You know some people think that people are beating this Acorn thing to death but I read a few reports where people speculate about the thousands of votes Acorn fabricated in Minnesota (might be wrong about the state, I forgot) then you read that Sen. Acorn Franken was elected by a margin of about 350 votes. O'Reilley had a piece on it last night too.

Man, that is not right. I dont think that the legal process should necessarily end either when the opponent concedes. It is really the people that are looking for a clean election too. Must be some way to recall that sucker.

People I have met in Minnesota don't seem stupid. Yet they allow a guy to come in from California for the sole purpose of running for Senate from their state. How kind of him.

On top of that, the guy who flies in to establish a residency just to try and grab a Senate seat is a third-rate comic with a mean streak about five miles wide. How was this guy elected? How could his opponent be over a thousand votes ahead before ballots were discovered in car trunks and drawers? The whole thing stinks.

I can see why Obama and so many in his administration like Chavez. The tactics are very similar. They especially like the way Chavez has shut down most media outlets that oppose him. And, of course, there are his "landslide" elections. Just watch. Next time around Obama will get 97% of the vote.

I do believe we'll have standardized voting mechanisms in place then, as well.

Can anyone say "fingerprints"? Worked for Iraq, hey.

Whats wrong with that. You vote once and then you get the frig out. If I tried to vote twice down at my local town hall the little old ladies "manning" the tables would see me coming a mile away and I would be in the klink. As it should be. And if you have an acorn tee shirt on or something they just tell you that you are not allowed to vote. Again, as it should be. If the acorn voters knew they were going to be fingerprinted that would cut down a bit. Maybe we can use some new technology to cut an arrest warrant for everyone with an outstanding warrant at the same time once the fingerprints are forwarded to the FBI. That would be one way to keep the crooks away from the polls in Chicago.

My concern is that Obama is committed to being cool. You know before long his state of the union address will be posted on twitter first and all that stuff. So, without doubt he will propose online voting before long. Gawd what a mess that will be.

Well, he is, after all, a "citizen of the world", so is there a problem with letting other "citizens of the world" vote in our elections?

Uh, oh, I just gave Valerie Jarrett an idea!

Don't believe that citizen of the world crapola. He is only a citizen of Kenya.
