Rendell spokesman says GOP has `Jim Crow' attitude
The Times Leader ^ | 10/29/08 | unlisted

The head of the county bureau of elections hasn’t encountered any suspected voter registration fraud, but allegations in other parts of Pennsylvania have sparked a lawsuit and a verbal exchange between a state official and the Republican Party.

The Pennsylvania Republican Party filed a lawsuit to assure the vote count is accurate – a move that Gov. Ed Rendell’s press secretary described as a “Jim Crow attitude.”

State GOP Chairman Robert Gleason said the action was taken to question the validity of some new registrations – most of which were gathered by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

Luzerne County Election Bureau Director Leonard Piazza said he has not noticed a significant number of registrations from ACORN.

The Jim Crow laws were the invention of DEMOCRATS. Blacks had civil rights under Republican Reconstruction. DEMOCRATIC politicians took those rights away. See e.g. Senator “Pitchfork Ben” Tillman.

OL! I thought the very same thing, when I read the headline!

I have to wonder if Rendell doesn’t want to go for the job himself in 4 years! Never mind Hillary.

My fellow citizens voted Fast Eddie Rendell into office, and he immediately raised the state income tax. Shades of Obama to come, little taxes everywhere will just start going up. Rendell even wants to sell off the PA turnpike to foreigners who will then rake in toll money for themselves. Rendell cannot find enuf things to tax to support all the state jobs.
