Brilliant.

The pdf I saw posted here didn't have the August 11th date on it - this had to be a different (second? third?) run.

The PO box they claim will count their votes is actually rented by 2 pro-life groups.

Where is DOJ?

1. Probably too busy going after some whistleblowers!
Or cancer patients.

11. exactly,. where is the accountability for this?
This is clearly anti-democratic vote manipulation done by an evil wealthy group that should be made to pay for it,. people should go to jail, money and property should be seized,. but alas we live in a one party system. the Obama junta will hold NOBODY to account for anything is seems. The rich get to do what ever dastardly deeds they see fit,. and no justice is ever even attempted.

Will the weak (non-wealthy) ever stand up to the wealthy and overwhelming them with their righteous numbers,. pitchforks, and torches? Or will they stay down on their knees, afraid to bite the hand that feeds them,. .

15. Welcome to DU, civilstation.
The wealthy/elite have a whole different set of (non) laws to follow. Sadly, "they" claim that William Holder is in charge of the DOJ. I question whether he actually exists. There are more Elvis sightings than Holder sightings.

Oddly enough, the "hand that feeds them," no longer does much feeding....

9. has a judge ordered that the post office sort out any ballots sent to the wrong PO #?
they should, and they should be counted into the total even if 2 days late, due to election fraud.

13. So, here is the hydra that was unleashed by
Kennedy, Scalia, Alito, Roberts and Thomas... voter fraud is now a part of elections. Interfering in an election is still a crime, isn't it?

16. When will they get their "comeuppance?"
"they" want us to believe that "evil" people will go to hell and be tortured eternally. All we can really know is that we are here now, alive and living in a dysfunctional country.

Waiting for the thieves to be punished is absurd. We need to take care of that NOW.

17. Good to see Colbert fine tuning his arrows these days..
and zeroing in on events/issues and matters of very serious concern more precisely while still managing to be funny/entertaining at the same time. Now that is a level of talent and brilliance I find admirable and worthy of high praise.. :applause: :thumbsup:

18. Tried a Google search on "Americans for Prosperity election fraud."

34 results. Mostly blogs.

Lots out there on bear attacks, though.

20. More chilling than funny, but it's the Kochs' world, and we are meant to merely grovel in it.
