Robert Greenwald’s Brave New Films has put together this short film about what’s really at the heart of the GOP’s ACORN “voter fraud” scam (appx. 5 mins)…
Our own special coverage page of the GOP’s ACORN “Voter Fraud” Scam is here…
The film above quickly notes the GOP’s nearly identical efforts to swiftboat ACORN in 2000 and 2004, we should point out that today, those same folks are not only doing it again in 2008, they are now sending out private investigators to intimidate voters in NM. And more incredibly, taking the White House politicization of the U.S. DoJ to an unprecedented new level, George W. Bush himself has now asked the DoJ to “investigate” the OH GOP’s allegations of some 200,000 voters after the case was recently rejected by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Further, while the piece above is not bad, it looks like they forgot to include John McCain’s own statement to ACORN, when he was their keynote speaker at a 2006 rally, and told the assembled volunteers they were “what makes America special.” That short video follows below as a reminder…
They invent a conspiracy theory to cover up their own conspiracy…
How about voters, especially new voters, come prepared to the polls with every scrap of ID available? Shove it down the challengers’ throats. We shouldn’t have to, but let’s do everything possible not to get turned away on some bogus trumped-up phony challenge. It’s like an obstacle course. Get registered, have your registration validated and not get thrown out, find the correct polling place, get past the challengers, wait and wait in line, attempt to cast your vote, be prepared to give up the secret ballot of you encounter any problems voting, try not to get arrested when the frustration level reaches the explosion level, and hope and pray that your vote gets recorded, counted, and preserved as you intended. Good Luck With That, America!
Thx, The Wingnuts can’t even get along with each other at their rallys, this is what Limbaugh and Reaganomics have turned this country into
Every man for himself
NEUTRALIZE THE LIES!
Every time you hear a story about “voter fraud” (that virtually non-existent crime that’s being used to shove disenfranchising photo ID laws down our throats), make a donation to a group working for democracy!
Voter fraud is not the same as election fraud.
Thanks for posting this vid, Brad. ACORN is doing great work.
