Republicon War on Representative Democracy

Sticking a flag pin on your lapel doesn’t make you a patriot. It’s what lies beneath in your heart that matters. And with Friday’s appeals court ruling imposing the GOPster’s voter suppression scheme on the Badgered state, the scary war on representative democracy that lies at the heart of the Republicon Party is laid bare. But lying, manipulating, gerrymandering, voter suppression and Blitz Gezetz (lightning law) are the means this minority party needs to obtain its ends. I say minority because that is who they now represent, a very small but increasingly wealthy and powerful minority. The Republicon Party has abandoned their belief in representative democracy and local control. They believe only in wealth and power and the related heresies, that money is speech and corporations are people and should write our laws. If the Boston tea party happened today the Republicons would side with the East India Company.

When Robin Vos gerrymandered Wisconsin, he drew the 21^st Senate district just for Van Wanggaard, with the district line running right down the side of his block, thus choosing Wanggaard’s voters for him, instead of the other way around. Vanny must be a very special boy to deserve such treatment. Scott Walker used blitz gezetz by the surprise introduction of Act 10 on a Friday afternoon, when all eyes were turned toward the weekend, with the plan to ram it through the inconvenient formality of public hearings and get it passed the following Thursday, before the citizenry would have a chance to consider it and react.

But their attack on voting rights is an extra special betrayal of our Republic. Armed with laws written in secret, by global corporations at the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) Republicons all across the country, including those in the Badgered state have moved to advance their hidden agenda, because everything the Cons do has a hidden agenda, EVERYTHING! Their voter suppression agenda is based on a wild conspiracy theory about massive voter fraud, committed on a perennial basis by busloads of brown people. The mechanics of this conspiracy are so ridiculously improbable that you'd have to be completely divorced from critical thinking to swallow it. Just how foolish does one need to be? Let's examine. If one believes that:

Every election year brown people coordinate getting the forged documents needed to register at the polls and travel all over your state committing multiple counts of voter impersonation fraud for democrats and never get caught, infiltrated or have someone spill the beans, one might be foolish enough to vote in Republicons (FEVIR).

Fraudsters never run into poll workers who know they don't live at the addresses they’re attempting to use or who know the real voter in whose name they're attempting to vote, never try to vote under the name of someone who has already voted or that the real voter never shows up later to find that someone has already voted in their name, one might be FEVIRish.

Brown people who are transported to the polls in vans must not be legitimate voters. And people who traditionally vote at rates lower than the general population would be motivated to risk a felony conviction with no chance of direct personal gain to get a job for someone they don't know personally and with no way of knowing if their effort is even needed to win or if it will be enough to be successful, one might be FEVIRish.

The few people who vote while on probation or parole would be identified and stopped by voter ID, one might be FEVIRish.

DMVs across your state have convenient hours and locations with available public transportation and that getting to the DMV to get a photo ID is easily done by the working poor or elderly without a car, one might be FEVIRish.

Everyone lives like you do and has or needs a driver’s license or photo ID and one is so special that it might be one’s personal vote, out of millions, that might be cancelled and that justifies putting road blocks in front of over 300,000 of our fellow citizen’s right to cast their vote, one might be FEVIRish!

The Republicon Party wouldn't trumpet the news all over the media if in fact they were ever able to catch the supposed perpetrators and expose this massive scheme and the reason they have never offered a reward for the exposure of voter impersonation fraud conspiracies is because they just don't have the money, one might be FEVIRish.

Photo ID is about election integrity and not voter suppression, the Republicon Party leadership actually believes in freedom and the wild conspiracy theory that they're foisting on us, one is definitely FEVIRish.

Interfering with the right of citizens to legitimately cast their vote isn't just down right Un-American, one is in a complete stupor!

Vulture Vos Vows Repeat at Rape of Representative Democracy

Robin "Vulture" Vos

In response to Federal Judge Lynn Adelson's ruling Tuesday that Wisconsin's Voter Suppression law is Unconstitutional, because it Suppresses Voters, the fALEC Gerrymanderer Robin "Vulture" Vos stated; "I'm going to do whatever it takes to ensure that we have voter ID in place as quickly as possible," . . . "If that means having a special session so we have it in place by the fall then I'm definitely open to doing that, and I support it. If it means that because of Judge Adelman's actions that won't actually occur then we will do whatever we can in the most expeditious manner to make it work."

Special session you say Vossy to pick at the carcass of democracy?

The GOPster Tsunami of Election Fraud Begins!

Voter Intimidation & Misinformation

My Dearest One, I must solicit your in strictest confidence in this transaction, by virtue of it nature being utterly confidential top secret and by greatest magnitude of pending transaction with which I must rely of your gracious assistance to your maxiimum benefit in enormity. I am Daughter Marisah Okon of Nigerian Prince . . . you get the idea, it a scam.

Well it's an election year and if your the shamelessly unethical GOParty of Dirty Tricks, who Relies on Lies and believes that the End Justifies, NO REQUIRES, The Means, what do you do? You Commit Fraud, of course!

The National Republicon Congressional Committee hes set up dozens of fake campaign websites specifically designed to DEFRAUD Americans by tricking them into donating Their Money to the Slitherin Snakes in the Grass (GOPsters) instead of their intended beneficiary.

EXCERPT: "It turns out that the political organization has purchased over a dozen domain names of Democratic candidates up for election and set up real-looking-but-fake websites. The worst part of all – besides the blatant deception and malice for the electorate – is that fact that since it has been exposed, the NRCC has stated that they are “very proud of the program” and have promised to expand it. It seems they can’t even be shamed into stopping their borderline fraud." END

GOPride in their Deception and Malice, is Anyone surprised by this? These people Have No Shame! In fact they plan on rolling out more of these Fraudulent Websites as midterms approach.

And of course we have the cowed mainstream media obligatory attempt to seem "fair" by making a false equivalency with out a shred of evidence to back it up. EXCERPT: "These Republicans are far from the only group to engage in behavior like this – questionable campaign tactics are expected from both parties." END

Really!? Can we get some real examples of Democrats or affiliated groups engaging in serial election fraud? I can think of one, the tire slashing incident in Milwaukee back in what, 2004? That was local, isolated, not sanctioned by the party and they got caught and Punished, thank you very much. On the other hand, I can think numerous, repeated, regional and national examples from the GOPster groups and the GOParty directly, like the case we're examining here, right from the GOPlutocracy Top, the NRCC.

And this is just the beginning, soon we'll see the perennial attempts to misinform voters about when they can vote, where they can vote and to scare voters with false information about who is eligible to vote and the associated penalties. Of course voting machines will be in short supply in heavily democratic districts in battleground states, and others may be hacked. Perhaps we'll see a return of the denial of service attacks against Democratic call centers and the purging of voter rolls. And of course the Unpatriotic attempt by Fork Tongued Ones to disenfranchise voters with false claims of voter fraud, when it is THEY who are the Fraudsters, has been in full swing since the Bush/Rovian U.S. Attorneys scandal and got a recent shot in the arm by the Extreme Court Judicial Hacktivist repeal of the part of the Voting Rights Act.

Well all I can say is that if you're foolish enough to turn your country over to people who are ethically bankrupt and power hungry enough to commit fraud to get elected, you're probably also foolish enough to be surprised when they defraud you through your government and rob you of your representation. You might as well give the keys to America to Nigerian Scam Artists!

GOPsters Pile on the Shtuff!

GOPster Crapitalism Delivered!

The budget the Republicon's are in the process of enacting is not only mean-spirited, it's fiscally irresponsible and grossly immoral. Kicking 85,000 Wisconsin citizens off Badgercare so they can refuse to accept $120 million in federal money to cover their healthcare, while giving big tax breaks to rich people by borrowing one time money and falsely claiming they've eliminated Wisconsin's budget deficit is just disgusting. 55% of the tax savings would go to people making over $100,000 per year, another unstimulative gift in the 30-year long failed experiment/scam of supply-side economics. They're also funneling our tax dollars to private/religious schools, by giving a tax credit to anyone, regardless of income, who sends their kids to private schools. Budgets are moral documents and this budget, crafted in the dead of night by extremist ideologues and their corporatist lobbyists while good Wisconsinites slept, is egregious, absurd and heartless. SHAME on all of you!

And on top of refusing the $120 million in federal medicaid money the GOPsters approved another $70 million dollars to go to the corporate hospitals to make sure THEY are not hurt when the uninsured people show up hurting at the emergency room and try to get healthcare.

You SEE? Even THEY don't believe their own nonsense that these poor people will be able to afford health insurance under the Obamacare exchanges! And they have in fact ADMITTED, to the tune of $70M that they're kicking Wisconsinites off of healthcare and that their lying about it!
