Why is it a simple mistake when its a white guy; but fraud when it's a person of color? And since when does a bush ever go to jail?

Not over this. McCabe's arguments in the Fat Boy's defense were utter ridiculous, but so were Thom's arguments for going after him.

Thom's unspoken underlying premise was we should go after the Fat Boy in order to mock GOP voter fraud laws. The solution to GOP voter fraud laws is to repeal them.

On the other hand, if you want to look into the Fat Boy's role in the election fraud that made the Frat Boy president, and come up with a case you can take to court, by all means, do so.

So you want to be "Hispanic" good let some anglo take away your land, become unemployed, credit rating what credit rating, just because you live with a Hispanic doesn't make you such. That is why I thought it was so stupid that some people heard GW Bush speak his crooked Spanish and voted for him, how did that turn out??
