I have many Jewish friends and the conservative ones also do not understand the Dem connection especially when one sees how Israel get’s treated in general . The one basic thing I see missing in most politicians on each side today is basic honesty . That’s why I believe they are scared to death of Sarah Palin ,,,, she’s an honest person I belive . She went after corruption even in her own party , shared the oil profits with her constituates . She speaks plainly and doesn’t sugar coat the bad news and that scares the crap out of most reps in congress .

As they say, “There are no atheists in foxholes.”
Our men and women in uniform don’t have to be polled to find out if God should be included in their “platform.”

Lost ballots, stamped in the wrong spot, didn’t pass through the proper mail bag, didn’t cross a T or dot and I, smudged check mark, past due date, blah, blah, blah. They can vote but that doesn’t mean their votes will be counted correctly. Just like ours won’t be counted correctly somewhere over in Spain under Soros’ rule.

A friend of mine who is a research librarian (compulsively looks everything up to get the facts right) and a military wife with a deployed husband, says:
“I appreciate the concern of well intentioned people who enacted the requirement of voting assistance offices for absentee military personnel. However, no additional funding was provided for this service, and it is the military’s job to prov
ide it. So, it becomes an additional duty for personnel, which means they’re not doing their assigned job while staffing the voter help desk. Honestly, bases don’t need a walk-in voting assistance office. The forms could easily be distributed to family support services where they could be made available along with computer access to EAC.gov - most, if not all of these offices already provide free internet access to personnel and their dependents. The most important piece of information that must be gotten to all military personnel is that they MUST submit a new FCPA (absentee ballot request) prior to the November election. This is a NEW requirement that most active duty military voters do not know nor understand why. Walk-in offices squirreled away wherever the base can afford to put them will not solve this communication problem.”
She advised that members of the military should go online at fvpa.gov to request their FCPA form. Right away.
Now is the time to get this info out to your deployed friends and relatives.

You SAID it. This is Cornyn’s usual tap dance. He is too cool for school until about a year out from his own re-election! The rest of the time he is chairman of this-or-that committee and just can’t possibly make a peep on anything “political”. He is simply working on his resume for re-election.
Primary Cornyn!

Huh?
Republicans seeking enforcement of constitutional requirements which eliminate the dead and foreigners from the ballot box is a problem for you?

No. Neither does it surprise me that the Democrats retaliate by trying their own stunts to make it harder for natural GOP voting blocks. It's how the game is played these days.
