Today's Daily show...
Did anyone see that...

Who was the guy(Some repub) that stated that what the 9th Circuit Court is doing "Hijacking" the election process...or something to that nature...I believe he was the one who financed the recall...

I thought to myself..."What in the hell did this guy just say...?"
"HI-JACKING" an election...?
What do you call funding a re-call 8 months after the first election...?

Anyway...does anyone have links to this statement...?

1. Yes, it was Darrell Issa...
... the guy who funded the recall effort.

My first thought when I heard him talking about hijacking the electoral process was "WTF do you think happened in 2000?!?"

I don't know where you can find a link to a transcript of his comments or any such, but here's his website... maybe there's something there: http://www.issa.house.gov/

2. It gets worse
My daughter got her boombox out of storage today. I was going to turn it on, listen to some sports radio. The AM dial was already set to a station with Rush.

He actually said that this new concept of using the equal protection clause was going to doom elections forever, and it's all the fault of liberals.

He actually said that.

4. Fuck Rush...
... he's a nutcase and his listeners are all aptly-named "Dittoheads". No point getting our undies in a bunch over him and his nonsensical rants.

5. well...
if anyone can find that transcript it would be much appreciated...

certain freepers from another website are saying this kind of junk...
(quote# 1)
I thought it was interesting that people who tend to vote the democratic ticket have a difficulty with very simple ballot procedures. I think maybe the liberals need to supply voting "big brothers". They can hold their hand in the voting booth.


(quote #2)
It is a stall tactic to give all of the illegal aliens time to get their voter registration cards fruadulantly, so that they can bail out the democratic party.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

So...I thought of posting the comments by Issa today to show just how hypicritical these bastards can be...
