Oh dear Lord.  This is horrible.

Thanks to Wally for nothing.

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett’s campaign website is all made-up.  You know, kinda like the Republican Party.

All the group shots of Corbett on the website are Photoshopped including this one.

There are no attractive black women who would smile at Tom Corbett so they used a stock photo.

Then other stock photos were discovered on his site.

Truth be known, we’re not all that sure that Tom Corbett is real.  We think maybe they found a fading actor in Hollywood to pose for Corbett’s picture along with all these there people who have never heard of Tom Corbett.

Bless his heart, all his friends are too damn ugly to appear on his website.  Well, at least that’s what he thinks.  Personally, I think his friends should throw darts at his website.

Thanks to Claudia for the heads up.

Okay, guys, early voting starts tomorrow in Texas.  I’ll be busy.

The following week I am serving from 9:00 – 5:00 on the ballot board.  The ballot board verifies the signatures on the mail-in ballots, opens them and prepares them for counting.  Since we have increased the number of Democratic mail-in ballots in this county from 60 to 4,000, it’s important that we have representation on the ballot board.

We need people on the ballot board who know the rules, know what they’re doing, and can stay sober for 8 hours.  I can generally fit one of those categories at any given time.

We do get an hour break for lunch so if I post, that’ll be when I do it.  Or when I get home.

Here’s the deal:  I can live with losing an election fair and square.  I cannot live with getting it stolen from us.  And since y’all raised a hunk of the money to do the mail-ballot program, I want to protect your investment.

So, if I seem inattentive a little, forgive me.  I will post an open comment section every day and y’all can discuss things without me.  I can have a friend approve the posts.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s six page dissent on the Texas Voter ID Law includes this —

“The greatest threat to public confidence in elections in this case is the prospect of enforcing a purposefully discriminatory law,” she wrote, “one that likely imposes an unconstitutional poll tax and risks denying the right to vote to hundreds of thousands of eligible voters.”

and —

“In short, any voter confusion or lack of public confidence in Texas’ electoral processes is in this case largely attributable to the state itself.”

Literally, I did buy the shirt.

This Supreme Court needs more women, dammit.  It was the three women who dissented.

Yes, I am wearing that shirt today.

Donald Trump calling you psycho is like a bullfrog calling you ugly.

Thanks to Brian for the heads up.

You’ve heard me talk about UBS more than a time or two.  UBS is a financial criminal enterprise.

It’s a Swiss global financial services company that admitted helping Americans hide money to keep from paying taxes. And that was some of the nicer things it’s done. You can start here.

They are fixing to enter into what’s being called “a historic tax evasion trial.”

What some call the most significant tax evasion trial in U.S. history begins Tuesday, when the former No. 3 exec at Swiss banking giant UBS faces a Florida jury on charges he helped thousands of fat-cat American tax cheats hide billions.

U.S. officials years ago got UBS to admit it helped Americans hide taxes, and since then took down Switzerland’s oldest private bank and won a guilty plea from Credit Suisse for aiding tax dodgers. Now they‘re trying to hold a top individual accountable.

So here’s UBS getting ready to go to trial for cheating you and me out of tax dollars.

I suspecting that they don’t have much faith in their defense lawyer and I suspect that because…

One week before their trial starts they donate an unprecedented $320,000 to member of Congress.

Let that sink in for a minute.  Number one: they are faced with massive tax evasion and they are trying to buy congress one week before the trial starts.  Number Damn Two:  Congress gleefully took the damn money!

Holy crap.  What the hell has this country become?  A third world banana republic?

Personally, I think they should charge UBS and Congress with prostitution.

Yeah, I said.  And, yeah, I meant it.

That’s either the most arrogant or most desperate thing I’ve ever seen by a corporate PAC.

If your member of congress is on that list, tell him to give the money back, dammit.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.
