This sort of thing is hard to just note. I desire either some reason to dismiss these findings, or if not, to be outraged. Anyone know anything about the organization behind this report? If it is legitimate, isn't the appropriate response to try to help them in some way?
It is as though someone is picking our pockets, and we know about it, or have good reason to suspect, and do nothing. In that situation, isn't the victim as blameworthy as the pick-pocket?
It's probably more accurate to say that the Dems used to be just as bad, and are willing to be just as bad, but are now led by leaders so incompetent that we should treat every day that one of them doesn't piss his pants on national tv as a major success. Stealing a contested state is well out of our present capabilities.

ok, the victim is not as blameworthy. But still, pretty unsympathetic, no?

Yes, agreed, but I'm just noting it because I don't have relevant knowledge to judge the claim. Follow the trackback on this one, it's good.

Man, I read this stuff, and I think I should be doing something. And I have absolutely no idea what.

Yeah, there's that, too.

According to Ralph Luker, the Democrats are just as bad.
Duly noted.
