Meanwhile, roving busloads of multiple voters go unreported and unpunished because they benefit the other party. Let's say the phone line disruption cost them 85 votes (1 per minute) or a total of 85 votes. There are more than that many dead people voting in one Chicago Ward alone. No, two wrongs do not make a right. But one wrong shouldn't be punished to the full extent of the law while the other isn't even questioned.

This is stupid. Five years for this? He should have pleaded innocent, never admitted anything and said he was dialing the dems because he was truly interested in their perspective and wanted to learn more about them, etc etc Another Republican wimp.

WHY is it considered illegal for a republican to do what the democrat extremists do all the time?

Did those involve actually do anything other than make telephone calls? Did they destroy? Did they physically hurt? What was the REAL crime?

Any time the leftist - socialist - communists say "please call", or "write for your free ...", etc, I pass this on to everyone I know so they can call, write, as REQUESTED by the leftists.

What exactly was the charge here? I am at a loss to understand.

There was a concerted effort by Democrats last year (or maybe 2002) to jam the phones, faxes, and email of several Republican congressmen.

The only thing I ever heard to come out of that was several Rats were fired by their bosses when someone pointed out that they were bragging about wasting several hours of company time/resources to engage in this practice.

Incredible! Only in this country could a republican get time for this while democrats can break election law right and left (no pun intended) and be praised for it in the media!
