...Knaves - WashTimes 12/09

The up to 5,000 felons in Florida who voted their conviction for Al Gore in the presidential election.

In a survey of nearly half-a-million ballots, reporters from the Miami Herald discovered that "445 Florida felons voted illegally on Nov. 7," including, "62 robbers, 56 drug dealers, 45 killers, 16 rapists and seven kidnappers." Herald reporters also found that, "At least two who voted are pictured on the state's online registry of sexual offenders." Nearly 75 percent of the felons were registered Democrats.
Most of the known errors occurred in Palm Beach and Duval counties, which deigned to participate in a statewide effort to clean up voting lists. "We took a very laid-back approach," Dick Carlberg, the Duval County assistant supervisor of elections told Herald investigators, "We just asked them (probable felons) if they were felons and if they were ever convicted of a felony. If they said no, we took their word for it and changed them back to legal voters."
The estimate of 5,000 felonious ballots may actually be low, since according to felon William Herman, "There are a ton of us out there. It shouldn't be that way, but when they give you a voter registration card, hey, what are you supposed to do?"
Presumably, you are to vote for a Democrat.

Dear RON BL: You are absolutely right about the land grab. Right this VERY MOMENT Clinton is SEALING OFF lands by signing documents for Wilderness CONSIDERATION. Does NOT require an act of Congress or anything else to do this whereas it does to make a Wilderness Designation. The result, MANY ROADS in the WEST called Jeep trails but which ACTUALLY are access for people in small outlying towns,homesites, mines and the like are BEING CLOSED to the PUBLIC ENTIRELY. Even though those roads have been in existence for Decades if not Century. Easterners cannot understand the lack of paved roads in the West and the MYRIAD of unpaved, minimally upkeep roads which are a lifeline for many people and NO THREAT to the Environment at all. JDN
