There you go again. Standard right wing stuff, assign an opinion to the left that the left hasn't expressed, and then ridicule it. Mrsnark claims:

Free contraception is not a right.


And did anyone claim it is? No, access to contraception is a benefit that was provided in legislation. If the Republicans wanted to carve out exceptions for religious institutions, or co-pays, they would have had to cooperate. I think the right has to look at the strategy of their representatives and find it failed them. All or nothing rather than reason and compromise. So you got nothing--and it is Obama's fault? Look at Mitch McConnell and think again.

Oh, but you guys aren't really serious about governing. You were grossly fiscally irresponsible the last three Presidential terms you were in, now you champion putting amateurs in charge of a very complicated array of laws (except the fraud Ryan, who you love because he is your fraud), and, like Catholic priests and bishops who simply don't understand the mystery and wonder of sex, you obsess about it endlessly.

Have you tried therapy?

This is hysterical. After investigations in several states found potential unregistered voters--in the tens--news comes this morning that the RNC had to fire one of Mitt's buddies for--voter registration fraud. I couldn't make this stuff up!


Quote:
The Republican National Committee fired a voter registration firm owned by a paid consultant to the party’s presidential candidate Mitt Romney Thursday, after Florida officials traced more than 100 possibly fake registration forms back to the company.

NBC News reported that the RNC cut ties with Strategic Allied Consulting (SAC), run by party strategist Nathan Sproul, had been paid $2.9 million this year to register voters in five swing states before being dismissed.

Sproul is also the founder and managing partner of another company, Lincoln Strategy Group, which records show was paid by the Romney campaign paid to do “field consulting.”





A Romney campaign spokesperson told NBC via email, “We used this vendor for signature gathering services during the primary but have not used them since 2011.”

Strategic Allied Consulting had been fired this week by Republican officials in Florida after 106 “questionable” registration forms were handed to the state attorney’s office after being flagged for review by Palm Beach County Elections Supervisor Susan Bucher.

Sad that the voter fraud thing is spreading to other areas in Fla.
In at least one county these crooks are operating out of the RNC offices.
Sad for our democracy and nothing to do with any party, just a sign how badly our country is losing its greatness.
The UN has offered again to monitor the elections for us.
Partisanship wins. America loses. The direction it is headed?
Worse.

I know, Mac, that story is the ultimate in hypocrisy! No, it's self-fulfilling prophesy.

Not really.The RNC did not do this any more than the Dems.
It was done by crooked private parties.

Yeah, I'll cut Mr. Briebus a break. He didn't sign those forms or tell senior citizens that Obama is a Muslim, a non-citizen and a Socialist. But somebody hired by him did, and in these situations the solid effluence flows uphill.
