed to PROVE that they are citizens.

Tom Paine Magazine calls HR 4844 the Voter Fraud Fraud. Lots of detail about why this legislation is so bad.

The House passed the bill Wednesday afternoon. Now it moves to the Senate. If the senate betrays seniors and passes it, it will go into effect in 2008.

But We have to stop it NOW.

Alert: California Popular Vote Law Kills Voters' Say in Elections

Sat Sep 09, 2006 at 12:42:12 PM PDT

Dr. Rebecca Mercuri sent out an email today about another scheme that destroys election integrity - the California Popular Vote legislation.

In effect - the California legislature has been convinced to that each state should give ALL of its electoral votes to the person who wins the NATIONAL popular vote.

Ok, if you don't get the problem with this, please read on -

If anything, you'd think they'd give the electoral votes out in PERCENTAGES equal to the percentages voted for each of the candidates in THAT state.

But basically what this law does is ensure that the states really have NO say in who wins the election.

PA Voters' Dirty Write-In Votes & Strategerie for Activists

Sat May 20, 2006 at 08:09:39 AM PDT

Strategerie for activism takes creativity. I was inspired,yes inspired by a news article aboutvoters in Pennsylvania using the new touchscreen features to write in dirty curse words. First this made me laugh, some of the words were so nasty, and then it gave me an idea - "Why not use the write in feature to "vote" for paper ballots?" Clearly voters needed a way to go on record about this, since the media and public officials seemed to ignore them. So - here is what we can do...
