Bring Out Your Dead (Again)
When it comes to the Democrats, some habits are hard to break.
Criminal investigations could be launched against at least six voter registration workers who tried to add dead, imprisoned or imaginary people to the voter rolls, according to the Milwaukee Election Commission and the organization that employed them.
Officials are reviewing some 200 to 300 fraudulent voter registration cards, Sue Edman, the commission’s executive director, said Wednesday.
And even though the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now caught the fraud and reported it before the cards were turned in, the incident revived a four-year-old partisan debate over the integrity of Wisconsin’s voter registration process, as political groups step up efforts to sign up voters for the Nov. 4 presidential election.
“One woman called us to complain because her husband has been dead for 10 years and a voter registration was submitted,” Edman said.
In about 12 cases, deputy registrars paid by ACORN were “making people up or registering people that were still in prison,” said Carolyn Castore, ACORN’s state political director.
Maybe they could use the excuse that Obama’s rhetoric is so inspiring that it brought the dead back to life?

H. Ratliff: Actually, re-reading my comment I don't know if I was very clear. I meant to say that I wonder if CBO scoring will start to become less important when future legislation is being debated. Obviously using budgeting gimmicks to game the system isn't new... Neither is outright lying. That said,…

AlexinCT: Read it again, perhaps more slowly this time, and you may see the sarcasm. Just wanted to make sure nobody took it as advice instead of just another jab at dog's expense working_man.

working_man: No matter how low your opinions is of someone, and believe me, mine of dog can’t go much lower - barring them actually trying to do something nasty to you personally - something like this is uncalled for working_man. And for the record, I agree with everything else you said.…

Hal_10000: I wonder if after this disaster the CBO scoring will even mean anything. What’s the point? No it won't. That a point I should have mentioned. The Democrats will get their rosy projections, pass the bill, claim they've reduced the deficit and then proceed to "fix" the bill with all…
