Margaret, it’s all over now. I’ve said all I can say about these asshats in the Republican Party. The fact that they would prefer to see fewer people voting rather than more should tell us all we need to know. They’re in it for themselves.
But now it’s up to the people. And there are a few Republican Governors who should be ashamed of themselves. Do a little research on Rick Scott and you will quickly find out Florida has a fox in the hen house.
Go out and vote. It’s important. If you don’t vote you’re no better than Scott and his Republican friends in Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Their efforts are proof that Romney has never been about 100% of Americans.
I suggest we offer immigration reform in the form of an immigration exchange program. If you are caught trying to suppress or otherwise discourage voters, we can deport you in exchange for an immigrant who wouldn’t dream of taking democracy for granted. I mean it. Really.

Finger gnawing night, but I am hopeful. Sorry the House remains in republicans hands. Let’s hope that the president wins reelection tonight. If that should come to pass, I am hopefull that since making the president a one-term president would no longer be their priority, our country our country will once again be at the forefront of our elected officials’ agenda.

Oh, yeah, Carl… Rape is about “life”…? Rape is about power, dominance, brutality, and subjugation. It’s an F-ing crime in this country; don’t you know that? If you want to go somewhere it’s not, head for the Middle East.
I left my burkha at the cleaners. Bummer, huh?
Get off our porch, or we will kick the crap out of you. Really. We mean it. You won’t be happy. And you won’t be able to rape anybody.

If Obama wins he and his supporters have the blood of a million babies on their hands. If you believe in God then rape can be seen as life rather than death. Think about what a gift that is. This election is not valid because the United States kicked God and Jesus out of our highest office and put a Muslim in charge.

There should be NO VOTER INTIMITATION, NO VOTER SUPPRESSION and NO ELECTION FRAUD by either side in this country. Show me your links to what you are accusing these Black Panters of doing. I show you mine although if you have been paying attention outside of Fox, The Blaze, Drudge, Washington Times etc you would know what I am taking about.
Voter ID is not the solution to the problem. Perhaps when a child is born he/she should be tatooed with a number across their butt. I did not need an ID when I voted today.
Peace.

Oooh Nooo! Those Black Panthers intimitating people by just standing there.
Lets be honest here. They are not just standing there. They are in military outfits carrying weapons. This is the very definition of voter intimidation. If you cannot at least admit that then your opinion isn’t worth anything.
As for the rest, link your proof or it isn’t true. For the record, any intimidation or any other activity that endangers 1 person 1 vote is bad, no matter which side it is. The fact you are trying to justify the panthers actions based on what someone else did just shows how bias you are.
Voter ID is absolutely needed. 177 people in Minnesota alone were arrested for casting some 1900 fraudulent votes. Every illegal vote cast disenfranchises a legal voter. If you are truly for honest elections, then you should want to do everything we can to ensure it is so.

HI, Mageen – You have a lot of friends out here. I know we can’t be the same as your husband, but we’re all sending all the support we can. Goddess love ya for getting out there and voting today. If there’s goodness somewhere in the world, and it looks like we might be able to get our hands on it, that’s exactly what we should do. You’re a fine example to all of us, as I’m sure you are to your family and “real life” friends.

Oooh Nooo! Those Black Panthers intimitating people by just standing there. But the True the Vote people and others who selectively challenge voters who may vote Democratic are okay with you, right? Asking for ID in states that legally DO NOT require it is okay with you, right? Giving the wrong polling place information or the wrong date to people is okay with you, right? Knocking people off the roles because you don’t like their name or the way they may vote is okay with you, right? But a couple of black people with GREAT BIG BILLY CLUBS just standing there are wrong, right? Really???? Noah, STFUYFA and go spread your doom and gloom bullshit somewhere else!
Peace.

Oh, my goodness, sir…! When the butler brought me your message, I dropped my lorgnette and had to call for my lady’s maid to loosen my corset and bring me some smelling salts… Im afraid your news has brought on a severe case of the vapors…! I’m quite sure I won’t have the strength to appear at His Lordship’s dinner this evening. Please do understand… And ask Cook to bring me some broth and a bit of the 1874 brandy from the cellar.

Good people gathered on the porch, many thanks for your kind thoughts. This is the first of many firsts for me but I know I am not alone. My precinct turned out in force today and swamped the little elementary school. People were in line at 4 AM!!! There was no let-up at 9:40 and I did the endless shuffle dance for an hour before I got to vote. When I left there were even more people in a growing line outside the school. I live in a working class neighborhood. The really gorgeous new big houses you see around me were once little places on slabs. They were bought up by industrious people and rebuilt. Our neighborhood is looking better and better.
Now, must have pie!

Hank, you’re stupid because you don’t seem to know who created this “mess.”
Stupid? This still middle school here? No Obama didn’t create it. Chris Dodd and Barney Frank did. Obama just continued it and perpetuated it in his own way.

No, JC, not yet… But I do see we’ve received our first “excuse,” from Hank…
If Obama wins, it’s because of Sandy. This will undoubtedly soon be followed (in no particular order) by:
Voter fraud
Declining moral fiber of the Nation
Influence of secret Kenyan Muslims
George Soros
Media bias (left-wing liberals… You know, like Rupert Murdoch)
the French
Black Panthers with billy clubs attacking voters
Rabid feministas
Hollywood
College professors
Immigrants
The 47% voting for more government handouts
And so on…

Oh Mageen, so very sorry! Sending every kind of good thought and positive energy your way and will lift you up in any way I can. And I voted at 7:08 this morning our time, thus canceling old UAW’s vote for the dark side, WHOOP!

If Obama wins it will be because the storm shifted the country’s attention away from the mess he put us in. Romney is the man this country needs. You democrats are going to cause the country to crash and burn. You all are too stupid to see that Obama is bad for this country. Romney is a God send!

The title says it all, advocating cheating at the polls. Interesting the Black Panther party is out with the billy clubs again intimidating voters. It is also interesting in the same state that Democrats in charge of voting are barring any GOP from being in the voting areas, kicking some 75 out. Are these the actions of an honest people?

Mageen, I’m so so sorry about the loss of your husband. I wish you the strength and courage you’ll need to adjust to your loss and changed life.
I’m thinking of my mom that I just lost in September…I helped her vote for Obama in 2008 and I’ll be voting for the both of us when I vote for him again today.
