Blackwell just can't catch a break. Good, let's keep this in front of the MSM. He not only steals elections, he is stupid about his own state's laws. It would be funny if it weren't so sad. Wonder if he is the best and the brightest the GOP has to offer in Ohio?

Blackwell Letter Seeks Illegal Contributions --The state's chief elections officer, accused of mishandling the presidential vote in Ohio, sent a fund-raising letter for his own 2006 gubernatorial campaign that was accompanied by a request for illegal contributions. A pledge card with the letter from Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell, a Republican who co-chaired the Bush-Cheney election campaign in Ohio, said "corporate & personal checks are welcome." Corporate donations are illegal in Ohio.

1. He probably does know the law, just doesn't think it applies to HIM

2. The previous poster had it right. As a Republican, the laws do not apply

We have no equal protection in this country anymore. Laws apply mainly to Democrats. Republicans are free to ignore any law that they don't happen to agree with. This would include the ability of the president of ignore a Supreme Court ruling that was not in his favor and proceed as if nothing had happened. This also includes international law and international treaties. Welcome to the rogue state which is America. I weep for my country and my children who have to inhabit it after I am gone.
