The Election 2012 Mid-Day Thread #1 For 11/6/12: Voter Suppression Is Not A Joke Joe

Image
Proud Maryland native and House member Elijah Cummings (D) really was annoyed this morning with Mo(u)rning Jo(k)e laughing off voter suppression efforts throughout the country from Republicans yesterday. And he certainly expressed that quite candidly to them face to face. Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news , world news , and news about the economy "This thing, I listen to you all Joe yesterday, y'all were kind of laughing about it. It's a very serious issue.   It's an emotional (issue) . I predicted a very long time ago that African-american people would come out in record numbers, and that is already happening in my district. They are coming out in records numbers because they do not like the idea that there seems to be a concerted effort to stop them for voting."   Scarborough blamed David Gregory, who is even worse of course, with his silence on the issue on Meet The Press all throughout the election season despite supposedly being...

The Sleep Time and Rise "n" Shine Thread for 10/28-29/08: The Ugly of America: More Voter Suppression Shameful Tactics

Thanks to the diary of qmasterloo , here is more shame all the SOP trying to steal the election from the American people. I will try and go to sleep, even after seeing this utter evil practice of hate and obsession of power from this horrible party. And TPM's 100 Seconds for 10/28/08

10/27/08: TWD's Agenda For The Day: The Ugly of America, Part 5: The Fight Aganist Voter Suppression From The SOP

It is indeed ugly, how the Department of Justice has become "Conservative Republican cronies" for a pathetic desperate party obsessed with supremacy and never willing to abdicate the power that the people of this nation don't want them to have. They will try anything, and do anything, to literally defraud the people of this nation for their own means. It is un-American, un-Democratic, and un-humane from those in the party who preach about "Country First" an "We will protect you at all cost." Instead, it is their own selfish butts who place themselves before anyone because they don't give a real damn about others. Lacking any altruistic quality, it is all about "them", and only "them." Today, from the post of Daily Kos' front page writer georgia10 , she writes exactly how egregious and horrible this administration is, and how the Sad Obnoxious Party will go to any means necessary to do their dirty deeds: But the rules have me...

The Ugliness of Voter Supression, Part 2

We talked about this earlier today , and now, look at this (from September 30th, and Katie Couric's show of all places). Tehn look at jamess diary at the Kos. When will the Corporate-owned Media start covering the Real Story? (Kudos to CBS, for starting the investigation!) Don't let this happen to you or anybody you know, no matter who they vote for. This is democracy at stake here. Finally, it looks like CNN is doing it's damn job for a change: HAHAHAHAHAHA, some of these names are out of the playbook of Bart Simpson, seriously.

10/18/08- TWD's Agenda for "Satur"day: A ""Democracy" That Doesn't Want Its People to Vote

Original photo form Google.com That country talked about in the preceding title isn't Iraq, or Syria, or Zimbabwe. Sadly, this is another disturbing conversation about America. When our Department of Justice does things like this ( as well as the FBI ), it shows how the Cheney/Bush Administration has embarrassed our country. The vote suppression movement is running deep in this country now. From the assiduous Zachary Roth : Add the Obama campaign to the growing list of players who think that DOJ's election-eve investigation into ACORN is a repeat of the politicization of the department that we saw in the US attorney firings scandal. "With this voter fraud [investigation], we're seeing an unholy alliance of law enforcement and the ugliest form of partisan politics," Bob Bauer, an elections lawyer with the Obama camp, said on a conference call with reporters just now. Bauer compared the decision to launch the investigation with the US attorneys scandal, in which ...

Palin: Hamas? What Hamas? (Thanks to the Young Turks); Voter Suppression in Virginia?

The Young Turks, led by Cenk Ugar, is tremendous. Here's a quick bio : The Young Turks, the first nationwide liberal talk show and first live, daily internet TV show, is a funny, smart, irreverent and entertaining look at politics, sex, news, pop culture, current affairs and personal stories. The show airs live online Monday to Friday from 6 - 9 pm ET. On XM Satellite Radio catch the show Monday to Friday from 8 - 10 am ET on channel 167. And here is Cenk with a massive find, the latest clip in how horrible Sarah Palin's interview was with Katie Couric. In fact, this is the scariest, most alarming excerpt from the interview, and it shows just how reckless a choice John McCain has made. Stupid, reckless, f(explextive) moronic he is for picking this Governor. He has literally put this country at great risk with this decision, and if you haven't realize that, hopefully you will after you see this: In this day and age, how the hell are you, running for the second most powerful ...
