2. Cincinnati poll worker sentenced to 5 years for voter fraud in presidential elections:

   She boasted that she voted twice in last November’s presidential election. She was charged with repeatedly voting illegally over three elections using the names of others, including her sister who has been in a coma for a decade. Now 58-year-old Melowese Richardson, a veteran Cincinnati poll worker, will be spending the next five years in prison…

   For the other fliers that frequent this site, here is an interesting video done [over] 15 years ago that is more apt today than it ever has been. (At the end of the equally interesting article)

   * I had no idea of what the significance of Skittles & Arizona Watermelon Ice Tea was…

6. Thanks mark in calgary for the Bill Whittle you tube. Just shows how dishonest the majority of the media were in portraying Travon Martin. Not sure how the laws work around civil suits that the gov. is threatening Zimmerman with but I don’t think these inconvenient FACTS can be covered up.

14. The POTUS of the USA Obama has now been elevated to divine status. Like a Roman emperor to disagree with him, is to be sacrilegious. Deserving of only Jail or a drone attack.
    He has now become for the Collectivist a divine rights leader.
