GOP: "Democrats are... registering people who are not eligible to vote"
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 01:06 PM by troublemaker
This post-debate "conversation" with Bush-Cheney campaign manager Ken Mehlman is chilling. Read the whole thing--it's only one page. Know your enemy!
Americans saw a big clash of visions and a big clash in two kinds of people — one who's decent, the other one who's not. It says a lot about Kerry's character. It's truly unprecedented." ...

Q: Many media reports assert that Democrats have bested Republicans in registering new voters this year, is that so?

"No. In state after state after state, Democrats are registering voters to make up for population losses, especially in cities, and they're registering people who are not eligible to vote." ...

2. Thank goodness they're shredding those registrations for us.
It'd be a shame to break the law. Asshole.

3. Ineligible in what way, dear?
He doesn't mention that. I assume he's challenging these registrations? On what grounds?

5. John Fund, the Wall Street Journal's woman beater was on Lou Dobbs
earlier this week claiming motor voter and provisional ballots were creating fraud within the system...the Repubs are going to use lawsuits from both sides and confusion over ballots to get the USSC to throw this election to the house of representatives....it's already being set up with these stories.

9. "Ineligible" voters according to Republicans are:
Anyone with skin any shade darker than white paper.

Anyone with a spiritual preference other than John Ashcroft's.

Anyone living in a blue state.

Anyone registered Democrat.

12. Blacks? Heavens no! Just "especially in cities"
They no longer hate people for the color of their skin--just their neighborhood.

13. This has been the new repuke talking point this past week.
They are starting the talking point of Democratic voter fraud. They love to turn a a negative subject dealing with themselves into the opponents problem. As if no one thinks they are going to try top steal Florida, Ohio and every other community that has been reported on for the past year showing them directly involved in voter suppression and fraud.

Fascism thru and thru!

14. Which are the Americans who are 'ineligible to vote'?
Can I tell them by skin color, gender, or just by the K/E buttons they're wearing?
