Pretend this is Frank Capra's sequel to "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,"
which is to say, a battle of honest America versus corruption. In
Capra's day, federal judges would prolly not have been involved in this
deal, because if a state wants to elect corrupt officials, that's their
business. But, what the hell, those days are gone, thanks to Al Gore
and a Democratic party so utterly corrupt that the Marines might well
be needed to stop their attack on American democracy.

Sec. State Jennifer "STD" Brunner
“
|
Ohio's Sec. State Jennifer "STD" Brunner interpreted existing Ohio
law that allowed use of absentee ballots without reason to mean voters
could register to vote and vote at the same time. The Obama campaign,
in league with ACORN, went nuts, which resulted in numerous charges
of falsified registrations being filed. Freddie Johnson being a prime
example.

ACORN and Freddie Johnson
“
|
[Freddie Johnson] told The Post
yesterday he was given cash and cigarettes by aggressive ACORN
activists in exchange for registering an astonishing 72 times, in
apparent violation of Ohio laws.
"Sometimes, they come up and bribe me with a cigarette, or they'll
give me a dollar to sign up," said Freddie Johnson, 19, who filled out
72 separate voter-registration cards over an 18-month period at the
behest of the left-leaning Association of Community Organizations for
Reform Now.
"The ACORN people are everywhere, looking to sign people up. I tell
them I am already registered. The girl said, 'You are?' I say, 'Yup,'
and then they say, 'Can you just sign up again?' " he said. [Read]

U.S. Judge George C. Smith

U.S. Judge George C. Smith ordered Sec. State Brunner
to verify the identity of newly registered voters by matching them with
other government documents. The order was in response to a Republican
lawsuit unrelated to the ACORN probe in Cuyahoga County, in which at
least three people, including Johnson, have been subpoenaed. |

Judges Canker Blossom, and Hussein X
“

Last night, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, 2-1,
(majority not identified, so I'm using stand-ins) vacated Smith's ruling saying Brunner is not required to provide county elections boards with the
names of voters whose personal information does not match state
motor-vehicle or federal Social Security records, as ordered Thursday
by U.S. District Court Judge George C. Smith of Columbus. |

Judge Richard Allen Griffen
“
|
|
Judge Richard Allen Griffen accused the panel majority of both (1) an “astounding and deeply
disturbing” “lack of concern for the integrity of the electoral
process” and (2) a failure to follow the Sixth Circuit’s own internal
procedures by releasing its decision before the full appeals court
could rule on the matter. It is possible that the full Sixth Circuit
will still do so, as a request for that action remains pending. |

During the primary season the Obama camp paid Citizen Service Inc., $832,598 for various political services,
according to Federal Elections Commission filings. That group and ACORN
share the same board of directors.
Now, answer honestly. Are you throwing Milk Duds at the screen and booing? I thought so.
