You’re helping disenfranchise dead people.
I hope you realize, Ms. Werk, that these type of Hitleresque, racist attacks on the integrity of Baracorn Obama only serve to distract people from the real kitchen table economic issues that result from trying to bake a bigger economic pie for the 6,000 voters on the Dallas Cowboys starting roster.
Scary how much our Canuck Orange Leader looks like the US Acorn Leader, they must use the same barber too.
Saul Alinsky must be looking down with pride on his acolyte.
@ Larry, true he looks at lot like Jack Lenin who looks a lot like the video professor.
I loved the little guy who had signed over 70.
This all came as a great surprise to me because I didn’t know the Demos were dishonest, or even capable of rigging an election.
Perhaps it’s time that the US and Canada adopt a technique to prevent voter fraud that is used throughout the third world and places where the UN monitors elections:
When a voter receives their ballot, they have to dip their thumb into an ink that can’t be washed off…it takes several days to wear off. That way, the scruiteneers just say ‘show us your thumbs’ when voters come in. If it is clean of the ink, you get to vote.

1)- all voters required to show photo ID

Doesn’t matter. Sarah Palin kills animals and has a large family with a dedicated husband… and she’s smokin’ gorgeous. And she’s white.
Therefore Obama must win.
I listen to Montreal sports talk, and I heard a political announcement that if you showed up on election day “With proper ID”, you could register and vote! I can’t believe that Canada is such a fascist country that that ID is required before voting.
During the 2004 election Al Franken had a saying on his Air America radio program, it was: “Vote early and vote often.”
The idea of fixing the election has been openly hinted at by the radical left in America for quite awhile. The left can’t believe that they ever lose an election, after all, everyone they know votes Democrat, so they think that the Republicans have been fixing the elections for many years. This mistaken belief then justifies them voting multiple times and registering dead people to vote Democrat, because in their minds it is “for the good of the people.”
Funny how an accepted form of ID is a Driver’s License. I don’t know how being able to drive a car legally makes you a Canadian citizen.
“Funny how an accepted form of ID is a Driver’s License”
It is better than not requiring any ID, which is the case in the vast majority of the US. You just move from polling place to polling place with a list of fake registrations.
If a Muslim can vote with their face covered, I’ll be voting with a balaclava over my face, with a birth certificate and a bank statement as my ID (neither of which has a picture, but which are shown on EC’s website as acceptable ID). Sauce for the goose…
Trying to stop this ‘voter equality’ is discrimination and trampling under the right of Democrats to ever have a chance of winning in an election. Fascist, right-wing neo-nazi’s!
Reminds me of the rumours that JFK won by election fraud. Could be some truth to that.

Since I knew Saul quite well, (did some work with him when I was young) I don’t share quite the same view.
While his tactics had very radical parts to them I think he feared using dead people to vote. He always carried golashes to keep dry (his mother told him) So he wouldn’t have been able to keep up with the speedsters. their fast because they need to be!

Our ‘picture id’s are in a flux, -provincial address change and as you may (or not) know they take your photo id and issue temporary paper documents, permits etc, stating that it’s acceptable without photo.
We opted to try to vote in advance polls in case this was going to be a problem, but it wasn’t as we had contacted our local MP’s office and they informed us as to what was required for us to registered and be eligible to vote.

WSJ: Obama and Acorn
Acorn uses various affiliated groups to agitate for “a living wage,” for “affordable housing,” for “tax justice” and union and environmental goals, as well as against school choice and welfare reform. It was a major contributor to the subprime meltdown by pushing lenders to make home loans on easy terms, conducting “strikes” against banks so they’d lower credit standards.
But the organization’s real genius is getting American taxpayers to foot the bill. According to a 2006 report from the Employment Policies Institute (EPI), Acorn has been on the federal take since 1977. For instance, Acorn’s American Institute for Social Justice claimed $240,000 in tax money between fiscal years 2002 and 2003. Its American Environmental Justice Project received 100% of its revenue from government grants in the same years. EPI estimates the Acorn Housing Corporation alone received some $16 million in federal dollars from 1997-2007. Only recently, Democrats tried and failed to stuff an “affordable housing” provision into the $700 billion bank rescue package that would have let politicians give even more to Acorn…

If McCain can articulate the fact there’s only one human race, he’d be on the winning path.
That way, he can point out how financial laws were not followed and how one person, one vote is a democratic principle.
Fraud and dishonest cannot be legitimized as a means to social justice. Hang on, it already has been in the US.

That sounds accurate to me. It seems that the radical left has co-opted everything from the environmental movement to racial equality under a blanket of political correctness.
A stealth Marxism protected from scrutiny by cries of catastrophic human suffering and racism when their nefarious aims and methods are exposed.
All this in an effort to silence the polite silent majority while advancing their socialist cause. Aided and abetted by a left leaning MSM they rely on the squeamishness of many towards honest confrontation and the threat of social ostracization for those who dare question them.
The same can be said of Canada in spades.

Some quotes from Saul Alinsky, hero and mentor of the left – including Barak Obama: http://tinyurl.com/3es9yu
Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life.
The greatest enemy of individual freedom is the individual himself.
History is a relay of revolutions.
A racially integrated community is a chronological term timed from the entrance of the first black family to the exit of the last white family.
Once you accept your own death, all of a sudden you’re free to live. You no longer care about your reputation. You no longer care except so far as your life can be used tactically to promote a cause you believe in.
For those who haven’t time to google ‘Clowerd-Piven Stategy’, here’s the Coles Notes version:
“the “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.”
“Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, wrote Cloward and Piven, activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system; the collapse of the welfare state would ignite a political and financial crisis that would rock the nation; poor people would rise in revolt; only then would “the rest of society” accept their demands.”
“Cloward-Piven’s early promoters cited radical organizer Saul Alinsky as their inspiration. “Make the enemy live up to their (sic) own book of rules,” Alinsky wrote in his 1989 book Rules for Radicals. When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judaeo-Christian moral tenet, and every implicit promise of the liberal social contract, human agencies inevitably fall short. The system’s failure to “live up” to its rule book can then be used to discredit it altogether, and to replace the capitalist “rule book” with a socialist one.”
The American election is definitely going to be a “be careful what you wish for” choice.
Sorry folks, I should have added one more line from the article regarding Cloward-Piven, as it relates directly to what we are seeing in the U.S. today…. IOW, “if the election doesn’t go our way, there may be riots in the streets”.
“Their article called for “cadres of aggressive organizers” to use “demonstrations to create a climate of militancy.” Intimidated by threats of black violence.”
Rats. Just read a little further into the article and was reminded of Obama’s conversation with an American plumber, suggesting that he had a duty to allow his income to be ‘redisributed’ to those “behind him” (meaning those who don’t/won’t work as hard as the plumber himself).
“Carefully orchestrated media campaigns, carried out by friendly, leftwing journalists, would float the idea of “a federal program of income redistribution,”

The Cloward-Pevin strategy begat the Project Vote:
“In 1982, partisans of the Cloward-Piven strategy founded a new “voting rights movement,” which purported to take up the unfinished work of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Like ACORN, the organization that spear-headed this campaign, the new “voting rights” movement was led by veterans of George Wiley’s welfare rights crusade. Its flagship organizations were Project Vote and Human SERVE, both founded in 1982. Project Vote is an ACORN front group, launched by former NWRO organizer and ACORN co-founder Zach Polett.”
Having now set the context, here’s a direct quote from the erstwhile future President, Barak Obama:
“I’ve been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran Project Vote voter registration drive in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciate your work. — Barack Obama, Speech to ACORN, November 2007”
