Lack Of Signatures To Be Counted On Walker Recall Petitions (SATIRE)

MADISON, Wis. -- The Government Accountability Board of Wisconsin has unanimously ruled that a failure to sign the petitions to force a recall election for Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch, shall be counted as a signature.

"It is my understanding of the law," board elections specialist David Buerger said, "that we cannot discriminate against any would-be petition signer. If they are illiterate, or have lost all their limbs, their signature will be counted, whether or not it is present on the paperwork."

This is the first time in American history that petition-circulators will be permitted to bring in completely blank pages and have them counted as fully-signed and filled to capacity.

"I believe that, if you refuse to sign a petition, you must sign it and indicate you are opposed to the measure. If no signature for your name and address exists, it is obvious you are giving consent to the measure by your inaction. 'Silence implies consent', as the old saying goes," said Leftee De Mokrat, one of the members of the GAB.

Political analysts believe that under these new rules, the effort to recall Scott Walker is likely to succeed. They also point to the new effort underway to count any vote, for or against Scott Walker, as a vote for his recall.

Wait until they will require no signature for voting.

We already had that in Wisconsin. The new voter law will require the voter to sign. If it stands, I can just hear the people screaming that the lines are so slow that they are being DIS-N-FRANCHISED.

My GAWD! It's Floor-I-Duh all over again:
RAT Election Judge: 'Sure there's no vote for president, so what? Look at the vote on page four cast for County Dog Catcher, it's for the Democrat. Therefore this voter suuuuurely intended to vote for Gore but got confused. So we put this one in Gore's column.

NEXT.....

Good one Laz ;-)

How right you are. It has gotten to the point where the line between satire and reality is totally erased. Nothing surprises me anymore. Good job.

And thusly, one of my old works....
