Swiss to head team of US election observers

A Swiss parliamentarian is to lead an international team of Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) observers at next month's United States presidential election.

Barbara Haering told swissinfo that the delegation’s presence would give more credibility to both the US electoral process and the OSCE.

I'm offended and insulted. The leaders of the demoncRATS should be taken out and tarred and feathered. I'm outraged.

This needs to go to Fox with the real title:

What I would like to see happen is that after the election, the observers say "For cripes sake [however you say this in Schweitzerdeutsch], people in this country don't even have to show any ID to vote. What's going on here?"

"Who invited these guys?"

The left. There is a 150% chance that these foreigners will deny that the democrats committed election fraud.

The Europeans didn't even know what an election was until we showed them. The saddest part of all is that we have fellow countrymen that are willing to perpetuate this negative image of our beloved country for personal political gain. Zell Miller identified this sordid trend in the demonratic party. I sort of would welcome the whole bunch of them moving to France or Canada after they lose this election. This country would do quite nicely without the disloyal opposition.

And we are allowing these dweebs access into the country..If they want to go observe something, they ought to go observe Guantanamo Bay from a prison cell..or maybe they can have a conference to determine why they wouldn't fight the Nazis but had no problem laundering their money.

The Swiss, the french without the courage.

A bunch of President Bush-hating Euro-nuts to come "monitor" our elections?
What an outrage!
Where is Switzerland mentioned in the American Constitution?
Is Barbara Haering going to call for President Bush's assassination too when sKerry loses?
These Euros have absolutely no business in any American elections. This is the USA, the most powerful country on the planet, in case they forgot.

U.S. OUT OF THE U.N.!!!
This is what we get for allowing the Democrats/Socialists and RINOs to control this country (White House, Media, Congress, Academia, Teachers Unions, etc) for most of the last seventy years (since FDR was inaugurated).

Note to the Swiss:

Pray to God you're not stupid enough to show up at my precint.
Their time would be better spent observing their own banks for evidence of Terrorist supporters and Nazi hold overs.

The Swiss should f*ck off and go back to managing the financial accounts of Hitler, Stalin, Idi Amin, Duvalier and the thousands of other international criminals who have looted their countries and been welcomed by the Swiss and their financial institutions.

"Consider the players in this game. Secretary of State Colin Powell legitimized the presence of foreign election monitors by inviting the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). A spokesman for the OSCE said the group's purpose in the election is to "apply political pressure." That group, headquartered in Vienna, Austria, is led by one of the most corrupt politicians in the United States."

Oh, my dear Ms Haering, I'm sure you won't mind me borrowing a quote from Terrrrrayzuh Heinz Kerry when I say, ... "Shove it".

BTW, the only effective "security organization" for Europe that I've ever heard of was called, the United States of America (USA. The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) sounds like a bunch of "girlie men" to me.
