Bush Administration Purging Democratic Registrations

[ExAm]

In swing-state Colorado, the Republican Secretary of State conducted the biggest purge of voters in history, dumping a fifth of all registrations. Guess their color.
In swing-state Florida, the state is refusing to accept about 85,000 new registrations from voter drives – overwhelming Black voters.
In swing state New Mexico, HALF of the Democrats of Mora, a dirt poor and overwhelmingly Hispanic county, found their registrations disappeared this year, courtesy of a Republican voting contractor.
In swing states Ohio and Nevada, new federal law is knocking out tens of thousands of voters who lost their homes to foreclosure.

WHAT THE FUCK.

[Bastinka]

Could and could not be another :conspiracy:

How do you find this stuff? Just keep clicking refresh on Redit or Digg?
Almost everyday ExAm has something interesting, yet not always a reliable source.

Welcome to the privatized voting industry. :v:

[n00b1n8R]

Yeah, that'll teach those no good democrats for having a charismatic and popular leader with popular policy.

I hope that comment wasn't actually as stupid and non-insightful as it sounds.

[Terin]

Because rob is that stupid normally. And it's on the internet, so it must be true!

A wheel gun? Only eight years old and he's already talking about DRIVE-BYS!

"Politics. How tiresome."

This shit happens all the time; eventually it'll pass, and then something else will take its place. Rinse and repeat.
I'm not to worried about this affecting Obama's chances for election. Hell, he already has impersonators on car commercials. :v:

Nah, it's the best part of the country.

That's why people are attempting to manipulate and remove it. It gets in their way.

[The_Wraith]

I really find if funny that people think this is something new or unique to the U.S and are so outraged.

Welcome to politics.

[n00b1n8R]

And that makes it ok. :downs:

[Bad Waffle]

Mass debotchery, politics!

[The_Wraith]

And that makes it ok. :downs: Of course it's not, but neither is Bush bashing. It makes you look incredibly naive.

If you could take a nice glance at all the shady political maneuvers throughout history, with this attitude you'd probably have to off yourself at the horror of it all. :)

More info Wraith.

Give me links!

[The_Wraith]

If you really want to know, look. I don't get paid to surf the web or read books. :)

[Bodzilla]

not good enough >:(

[Rob Oplawar]

If that's what it takes to get a real president with real experience like McCain, then I support it. It's not ideal, but it's better than letting the people elect that inexperienced ass just because he's "charismatic". Hitler was charismatic too, ya know.
e: And he was put in power by popular vote. So, I rest my case.

[CN3089]

You heard it here first guys, Obama (and any other charismatic politician) hates the jews and wants to take over the world. VOTE OLD DULL WHITE MAN '08http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-godwin.gif

President Bush was experienced, too. He was governor of Texas and his father was also President. So, naturally, the past 8 years of his supervision have led America into a new age of economic growth and global appreciation, and everyone approves of his election and wishes we could elect him another 4 years.

Right?

Quite personally, I don't listen to what politicians say. Their job is to promise whatever they need to get into office. I pay attention to how, when, and where they campaign. Obama, for example, spent the last week visiting various Middle Eastern and European nations in order to improve relations; McCain spent his week in Ohio.

Which one looks more dedicated and fitting for the office to you?

Which one looks more dedicated and fitting for the office to you?You do know that McCain has been to the Middle East several times, right? Just a while ago, McCain called Obama out because he hadn't gone to any other countries, and Obama made the claim that McCain wasn't spending enough time in the U.S., where he should have been. Now that he stays, he's not doing what he should be? I'm not saying I like McCain, but think about what you're saying. McCain has been to the Middle East several times, I'm not sure about Europe.

Seriously, try not just going by what you hear and see in the media, search this shit up. The news and media are just about entertainment anymore; if you want real facts, you have to find them yourself.

[Ifafudafi]

Right back at ya.

My intention was more to denounce the whole "McCain has more experience" thing, for the record. I'm also just stating a recent example for how I determine a candidate's worthiness, rather than using it as a true argument on behalf somebody.

EDIT: Also, wasn't this thread about a large Democratic majority having their voting registrations purged? I'm not to fond of political debates; it's always two sides constantly arguing with diminishing senses of fact and logic just to try and prove each other wrong.

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-eng101.gif After he secured the nomination, he went on a trip to the middle east and Europe as part of a congressional delegation (http://www.reuters.com/article/politicsNews/idUSL0157942120080316). Basically the exact same thing he's criticizing Obama for now. http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-doh.gif

For instance, he's not doing his job (http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/7/29/11201/1844/134/558201).

[Rob Oplawar]

Don't start blaming Bush for the state of the economy. He's an intelligent and experienced leader, and if he weren't in office it's likely things would be much worse. He may not be the best public speaker, but he's compassionate and determined. If it weren't for him the terrorists probably would have won. What we need now is someone who will stay the course, someone with no sympathy for terrorists, someone who will protect this nation from the threats in the middle east- someone like McCain.

[ExAm]

Guys, what happened to Rob? Did he go crazy?

[Rob Oplawar]

No, I saw a special on Fox and it really opened my eyes about the issues. I can't believe you guys accuse Fox of being biased. They presented the facts in a reasonable and straightforward manner, and I made my own decision based on those facts.

e: Although, I don't see how it makes them any different from any other news company.

lolwut I'm waiting for a punchline over here :(

[n00b1n8R]

Guys, rob is trolling it up. Way to fail.

[Rob Oplawar]

I feel dirty now.

[n00b1n8R]

Here baby, let me lick the dirt away. :-3

[ExAm]

I feel dirty now.THANK GOD. I seriously thought you had been taken from us :(

[Zeph]

The constitution is being torn to pieces. /me is awaiting the shotgun revolution.
