The Defiance County Sheriff's Office arrested Chad Staton, age 22, of Stratton Ave., Defiance, on a charge of False Registration, in Violation of Section 3599.11 of the Ohio Revised Code, a felony of the fifth degree.

The SheriffÕs Office alleges that Staton filled out over 100 voter registration forms that were fictitious. Staton was to be paid for each registration form that he could get citizens to fill out. However, Staton himself filled out the registrations and returned them to the woman who hired him from Toledo, Ohio. Deputies allege that Staton was paid crack cocaine for the falsified registrations.

Defiance Deputies along with Toledo Police Department detectives conducted a search warrant of a residence on Woodland in Toledo, believed to be the home of the woman who hired Staton to solicit voter registration. Officers confiscated drug paraphernalia along with voter registration forms from the home. The occupant of the home, Georgianne Pitts, age 41, advised law enforcement, along with Ohio B.C.I.&I., that she had been recruited by Thaddeus J. Jackson, II, of Cleveland, to obtain voter registrations. Pitts admitted to paying Staton crack cocaine for the registrations in lieu of money.

A business card provided by Pitts indicated that Jackson is the Assistant NVF Ohio Director of the NAACP National Voter Fund.

The initial complaint received by the Sheriff's Office came from the Defiance County Board of Elections. The Board had received the 100 plus registration forms from the Cuyahoga Board of Elections that had been submitted to the Cuyahoga Board by the NAACP National Voter Fund.

I hope this news makes national headlines. If it does, it'll put more nails in Kerry's coffin.

They don't believe in smoking cigarettes in Toledo. All the restaurants and bars are non-smoking. Toledo officials consider it very evil. Of course most of those same bars are filled with some who drink to excess on occasion and then decide to go for a drive. Go figure.

I live near Toledo and I wish I could move.

Earlier, Connelly wrote, when Yarrow sang “Puff the Magic Dragon”
at an event in a private home in Ames, Iowa, “Kerry lifted his
fingers to his mouth for a quick toke on an imaginary joint.
You can almost see his thick mane of silver hair returning to the
shaggy brown do of those days.”

Hmmmm.......

In retrospect, maybe those Florida 2000 voters kept screwing up their ballots because they were loaded up with drugs at the polls.

Correction from my last post:

but you have to be a subscriber to view archived stories older than 14 days. Is anyone here a subscriber, and if so, can you investigate these further?

I guess you have to pay no matter what. They don't have an online archive, you have to pay and they send you a microfiche of the page you want. And this is Ohio's largest paper? What a Mickey-Mouse-operation.

John Kerry's Crack the Vote Address (Satire)

Presidential candidate John Kerry addresses thousands of addicts, many holding signs "WILL VOTE FOR CRACK" at a Crack the Vote rally in Washington D.C. on Saturday.

My friends, I have a plan. It's a good plan.  I was talking to Marion Barry (the b*tch set me up) just the other day. He asked me what my drug plan was. I told him that the President's drug plan was the wrong plan at the wrong place at the wrong time.  The president refused to change his policy. The President made drug importation illegal and that has driven up the costs. Drugs from countries like Canada and Columbia......  In Ohio, for instance, a  factory worker with a family of five can't even  afford crack for their teenager. That's just wrong. (applause) This administration refuses to tell Americans the truth about the benefits of drugs like horse, crack-rock,  ecstasy, meth and the chronic. 

I would like to ask everyone to pause for a moment in remembrance of my good friend Rick James who called me last night, right before he died,  to thank me for continuing to fight for the rights of druggies and dealers throughout this nation who continue to be persecuted and disenfranchised by the political ideology of right wing fanaticism. John Edwards and I support on going research and development of new and improved designer drugs. Drugs that will increase the high, while lasting longer, and lessening the risk of death. (applause)

No Child left behind? This administration is distorting the facts. Right now in America, only inner city kids are privy to the "street corner pharmacy". Kids in the suburbs have to either drive all the way downtown, pay inflated prices, or steal them from their parents. That is unacceptable. I'm gonna change all that. My plan will allow all American kids the same opportunities. (applause) We'll open the "street corner market" to all Americans, regardless of their income.  (loud applause)

When I'm President I'm gonna change everything.  We went into Iraq without the support of our allies. The President is distancing us from the French-Connection. We've got troops in Afghanistan where the drugs are. Why are we in Iraq? Before I realized that it wasn't for drugs, I actually voted for the 87 billion before I voted against it.  This President, while going on and on about these so called "TERRORISTS", misleading our country, while we know that they are nothing more than a nuisance. I mean come on, they haven't even once destroyed so much as  a single crack house or meth lab. He's living in a fantasy world.

I will focus on the needs of every addict and dealer in this country, not made up enemies that aren't even interested in our drugs.  (applause) My plan, when I'm President, my more gooder  plan... my plan that is better than the Presidents plan, my plan that really does exist... is amnesty for illegal aliens who are a part of my plan. (applause)  With my plan people won't have to hide drugs in their body cavities (applause) to bring them into this country.  95% ,or closer to 100%  of the containers that come into this country don't even have drugs in them. I have a plan to change all that. We will buy these drugs in bulk like the VA hospitals. Under my plan, we will make sure that every American has the same quality drugs that we Liberals use in congress, (applause) the kind of quality that I had access to in the sixties and seventies. (applause) My fellow Americans, DOPE  IS  ON  THE  WAY !!! (thunderous applause) (gun shots) (screams) (applause)

As I said, the Democrats will do ANYTHING to "win" this election..I am sure there are a lot of shenanigans going on across the country, courtesy of their liberal elements. This election needs to be supervised closely by citizens interested in fairness and common sense.

And please no more pics of Britney, the Democrats' family role model..she is FUGLY..ass looks like plumber's falling out of her britches.
