The fix is in. Why waste the money doing a “census” if it is going to be a farce anyway?

This just proves that naming a RINO senator as Commerce Secretary was just to get another ‘Rat in the Senate.

Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, fears that the move could jeopardize a reliable census in 2010. That, in turn, could trigger allegations of political chicanery in redrawing the lines that determine districts and help shape electoral fortunes. Now the change is starting to make sense...

Go for it, Marsha ! Obviously Grassley, Lugar and Bond don't give a rat's patoot...

Also signing the letter will be her fellow committee members 36 Democrats and 22 Republicans. This is encouraging She hopes her letter will prompt California Rep. Henry Waxman, the Democrat who heads the committee, to conduct a hearing.
This is not. What are the chances he would do it? At least an honest hearing that is.

This is so easy to protest. Let them know that we won’t fill it out.

Now we know why Acorn has all those ads running on Craigslist. They are hiring now so they will be ready for the census that will be required by the Leader.

A Republican lawmaker is calling for an investigation of a plan by the Obama administration to have the U.S. census managed by White House staff.
And I am calling for free cookies for all! Unfortunately, our calls shall both go unheeded.

Having Henry Waxman investigate anything is like asking the Mafia to investigate itself.
If we investigated every Democrat chairman of each committee, the jails would be filled overnight.

From now on, the census will prove that all white Christian males are Democrats. It will also prove that white Christian males comprise about 0.03% of the US population. As a vanishingly small percentage of the US population, white Christian males can be conveniently removed from the voter roles and pleasantly placed into minority holding camps where they can consider what they've done, running a world in need with their greed and so forth.
But take heart. At least we'll be Democrats.

If what you write happens, then we white, Jewish, conservative males will have been put, first, on the Endangered Species List, and then moved to the Extinct List.
I was a Democrat. Please don’t send me back there. Anything. I’ll even say nice things about Helen Thomas (Nope, not that desperate).

THANK YOU Rep. Blackburn!!
I pray she is allowed to get to the bottom of this, and the every other “R” joins her in doing something about it. This communist bs has got to stop!

Doesn't matter if you complete it or not. The dems plan to estimate the census. You and I probably won't be counted.

I’m not optimistic that Waxman will take this up, however, the GOP can win this if they succeed in raising the awareness of the issue. Keep talking about it, keep writing op-eds, keep appearing on tv, and keep doing things like Marsha Blackburn is doing. I expect this to be a big issue in the Judd Gregg confirmation hearings.

Don’t you see what they are doing? Phony census to set up phony districts for voting. (All left-leaning, of course.....sarcasm of.....
