I think I just found out what I am looking for after spending a lot time surfing the net.Dating or Internet dating is a dating system which allows individuals, couples and groups to make contact and communicate with each other over the Internet, usually with the objective of developing a personal romantic or sexual relationship. Online dating services usually provide unmoderated matchmaking over the Internet, through the use of personal computers or cell phones.I am very happy to post my comment in this blog. I gathered lot of information from this site. Nice blog

Back when the markets were riding high and the Bush people could boast about their portfolios, Republicans recommended that the best answer to Democrat protests was GOTV. Now that Democrats have worked hard to GOTV they consider it voter fraud. You cannot have it both ways.

How delightful to hear a political organization (GOP) arguing against registering new voters. What a refreshing change for a losing, lurching organization to try to sue its' way to victory. I am not an a ACORN employee or associated with them but anything that gets people to hold politicians accountable, I am all for it..

As a Obama supporter, I feel that ACORN may have given the republicans the ammo they needed to steal this election. Having dealt with ACORN personally, I honestly don't like the way they handled me, or even talked to me. The entire organization is going to rob Obama of a honest victory, and tarnish the results of this election. Obama and Democrats need to dissolve ACORN immediately if we are to avoid post election bullcrap from the Neocons.

ACORN is NOT responsible for fradulent voter registration cards. They, by law, have to turn over all cards the their local Board of Elections. It is up to THEM to sort trough what is real and what isn't. This has been going on for decades and the republican party is trying to get ALL these cards disqualified just to win the election!

Yes, lets purge the voter rolls OF NON-CITIZENS! Why can poor Republicans seem to find the correct documents to register to vote but poor Democrats can't? This is not a hard concept to understand ONLY US CITIZENS are allowed to VOTE it is the law and just because you think the Republicans stole the 2006 election does not jusify VOTER FRAUD do you understand that "sensiblethoughts", two wrongs do not make a right in any "SENSIBLE THOUGHT" I know of.

I too think it's a result of laziness, however, those committing the fraud should be punished. It's your word against ACORN, Brett, but I believe as a result of previous lawsuits and the same shrill from GOP operatives in past elections (who support purging legally registered voters off voter rolls), ACORN does now make it clear to their employees the consequences of submitting fake registration forms and they do work with elections officials to prosecute these individuals. What is most bothersome to me is that it clogs up the system for the elections officials who are trying to get millions of new registration forms processed before the election. We cannot have fair elections unless every eligible voter is afforded the opportunity to vote, including even the weakest among us. I agree, JJ.

There is no way the results of the last two Presidential elections could be reconciled with the results of the exit polls. Statistically speaking, it was an impossibility.

The RNC used Diebold's allegiance to their cause to commit extensive voting machine fraud in 2000 and in 2004. Here is video of a Republican discussing the issue:

http://www.youtube.com/watc...
http://www.youtube.com/watc...
http://www.youtube.com/watc...
http://www.youtube.com/watc...

There is absolutely no reason to think they won't do it again.

These stories about ACORN are primarily a pre-emptive coverup for the cheating via voting machines that is to come, as well as being additional smear tactics against Obama.

These ACORN stories, while disturbing, are allegations of voter *registration* fraud. People would still have to actually manage to vote under these names somehow. Diebold and the RNC are persuasively alleged to have committed actual voting fraud, en masse.

"Which counties, townships, small cities had more votes than residents, with the voters going for bush, not Kerry? What were the numbers?"

Typo: Which counties, townships, small cities had more votes than residents, with the VOTES going for bush, not Kerry? What were the numbers?

"Some of the very things YOU list as complaints against ACORN sound vaguely familiar to the complaints about the 2000 election theft."

Baloney. NONE of Ksweet's list of complaints against ACORN sounds anything familiar about the 2000 election (which wasnt a theft).

"I remember hearing about counties, townships, small cities, etc. having so many more votes than residents,"

You remember no such thing, liar.

"but the votes were for Bush, not Kerry!"

Prove it. Source? Which counties, townships, small cities had more votes than residents, with the voters going for bush, not Kerry? What were the numbers?

Even one fraudulent voter registration is one too many.

In just this statement "not only are the numbers of illegitimate registrations found tiny in comparison to the 1.3 million valid new registrations the group has signed up" you ruined your own argument.

So, a small about of voter fraud is ok?

I don't care if the numbers are "tiny in comparison"....THEY SHOULD BE NON-EXISTENT!!!!! GET IT?

Folks on the right are correct in saying this is about integrity and ethics, which seems to be in short supply anymore. Folks on the left are saying "this is fair game" since it was done by the other side in the last two elections (which has much merit.) using voter machines, etc.

The fact is the whole political scene has you so entrenched in rooting for "Your guy" that you all have sold your souls to win. I didn't hear the right stand up next to those on the left after the diebold incident to say, "You know what, if he won this way it's wrong." Conversly here we are with the left justifying it as, "Well, you did it to us, so it is fair game."

You sound like a bunch of children. Until you understand you have been conditioned into this "Root only for my team at any cost." while turning a blind eye or not standing up for right and wrong, regardless if it supports your side or not, this country is lost. There is no gray area here. You will either stand together for what is right for this country or we will fall due to our inability to move past these polarizing parties and seek the best for our country. You start today. Ask yourself before you inject yourself in these crazy, debilitating arguments - What is right and what is wrong here. Make a choice, and I hope for you, for me and for our children you chose wisely.

YOU KONServatives wouldn't know a CLEAN campaign if it smacked you in the face! You use your voter intimidation, purging, suppression, buzzwords, etc. to get your message across. YOU know YOU never figured out that there's always someone else smarter than YOU!

I guess since we're talking about voter fraud, let's investigate and report on the purging of the voter rolls, a favorite tactic of the Republicans.

States do not validate US citizenship when people register to vote. The California, Nevada, New Mexico and Florida non-citizen vote will put John McCain in the White House. The Democrats who have allow non-citizens to vote since HAVA 2002 (only a utility bill as a means of identification meets the standards outline by HAVA 2002) are now indirectly allowing non-citizens to elect John McCain to be the next President. Non-citizen Hispanics will not vote for Obama and they do not tell people taking the polls who they are going to vote for because the are under the radar, remember the States DO NOT VALIDATE US CITIZENSHIP when people register to vote and rarely prosecuted violations of voter fraud because liberal judges will not find them guilty unless they admit their guilt. State Prosecutors are reluctant to prosecute cases, so non-citizens have very little FEAR of getting caught. John McCain will be the next President of the United States not because of White Racism but non-citizens who think Blacks (in their mind) are getting a free ride, while they have to work at slave labor wages. Remember the TV ads directed at Spanish speaking voters, to be a citizen you have a basic understanding of the English language these ads where for the non-citizen Spanish speaking voter.

Stand by on election night when Barrack Obama has up to 8 point leads in California, Nevada, New Mexico and Florida and then John McCain wins those STATES.

I got my Senate voting data at http://www.SenateReports.com you can too!

NUBIA:

Of course they will. The reality is that most level headed Conservatives would not blame the mass of Liberals if there was some sort of shame over this. The reality is that there is no shame with liberals. They lie to cover up there own misdeeds.

Here is the truth.

This organization got caught doing something illegal, unethical and slimy.

They had had two roads to follow.

The high road and the gutter. Liberals are FAR more comftorable in the gutter apparently as proven by most of these posts on this MB.

Blaming republicans for everything...EVEN THERE OWN TRANSGRESSIONS is there favorite pastimes.

This is one reason I, as much as I do not care for McCain I have no other choice than to vote for him. Until a Democrat with class comes on the scene and decides to run a CLEAN campaign I have no other choice. The sad thing is that most conservatives and swing voters feel the same way.

IF the media had any integrity and this story ever got legs it could be devastating for the Dems. Good for them the media is controlled by the left.

you gotta be kidding me! obvious fraud over fake registrations in key swing states with the crime favoring Obama and you're going after the republicans??? and you're saying acorn is so ignorant and ineffective that they have no idea this is going on? i've seen the evidence myself in Florida with multiple registration forms for the same "person" submitted by acorn so don't add to the lie and say there is none.
