Obama's campaign staff pull their fraudulent Ohio ballots

BAM STAFFERS PULL THEIR BOGUS OHIO BALLOTS - New York Post

Thirteen campaign workers for Barack Obama yesterday yanked their voter registrations and ballots in Ohio after being warned by a prosecutor that temporary residents can't vote in the battleground state.

A dozen staffers - including Obama Ohio spokeswoman Olivia Alair and James Cadogan, who recently joined Team Obama - signed a form letter asking the Franklin County elections board to pull their names from the rolls...

move on folks, nothing to see here, these are just guys and gals Obama knows from the neighborhood...

Obama Praised 'Searing and Timely' Book by Ayers


Obama Praised 'Searing and Timely' Book by Ayers - FOXNews.com Elections

Barack Obama, who has consistently downplayed his relationship with William Ayers during his presidential campaign, once gave a glowing endorsement of a book by the former domestic terrorist and was mentioned by name in the book itself.

Remember folks, this is NOT about whether Obama is a terrorist. No one thinks Obama is a terrorist. This about the type of people Barack Obama chooses to associate with. Not people who he just happens to know - people he chooses to know. It goes to the heart of the character of Obama himself that he has to distance himself from everyone who has had a significant impact on his life.

His friend and co-worker of ten years, Bill Ayers - who's "just a guy" in his neighborhood

His friend and major fundraiser, Tony Rezko - Whose name he will not speak.

His priest of 20 years, Jeremiah Wright - whose sermons he apparently never listened to.

His friend, Khalid al-Mansour, former Black Panther leader that helped get him into Harvard - um...who???

His neighbor of 15 years, Minister Louis Farrakhan - apparently Obama doesn't know who he is.

None of these people would disqualify Obama from running for President - so why does Obama insist on minimizing his relationships with people who obviously had so much of an effect on his life?

Remember people, the trouble with Clinton wasn't that he had oral sex with an intern in the White House (no matter how much the Democrats want you to think it was). It was about his dishonesty about it - both under oath and with the American people. Character matters people!

ACORN Voter Fraud in NM

Amanda Carpenter : ACORN Voter Fraud in NM - Townhall.com

The liberals defending ACORN's fraudulent voter registration efforts have said again and again voter registration fraud doesn't lead to voter fraud.

Well, we didn't have to wait till Election Day to find out they're wrong.

The Associated Press reported Friday that the New Mexico GOP found 28 people who voted fraudulently in Albuquerque during the June Democratic primary by absentee ballot. One of the ballots was cast from someone named "Duran-Duran"

The GOP's review was conducted in House District 13 and only included 92 ballots. That means roughly a third of the ballots examined found by the GOP were fraudulent.

Obama Campaign Involved in More Cover-Ups in ACORN Scandal | Cleveland Leader

Obama Campaign Involved in More Cover-Ups in ACORN Scandal Cleveland Leader

On Thursday we revealed the connection between Barack Obama and Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), and uncovered a 2004 article that discussed his involvement with the organization which had recently been removed from the web. Today, the cover-ups continue and language on Obama's fightthesmears.com website has been altered in order to make it look like he has been telling the truth about his ACORN associations all along.

Fortunately, we and many others online know how to do a screen capture and how to use a little something called Google Cache.

As of yesterday, Fightthesmears.com stated:

Fact: Barack was never an ACORN trainer and never worked for ACORN in any other capacity.

Sometime on Friday, the website was altered, and the text was changed to state:

Fact: ACORN never hired Obama as a trainer, organizer, or any type of employee.

The mere fact that his campaign has now changed the language of the site shows that they have conceded the fact that their original remark was a bold-face lie. As a lawyer Sen. Obama should know the importance of language.

The original statement implied that he had no working connection with ACORN, whereas the new statement now insists that he has never been employed or hired by ACORN.

It is good to see the truth finally come out now, but why were they trying to hide his association with ACORN, and what else is Obama lying to us about? Perhaps the biggest question now is how and why they got the Social Policy article stricken from most of the world wide web in the first.place. What are they trying to hide?

NUTS! - HOW ACORN GOT ME INTO VOTE SCAM

NUTS! - New York Post JEANE MacINTOSH, Post Correspondent

Christopher Barkley

Christopher Barkley

CLEVELAND - Two Ohio voters, including Domino's pizza worker Christopher Barkley , claimed yesterday that they were hounded by the community-activist group ACORN to register to vote several times, even though they made it clear they'd already signed up.

Barkley estimated he'd registered to vote "10 to 15" times after canvassers for ACORN, whose political wing has endorsed Barack Obama, relentlessly pursued him and others.

Claims such as his have sparked election officials to probe ACORN.

"I kept getting approached by folks who asked me to register," Barkley said. "They'd ask me if I was registered. I'd say yes, and they'd ask me to do it [register] again.

"Some of them were getting paid to collect names. That was their sob story, and I bought it," he said.

Barkley is one of at least three people who have been subpoenaed by the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections as part of a wider inquiry into possible voter fraud by ACORN. The group seeks to register low-income voters, who skew overwhelmingly Democratic.

"You can tell them you're registered as many times as you want - they do not care," said Lateala Goins, 21, who was subpoenaed.

"They will follow you to the buses, they will follow you home, it does not matter," she told The Post.

She added that she never put down an address on any of the registration forms, just her name.

A third subpoenaed voter, Freddie Johnson, 19, filled out registration cards 72 times over 18 months, officials said...

I'm confused. If Obama's ideas are so far superior to McCain's and everyone think Obama should be President - why do they have to cheat?

The Home Stretch - A call to action


Okay folks, it's time to get it ramped up! Four weeks to go until election day and the race is still very close. I am certain that there will be more and more stories out there about Obama and William Ayers, Tony Rezko and a host of others coming out. The democrats will call this "swift boating". I call it bringing out the truth and not leaving your opponent the luxury of creating a good lie in response.

I, myself, will be posting stories that have more and more of an impact. Some of them are things I've resisted posting before because I was hoping not to get too serious about the election. I was hoping America would figure out who this guy is long before now. But it hasn't.

It is time that Mr. Obama come clean on Bill Ayers. It is time for Obama to provide some details on what he considers "responsible" when it comes to off-shore drilling, nuclear power, Iraq withdrawal, etc. Everything Obama is really against, he says he would do if it can be done "responsibly". We need to know what this means. It is time for Obama to own up to his votes on the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. It is time for Obama to tell America why his chief economic advisor is one of the people most largely responsible for the mortgage mess we are in. It is time for Obama to come clean on his dealings with ACORN. It is time for Obama to answer the questions about almost $200 million in unidentified campaign contributions.

To the Mad Sociologist and any other people who disagree with me - sorry. This is my blog and you've got yours. I am more than happy to debate, discuss and disagree and I actually enjoy doing so. But make no mistake - my purpose over the next four weeks is to do everything I ethically can to help get John McCain and Sarah Palin elected. This means there will be no lies posted here, but there will be plenty of questions and plenty of information that I believe people need to know.

To those on "our side": It is time for you to do your part to ensure that our country does not fall into the hands of a liberal President, liberal House and liberal Senate with two liberal Supreme Court justices about to retire. There is too much at stake.

Our party is not perfect - far from it. We have some corrupt politicians, money coming from places it shouldn't and people who put their best interests before our country's. We will deal with them. We must if we are to survive. But allowing the Democrats complete control over this mess they have helped create is not an acceptable solution.

I believe that John McCain and Sarah Palin will do whatever they can to root out this kind of crap from our government. They will not be completely successful but they will be a step in the right direction. If they step on some Republican toes to get it done - then maybe those toes need stepped on.

Your job, dear readers, is to visit here frequently and let people know about this site and other sites like it. Don't let the lies go unanswered.

ACORN Vegas Office Raided in Voter Fraud Investigation

 ACORN is at again...or should I say "still".  Obama will distance himself further from these guys than he will from Bill Ayers or Tony Rezko...

ACORN Vegas Office Raided in Voter Fraud Investigation - FOXNews.com Elections

Nevada state authorities seized records and computers Tuesday from the Las Vegas office of an organization that tries to get low-income people registered to vote, after fielding complaints of voter fraud.

Bob Walsh, spokesman for the Nevada secretary of state's office, told FOXNews.com the raid was prompted by ongoing complaints about "erroneous" registration information being submitted by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, also called ACORN.

Obama Claims He Never Worked For ACORN


It appears that Obama and Biden have gone to the same school for lying.  The folks at Sweetness & Light, as usual, have done a phenomenal investigative job to uncover blatant falsehoods from the Obama/Biden camp.

Now that America is getting to know ACORN for the organization that it really is, Obama wants nothing to do with them.

ACORN Faking Voter Registration Again!

ACORN Faking Voter Registration Again! | Sweetness & Light

Bad voter applications found

Clerks see fraudulent, duplicate forms from group

BY L.L. BRASIER • FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER • September 14, 2008

Several municipal clerks across the state are reporting fraudulent and duplicate voter registration applications, most of them from a nationwide community activist group working to help low- and moderate-income families.

The majority of the problem applications are coming from the group ACORN, Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, which has a large voter registration program among its many social service programs. ACORN’s Michigan branch, based in Detroit, has enrolled 200,000 voters statewide in recent months, mostly with the use of paid, part-time employees.

“There appears to be a sizeable number of duplicate and fraudulent applications,” said Kelly Chesney, spokeswoman for the Michigan Secretary of State’s Office. “And it appears to be widespread.”

Imagine that...

Cuyahoga board probes ACORN voter registration drive

from Cleveland.com/Metro by Joe Guillen

A national organization that conducts voter registration drives for low-income people has curtailed its push in Cuyahoga County after the Board of Elections accused its workers of submitting fraudulent registration cards...Board employees are unsure how many of the cards are fraudulent. But the voter registration department received so many suspicious cards that it began compiling a binder with evidence. The binder grew to be an inch-thick...more

ACORN is well known for its voter fraud efforts...umm...I mean 'inexperienced workers making honest mistakes'.

The really scary thing is how good they are at it and how often they get away with it. Remember, Ohio was the 'Florida' of the 2004 presidential election. Kerry's folks tried like hell to get the story going that votes weren't counted there. Now there are upwards of 85,000 "new" registered voters in Cleveland. I wonder what party they are?
