CORN has major problems when CNN is trying to expose their fraud.

Brian Moller says ACORN has its own quality control, has fired workers in the past, including workers in Gary. Despite its past, the Obama campaign gave $800,000 to ACORN to help fund its primary registration drive, and ACORN has endorsed Barack Obama for president. The Obama campaign reacted this afternoon, saying, it is "committed to protecting the integrity of the voting process and said it has not worked with ACORN during the general election."

They're throwing out 5000 new applications.

Leaders of ACORN in the effected areas should be charged with voter fraud and sent to prison! The leaders are the proverbial fox guarding the hen house.

Let me get a harsh truth on record, posted at the end of a prior (and very long) thread:

Our knowledge of Acorn's interference in our electoral process is only partially known at this point, but even so it looks very bad. Election results in many battlegrounds will be close, and with Acorn's interference, very possibly invalid.

Our country is not a Banana Republic, though, and this cannot be tolerated. Fixing it, though, will take time, to uncover and cleanse the system of the fraud and all the fraudulent "voters."

Therefore the elections should be postponed, say, a month or two to allow time for a more complete investigation and de-lousing of the pool of "registered voters."

In addition, a Class Action Lawsuit by We, the People of the United States against Acorn and its supporters and affiliates should be initiated to bankrupt the fuckers.

[Link: littlegreenfootballs.com...]

Thanks for the link Sharm...excellent.

Polls always release results from a respondent pool, but they do not tell you - although the NCPP says they always should - what proportion of people agreed to answer the poll. If a lot of folks refuse to take part in the poll, that's an important piece of information. If Gallup is getting pushback from people they are trying to contact, they may be interpreting that in a way that may skew their political weighting.

Now one thing I do not buy, is the idea that Obama has 51% support. Not that he could not get that much in the vote, but if that is true it would mean that his support has risen six points in three weeks. What would cause that to happen? It's not going to come from the democrats, he already had their support. It's not that republicans would swing over and support Obama, the numbers tell us that and in any case, the parties are very partisan this year. And the independents have not changed in Obama's favor, in fact he's a point weaker with them than he was September 14. So what's driving the bigger numbers? The only explanation is that more democrats in the poll are being counted, which means that Obama's growth is artificial. In real terms, it means that republicans have become more passive, and the balance reflects a loss of McCain support on both tracks, his own support and Obama's.

They need to hammer this. Say things like "after the 2000 election, you'd think that we would have done something to clean up the process. Not just making sure every legal vote is counted, but also making sure that NO ILLEGAL VOTES ARE COUNTED." How anyone could get away with being in favor of voter fraud boggles the mind. Voter fraud enabling (no IDs) is part of the Democrat platform, right? Or is it so fundamental a principle to them it doesn't need enumeration in the platform?

Obama's Mathemagics

To kick off our show tonight, Mr. Obama will give 95% of American working families a tax cut, even though 40% of Americans today don't pay income taxes! How can our star enact such mathemagic? How can he "cut" zero? Abracadabra! It's called a "refundable tax credit." It involves the federal government taking money from those who do pay taxes, and writing checks to those who don't.

If a lot of folks refuse to take part in the poll, that's an important piece of information. If Gallup is getting pushback from people they are trying to contact, they may be interpreting that in a way that may skew their political weighting.

Now one thing I do not buy, is the idea that Obama has 51% support. Not that he could not get that much in the vote, but if that is true it would mean that his support has risen six points in three weeks. What would cause that to happen? It's not going to come from the democrats, he already had their support. It's not that republicans would swing over and support Obama, the numbers tell us that and in any case, the parties are very partisan this year. And the independents have not changed in Obama's favor, in fact he's a point weaker with them than he was September 14. So what's driving the bigger numbers? The only explanation is that more democrats in the poll are being counted, which means that Obama's growth is artificial. In real terms, it means that republicans have become more passive, and the balance reflects a loss of McCain support on both tracks, his own support and Obama's.

Anyone know if the Flyers game is on national TV?

(I think Palin was in MN or WI yesterday. Thus not rooting for the Phillies in person, but I'm sure she was in spirit.)

Funny. I suddenly really want some pie.

re: #58 jorline

Welcome, ELm. I agree with your analogy. Five years ago I lived on the Texas/Mexico border. Thirteen years of watching the politics in Mexico and how it affected us has me convinced about the parallels.

This is a mirror election to me, we have the populist "messiah" Vs. the Conservative, in 2006 we had our enemy "hugo chavez" trying to help Lopez Obrador, we were so close in having a friend of hugo chavez next to our borders, you guys have no idea how close it was, my own family in Mexico was so afraid of that happening, we were spared.. Thank God!

We CAN NOT let it happen here either.

No, J Street. "Obama's Jews" (using the term "Jews" loosely). The ones who got Palin dis-invited from the anti-Ahmadinnerjacket event.

No. That's what they do in banana republics. The election day is set by law. And can you imagine the whining?

So you'd rather risk an unfair election than delay?

The whining will come from the Bushitler people.

If the "star" is a Liberal, then....yes, it's illegal.

If the "star" is a Republican, then....it's free speech.

Which reminds me. I gotta get a gun before the government take it away.

You're going to get a gun so the government can take it away? But if you don't get the gun in the first place, the government won't have to come to your house to take it, and you'll save the taxpayers some money. See how this socialism thing works?

This financial meltdown caught our government by surprise. If our own finances come as a surprise, imagine more difficult situations, like Iran's nukes. When these idiots say "Iran is XX months away from a nuclear bomb", I think "how stupid do you think we are"?

To protect America we have to assume Iran is already nuclear or will be literally tomorrow. Common sense.

With the threat of nuclear terrorism, I do not think government can protect us. I think we have to take steps to protect ourselves.

See the previous thread. It looks like that Iranian cargo ship was a big dirty bomb to be set off near Israel.

Sanity Check:

How come no one brought up a probability.... that the markets are reacting to a possibility that the United States may have a socialist, leftist government (just think the power triumvirate of Obama, Pelosi and Reed) for the first time in history? That would be a major game changer.

All this talk by Barack Hussein Obama regarding the class warfare, taxing the "rich", evil corporations", the distribution of wealth can not instill confidence among the business class and the investors, and they are reacting. With the US market being dominant globally, what you have abroad is a domino effect.

If McCain wins, the markets will bounce back, if Obama wins - we're in for one wild ride. Last time the world went through a similar economic situation, we had Hitler and WWII with a Holocaust.
