Republicans: They're all a bunch of crooks.

His organizations pretended to be non-partisan, and were signing people up in libraries. However, the Democratic registrations got shreaded, and the news didn't break until after the registration deadline. Do you Republicans actually condone this? Are you all a bunch of unethical crooks?

Does every Democrat condone the fact that so many dead people voted for Kennedy in Chicago?

We're talking about 2004, not 1960.

That was some other stuff they did, I suppose you don't want to talk about the illegal registration shreading?

Um, registering voters as Republicans does absolutely nothing to help them win elections. All it affects is what party you vote in for primary elections.

Paying money to an organization to register people is not a 'crook' thing to do.

Granted, but shreding Democratic forms is.

Actually it isn't.  As a private citizen, neither you, I or this guy has any requirement to do anything with voter registration forms, including throwing them out.

Keep in mind that voter registration can be done via mail or at any government office (post, welfare, some libraries).  Anyone can get one; they don't even charge postage.

As for "re-registering," big deal.  You can register Nazi and go in and vote for Kerry in the fall.

Busted again. It's illegal to take completed voter registration forms and not turn them in. This wasn't a private individual, they "appeared" to be non-partisan and were signing people up in public libraries. How nice of you to condone this.

And once the story broke, it was too late, Nevada's and Oregon's deadlines had already passed.

Wrong again.  As noted, the law applies to registars and governmental employees.  As I've indicated, we don't live in a Stalinist nation.  Or are you claimimng Sproul is a postman?

No, the law applies to anyone who accepts Democratic voter registrations. They could have refused to accept the registrations, but once they took them, they were required by law to submit them.

If you don't see a problem with making people think they're registered when they're not, you're another curropt Republican. An example of why your party shouldn't have any power.

Of course not!  None of us are!  And I'm shocked you would even ask such a question!   

You need to read a few more jfern posts then.

J.J. is trying to argue that it's legal.

Do you have any actual proof, as in something other than heresay from some person with an anti-GOP bias, that shreading occured?

If so, please provide documentation.
