Now, where's your outrage against ACORN?

It's very difficult for an objective observer to take anyone who's so intellectually ... self-deceiving seriously.

Not to pick on you, but you do seem to be very particular with your outrage.

I have no outrage over ACORN. They champion get out the vote campaigns for poor and minority citizens, most of whom traditionally vote democratic. No wonder they're going to be in the sights of the GOP.

As for voter fraud? You mean to tell me if you hire part time, minimum wage paid people to get lists of voters to register, some of them are going to make up names instead of beating the streets? I...uh..can't really say I'm shocked or outraged over that. Especially given the fact that fake registered voters =/= fake votes.

I could be accused of being selective about my outrage, but that's just if you look at what I say here in GT. I actually get a smile out of forcing people to back up their BS. To make grandiose claims with no basis is intellectually self decieving and lowers the level of discourse. I say if you're going to make a statement, you better be sure as this is the internet and people can fact check you in seconds.

Just trying to raise the level of debate, that's all.
