2012 - The year that the Democrats' incessant bad faith claims about voter suppression...

Another Banana Republic.

Fraud in PA: Obama Got Over 99% of Vote at Polls Where GOP Inspectors were Removed; Turnout Somehow "30%" Above Gov't Numbers

From the "why would we ever need ID to vote" files.

Here are three cases where minority voters discovered that someone had already voted in their names.

The nice thing about having a Democrat in the White House is that there is no bad news...

...such as pro-government thugs intimidating opposition voters during the election.

Black Panthers at same polling place in Philadelphia as in 2008.

But since it is voter intimidation for the Democrats, it isn't really voter intimidation.

Obama's Surprising September Job Numbers are Cut in Half.

From 162,000 to 88,000.

Great Moments in Public Discourse - Obama supporters...

...spreading nails at Tea Party Rally parking lot.

Before the event could get under way, though, organizers say a truck affixed with "Obama" stickers drove through the parking lot and dumped quantities of nails.

"We went outside and picked up what we could," said Lou D'Abbraccio, holding a cup filled with nails. "But this was just wrong."

Leftist Thugs.

When they are accusing you of doing something you're not doing, they're doing it.

Leftists attack Republicans in Wisconsin and send out voter suppression letter in Florida.

Paranoia or Prediction?

I'm not saying that this will happen. A lot of these stories at this point are exercises in hysteria and paranoia. But keep an eye out for it.

Because leftists have been talking about non-existent conservative efforts to suppress minority voting for years.

And one thing we know, when the other side accuses you of doing something you're not doing, they're doing it.

Liberals Plan Anti-Mormon Lit Drops at Evangelical Churches.

This is bad on so many levels.

Liberal American activist groups obtain UN observers for American election:

United Nations-affiliated election monitors from Europe and central Asia will be at polling places around the U.S. looking for voter suppression activities by conservative groups, a concern raised by civil rights groups during a meeting this week. The intervention has drawn criticism from a prominent conservative-leaning group combating election fraud

The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), a United Nations partner on democratization and human rights projects, will deploy 44 observers around the country on Election Day to monitor an array of activities, including potential disputes at polling places.

Liberal-leaning civil rights groups met with representatives from the OSCE this week to raise their fears about what they say are systematic efforts to suppress minority voters likely to vote for President Obama.

The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, the NAACP and the ACLU, among other groups, warned this month in a letter to Daan Everts, a senior official with OSCE, of “a coordinated political effort to disenfranchise millions of Americans — particularly traditionally disenfranchised groups like minorities.”

The request for foreign monitoring of election sites drew a strong rebuke from Catherine Engelbrecht, founder and president of True the Vote, a conservative-leaning group seeking to crack down on election fraud.

“These activist groups sought assistance not from American sources, but from the United Nations,” she said in a statement to The Hill. “The United Nations has no jurisdiction over American elections.”

The observers, from countries such as Germany, France, Serbia, Belarus, Ukraine and Kazakhstan, will observe voting at polling places and other political activity.

Because, you know, since a Black American President couldn't possibly guarantee free and equal access to the polls, the obvious anwer is to bring someone in from Kazakhstan.

This is theater, but it is a theater that devalues American democracy and injects just a little bit more nastiness into the American system. Moreover, it pretends that Americans can't be trusted with their own democracy, but that we should turn it all over to the Europeans.

These people are nuts.

Obama is willing to break the law and waste your money to win this election.

Obama administration is promising to pay contractors fines if they don't notify workers that they may be laid off after the election:

Companies with more than 100 employees are required by law to warn workers of potential layoffs 60 days in advance. If the sequester goes into effect, workers will get laid off. Which means that unless something is done, layoff notices may go out to thousands of defense contractor employees right around election time.

Naturally, the administration would prefer that this not happen. So they’ve offered to pay the legal costs of any firm that doesn’t send out the notices.

The Obama administration has sought to quell the fear of mass defense layoffs in presidential battlegrounds like Virginia, where letters sent in early November warning about the possibility of job losses could discourage thousands of defense workers from backing the incumbent.

The government’s guarantee to foot the bill for legal problems, as long as contractors heed OMB’s advice to refrain from warning about lob losses, is unusual.

“I don’t know of any situation where the government has done this in the past,” said William Gould, a labor professor at Stanford Law School.

Presumably the purpose of the law is not to create legal fees; it is to give employees notice of potential layoffs so that they can arrange their finances and otherwise plan for the hard times that may be coming down the road. If the Obama administration does not think that employees should have notice of these potential dangers, then it should say so forthrightly, and try to get this very bad law repealed. On the other hand, if it thinks that maybe it’s a good thing for employees to have advanced notice that they might soon not have a paycheck, then it seems odd to first, pressure contractors not to send those notices, and second, offer to help the contractors avoid paying any legal damages that their failure might have incurred.

And why is there a possibility of a sequester?

Because Obama and the Democrat-controlled Senate don't want to do their jobs!

Voter Suppression by Democrats of Military Votes.

VA: Military absentee ballots going AWOL in 2012

FREDERICKSBURG — A 92 percent drop in absentee-ballot requests by military personnel in Virginia is raising concerns that the Pentagon is failing to carry out a federal voting law.

With only 1,746 military voters in Virginia requesting absentee ballots so far this year — out of 126,251 service members in the state —the Military Voter Protection Project says the system has broken down.

And it’s not just in the Old Dominion. MVPP Executive Director Eric Eversole reports significant declines in absentee-ballot requests by service members across the nation.

Compiling data from Virginia, Florida, North Carolina, Illinois, Ohio, Alaska, Colorado and Nevada, Eversole’s organization found that military families have requested 55,510 absentee ballots so far this year. That’s a sharp decline from the 166,252 sought in those states in 2008.
