No Election fraud here

[Vance2335]

Many liberals are adamant there is no threat of voter fraud that justifies efforts to improve the integrity of elections. “There is no real concrete evidence of voter fraud,” tweeted Donna Brazile, former acting chair of the Democratic National Committee, this week. “It’s a big *** lie.”

James O’Keefe, the guerilla filmmaker who brought down the ACORN voter-registration fraudsters in 2010 and forced the resignation of NPR executives, politely disagrees. Today, he is releasing some new undercover footage that raises disturbing questions about ballot integrity in Colorado, the site of fiercely contested races for the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House, and the governorship. When he raised the issue of filling out some of the unused ballots that are mailed to every household in the state this month, he was told by Meredith Hicks, the director of Work for Progress, a liberal group funded by Democratic Super PACS.: “That is not even like lying or something, if someone throws out a ballot, like if you want to fill it out you should do it.”

Ooof.  No name calling?

I'm not sure I understand the difference between "dolt" and "misguided".  One gets away with it, the other the penalty box?

I'm not the least bit surprised. Vocabulary isn't your strong suit......
Teeheehee

So Barb I understand about name calling...how about personal insults like the one poster above me?

the reality of the situation is he didn’t document one actual instance of voter fraud being committed.

In typical O’Keefe fashion, the self-proclaimed muckraker donned disguises and pretended to be a liberal activist while speaking with volunteers at liberal non-profit organizations who were working on voter registration and mobilization drives. In a few instances that he caught on video, he was able to convince some of these other activists that utilizing unused mailed ballots to vote for Democrats was a good idea. Colorado is one of three states that has an all mail-in voting system. O’Keefe presented various scenarios to the activists in the video where he’d be able to get a hold of unused ballots. He was able to get some of them to agree that it was a good idea.

Research is a good idea it seems

I believe the term "misguided" was originally aimed at me, in another thread, and I didn't really take it as an "insult"... I took it as an error in judgement because one side of the political arena often believes the other side to be misguided, particularly, those who are intolerant of other views.

Personal insults or attacks, however, are not to be tolerated, any more than name calling, and in future will be deleted, as well.
