Familiar ‘Suppression’ Tactics: Republican Media Undermining Confidence in Election Process Through Wild & Baseless Voter Fraud Fear-Mongering

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


Media Matters: Like every election year, right-wing media are undermining confidence in the election process through baseless voter fraud fear mongering.

For the past several months, Fox News has hyped GOP accusations of voter fraud, no matter how little evidence exists to support them, and Bret Baier has promised that Fox will cover voter fraud allegations “in every show.” But Fox has failed to report on, or has dismissed and distorted, numerous accusations of voter fraud or intimidation carried out by individuals linked to right-wing groups and politicians.

How To Rig an Election: Stop The Racist, Biased Tea-Party From Counting The Votes!

From Alternet.org

Dear Friend,

Do you want the Tea Party to count the votes in 2012? With less than three weeks left until the election, many Secretary of State races in key battleground states hang in the balance. Whoever is elected now will be in charge of counting the votes for President Obama’s re-election.

Not surprisingly, the Tea Party has made Secretary of State elections a key priority. If they win, vote suppression, demands for excessive ID requirements and sheer hysteria would rule the day in 2012. Former Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris and Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell would fit right in!

You can prevent this debacle in 2012 by acting today to defeat Tea Party endorsed candidates for critical election positions. Here are just three examples:

   In Ohio, Tea Party endorsed1 Republican Jon Husted is running to take back this seat for conservatives. Husted would be a giant step backwards for this key battleground state.

   In Michigan, Ruth Johnson won the Republican Secretary of State nomination after courting tea party supporters.2

   In Iowa, Tea Party member3 and conservative Republican Matt Schultz is running to repeal Iowa’s innovative same day voter registration and other election reform.

Fight back against the Tea Party by donating to the Secretary of State Project
now.

You can make a difference in these critical races. Dollar for dollar, the SoS Project is one of the most effective political investments you can make. We run smart, targeted campaigns with proven results in key battleground states. By making a small contribution today, you can make sure the Tea Party is not in charge of counting the votes later.

Thank you for all that you do to help protect the vote!
-Laura Packard and the rest of the team

Was The GOP’s Visit To The ‘Bondage-Themed’ Sex Club in Support of The ‘ARTS?’

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


I can’t help but wonder what are the thoughts of Republican “Prophet of Doom” cum strategist, Dick Morris‘ — about this particular scandal, after all, he is a well known “ARTISTE” in the field of “KINKY SEX” — and for utterly wrong predictions.

On August 29, 1996, Morris resigned from the Clinton campaign after reports surfaced that he had been involved with a prostitute. A tabloid newspaper had obtained and published a set of photographs of Morris and the woman on a Washington, D.C., hotel balcony.

The Daily Telegraph reported that in order to impress the woman, Sherry Rowlands, Morris invited her to listen in on conversations with the President. The Telegraph also alleged that Morris had a preference for “toe-sucking and dominance,” and that he regaled Rowlands with a version of “Popeye the Sailor Man,” performed in his underpants. LOL!

The Republican Civil War Rages — ‘Joe The Plumber’ Quits The G.O.P

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


When a certified IDIOT like Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher becomes the main focus of your party — because he is quitting, then you are in deep trouble….

Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher -- Joe The Plumber

PoliticoTeam of rivals: GOP base rips new group — Social conservatives are blasting the National Council for a New America, House Minority Whip Eric Cantor’s (R-Va.) nascent effort to rebrand the Republican Party, as a misguided and weak-kneed initiative that is out of touch with the GOP rank and file.

The council, unveiled last week by Cantor and Sen. John McCain, is designed to be a “forward-looking, grass-roots caucus” that formulates policy prescriptions and communicates with voters in a way that could expand the Republican ranks. In announcing the formation of the group, McCain said he hoped the group would attract moderates and “like-minded Democrats” to a series of public forums around the country.

But social conservatives couldn’t help but notice that the policy areas the group will focus on included no mention of same-sex marriage, immigration or abortion. And the roster of GOP luminaries who signed on to the effort was missing a few of the pols who are most popular with values voters.

“The moderates have been saying the same thing all these years, and now they’re just seeing a renewed opportunity to push their ideas,” said Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), a leading opponent of gay marriage.

It’s a losing proposition to try to divide social and economic conservatives,” Ken Blackwell, a one-time Ohio secretary of state and former candidate for Republican National Committee chairman, told POLITICO. “They will constantly find themselves backpedaling and apologizing and repositioning because the composition of that group does not reflect a basic reality, which is that social and economic conservatives complement one another.” [ READ MORE ]

The Strange Death of Republican AmericaJoe The Quitter: ‘Joe The Plumber’ Quits The G.O.P — These days, Republicans have the desperate aura of an endangered species. They lost Congress, then the White House; more recently, they lost a slam-dunk House election in a conservative New York district, then Senator Arlen Specter.

Polls suggest that only one-fourth of the electorate considers itself Republican, that independents are trending Democratic and that as few as five states have solid Republican pluralities.

And the electorate is getting less white, less rural, less Christian ? in short, less demographically Republican. GOP officials who completely controlled Washington three years ago are vowing to “regain our status as a national party” and creating woe-is-us groups to resuscitate their brand, while Democrats are publishing books like The Strange Death of Republican America and 40 More Years: How the Democrats Will Rule the Next Generation.

John McCain’s campaign manager recently described his party as basically extinct on the West Coast, nearly extinct in the Northeast and endangered in the Mountain West and Southwest. [ READ MORE ]

New RNC chairman Michael ‘OREO’ Steele begins tenure — with a big FAT ‘Immigration’ LIE!

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


On Fox News Sunday, Wallace failed to challenge Steele’s claim that Hispanic leaders support border security first.

During the February 1 edition of Fox News Sunday, after Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele stated that the Republican position on immigration is “secure our borders first,” host Chris Wallace failed to challenge Steele’s assertion that “you talk to those leaders in the Hispanic community, they will tell you the same thing: They understand the importance of making sure the United States borders are secure.” In fact, many of the nation’s leading Hispanic organizations advocate for comprehensive immigration reform, not a “secure our borders first” approach.

For instance, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) states: “The CHC opposes immigration enforcement measures that will only serve to push immigrants further into the shadows where they live in fear and are more likely to be exploited. We are committed to improving our national security, but see piecemeal adjustments of immigration enforcement as counterproductive if they are not included in a broad, comprehensive package overhauling the whole immigration system.”

Other leading Hispanic organizations also advocate for comprehensive immigration reform that includes both enforcement and other measures: [ CLICK HERE FOR MORE ]

Sarah Palin — A FUNCTIONALLY ILLITERATE ‘Momma Grizzly’

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


From “The Barracuda,” to the “Turkey ‘Killa’,” and now ….a “Momma Grizzly,” Sarah just keeps digging her “National Political Hole” deeper. She remains popular in a Alaska, but what the heck — she bribed them with oil money, and it is just too cold up there — Alaskans spend most of their time sleeping [With Each Other] and drinking, anyway!, all 683,478 of them.

When will Sarah Palin realize that her utter display of illiteracy, during her tryout as McCain’s VP, has permanently damaged her — as a viable national candidate.

Sarah, right now you are a hero only to your fellow demented, unmalleable and delusional right-wing Americans, who still harbor dreams of a SNOW WHITE America, rid of all “immigrants” …and even blacks, IF possible!

McCain-Palin Supporters Let Their RACIST ROOTS Show In OHIO

On the other hand, every progressive American should champion her candidacy — to represent the Republican Party in 2012.

That would be lovely, for this woman is as dented and as fucked-up as a 1970 DATSUN 1600 SSS, after a grueling Safari Rally [The world's toughest rally], in the East African wilderness.

It would be lovely to have this “HillBilly Hypocrite,” as the standard bearer for the RepubliCUNTS in 2012. She would excite the blood-curdling racist hyenas who constitute roughly one third of America — but that’s as far as she would go, …even with a “Bad Obama.

…and by the way, the Datsun 1600 SSS was a pretty competent car, .. I know because my father owned one.

Sarah Palin is a dog-sled, good enough for the iditarod, …nothing more!
