GARDEN GROVE, Calif. - "For two days, a Republican congressional candidate had promised to explain how a threatening letter was sent by his campaign without his knowledge to thousands of Hispanic immigrant voters. As about 200 people gathered Friday in front of his campaign headquarters seeking answers, Tan D. Nguyen was a no-show at his own news conference. Instead, 10 uniformed California
Department of Justice police officers arrived with a search warrant and pounded on the glass of Nguyen's storefront headquarters.

Agents spent two hours sifting through cabinets, boxes and computers. They left carrying several boxes and plastic bags of evidence.

Hours later, they searched a home in nearby Anaheim listed as belonging to one of Nguyen's staffers, emerging with a computer hard drive and a small box. Nguyen's neighbors in a gated community in Santa Ana said law enforcement officers also spent several hours searching his home.

Nguyen, a Vietnamese immigrant trying to unseat a popular Democratic incumbent, has acknowledged his campaign sent the letter, which wrongly said immigrants could be jailed if they voted. He blamed an unidentified staffer whom he said he has fired."

8. Heh heh

great analogy. What's interesting is that FINALLY these issues are being taken seriously. The R's have been pulling this shit for an eternity without much ado.

6. I'm shocked, but pleased that the police are investigating an attempt to

deny people their right to vote, and I guess we can attribute this to the fact that this is California.

I wish we could send some of these California police officers to Ohio, Florida and Georgia.

7. The ghost of Bob Dornan still lurks in Orange County

He was defeated at the polls by Sanchez (twice) with the help of "illegal aliens who stuffed the ballot box after being ushered to the polls by criminal elements working in behalf of the ungodly democrat candidate!". Some things never change.
