The Department of Justice is in full-on spin mode over the James O?Keefe Project Veritas tape in which a young white man is offered Attorney General Eric Holder?s ballot. Desperate to prove that voter ID should not be presented in order to obtain a ballot, the DOJ fired back at O?Keefe and Project Veritas today, with a DOJ official telling tried-and-true media ally Talking Points Memo, ?It?s no coincidence that these so-called examples of rampant voter fraud consistently turn out to be manufactured ones.?
This is nonsensical. Obviously this wasn?t an actual case of voter fraud?O?Keefe and Project Veritas didn?t want to break the law. And obviously the situation is manufactured?it?s the only way to show that voter fraud is easy and plausible, since we presumably don?t know when voter fraud takes place. That, in fact, is the point of the video: that voter fraud in this way is virtually undetectable and bears almost zero risk.
But the DOJ isn?t interested in the real point of the video. They know full well that voter fraud is simple when nobody has to show identification. They just don?t care, since they?re happy to watch political allies take advantage of the loopholes. Instead of targeting O?Keefe and Project Veritas for showing the American public the dangers of the current voter identification system, the Department of Justice and Holder are apparently interested only in preserving the absence of voter ID, no matter how many fraudulent ballots are actually cast.
-- "The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their? president.. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince".
