Did you hear the gun toting idiot say he voted for Ron Paul?
The clown with the gun was on one of the news programs yesterday evening and if I understood him correctly he said, when asked, that he had voted for Ron Paul. MSNBC is also reporting that he moved to New Hampshire a year ago after finding Arizona not to his liking.

That means he voted in New Hampshire or he voted illegally somewhere else. It also means the man is lieing. Ron Paul was not on the New Hampshire ballot, at least if the state is reporting the vote count accurately. Here's a link to the votes cast for President in New Hampshire:

8. So... many people wait months to register their cars, much less
Edited on Wed Aug-12-09 09:10 AM by hlthe2b
to vote... It is hard for local municipalities to crack down on car registration and he wouldn't likely be nailed on driver's license unless he was pulled over for something and even then, some states allow 90 days to do so...In fact, in Colorado, you have to have been in the state 90 continuous days before you are even considered a resident (and eligible to get a license). Even then, he could have delayed further, since all he'd have to say is that "he was just visiting."


It is absolutely conceivable for him to have voted absentee in AZ, while in the process of relocating to NH (even if he'd been there for 3 or 4 or even 5 months). After all, it isn't as though he had to apply for a license for his "open carry" ...

5. And you know why he moved to New Hampshire?
What the Free State Project is... The Free State Project is an effort to recruit 20,000 liberty-loving people to move to New Hampshire. We are looking for neighborly, productive, tolerant folks from all walks of life, of all ages, creeds, and colors who agree to the political philosophy expressed in our Statement of Intent, that government exists at most to protect people's rights, and should neither provide for people nor punish them for activities that interfere with no one else.
