    There you go, blaming US for YOUR screw UP!! Had you done it right in the first place, we wouldn't be able to delay, or play prevent defense. NOOOO, you guys where in such a hurry to get it in place to defeat Obama, you screwed it up!

    Its like the debt ceiling crisis last summer that cost us a credit ratings drop, and led to a stop gap deal, and this coming sequester. Your zeal to push your agenda has screwed up everything, and its come back to bite you in the butt.

    When do you guys take responsibility for YOUR own actions, starting with GWB?

    That's funny coming from the side who still blames Bush for everything and won't take responsibility for anything except what anyone would do, kill bin Laden.

    Back to that voter fraud thing... Rep Jim Moran's son was caught:

    Quote:

    Project Veritas has released a new investigation that exposes Representative Jim Moran’s Field Director, Patrick Moran, conspiring to commit election fraud.

    When approached by an undercover investigator for advice on how to steal the votes of more than 100 people, Moran advised falsifying documents to satisfy Virginia’s new voter ID law. He said, “Bank statement obviously would be tough, but they can fake a utility bill with ease.”

    Moran went on to clarify that, “You’d have to forge it.”

    Announcing the release, James O’Keefe said, “This is the most damning evidence to date of the scope of voter fraud in this country. Patrick Moran is not only the son of an 11-term Congressman, but is also the Field Director on his father’s re-election campaign.

    “If anyone should be opposed to voter fraud it’s him. Yet he actively encouraged our investigator to forge documents and pose as a pollster to disenfranchise registered voters in Virginia, Washington, D.C. and Maryland.”

    No one can correct an 8 year mistake in 4 especially when you guys won't help, and are part of the problem.

    Has he been charged? It sounds like a nasty offence.

    YOU guys don't buy the truth, or the facts.

    But you buy the Romney lies! Before he agreed with the president of course!

    As usual you ignore the issue in trying to make a puerile point.

    Hello again,

    Thank goodness I'm watching FOX. I've been wondering what the reason is that the Secretary of State in Ohio wanted to eliminate 3 days of early voting... I've even asked here several times. Steve says he TOLD me, but I couldn't find it...

    Anyway, FOX told me this morning that the very reasonable Secretary of State wanted to eliminate those voting days simply to give the poor, over worked poll workers TIME to count the votes.

    Well, now.. Who could complain about THAT?

    Floridians USED to be able to vote TODAY, but Republican governor Rick Scott ended it. I STILL don't know why. Is HE looking out for the poll workers too? Or, is he suppressing the vote?

    Good question.

    "Project Veritas has released a new investigation that exposes Representative Jim Moran's Field Directing, Patric Moran conspiring to commit election fraud"

    This statement is false and misleading. It will be a determination of the courts at a later date to decide if a crime of conspiracy has been committed.

    What Veritas should have said is they have evidence of an alleged conspiracy.

    Steve, can't you find any decent standards of journalism to post? This one was pathetic in its entirety.

    Just so there is no confusion regarding my above post.

    I realize that my quote was a question from N.K. to Speechless. I used NK's quote in my above post. However, my question to Speechless( Steve) at the end of my post is in relation to the original video and transcript posted by Steve.

    I am not referencing Steve as NK

    Hello again,

    Everybody SAW the lines to vote. There were waits of 5, 6, and even 8 hours to vote.. What is the problem??

    Ahhha... The problem is REPUBLICANS... If THIS is the best they can do, they shouldn't even be allowed to pick up the trash... It IS on purpose, isn't it? They think they WIN when voter turnout is SMALL.

    MY state?? We have NO wait. NONE. We LOVE it when people vote. Of course, MY state is run by Democrats.

    Tut, if we had any decent standards of journalism left Obama would lose in a landslide. With a few exceptions they have failed to do their job and hold this administration accountable.

    Project Veritas' is not a media outlet so I'm not expecting them to be any more objective than say, Media Matters.

    Received in email this morning from a friend, "Kathy's son Jimmy stuck with it in Florida. The Republicans were trying to add steps and make people leave. He was there well over 2 hours and this was early voting. Wonder what other tricks are up the conservative sleeve."
