If the GOP or the Romney campaign had any "integrity," they would never have hired Nathan Sproul in the first place.

If you are aware of any proof of this, please enlighten me. Of course you've never heard of him. How could you when you get all your information from Fox News? | |

| Nope. But he's never been cleared, either. And this is interesting... http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57522694/voter-registration-fraud-claims-singe-gop/ - Quote :
- The Los Angeles Times reported that the RNC urged the state GOP in seven swing states to hire the firm, despite the fact that the man who runs it, Nathan Sproul, has been accused of running firms that have destroyed Democratic registrations. Sproul told the newspaper that RNC officials asked him to set up a new firm, Strategic Allied Consulting, so that his efforts would not be linked to those allegations. The RNC has reportedly paid the firm at least $3.1 million via state parties.
My point was that it's more than a bit disingenuous to compliment the RNC for their "integrity" when they go out and hire a guy that has a long history of allegations against him, especially when they ask the guy to set up what is essentially a "shell" company in an attempt to hide his involvement. | |

| I really don't give a damn what you "assume." As I said, my objection was mostly about your assertion that the GOP was displaying "integrity" in this matter. That's clearly not the case.

Well you sure went out of your way to ignore the main point of the story Why Isn't Fox News Covering Florida "Voter Fraud" Story? Hint: It Involves The GOP which was the Fox News was ignoring it,didn't you? Maybe if you didn't rely on wingnut sites or blogs that filter the news,and actually do some research,you'd do better in discussions here. | |

I don’t expect you to care what I assume and, by the same token, you shouldn’t expect me to care what you assume. And your assumption in this case is that allegations are facts. - Artie60438 wrote:

If Fox News is, as many say, the house organ of the Republican party, one would think that they would have been more than happy to highlight the Republican party doing the right thing by immediately washing its hands of any improprieties and potential fraud. It would seem that Fox missed a fine opportunity. - Artie60438 wrote:

Again, you're missing the point. I'd have said nothing at all if you hadn't jumped in and started braying about GOP "integrity." - Quote :

Sproul openly admitted that the RNC asked him to set up a shell company in order to avoid any links to prior allegations. That's not an assumption, that's a fact.And that sure as hell isn't an example of GOP "integrity." | |

And the allegations are allegations, not fact. So what's your point? | |

| It really should be obvious what my point is by now, Jack. It doesn't matter if the allegations against Sproul are true or not. There was a deliberate effort by the RNC to hide the fact that they had hired Sproul's firm to do this work. | |

Yes, because there are people out there …. ahem, ahem …. who would turn unproven allegations into fact and hold it against them. Can you blame them? | |

And now, we have yet another scandal involving the poor, innocent Sproul, and we find out that the GOP was trying to hide his involvement. Yes, I blame them. | |

[b]And which would those be? How about we start with Breitbart? Not a peep on that site,a site that you've previously posted information here. In fact,if you use their search engine to search the site,all you get is stories about guess who? Democrats. A visit to another favorite of your Michelle Malkin,whose babbling rants you like to post here, reveals the same thing. Do a search for 'voter fraud' and the nothing since July 2012. Where do you get your information? | |

Yes, the GOP was caught red-handed firing a firm that may have been involved in shady doings. The horror. Incidentally, aren't you one of those who constantly whine that there is no such thing as voter fraud? | |

[/quote] There isn't a case for voter fraud and we've proved it to you on numerous occasions. The idiotic laws that wingnuts have put in place,that are designed to place a heavier burden on minorities,the poor,and students to cast their votes,would have no effect on the voter registration fraud that the GOP has signed up for. I'm still curious,as I'm sure other members are.........Just where do the hell you get your information from,if as you claim,you "don't watch Fox news"? | |

More likely is that you put on your tin-foil beanie and it gets beamed down to you from Planet Wingnuttia. If you frequented media that reported ALL the news you'd be better informed. In fact,who knows?...You might actually be able to win an argument | |
