Why Is It That the Same People Angry Bristol Palin Is in the Finals of DWTS...

Are against Voter ID laws? Seems like picking your elected representatives is a bit more important than a television show.

High Court Rejects Effort to Keep Names of Petition Signers Secret

This seems about right to me. In general, transparency is necessary to keep elections free and open. The justices held open the idea that plaintiffs might be able to win on a narrower argument, namely, that, in their case, disclosing the names and addresses would leave them subject to harassment and threats.

Shocker: ACORN Admits to Voter Fraud, Works With Democrats

For years, I've read lefty blogs which were so scared that Republicans were stealing elections. We heard about voting machines which switched your vote from Democrat to Republican. We heard about Republicans at polling places changing ballots. We heard about intimidation by police officers who asked people if they'd voted.

And yet, the same people skeered of Diebold care not a whit about voter fraud conducted in the name of Democrats. In fact, some of the same people who were complaining about Diebold have championed ACORN and decried any investigation into their practices.

With the admission today from Project Vote workers that ACORN "works" for Democrats and "deliberately promotes voter fraud," I'm wondering if the same indignant Diebold-haters will be all over ACORN now? Somehow, I think not.
