Stealing an election

There’s no time now, but after the election, even if McCain wins, get John Fund’s new book, Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy,  published by Encounter Books.  Note that the far-left Media Matters organization froths at the mouth at the mere mention of the title, a sure sign a honest observer has it right.

If you think voting systems prevent fraud, read this:

13 Obama staffers, including the 2 Obama Ohio spokesmen, either voted or intended to vote in Ohio, in obvious violation of the state’s campaign laws.

Voter fraud is like an iceberg — what you see is merely a fraction of the whole.  Assume the ratio is only 10 to 1 – that means there are still 127 frauds.  Add to that the 13 students registered at a single address and it doubles.  Add the dirty work of ACORN and the refusal of the Ohio Secretary of State to precheck the 200,000 no-match forms she has admitted having, and it’s certainly enough to swing a state — and an election.

And which party is it that always blocks requiring photo id at the polls?  That would be the party which stands to profit from voter fraud — Democrats.

UPDATE:  Forget DoJ action on voter fraud.  Obama donors at Justice have decided to drop prosecutors from the teams they’ve sent to voting places for years:

Yeah, yeah, I know it’s not illegal for DoJ employees to make political contributions, and a few made them to McCain, but shouldn’t it be department policy NOT to?

Killing the questionner

Florida’s WFTV-Channel 9 did a satellite interview with Sen. Joe Biden and asked some tough questions:

In retaliation, the campaign has cut off the station’s access to the candidates and their wives.  If Obama wins, Channel 9 can expect its next FCC licensing renewal to go badly.  You think I exaggerate?  Not at all — the same “community organizing” tactics which worked so well to make housing affordable by having government coerce lenders to make bad loans, will also work by demanding that stations have more “local” content and more balance, even though consumers don’t want it.  And the slick thing is that they won’t even need to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine to achieve their goals.

An illegal president?

U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick has rejected the suit by attorney Philip J. Berg, who alleged that Obama was not a U.S. citizen and is therefore ineligible for the presidency.

http://apnews.myway.com/article/20081025/D941NCJG0.html

Surrick’s reasoning was that Berg, who is a Democrat and rather  eccentric, lacked standing to bring the case, saying any harm from an allegedly ineligible candidate was “too vague and its effects too attenuated to confer standing on any and all voters.”

What to make of a judge who finds that violating the Constitution has no effect on any voter?  Surrick was part of the deal Republicans struck with Democrats for a vote on FEC nominee Bradley Smith in 2000, meaning he is a Clinton appointee. Does that make you wonder?  It should.  After all, the lawsuit claiming McCain wasn’t a natural-born U.S. citizen because he was born in the Panana Canal Zone was dismissed on actual facts and history, not merely a judge’s belief.

This decision makes this column from Canada all the more important:

Obama’s spending spree

The DC Examiner editorial lays out some of Obama’s spending wish list:

http://www.dcexaminer.com/opinion/The_Coming_Obama_Spending_Explosion.html

I especially like Obama’s own Global Poverty Act that would commit $845 billion in new foreign aid through 2015, by handing over your money to the United Nations.

Obama has another bill, safely hidden in committee at present, which would PROHIBIT the federal government from using 3-D and 4-D technology to estimate our oil and gas reserves.  You think he’s protecting the public from same untested, worthless method?  Not exactly.  He wants to force the feds to use the same technology which the oil and gas producers used many years ago, and brought in about 1 well out of every 10 drilled in a good year. The 3-D technology allows them to bring in 5 wells for every 10, and the newest, 4-D, brings in 7 out of 10.

Obama doesn’t want you to know the true extent of our domestic reserves, lest you accuse him of being a bald-faced liar for saying we have “only 3% of the world’s reserves, but use 25% of them.”  The 3% figure omits the Bakken fields, the Artic National Wildlife Reserve, all of the shale oil in the West, coastal Alaska — well, you get the idea.

And despite his claim to love clean coal technology, he has no intention of actually allowing it to be used, so Joe Biden was actually right about that.  We have the world’s largest coal reserves, and haven’t once done what the Germans did for years – remove entire towns in order to mine the coal beneath them.
