    Oh fantastic response, as per usual. I don't feel the need to waste time explaining why.

    Not like it matters, but if I could ask you one question it would be: ignorant or lying or both?

    I feel a pithy lyric coming on....

    This is outrageous, and people like basso and John McCain are directly responsible for inciting this type of violence. Basso, I suggest you think about the ramifications of this childish game you like to play.

    I did. I filed a missing persons report for you after you ran away from your post on New Mexico vote fraud.

    I'm afraid that ACORN may be attacking the fabric of space-time as well.

    :(

    Everytime I hear that quote from McCain, he sounds more and more like a drama queen. Attack on the fabric of democracy? Seriously, old man?

    President Bush is asking the Justice Department to look into whether 200,000 Buckeye State poll-goers must use provisional ballots on Election Day because their names do not match state databases.

    White House spokesman Carlton Carroll confirmed Friday that the president will forward a letter to Attorney General Michael Mukasey from House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), requesting that the Justice Department look into whether the state’s voter rolls comply with the Help America Vote Act.

    In a letter dated on Friday, the House GOP leader wrote that with Election Day “less than two weeks away, immediate action by the Department is not only warranted, but also crucial.”

    “I respectfully request that you use your authority to direct Attorney General Michael Mukasey and the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate these actions and direct the appropriate authorities in each state to comply with the Section 303 requirements of HAVA,” Boehner wrote.

    “Unless action is taken by the Department immediately, thousands, if not tens or hundreds of thousands, of names whose information has not been verified through the HAVA procedures mandated by Congress will remain on voter rolls during the November 4, 2008 election; and there is a significant risk — if not a certainty, that unlawful votes will be cast and counted.”

    The U.S. Supreme Court last Friday threw out a Republican-led effort in Ohio that would have required 200,000 voters to cast provisional ballots on Nov. 4 because of misspellings, incorrect addresses or other inconsistencies in their records.

    Indeed, like the posts of ROCKET-REICH-IN-NYC, a huge sucking force can be created by the ACORN reporting of Fox News. With enough space-time distortion, light itself will be unable to escape the vortex. :(

    Obama is now pressuring the DOJ to delay this investigation of ACORN until after the election. What a crook. Chicago style politics at its finest... what's he scared of?
