(probably the real thing, but let’s see an I.D. just to be sure)
Much as I love the idea of a voter registration drive that might prevent a wholly unqualified fear-monger from becoming Vice President, there’s something to be said for signing up voters who are actually alive. Or at the very least, are residents of the state in question. From Fox News.com (link taken from Talking Points Memo) :
Nevada state authorities seized records and computers Tuesday from the Las Vegas office of an organization that tries to get low-income people registered to vote, after fielding complaints of voter fraud.
Bob Walsh, spokesman for the Nevada secretary of state’s office, told FOXNews.com the raid was prompted by ongoing complaints about “erroneous” registration information being submitted by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, also called ACORN.
The group was submitting the information through a voter sign-up drive known as Project Vote.
“Some of them used nonexistent names, some of them used false addresses and some of them were duplicates of previously filed applications,” Walsh said, describing the complaints, which largely came from the registrar in Clark County, Nev.
Secretary of State Ross Miller said the fraudulent registrations included forms for the starting lineup of the Dallas Cowboys football team.
“Tony Romo is not registered to vote in the state of Nevada, and anybody trying to pose as Terrell Owens won’t be able to cast a ballot on Nov. 4,” Miller said.
I’d rather have a wholly unqualified VP than a wholly unqualified President….and I think that the VP has more experience than Coolio Obama
I don’t what’s more stunning — that you consider 7 years in the Illinois legislature and 4 years in the U.S. Senate to be a lesser qualification than less then 2 years as Alaskan governor and 6 years as Mayor of a town with fewer than 6 thousand residents….or that you believe calling Obama “Coolio” serves any purpose whatsoever. But points for cultural relevancy, dude, why not just refer to him as Senator Tone Loc next time? It will make about as much sense.
Clearly, it’s time for the “gloves to come off.”
To be fair, GC, it’s his hair. It’s just like Coolio’s! Are you even following the campaign?
I’m with Jason, though: Obama and Palin seem roughly equal in intellect, engagement and suitability for the highest office in the land. If you’re a fucking idiot, I mean. I should’ve…that should’ve been up front.
I think it’s time to have a national discussion about T.O.’s minister. He seems to have inflammatory ideas about how many balls someone who draws double coverage should have tossed his way, and how Jesus views the fact that the tight end might be open when said Messiah-blessed deep threat draws coverage.
That’s the real issue here, and you, sirs, are dodging it.
Shame.
