Vote Fraud Oughta Be a Crime (Yessssssssssssss)
Townhall.com ^ | April 27, 2017 | Robert Knight

Joseph Stalin is credited with observing that, "It's not the people who vote that count, it's the people who count the votes."

Over the last two decades the Left has been changing both the rules of our election process and America’s demographics to suit their political agenda.

A perfect example is Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe’s brazen attempt to get more than 200,000 convicted felons onto the state’s voter rolls in time for the last election. Undaunted after his slapdown by the state supreme court, the governor recently vetoed six common-sense election integrity bills sent to his desk.

One of the bills mandated that poll books include DMV photos. That seems like a no brainer, since it simplifies identification of registered voters. But the governor insisted that it might cause “voter confusion.”

The second and third (companion) measures extended existing law requiring a photo ID when acquiring absentee ballots. Several states have already done so. Virginia’s governor claimed that this would disenfranchise people. Really? What about disenfranchising citizens whose ballots are canceled by fraudulent votes?

The fourth bill would have barred paying people to register to vote. That should be another easy call. But Gov. McAuliffe asserted that no one was doing it anyway. That’s not the case, but why not make the practice even less likely by banning it?

The fifth bill would have registrars match their information against Social Security Administration and select state databases. What’s wrong with making sure that registration information is accurate?

If someone knowingly commits voter fraud in more than one election they need to be charged with treason and if found guilty pay the ultimate price to undermining the country.

I think they should be executed.

Why does this article contain 7 paragraphs, and then repeats the same exact 7 paragraphs over again?

You know someone super sympathetic will be set up as a patsy for this. The left plays it all like a Stradivarius.

India came up with a simple if messy solution. If you voted you got your finger dipped in ink that does not easily wash off.

A modern system could record fingerprints.

But the governor insisted that it might cause “voter confusion.”

When making such asinine statements, Governors should be required to explain themselves and give facts to bakc up their reasoning. Such as explaining how requiring a photo ID to vote will disenfranchise anyone. Except of course, The Invisible Man or vampires.

That is why sodomy used to get the death penalty—because the English couldn’t curtail all the raping of the little boys and young males on ships since sodomy is only about domination over other males (never “love” and “sex”, you fools. There is no such thing as “homosexual” “marriage”). It removes Right Reason, Natural Law and Virtue from our legal system. It makes marriage into an irrational, evil vice, which is unconstitutional.

It helped England to kill the sodomites which they did for a time. It put them in the closet, at least, and reduced the rape of their little boys, although with Jimmy Savale and the psychopathic sodomites running the Deep State, need for children traffickers and child-boy-sex increased dramatically. With the promotion of sodomy to little five year olds, now, in skools, to normalize the behavior and emasculate boys and warp their perceptions of the sex act, to make it meaningless so they are “groomed” for the molestations. Just like pedo (pizza)-gate and Jimmy Saville and Brian Epstein’s child-trafficking/blackmailing of all our politicians like Hastert and Weiner, and like the CIA run Man/Boy sex ring in the White House, the Franklin Cover-Up.

Same with drug dealers. They should be executed, also, since they have killed and destroyed the lives of hundreds if not thousands of people.

But we can dream. Since we now have a total Vice System. which only promotes vile behaviors to little children. Read my tagline. We will devolve into chaos, and then, tyranny because of this Vice System which will control the perceptions of all that live in it.

Without Virtue promotion in Just Law and the Culture (and Just Law is the only Constitutional type), there is no freedom possible. And it isn’t satanic “virtue” which is embedded into our Constitution, it is ONLY Christian Virtue which is embedded into our “Justice” (virtue) System and as Montesquieu stated ONLY “public virtue” is allowed to be promoted in a “Just Law”.

But we no longer have “Just Law”, because of the corruption of our legal system back with evil Justice Oliver Holmes and many other “Justices” who warped and destroyed our Rule of Law for Rule of Oligarchy. All unconstitutional, of course, but they destroy Words/Language to make it irrational-—removed from Truth (God) and Reality....so they could make Evil into Good.

Vice has to be demeaned and “punished” by the Culture—never glorified and made glorious, as media and our courts do 24/7.

To get back to truth and justice, we need to reform our legal system-—and make ONLY Just Laws. All unconstitutional, evil laws are “null and void” anyhow.

Is that settled science or conservative propaganda? (Expiring minds want to know.)

I always know it is you before I read the tagline.

I assert further that there is no such thing as homosexuality. It is homoeroticism: the perverse eroticization of physical intimacy with a person of the same sex.

There is no functional form of sexuality - sexual reproduction - between two persons of the same sex.

Like the term, marriage, the thing preceded the word.

The most effeminate male can easily impregnate the most masculinized female, and produce a healthy, normal baby thereby.

That is sex; everything else is window dressing.

If those illegal votes were going to Republicans there would be penalties, they don't so there won't be any.

Same on open borders, if those people coming in from South America voted republican there would be a wall and a moat with alligators and electric barbwire.
