Who is Stealing the Florida Vote?

The collective left is SCREAMING about the “purging of the voter rolls” in Florida and that Governor Scott is “STEALING” the election! From MSNBC host Rachel Maddow to Central Florida’s own Congresswoman Corrine Brown, liberals are calling on Rick Scott to stop validating the voter rolls. Some of this outrage comes from people who have yet to concede the 2000 presidential election. Sun-Sentinel quotes Rep. Alcee Hastings as referring to the 2000 election as “the stolen election”!

Let’s apply some common sense to the situation at hand!

Can we find some common ground here? The goal of reasonable people is to conduct a valid election. In order to safeguard the integrity of the voting process it is essential to verify that each potential ballot comes from an eligible voter. The only way to ensure this happens is to update the voter rolls routinely. The state is in the process of doing this but the Left is trying to convince the public that there is some great CONSPIRACY to steal the election!

Below is a portion of a post at the website of Florida Watch Action calling for anybody who has received a letter from the state about their voter registration to contact them. Florida Watch Action is headed by Susannah Randolph, the former political director of ACORN and also the former campaign manager for Alan “Die-Quickly” Grayson. It is important to note ACORN is the organization that was involved in voter fraud scandals across the country including arrests in Florida and was stripped of all federal funding in 2009. Mrs. Randolph is the wife of state representative Scott Randolph, democrat county chairman who is seeking to be state chairman of the Democrat Party. Last year, Rep. Randolph got the public’s attention when he allegedly physically and verbally attacked fellow democrat, Daphne Campbell, on the floor of the state house.

Removed from the voter rolls? Let us know!

County officials are mailing letters to people who face potential purging from the voter rolls. The letter indicates that the voter is illegally registered to vote and that the very act of casting a ballot would constitute a third-degree felony. The letters also make clear that those who wish to appeal the state’s finding have 30 days to provide evidence of citizenship or their names will be purged from voter rolls. The letters do not specify the documents required to prove one’s citizenship status.

We are working with our partners to stop Pink Slip Rick from stealing the 2012 election. Our first step is contacting people who have received these letters.

The shear IRONY of a former ACORN director accusing somebody of “stealing the election” causes me pause!

Why does the notion of a state-wide voting database in which the validity of each voter is routinely verified strike such fear into these progressive democrats? Florida Watch Action accuses Governor Scott of trying to “steal the 2012 election” by requiring our election supervisors to be vigilant to vulnerabilities in our election process. Voter rolls are being checked and cross referenced. That process requires suspect registrations to be further documented and thus verified. To equate this with criminal activity is just irresponsible!

Another thing I hear from the democrats is that voter fraud is so insignificant that we should not be concerned about it. They have called requiring a photo identification a form of voter suppression. In fact, leaders in the democrat party have asserted that states’ voter ID requirements are racist and equated them to the Jim Crow laws. So-called moderate Senator Bill Nelson participated in this manufactured outrage by hosting a Senate hearing to determine whether these new voter laws violated anybody’s civil rights.

But, let’s remember that the presidential election of 2000 was decided by the state of Florida where it came down to a 537 vote difference. This shows why no amount of fraud can be tolerated or overlooked. We must make sure each vote counts!

We Can All Stay Home In November, Astrologers Say Four More Years Of Obama

NEWS ORLEANS (Reuters) – The votes are in and it is unanimous: Barack Obama will win re-election to the U.S. presidency in November, according to five astrologers who offered predictions at their convention on Tuesday.

Billed as a meeting of the world’s top astrologers, the conference in New Orleans drew some 1,500 people who participated in workshops and panel discussions.

Not to be confused with astronomy, the scientific study of the physical universe, astrology uses non-scientific methods to predict how the relative positions of celestial bodies may influence human behavior and future events.

“The ingress of Saturn into Scorpio may trouble him,” said one astrologer.  “It won’t cost him the election, but it may indicate difficulties in the first half of his second term.”

For conservatives, here’s hoping for a more radical ingress of Saturn…

Obama’s Secret Kill List

The liberal media is trying to rationalize the fact that Obama has a secret “kill” list. And, it could include American citizens. Remember when all we heard from the media was “waterboarding” and “Gitmo”? But, now the media is pondering the necessity of a secret “kill” list and how Obama has to so thoughtfully balance these things. Is there any talk about trying him for “WAR CRIMES” for the “Obama Doctrine of Assassination”? At least with waterboarding, we were able to gather intelligence on other terrorist plots. This paragraph in the New York Times today makes me just laugh at their bias:

New York Times:

Mr. Obama is the liberal law professor who campaigned against the Iraq war and torture, and then insisted on approving every new name on an expanding “kill list,” poring over terrorist suspects’ biographies on what one official calls the macabre “baseball cards” of an unconventional war. When a rare opportunity for a drone strike at a top terrorist arises — but his family is with him — it is the president who has reserved to himself the final moral calculation.

Twitter: Romney v. Obama

Does the thought of another 4 years of Obama in the White House cause you great worry and concern for your children and grandchildren? What are you going to do to make sure Obama does not win re-election? Watching FOX news and sending chain emails to your family is not enough. Each person needs to actively engage in this campaign. If attending tea party rallies or volunteering in the campaign is not something you care to do, I would like to suggest that there is something that you CAN do right from your home. If you have a computer, you can get on Twitter. Twitter is a social media in real time and it can directly influence the national conversation. For instance, when the Obama Campaign staffer, Hillary Rosen, belittled Ann Romney, on cable news, Twitter went into a frenzy with outrage at her comment. Within the hour, David Axelrod and other high level campaign staff took to Twitter to distance Obama from Rosen’s sentiment. By the next day, even Michelle Obama had weighed on the issue of stay-at-home moms.

You are not only one who needs to utilize Twitter. Forbes recently looked into who was winning the battle on Twitter: Romney or Obama. It looks like Romney needs to step up his game.

Hundreds Of Words To Avoid Using Online If You Don’t Want The Govt Spying On You

• Department of Homeland Security forced to release list following freedom of information request
• Agency insists it only looks for evidence of genuine threats to the U.S. and not for signs of general dissent

The Department of Homeland Security has been forced to release a list of keywords and phrases it uses to monitor social networking sites and online media for signs of terrorist or other threats against the U.S.

The list includes obvious choices such as ‘attack’, ‘Al Qaeda’, ‘terrorism’ and ‘dirty bomb’ alongside dozens of seemingly innocent words like ‘pork’, ‘cloud’, ‘team’ and ‘Mexico’.

America Is Solidly And Fundamentally Progressive

The Progressive Left are beside themselves with glee based on the determination by The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur that America is “solidly and fundamentally progressive.”

Uygur made that determination based on three issues; Contraception, Legalized Marijuana and Abortion.  Watch the video and then I’ll explain why what you see is just more propaganda and distortion by the Progressive Left, all carefully designed to advance their agenda.

Remember, tell a lie often enough and people will come to accept it as the truth.

As you see, Uygur cites that 89% of Americans believe contraceptives are morally acceptable, but then goes completely off the deep end when he states Catholics “make sure that they discriminate, even against non-Catholics, in not allowing contraceptives.”  A blatant lie.

And, naturally, there’s no mention of Obama’s mandate that forces Catholics to act outside of their religious beliefs.

Next is the legalization of marijuana.  The poll referenced is Rasmussen, which shows 56 % favor legalization.  Since Rasmussen does not give historical data, we took a look at Gallup data, which reflects a similar outcome.

What is immediately noticeable is there has been a distinct change in the past 5 years – in 2006 60% opposed legalization, compared to 46% in 2011.  In the same time period, 36% approved in 2006, while 50% approved in 2011.

When examining methodology, Gallup conducts surveys via phone, with a 60-40 ratio between landlines and cell phones.  Rasmussen uses online methods instead of cell phones.  And therein lies the probable explanation for the sudden change in results.  Cell phone usage and online activity have exploded during this same time period – just under 15% of the world used cell phones in 2002, while today well over 60% use them.

Older Americans oppose legalization by a far greater percentage than younger Americans, yet are the least represented demographic via cell phones and online activity.  Hmmmm.

Finally, we have abortion and our Young Turk plays the semantic game to the hilt.  He takes great care to frame a specific question; should it be a woman’s choice to decide whether to have an abortion or not?  Which is a different matter altogether from whether abortion should be legal.  He then takes the response to the first question and applies it to the second.

In truth, the numbers who think abortion should be legal are almost identical to where they were in 1977, while the numbers who see themselves as ‘pro-choice’ have been trending down and is now at the lowest point since 1996 at 41%.

So there you have it.  Based on three select issues, where the narrative has been framed on false and misleading information, the proclamation is made that we are a “progressive” country.

Yet, we see the manipulation again and again in both the methodology and the framing of the question. If you ask someone if they want to end wasteful tax giveaways to corporations, how many are going to answer in favor of wasteful giveaways?

As Mark Twain said, there are lies, damn lies and statistics.  While the Far Left and their allies in the media will run with the idea that America is a Progressive nation, the truth is we remain a center-right country.
