A health-related post

I'm typing this posts in the probably vain hope that doing so will help to lower my blood pressure. This story made my head throb. It had nothing to do with voting problems experienced by the people in Washington state, but rather the gall, the absolute shameless hypocrisy exhibited by the Democrats in that state.

Example #1
--------------


Rossi won the initial machine count by 261 votes and a machine recount by 42 votes.

[county supervisor]Huennekens said the larger number of unaccounted-for votes should not shake people's confidence in the outcome of an election that he said was still "99.9x" percent accurate.

I don't remember those words being uttered by this particular asswipe when the first 2 vote counts showed Rossi winning.

Example #2
--------------


Democratic Party spokeswoman Lisa Cohen said the results of the hand recount were valid and should stand, despite King County's difficulty in accounting for all votes.

"It's been the most closely observed election in our lifetimes, I think. What's very important to realize and keep in context is that King County and the other counties say that their accuracy rate is more than 99.9 percent," Cohen said.

See comment after example #1.

Let me give you guys a hint: there are a large number of people that vote Democrat just because; many Republican voters are the same. However, there are a number of voters that will cease to vote for a party that appears to not only condone, but rather actively encourages voter fraud. Grow up, folks. Clean up your act.

Update: Sound Politics has more details concerning this bit of electoral tomfoolery.
