WASHINGTON - House Republican leaders on Wednesday postponed a vote on renewing the 1965 Voting Rights Act after GOP lawmakers complained it unfairly singles out nine Southern states for federal oversight.

I agree. Ohio should be included in the list to be singled out for federal oversight.

No surprise here, Repubs. don't want the masses voting period. The Rethuglicans realize that the more people who vote it spells doom for the Repub. staying in power. So the Retghuglican course of action is to make it as difficult as possible for voters in battle ground states to cast their votes.

The 2nd line of defense the Rethuglicans will deploy are the paperless Die-bold voting machines with remote hacker capability software already installed. Once again the 06 and 08 will consist of vote count anomalies and voter fraud.

Hammer. NAil. Head. KAblam!

Even more specifically, they want to make it difficult for SOME segments of society to vote.


I fully expect the Rethugs to attempt every aspect of vote fraud that they have learned over the past decade. But, and this is a biggun, I'm hoping that SOMEBODY in a position of power will stand up to it! It's time someone OTHER THAN KERRY cry foul, and demand recounts across the country, if not in fact, THE ENTIRE COUNTRY. It's time to catch them red handed and make some arrests!
