Starting at the article, and continuing through the comments:

The reason that the feds are not going after Acorn, etc, is very simple: neither party wants to turn over that rock. Although the vast majority of the voter fraud occuring in this country is being done by big-city Democratic machines, there’s plenty of Republican malfeasance out in the boonies, where county courthouses are dens of (nominally Republican) backscratchers. Most voter fraud isn’t aimed at the presidency, it’s aimed at the local offices. Get the tumbrels rolling, and who knows who’s going to meet Madame Guillotine next.

Forget getting Ob on a technicality. It doesn’t matter WHERE his birth certificate is from, as long as it shows his mother’s full name. Citizenship is automatic for anyone with one US citizen as a parent.

It would be easier with that level of smoking gun, but remember the aphorism about suing anyboy and a great country. With good enough lawyers (and enough money) the concept is certainly in play.

I don’t want to deny anyone their right to vote. I want to deny organizations the “right” to cajole, bribe and intimidate people with no civic knowledge and little interest into the voting booth, where their vote will be just as valuable as the voter who has paid attention to the issues and really cares enough to do it on their own.

False registrations can easily be converted into fraudent votes. Someone can easily vote under their own name, drive acress town and vote as the falsely registered “John Smith”. When was the last time you were asked for picture ID when you voted? I never have, and the Democratic party is fighting tooth and nail to keep that from even being an option.

“top students from top colleges were passed over because of their potential free-thinking, wanting to make the world a better place, progressive mindsets”
Translation: Figured out that the “top college” ratings were fixed like the 5th at Pimlico, and that loading up the DOJ with students from schools that subjected their students to years of hard-left brainwashing wasn’t a good idea, since most new graduates have no idea of what a better place is, nor how much it costs.
