Fafblog is a good blog. It is the best blog.
I'm sittin in Orlok's Diner right now havin a mug a root beer an a slice a fresh lizard pie in Mole City where John Kerry an George Bush have both visited in the past two days. Four years ago if you'd said the Kingdom of the Mole Men would be a battleground state somebody would say you were crazy. But not this time. This time you're in Orlok's Diner askin him about the election an eatin lizard pie."Upworlder filth!" says Orlok. "Orlok kill upworlders and feed their skulls to lavabeast!" Like most mole people Orlok is a simple hard-workin man of simple hard-workin stock whose quiet faith in family an country guides him through the day. I tip him for the pie an ask him what he thinks a John Kerry an he throws a dinosaur bone at me. Orlok is a Bush man.
What is "voter caging", you ask? Well, it's like this.
You take a recently registered voter who might live in a predominately-minority neighborhood, or might have a minority-sounding name.
You send registered mail to that person.
When they don't pick up the registered mail at the post office, and it's returned as undeliverable, you challenge that voter's eligibility to vote on the basis that they gave a false address.
Now, there's a couple of downsides to this process. Like the fact that you could be indicted for election falsification. Oh, and the part where you're going to burn in hell. But other than that, it's a great way to win an election.
Technical problems have kept me from rrr for a while. I've been using LiveJournal instead, and Lordy McJesus does LiveJournal suck. So, I'm back.
