My good friend Alan Vera of True the Vote told me long ago that we have a two party system: the Corrupt Party and the Stupid Party. To that fact, during the weekly True the Vote webcast, Catherine Engelbrecht related a meeting she had with RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, asking what the GOP would do about voter integrity. The answer?
Nothing. They aren’t legally able to. (I’m not joking.)
As part of a lawsuit settlement with the Democrat Party, the Gutless Old Party agreed to not engage in any voter protection initiatives. Two of the clauses read this way:
(e) refrain from undertaking any ballot security activities in polling places or election districts where the racial or ethnic composition of such districts is a factor in the decision to conduct, or the actual conduct of, such activities there and where a purpose or significant effect of such activities is to deter qualified voters from voting; and the conduct of such activities disproportionately in or directed toward districts that have a substantial proportion of racial or ethnic populations shall be considered relevant evidence of the existence of such a factor and purpose;
(f) refrain from having private personnel deputized as law enforcement personnel in connection with ballot security activities.
ACORN Whistleblower Anita Moncrief added that when she spoke at the Republican National Convention, she had to submit her speech to make sure nothing she said could be construed as violating the order not to assist voter integrity.
I now think the characterization “the Stupid Party” may be too kind.
Engelbrecht said to add insult to injury, the judge who signed the agreement has long since retired, but every single year comes back for the sole purpose of renewing the order for another year.
Moncrief pointed out during her comments [in the conference] that in visiting the Democrat advocacy groups in Ohio, they were organized, motivated and purposeful in getting out their vote as was witnessed by the long line of Somali and Ethiopian voters bussed in to polling places. When she visited the Romney campaign offices, she said there was utter confusion, many were just sitting around waxing about how the couldn’t wait to “Free Willy.” (ORCA was the name of the failed computer program the Romney campaign tried to use to “micro-target” volunteers to get out the vote where it was needed.)
It was down all day, and finally late in the day people were sent out with printed registration cards to go find people to vote.
Wasn’t I told by all the non-TEA Party Republicans that Romney was the best chance we had because he ran such great businesses and had the money to compete with Obama? Just asking.
Moncrief said one other thing of interest. When she visited random Ohio polling places, there was almost never a GOP poll watcher and always a Democratic one.
We wondered why the RNC wasn’t screaming bloody murder over the evidence of voting fraud? Of course, the RNC petitioned to get it changed this year but the Obama appointee denied it. Surprise, surprise.
Now you know.
And while True the Vote has done amazing things in bringing awareness to the issue of voter integrity, it is clear from the comments made tonight that they are just resigning themselves to the lost election and enormity of the Democratic advantage. And that’s not okay.
Obama only won by 400,000 votes in 4 states, all of which showed Romney ahead in the days leading up to the election, but losing by a substantial margin, all of which have precincts that inexplicably went 99% for Obama and had voter registrations that exceeded their population, all of which have public statements of problems with voting machines changing Romney votes to Obama.
It is obviously up to We the People to do our job and hold the individual Secretary of State in each of these states accountable. Sacrifice at least reading the next four funny Facebook postings from your Aunt Freda and call/email and or petition these Secretaries here.

The RNC signed a consent decree but it does not apply to the state parties and candidates.
Could you please fix your links in this post? They aren’t working.
Working for me, Jenny.
There is a NEW PLAN… We can still overturn the election results. The electoral college has NOT voted yet. If we can get 1/3 of the States to NOT VOTE. Then the vote goes to the House of Representatives.
The Republicans have a majority in the House and WE HAVE enough RED STATES to do this. To Read this PLAN and HOW it works go to:

This WILL work. We CAN’T give up it’s too important…Pass this on to everyone..Facebook and Freedomworks…Tea Parties….everyone in RED STATES GET ON THIS. PLEASE

Actually we have only one political party over two sub-parties. The Republican Party continues to choose it’s own candidate and ignore what the people desire as their candidate. Great article.
The Repukeagains are the GUTLESS party
The RNC signed a consent decree but it does not apply to the state parties and candidates.
Pardon me. Have I missed something? When did it become legal to sign a consent decree by a part-time judge to violate the law or our fundamental constitutionally guarnteed rights to participate in federal elections? How is this even possible? Who signed this consent decree on behalf of the RNC?
Rick Butkowski…you are 100% correct !! In addition, I would like to know exactly WHAT DATE IT IS that this clown and defrauding judge makes his appearance before both the RNC and the DNC to re-affirm the continued loss of “rule by the consent of the governed” !!??
Perhaps it is damn well time that that Republicans BALK and FAIL to renew this UNCONSTITUTIONAL pact…which had NO right to exist by law.!!
ANYONE WHO BELIEVES THAT THERE IS NO VOTER FRAUD, IS ” DEAD IN THEIR BRAIN”…

This is CRAP! How did George Bush contest the vote in Florida if this article and alleged lawsuit settlement is true. Sounds like someone just doesn’t want Mr. Romney to be President.
Bush did not contest the vote. He was the declared winner, but Gore challenged and sought the lawsuit that led to the “hanging chad” issue. So based on this article’s facts, it makes perfect sense. Gore as a democrat could file a suit and contest the vote, with the full backing of his party, but Bush could only maintain a defensive position until the challenge, at which point the consent decree no longer applied.
For those who oppose massive legal and illegal third immigration and, above all else, the changing demographics, you will have to speak out loudly: join an immigration reform group, like FAIR (strength thru numbers); when you get a political fundraising letter, return it, with no money, and state your opposition to the immigration tragedy; call a radio talk show to let thousands of listeners know we exist; write/e-mail your local newspapers to express your opinion (so far, three item were printed in The York Post); and, finally, fax your rep in congress. I am sure they delete e-mails concerning this subject very quickly. More can be done on this front. Do your own gardening; don’t go to restaurants. You would be amazed at how money you save. PLEASE FORWARD THIS!!
As regards those “settlements”, illegal contracts are “null and void”, nenforecable…..

OK, See no one can convince me they are not both totally corrupt and covering each others butts. They probably have tons of dirt on each other. Im so sick of these criminals running the nation. Full of nice words, oily pigs that do nothing but lie.
This article is inaccurate. The Consent Agreement between the RNC and the DNC is that neither can Monitor Poll stations MEANING they cannot seen poll watchers. The Candidate’s Campaign or a 3rd Party CAN send poll watchers.
I spoke with the GOP Legal Department on this item specifically – so PLEASE – call them yourselves (the legal department) AND clean up the propaganda as we do NOT want to be like the Left. REMEMBER we are the party of FACTS.
Correction to the above: “cannot seen” should be cannot send/be poll watchers.
Where dose a ‘judge’ get the authority to come ‘out of retirement’ to enforce an ‘agreement’ that sounds fishy, at best? Who IS he, and where does he got off?
As I see it, we Conservatives have no representatives (and have had none for a very long time)in either the GOP or democrap parties. Both do what their agenda demands with no consideration for the voters. The pervailing mindset of BOTH is that we’re too darn dumb to understand what’s “good for us”. Well, maybe Obambi did us a favor and woke a lot of us up and we formed the Tea Party. The financial cliff we’ll be going over, no matter what the Congress does in January, will wake up a few more. The new taxes and fees the regime will demand will finally get the attention of even the most inattentive and stupid. The Tea Party is our only surviving hope…and the Tea Party has a choice, split from the GOP or take over the GOP…..either way, that’s the only way to salvage what’s right about this nation.
This is a crock. So some people knew about this (for 30 years, yet) but never made it public, never told anyone in position to do something about it? Oh, and we did have an election in 2000 that certainly was contested , so where was this 1982 compact then?? You know, the GOP looks bad enough without this kind of misinformation. Who starts crap like this??
If this is all true, how can you account for all of the Democratic losses in presidential campaigns (1980, 1984, 1988, 2000 & 2004)? By your argument, Democrats would have “rigged” these elections, too.
they did
I refuse to believe that there is nothing that the GOP can do to prevent voter fraud! They’re just lazy, sad, and don’t give a damn anymore! “To hell with the country–we need our rest!”, they say. Defy the order!
2012 – The Commission on Presidential Debates is a private corporation headed by the former chairmen of the Republican and Democratic parties. The CPD is a duopoly which allows the major party candidates to draft secret agreements about debate arrangements including moderators, debate format and even participants. The result is a travesty riddled with sterile, non-contentious arguments which consistently exclude alternative voices that Americans want to hear.
This documentary also reveals the big corporations who “sponsor” the CPD and how third party candidates are purposely excluded. One of these sponsors, Annheiser Busch, is partly owned by Senator John McCain’s wife. Former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura’s election as an independent candidate proves that opening up debates can lead to real change – something the entrenched Republican and Democratic Parties don’t want to see.
