how’s that “true conservative” ideological purity working out for you guys?

I didn’t wake up this morning expecting to see a reference to Franz Kafka on HotAir, but I guess Gregor Samosa didn’t wake up expecting to be turned into a giant insect Indian pastry either.

Ditto – Kafka doesn’t visit all too often, but when he does… anyhow, right-backacha with a side of mint chutney! ;-)

It’s important to note that Sen. Coleman laid out his case for why he thinks he’ll win and why the courts must intervene to eliminate the mistakes and injustices involved in the recount. Sen. Coleman put together a flawless, compelling logical argument.

That’s the final stark contrast between Sen. Coleman and Mr. Franken. Mr. Franken hasn’t tried enunciating a coherent, compelling rationale for his ’stop the recount’ lawsuits.

Mr. Franken can’t enunciate a coherent, compelling rationale for his lawsuits because there isn’t a coherent, compelling rationale for his lawsuits.

Thanks ;)

Now, what’s this about Al ‘Corrupt Clown’ Franken owing $50,000 in back taxes to 17 States? Are the good people of Minnesota ready for a Dodd-Leahy-Specter wannabe?

ELP = greatest prog group ever, screw Yes!

Ok, thems fighting words.

ELP was a great prog group no doubt, but so was Yes. You can pump one up without bashing the other.

Also, something about Norm Coleman to stay on topic …

some will want to amend the laws to remove elections, period.

Isn’t that the goal of President Obambam and the DNC?

Put in other terms, that would give Gitmo detainees more appeals than a losing candidate in Minnesota.

The Gitmo detainees won’t need any appeals. They will probably be released before the Minnesota recount is complete.

I doubt anyone would be that foolish, as it all but negates the entire election contest process.

A commie state like Minnesota would never want that./

More votes than registrations……don’t worry about it.

On a serious side, how the frak does this happen?

possibly included, a few missing ballots have turned up here and there,

I guess I’m more naive than I thought.

Is it just me or our elections looking more and more like a farce?

You just plain cannot have a process that counts more votes than you have voters who signed in! I mean, come on… if I was living in Minnesota I’d be TICKED at this seriously flawed process.

What enlightening though is that there is no real MSM press looking at these shenanigans… no investigation… they’ve let it die… gee…. wonder why…

If the state doesn’t want election contests, then they should amend the law to remove those provisions — but that would leave no legal recourse for candidates who want to ensure that the recount process has some oversight.

At the rate we are going, some will want to amend the laws to remove elections, period.
