Yesterday I watched Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) abuse a nominee to the Justice Department (some deputy AG, I never got to see who - Whitehouse was blathering on and on) regarding a protocol formerly used by US Attorneys. US part of the Democrats effort to gin up a scandal over the appointment and dismissals of US Attorneys in the Bush Justice Department - Whitehouse was extolling the virtues of a former policy, abandoned in 2004, which prohibited US Attorneys from bringing voter fraud cases in the year leading up to an election. He was insisting that the nominee do everything he could to return the US Attorneys to that policy, arguing that no on wants the impartiality of the Attorneys corrupted by any incentive to tilt an election by bringing indictments just before voters go to the polls.

Look how long it takes to prosecute ACORN under the protocol he protests! If he were to define the "period leading up to the election" as one year, they couldn't be indicted until November 2008! This is absurdity.

BTW: Sen. Whitehouse and John Larroquette were separated at birth.

One of my attempts at humor.

Only 8 Charged in St Louis Voter Fraud. Only a token of those who vote the dead, dogs etc. Had the number been 80 or 800 I feel that some serious gains had been made into the corrupt St Louis voter fraud.

8 Charged in St Louis Voter Fraud,,,,St. Louis Post Disgrace ^ (The St Louis Post Dispatch). A bit of humor by the poster.
