I don’t know about our gracious host, but reality is that yes, double-checking voter registrations to put fraud organizations out of business would be one area where yes, bigger government might be appropriate, especially as it’s coming out that ACORN has submitted hundreds of thousands of fraudulent registrations, if not over a million.

Romans 13. Government has a legitimate role in punishing the wicked and commending the just, and if it takes a few more employees and a few more dollars to punish election fraud, so bet it.

Lestat – I don’t remember you complaining when the Ohio Secretary of State (or the Florida Secretary of State) was actually the head of the Bush campaign in the state.

I had no idea that you knew Rob from back when he was a Gore voter.

Remember another time you made erroneous assertions about Rob? You’ve got so many nails in the coffin of your dishonesty and yet you still go on. Your behavior is a bit shameless, Lestat. One would think that a professed educated man such as yourself would learn when to zip it up, but I guess not. You just keep on opening that mouth of yours to insert your foot.

Her job is to verify that those registered to vote are, in fact, eligible to vote. Period. Full stop. Any other task isw secondary to that.

It is impossible to cross-check nearly 700,000 new or revised voter registrations filed this year without crashing Ohio’s registration system, Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner said Thursday.

Cloward Piven Strategy in action.

Or in other words, the left is staging a coup but without guns, and it seems they might succeed.

If you thought Nixon was a criminal, you have seen nothing yet.

Obama is ten times worse.

We have seen but the tip of the iceberg of the fraudulent activity from the Obama gang.

I expect some rioting no matter who wins.

Most likely from angry Obama supporters if their dear leader loses, but it is not entirely impossible some republicans might get violent if they find out their vote has not been counted by some corrupt Obama supporters.

But this too is part of the Cloward Piven Strategy.

The more chaos, the better for those staging a coup without guns.

lestupid, exactly what does anything you said have to do with an elected official refusing to do the job she is being paid, and paid quite well, to do?

I don’t remember you complaining when the Ohio Secretary of State (or the Florida Secretary of State) was actually the head of the Bush campaign in the state. But now because the Secretary of State knows somebody in Acorn it is obvious fraud.

Conservatism is all about defining what are and are not appropriate roles for government.

Hold fraud-free elections is one of the most important, and most basic, roles of government. So if we need to spend more tax dollars to make that happen, I’m all for it.

But, as always, we need to be smart about it. I’m not in favor of spending any more money on digital voting which, frankly, doesn’t seem to be working. I say give ‘em pens and paper.

It’s not just the partisan connection, Lestat (and ACORN is absolutely partisan, their tax status to the contrary). It’s ACORN taking money from the Obama campaign. It’s ACORN filing fraudulent voter registrations all over the country, sometimes resulting in arrests. It’s Brunner refusing to prevent voter registration fraud in Ohio.

I know you, being a blinkered partisan twit, probably think that being a Republican is in and of itself evidence of corruption. But it’s not that Brunner is a Democrat. It’s not that ACORN is a partisan, pro-Obama outfit. It’s that both are corrupt and complicit in fraud.
