Strictly Street Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Pennsylvania Democrats were caught on surveillance tape reportedly accepting cash bribes in return for opposing voter ID in the Pennsylvania legislature. Gifts of Tiffany’s jewelry were also given to Democrat legislators from Philadelphia, reportedly in exchange for “NO” votes on a Pennsylvania voter ID bill that passed in 2012. Despite this evidence, Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane has not charged any officials. Kane is a Democrat. Kane’s excuse for her inaction? Racism: some of the legislators caught on tape accepting bribes were black Democrats from Philadelphia. From the Philadelphia Inquirer: In a statement to The Inquirer on Friday, Kane called the investigation poorly conceived, badly managed, and tainted by racism, saying it had targeted African Americans. http://articles.philly.com/2014-03-17/news/48269239_1_investigation-kane-ali http://pjmedia.com/jchristianadams/2014/03/19/pa-democrats-took-bribes-to-oppose-voter-id-where-is-holder/ It's a good thing that we can count on the Attorney General to oversee investigations into corrupt politicians when it comes to voter ID laws. Opps, my bad, he's a Democrat too! Nothing to see here, move along citizen, move along... They don't even try to hide corruption anymore.

magley64 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 (edited) so politicians getting paid for votes? That's called a PAC, and it's nothing new. Learned about it when I was a kid watching "the distinguished gentleman" Thomas Jefferson Johnson: Terry, tell me something. With all this money coming in from both sides, how does anything ever get done?Terry Corrigan: It doesn't. That's the genius of the system.

YSR_Racer_99 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 This fits as well here as anywhere else, though its in regard to Toyota. "a blatant disregard for systems and laws designed to look after the safety of consumers. By the company's own admission, it protected its brand ahead of its own customers. This constitutes a clear and reprehensible abuse of the public trust." Replace "the safety of consumers" with "American citizens". For Holder to speak of anything that "constitutes a clear and reprehensible abuse of the public trust" is laughable. Does this open the door for him to throw himself (and his boss) in jail, or institute huge fines? Methinks it does. Talk about a pot and a kettle (and thats NOT a racist inference, Magz).

I WAS indirectly referring to the secrecy that this "most transparent administration in history" has cloaked itself in, starting with Mr. Holder. Oh, and we've already had the voter fraud discussion.

Pennsylvania Democrats were caught on surveillance tape reportedly accepting cash bribes in return for opposing voter ID in the Pennsylvania legislature. Gifts of Tiffany’s jewelry were also given to Democrat legislators from Philadelphia, reportedly in exchange for “NO” votes on a Pennsylvania voter ID bill that passed in 2012. The point of the voter fraud tag was that to get it passed they had to bribe the lawmakers.Paging Eric Holder is referencing the idea that the feds should pick up on a clearly biased AG who will not prosecute her buddies. The sarcasm is for the fact that not prosecuting his buddies is what Eric Holders trademark is and what he is best know for.More sarcasm and derision because its not about crooked Democrats, clearly it's racism, that article says so, it must be true. If we gave given up the rule of law during this administration, which we have from the top on down, the law just doesn't seem to matter anymore. So sure, why not, it isn't corruption it's lollipops or unicorns. The fact this is centered around voting laws and fraud makes it all the more ludicrous. How do we have any serious discussion of voter fraud when our government it shown to be bought so easily? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do we do with situations like this?http://wreg.com/2014/03/20/felons-allowed-to-vote-former-bolivar-official-convicted/Want to guess on what is going to happen on April 11? Which side of your statistic will this case fall on? Let's just make it legal then there won't be any fraud. There you go, problem solved!

Strictly Street Posted March 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 In further revelations that Democrats do not commit voter fraud I give you this gem. No Justice Department Charges Against Ohio Woman Who Voted Six Times for Obamahttp://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/03/22/No-Justice-Department-Charges-Against-Ohio-Woman-Who-Voted-Six-Times-for-ObamaNo Justice Eric Holder is right on top of this one too!Slap on the wrist and you can go now. Wonder what would have happened if she voted for the other guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) LOL the fact that you reference breitbart is proof of your bias. you may as well be referencing conservapedia... also, we already have voter ID laws in ohio, so clearly this couldn't have happened... Voter ID laws in the case of voter fraud shut down that whole thing, making it nearly impossible for those votes to be counted.

smccrory Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 why not write in someone you actually want as president? I'm guessing Tonik wanted to express utter disgust for the entire system, that he doesn't believe that there's anyone worth supporting, or even if there is, they'd never be successful in the millstone as it's defined today. However, you make a fair point if you intended to infer that one shouldn't be against everything because that's what a lot of these jokers want us to do - excuse ourselves from the process altogether and cede complete control to those willing to game the system. The less we care, the more "they" win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I figure Hot and Stupid is an improvement over just Stupid. I had a bumper sticker that said that in the 2004 election. It was epic.
