Left Strike Back on Jared Lee Loughner – A Registered Republican! (Libs push fake doc on Twitter)
Solid Principles.com ^ | 1/9/2011 | Craig Edwards

Posted on 01/10/2011 12:05:13 AM PST by Qbert

This was exactly the left needed to prove their Tea Party allegations and to deflect some heat from any association with Jared Lee Loughner – their Smoking gun? Loughner was a registered Republican in Pima County.  Let the Tea Party comparisons continue, ad nauseam.

UPDATE Jan 9, 2011 - 23:15 WST: Since this was posted some debate has emerged how legitimate this claim is – over at democraticunderground.com one user links up this article and mentions Solid Principles ”got the image from the ‘left’, but don’t elaborate where they got it.”.  The answer is we obtained from tumblr account via a post on Twitter – we added the above commentary and that’s all we did.

This same user at democraticunderground.com adds:  ”I went to the Arizona Secretary of State site and tried to perform the search myself. Turns out you need to know BOTH Loughner’s birthdate AND either his voter registration ID or driver’s license number to get the information. Considering I don’t know how anyone would have gotten this, I find this entire claim to be suspect”.

Thank you user Barack_America at democraticunderground.com, and to answer your question “Why would a conservative website be promoting this?” – we find it important to follow a story, and posting this element is all part of following the story.  I too share you skepticism over it’s origins.

I find it hard to believe that someone at voter registration would call the city “Tuscon” twice in the same document. But maybe I’m kidding myself.

The creators of this document would've been advised to learn how to spell "Tuscon" before fabricating it.

It is, instead, Tucson.

Instant dismissal.

Interesting you brought up Lennon. Loughner was apparently fixated on Giffords since 2007- much the same way Mark David Chapman was fixated on Lennon for a long time. I guess they just get “it in their heads” and then it’s only a matter of time. Scary.

I am stunned by what the media, including fox, has done with this story. I know I shouldn’t be after seeing obumber elected by the media, but I am. They are intentionally inflaming the issue and blaming us for inflaming the issue in the same sentence. It is truly bizarre!

Obviously the Registrar of Voters is dyslexic.

These sort of screen shots are nearly impossible to fake or alter.

It would be quite easy to get a birthdate and dl number. He probably posted his birthdate on a website and you can pay a fee to obtain the dl.
