Election chief warns of absentee scam (Fl. Repugs stealing Dem ballots!!!)

<snip>
Pasco elections officials have a warning for the county's absentee voters: Don't give your ballot to a stranger claiming to be from the elections office.

They're not who they say they are.

"The people who are soliciting your ballots in this manner are not elections officials," Pasco Elections Supervisor Kurt Browning warned Thursday.

Sweat said it appeared the collections were occurring in neighborhoods full of low-income, minority and elderly residents.<snip>

8. And he
should. Jebster promised the state to his brother, and now is the time to keep his word. Jebster has tried strong arming the elderly with the FDLE, and that didn't work. A pox on the House of Bush!

3. I pray it's just a matter of time until someone catches them in the act.
This would be the perfect place for some enterprising Americans to create a trap for these bastards and get them nailed.

This has gone on too long. They need to be stopped.

9. Bastards
If and when they catch these bastards, they need to strip them of their voting rights for life. Also need to ban them from any public service or job for life.

14. I wonder if any of the 5 Supreme Court
Justices that voted for the bushie thieves are thinking about what they did to our country? I know Scalia and Thomas don't care but what about the other 3? I hope they see how close to losing their jobs they are. When bushie destroys the U.S.A. they will be in the unemployment line to.

16. Lighten Up On The Supreme Court...
I mean, Scalia and Thomas are awful and Renquist makes me shudder, but O'Conner and Kennedy? The so called swing vote justices, I have some faith in these two despite their decision in Bush V. Gore.

Trying to be objective, I don't think it is fair to bash a justice when they hand down a ruling with which they disagree. By sometimes ruling "conservative" and other times "liberal" these two have shown some measure of impartiality. On the other hand, Scalia and Thomas (and to a slightly lesser degree Renquist) seem to have a consistent pattern of disrespect for individual liberties. And to think Dubya wants to pack the court with them. :hurts:

Much as I would like to see a court packed with the likes of Ginsburg, Breyer (and Souter) - objectively speaking our country probably would be best off with a court either evenly divided, or packed with the likes of O'Conner, Kennedy.

OK - flame away at me

18. No. O'Connor and Kennedy derserve NO respect.
That ruling was a piece of crap they were so embarassed to support, they only made it applicable to one case. They deserve to go down in history as political hacks who sold their last vestiges of legal integrity for a Republican presidency. I despise them.

15. Republican corruption: Nature or nurture? Stealing votes from little old
ladies. How very typically republican. The essence of republican philosophy and practice.

Is being a walking POS genetic for republicans, or does bad toilet training make them rotten?
