O’Keefe Pals Attempt Voter Fraud in New Hampshire, Could Go to Jail For It

By: David Dayen Wednesday January 11, 2012 4:32 pm

Yesterday in New Hampshire, repeat dirty trickster James O’Keefe had the bright idea of getting some of his lackies to impersonate a voter. This would display how easy it is to commit voter fraud, or so one assumes was their point.

So remember, only GOP Secretaries of State and repeat conservative dirty tricksters pose a threat of voter fraud.

GOP Clown Car Runs Off the Road, Accelerating Its Gay and Womb-Control Obsession

By: Pam Spaulding Sunday January 8, 2012 9:30 am

These 2012 GOP Primary debates are filled with both humor and horror when it comes to LGBT issues. The fact that these straight white guys are up there talking about how to “preserve marriage” from LGBT Americans as well as basic civil rights is embarrassing. On Sunday’s Meet the Press (screen cap at right), there was less focus on TEH HOMOs, but Saturday’s New Hampshire debate was seriously out of control.
