We're getting word now of how the Obama coronation ceremony tickets will be allocated, and the details of how to pick them up-
Tickets must be picked up in person on Saturday or Sunday at one of 13 Obama campaign offices across the state. Those picking up a ticket must show a photo ID then activate their ticket online, by phone or in person by Aug. 19.
There's some irony. As Richard Combs observes;
These are the same liberal progressive community-organizer types who've fought tooth and nail for years against requiring voters to present IDs. They're the same people who denounce every attempt to fight vote fraud — the kind facilitated by all the fake registered voters created by ACORN, the far-left activist group for which Obama worked — as voter intimidation, discrimination, and the chilling of political expression.More audacity of arrogance. More leftist self-righteousness. The standards that they want to apply to everyone else don't apply to them. Because, after all, they're noble and good and have only the best of intentions. They can do whatever they want because they're doing it to make this a better world!
It might not be a double standard, though. They might be just be signaling the importance of the occasion. Seeing Obama is more important than actually voting.
That night I plan to be in downtown Denver, taking in the tear gas ambiance with a large group of bloggers. You are also invited. It's the Rocky Mountain Blogger Bash 5000, Donkeys Over Denver! All you need to do is go here and leave a comment.
Yo!
Der linkie ist geb0rken.
I can think of one location down there where I'd like to see tear gas employed. :)
I'm unaware of a constitutional right to attend a political party's events. A right to vote, I'm aware of.
I'm also unaware of any significant voter fraud in any state in the Union, as are the courts. When there's any actual evidence of such a thing, I'd be interested in hearing about it.
Hi Gary! I hope NC is treating you well. I know you've been a fairly regular reader here, so you might remember this:
An old post..
Fraud of this sort is damn near impossible to prove. Not terribly hard to perpetrate, though.
Superb website you have here but I was curious about if you knew of any user discussion forums that cover the same topics talked about here? I'd really love to be a part of group where I can get opinions from other experienced individuals that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thank you!
