    ACORN Vegas Office Raided in Voter Fraud Investigation

    If you can't earn the voters just invent some new ones. The plot thickens. I'd bet a paycheck that every fraudulent registration submitted was declaring democrat.

    It's a conspiracy theory with almost no basis...

    Did the Liberals want minorities to get more houses? Yes. Were there attempts bad for the health of our country? Yes. Were they an attempt to institute socialism? Liberals may be the more intelligent of the 2 parties, but they aren't that bright...

    Generally, conspiracy theories give too much credit to the human capacity to concieve of, efficiently organize, and then secretly pull off highly complex operations.

    Occam's razor says - all things being equal, sh!t happens.

    Of course, it doesn't mean that along the way, some wacky BS wasn't going on coincidentally...

    seems like newly registered voters may be the less significant way voter fraud is conducted

    http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/09/us/politics/09voting.html?_r=1&em&oref=slogin

    "...for every voter added to the rolls in the past two months in some states, election officials have removed two, a review of the records shows."

    gotta watch both sides with this stuff. they want to win at all costs, well, except for gore and kerry. they werent up to a fight.

    You use this as an example to imply Republicans are to blame as well??

    From you linked article:
    However, considering the explosion of reports about ACORN in the last week - FBI raids at several headquarters, complaints from multiple voter officials, interviews with actual ACORN employees admitting they are telling registrants to vote for Obama, and even the democratic Sec of State in Ohio being accused of outright voter fraud, yeah I can see how it is a bipartisan problem. The fact is, republicans are not registering the same person 20, 50, or even 70 times. Nor are they accused of registering football rosters, cats, dogs, juveniles, and even dead people. But ACORN has been proven to be doing just that. And they don't seem to be registering as republicans. Shocking, huh?

    These are not baseless allegations. They are proven fraudulent registrations, that only seem to be happening in battle ground states, and apparently only the tip of the iceberg has been discovered. And Obama pumps $ directly to these guys. Interesting, huh? Yeah, you keep telling yourself the repubs are trying to steal the election with overwhelming proof of just the opposite, because if both sides are doing it, it must be ok, right?

    Whatever makes you feel warm and fuzzy.
