The Three Pimpeteers |
by Melinda Pillsbury-Foster
It
is ironic that John Fund claims some kind of victory by pointing out
a highly marginal way of stealing a few votes
via the unusual opportunity of finding unused ballots. In his recent
article,
James
O’Keefe Strikes Again,
the back slapping was thick and gleeful.
James
O'Keefe, again, scored a media event in these last days before the
coming election. This time he was not dressed up in his pimp dudes,
but he should have been.
The
election would have to extraordinarily close for this kind of voter
fraud to matter. Argument like these are like blaming the national
debt on shop lifting by senior citizens. It happens, but it is rare.
The
Big Game is being run by the Number Two Man on Fund's own speed dial,
Karl Rove. Stealing Elections was essential if the Number One Man on
Fund's speed dial in the same period, Dick Cheney, of Halliburton,
was to win and so become even richer. The three are linked by common
interests as well as a solid and long term friendship. They
scratch each other's backs, as the expression goes.
When
John beats up a woman, or otherwise misbehaves, they are there for
him.
Fund,
having made himself a kind of a 'reputation' for pimping the idea of
Voter Fraud lays it on thick and cheesy in his article.
The
other side, located in Colorado, make themselves look pathetic
because a NeoCon had to give them this exciting idea – and these
twits golly gosh, gee'd all over James O'Keefe instead of showing him
the door.
Franklin’s
state director, Meredith Hicks, told O’Keefe that committing voter
fraud using unused ballots was perfectly okay. “That’s
not even lying or stealing, if someone throws out the ballot. If you
want to fill it out you should do it,”
she told O’Keefe on tape.
Note:
Cheating is always wrong. It destroys trust in the integrity of the
entire electoral process and is repulsive in anyone.
That
said, can't you see this woman rooting round in people's trash cans
looking for those ballots? How would you know when they would appear?
Many of these ballots will end up in the trash, but only after
election day.
“Oh. Never mind, that was yesterday.” Others
will be used as grocery lists, book marks, made into paper airplanes
and other purposes for which they were not intended. Some will also
be used for voting.
Really,
it makes you cringe.
There
is a magnitude of difference between this level of electoral
dishonesty and the Big Game. That is where the real money is and
this article is evidence John Fund is still Pimping for the same
folks who profited by murdering a million and a half Iraqis, killing
off babies doomed by the effects of DU to short and horrible lives,
and other war crimes galore. Remember Bush and his administration's
excitement over 'rendering' people?
You
can't say Fund is not consistent. So are No. One SpeedDial and No.
Two SpeedDial.
To
get the money you have to win the election and if you are Dick Cheney
or George Bush you can't win unless you cheat.
Rove
is not into retail, he is all about Whole Selling out America with
Ballot Fraud via cool electronics. He has made millions this way.
Cheney, No. Two SpeedDial, made billions.
Fund
and Friends are all Pimps. They should dress the role.
