Obama Tells ACORN to Stuff It


Halloween is almost upon us and I am reminded of a marketing campaign that you may recognize. One of my favorite movie series is that of the "Saw" movies. During recent Halloween seasons you may have heard the trailers for the movies saying, "If it's Halloween, it must be Saw."


I have my own twist to this advertising tagline.


If it's election season, it must be voter fraud.


By now I am sure you all have heard of the hoopla surrounding the Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now, A.C.O.R.N., and their suspicious voter registration activities. They are being investigated in over 11 states for registering phony names like Mickey Mouse, famous people like the offensive line for the Dallas Cowboys, seven-year-old children and now in Alabama more people have been registered to vote than live in the state. Just two weeks ago a group of German tourists was registered to vote in Ohio. One young man said last week he was registered, by ACORN, 73 times!!! He was offered money, cigarettes and, I believe, alcohol in exchange for his John Hancock (or as Chris Farley would say, Herbie Hancock). One is compelled to wonder for whom these "people" will cast their votes.


I work with a woman whom I would call a "flaming liberal." My definition of this would be a liberal who blindly disregards fact and will break into a maniacal screech at the mere mention of "Fox News." She takes the word of FactCheck.org to be golden, however it is my understanding that website is nothing but leftist propaganda mixed in with some actual factoids. (The Annenberg Foundation finances FactCheck,org, and while Lefties like to say that this organization is a right-wing brainchild of a Reagan ally, it was once the roost of none other than Barack Hussein Obama.)


Anyway, a usual day at work will consist of her throwing out her little jabs about McCain and/or Sarah Palin mixed in with her tirades about Bush and calling me a "Limbot" (referring to Rush Limbaugh) and a "Republican" even though I have told her numerous times I haven't listened to Rush in at least two years and that I am an independent most closely relating to the Libertarian Party. I usually just let her spout off, making herself look like a buffoon, and just concentrating on my work.


Yesterday I had had enough of her vitriol so I threw my own jab declaring, "At least McCain is not trying to steal this election." Her immediate response was, "Why should it be any different this time? It happened in the last two elections." You see, she is one of these "Bush was selected, not elected" myrmidons. And when I hear someone spout that idiotic verbiage I know I am dealing with a mindless drone. She went on to say that she didn't care if this election was stolen by Obama. There you have the mindest of a liberal: They don't care how it happens just as long as they and their agenda prevail... even if illegally.


Just two weeks ago I made my prediction known to her that this election was going to be plagued with voter fraud. However it was in her mind that it was going to be the Republicans doing it. I went on to offer that the best way to avoid voter fraud is to mandate photo IDs to be presented at the time of voting. You would think she would jump at that since she was speculating that the conservatives would be the guilty ones, but nooooooooooo! She balked at the idea proclaiming that not everyone has photo ID. I initially responded that government could issue the IDs to those who did not have one, like my state of Georgia proposed.


But I got to thinking... who wouldn't have photo identification? Well, let's see, there might be the elderly who perhaps stopped driving years ago, people who have had their driver's licenses revoked, underage teens and adolescents, incarcerated or probational felons, illegal aliens, etc. There may be others, but those are the only ones that come to mind right now. Of those only the first two categories are eligible to cast a vote in an election (please be mindful that the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that voting in a presidential election is not a right).


History has shown that it is the Democrats that utilize voter fraud to win elections. One only needs to look at the election of John F. Kennedy where Mayor Richard J. Daley helped raise the dead and get them to the voting booths to vote for JFK. It was Al Gore and Daley's son that were trying to get Florida's absentee ballots disqualified because they knew the military overwhelmingly supports conservatives (a recent poll shows that our military personnel favor McCain 3-to-1 over Obama). Al Gore wanted recounts of votes in only heavily Democratic counties in FL in 2000. But when the Supreme Court stated that if even one county was to be recounted, they all needed to be recounted, Gore decided to withdraw his lawsuit and concede.
But I digress.
Getting back to for whom these ACORN registered voters will cast ballots, you would not be surprised to know that Obama used to work alongside of ACORN bullying banks into offering sub-prime mortgages to people who could not afford them. Obama has spoken at ACORN gatherings, yet he initially stated he had never had any connections with the organization.
What it all comes down to is that ACORN is trying to stuff the ballot box in favor of His Holiness, Barry Obama.
