Hoffman: Voter Fraud In NY-23

ACORN used again as a call to the mob is ridiculous because ACORN has never affected the final tallies. Voter fraud is different from election fraud: one involves fake names that don't hold water at the voting booth, and the other involves actual corrupting of election outcome as in the case of Rove's tinkering with election fraud in Ohio in 2004, voter caging that same election and purging of voter rolls in both 2000 and 2004.

The manufactured outrage designed to cause uproar and hope in the community of the permanent, willingly ignorant is a deplorable measure for this losing candidate to take. And really, the guy didn't even have a working knowledge of the district he was running for - that in itself should qualify for true...

Shocker: Palin #1

Because conservative book wholesalers bought a boat load of the drivel to drive up the numbers so it looks like a 'best seller', and then they pawn them off to sites like Townhall and Human Events to give away as a trade off for signing on to their bunk. In reality, Palin can't even counter the Clintons in book sales - legitimate book sales, that is.

A few years ago, Coulter and the rest had a significant hissy fit over this conservative practice of snapping up all the books wholesale and giving them away. It means far, far less money for the authors even as they are made out to look like best sellers. Sweet!
Cantor's sleezy whine
Cantor uses these venues not to promote positive change, but to attack the Obama administration. At his last 'job fair' in August, he whined about the stimulus being an "utter failure", but as the Washington Post has noted, nearly half of the “30 organizations participating” in Cantor’s event “were recipients of the stimulus.”

The job fair at which Cantor trashed the stimulus wouldn’t have been possible were it not for the stimulus.

* So far, "the stimulus has injected over $5 billion into Virginia, creating or saving at least 5,900 jobs. The money has helped local governments avoid budget cuts and layoffs, while spurring private investment by funding infrastructure and other critical projects"....

I do know that trusting the insurance industry to do the 'right' thing while being profit-based has certainly NOT worked out at all. You may say that you are happy with your healthcare, but the truth is your coverage premiums are heading skyward, and there is far more bureaucracy injected in between the doctor and the patient now than you could ever claim with healthcare reform.

And just what is it you find so indefensible about the House bill, SJA? Is the tiny portion who would qualify for the public option might have a choice and insurance industry might have the true competition you so obviously embrace the free market for? Or is it the fact that paying for the cost of having most Americans insured so that they may live...
The thing is, to be caught with one's pants down - like the so-called petition of 31K "scientists" who say climate change is a hoax, perhaps? - usually only occurs when politicizing ideology is involved. Sound familiar? It should, you guys do it ALL the time, and are caught in the act to such a hilarious degree that one would think you'd give up trying to fool anyone. But then, we see how it works so very well in the land of ignorance and panty-bunchers.
I think you overuse the "majority" of Americans angle. Please cite a link that proves your point that a majority are against gay marriage and we'll talk.

Instead, the "we" that I am referring to is that small group of haters that you seem to be part of. How sad.
If you were "furious" at Bush and GOP, why is it you wingnuts supported and defended their gross failures with the unified force of an army of angry weasels? In retrospect, you guys are leaders in revisionist history, but don't try to sell us on the fact that you did not, indeed, call anyone who voiced dissent over the desperate failings of Bush/GOP leadership un-American, un-patriotic and unhinged.

The point isn't that it's doctored - Townhall used this doctored piece as a serious 'kudos' to a woman who undoubtedly would NEVER DARE make such a gesture.

It's a discredit to TH that they continue to mix up satire AND lies with reality - and you don't seem to get that, naturally.
You're right. He is AWESOME!
