I was troubled today by yet another story demonstrating the alarming lack of regard for the fact that our military men and women are being disenfranchised from our democratic voting process. In Fairfax County, VA, it has been reported that military ballots are being literally thrown in the garbage because of a “technicality” in the absentee ballot form.
Furthermore, the Justice Department has now filed a lawsuit against the State of Vermont and Vermont Secretary of State Deborah L. Markowitz, for failure to comply with the Uniformed Overseas Citizen Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), legislation intended to ensure that uniformed military members and overseas citizens may effectively participate in federal elections.
These cases only demonstrate the undeniable fact that the absentee voting system used for our overseas military is broken.
Tragic - They are over there fighting for our right to vote.
Call Senator Jim Webb’s office. Flood him with calls.
The election is being stolen by the fascists. It’s time we rose up and stood our ground.
But by Gaia, Pelosi did almost manage the House dining room. Almost ...
LOL
In other news Hussein says he’s got Virginia in the bag. The garbage bag.
Once again, the whinyass Commie Dems disenfranchise those who are protecting our freedom. Typical Commie ‘RATS.
*yawn* So who’s on “Celebrity Dancing with the American Idols” tonight?
It’s time for the military to force their vote to count.
CALL THEM, FAX THEM, ACT LIKE A DEMOCRATIC!!!!LET’S STAND UP FOR THE RIGHTS OF OUR MILITARY.

Disenfrachisement I guess only applies when it’s a bunch of gutter trash voting for the dummiecrats.
“the Justice Department has now filed a lawsuit......”
Why the heck don’t the Justice Department do their freakin’ job and make some arrests!
It looks more and more that the time for the citizenship to do their constitutional duty is at hand.
Here’s my letter I just email Gov Kaine, Webb will be next!
Dear Gov Kaine, How can you be out helping to get Obama elected to office and turning your back on our military? Accord to reports that I have read, their votes are being discarded and YOU are allowing this to happen. WHY? There are major voting problems in Fairfax and other counties and you are not address their RIGHT -TO VOTE. My God, they are putting their life on the line for us and you are not even making sure they can vote. Shame on you! Here is but one story I have read about it. Do something about it NOW! http://blog.thehill.com/2008/10/24/speaker-pelosi-failed-to-protect-our-overseas-militarys-right-to-vote-rep-trent-franks/ Sincerely Diane XXXXXXXX
Webb is the one to hit up. I can’t stand the guy, but he’s a military man and he’s a total loose cannon with a raging temper, who just might actually do something about it. Kaine is a Dem hack.

You are correct and Webb will be getting and email. I was just a Kaines site at the moment.I will email this to my Virginia friends as we need to keep up on what is going on right under our nose.
It’s Pelosi’s fault.
interesting that all questionable absentee ballots from ACORN are kept and set aside in case they are needed for a “recount” but the military ballots go straight into the shredder so that there won’t be any proof that they ever existed. WHere the HELL is the media on this story?
