...Based on the information that has come to light so far, the charges appear to be wildly overblown — and intended to hobble Acorn’s efforts....
Let's hope that trend continues at The New York Times. It's been a real bitch since that moron started work there...what's his name? Oh, yeah, Powell...Michael Powell.
Liberate The New York Times.
We are all pulling for you.
Has everyone watched and LISTENED to Michael Moore's Slacker Tour? In that film appears Viggo Mortensen stating that citizens of great democracies should be issued voter registrations automatically (along with their filing of drivers' license and/or draft status).
In the USA, every college student is required to file a draft form in order to receive financial assistance. Right or wrong, it goes on. There is no reason why any form where Americans come in contact with 'the system' doesn't require voter registration.

The finger points directly at the inflammatory CNN and in this case Drew Griffin. It is irresponsible journalism, biased and exaggerated to cause harm to the character of a candidate. At this point with 'the truth' being known it is debateable at to whom the candidate slated for damage actually is.
HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, ha, ha, ah it feels so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JERKS !

Meanwhile, Republicans aren’t saying anything about another more serious voter-registration scandal: the fact that about one-third of eligible voters are not registered. The racial gaps are significant and particularly disturbing. According to a study by Project Vote, a voting-rights group, in 2006, 71 percent of eligible whites were registered, compared with 61 percent of blacks, 54 percent of Latinos and 49 percent of Asian-Americans.
Much of the blame for this lies with overly restrictive registration rules. Earlier this year, the League of Women Voters halted its registration drive in Florida after the state imposed onerous new requirements....
