GOP operative defends battleground voter drives
Worms, worms, all of them.

Firm under fire for registration practices: Allegedly refused to sign up Democrats.
Beth DeFalco ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHOENIX — GOP political operative Nathan Sproul doesn’t make apologies for focusing his canvassers on registering Republican voters in battleground states across the country.

And he takes as a compliment the fact that powerful Democrats like U.S. Sens. Ted Kennedy and Patrick Leahy have asked the Department of Justice to investigate him.

“I take great pride in the fact that the Democrats are having hysterical fits about how well we did our job,” Sproul said.

Sproul and his Chandler, Ariz.-based consulting firm, Sproul & Associates, have come under fire in recent weeks, accused of deceiving would-be voters and destroying Democratic voter registration cards.

2. Hopefully that will be a priority for the Kerry Dept. of Justice!
Can you imagine having a DOJ that actually does its job? It's been a looooong time.

3. Kerry's Justice Dept. should form a special task force
on election fraud.

Every single one of these bastards should be thrown in the slammer.

They'll think twice about trying to pull this kind of shit again in 2006 and 2008, I guarantee...

4. This type of soliciting for republican voters should be illegal
under any administration but I guess we all know why it's not now. Asscrack wouldn't do "the right thing" if his Christian life depended on it.

6. It's one thing ...
to register Republicans. It's another thing to register Democrats and then throw their registration forms in the trash.

That's criminal, and it deserves severe criminal sanctions. I'm glad he's "flattered" by the attention that he's getting from our party leaders. I hope he gets a lot more attention from the Kerry Justice Department very soon.

:mad:
