If You Think You’re Having a Bad Day …
You can just count your lucky stars that you’re not Mark Harris. This is at the top of Google News front page.
Today they added the check Harris wrote to McCrae Dowless PAC to hire him to come corrupt another campaign.
And when your own son says that he warned you about what was going on and you just kept clutching your Bible and passing the offering plate, it don’t look good.
And then, after all the testimony you now say that maybe there should be another election because the public doesn’t trust the process. Not that you did anything wrong, but the public needs to see you do it again? No, no, there can be another election but you should be watching it from jail.
Like I said, there are bad days and then there is this day for Mark Harris.
And I can’t think of a sweeter guy for it to happen to.
Well, yeah, I can. Quite a few, actually. Pretty much all of them Republicans.
1Instead of Voter ID laws, we need more Republican Political Operative Laws to insure the legitimacy of elections.
2Imagine if the money and effort Kris Kobach and Donnie wasted on infinitesimal voter fraud had been directed at election fraud. Never mind. They’re committed to Roger Stone/Karl Rove/Lee Atwater style election fraud.
3No second election. Why should the candidate who came in “second” have the stress and expense of having to run again? As in many competitive contests, if the winner has been proven to have cheated, the win goes to the runner-up as the actual winner.
4How does he get to call a “do over” election?
Fool me once then fool me again?
How about electing him to cell block 19 for a full term?
5The SOB started blubbering. Listen to the preposterous lie to cover for himself:
Caught in his falsehood, a tearful Harris claimed that he did not remember these discussions because he was recovering from a recent infection that had triggered multiple strokes and affected his memory. He then said he wasn’t prepared for the “rigors” of the hearing, and called for a new election.
I would call for a medical crainial discovery operation with prosecutors standing by with subpoenas at the ready.
6My first reaction to the Election Board calling for a new election was, “Hell no!” Cheaters don’t get a new contest, their opponent is declared the winner and is seated! Too damn many PC Democrats in this once great country. Republicans and their claims of systemic voter fraud are obvious instances of projection. They know they’re committing voter fraud, so the Dems have got to be guilty. SAD!
7I’m pretty sure that new election includes a primary. Good chance that Mark Harris does not get on the general election ballot. Unfortunately that probably helps save the seat for the Repugs.
8Damn glad with the way things turned out in NC. Just hope the guy who ran against Harris gets the brass ring this time around. Wow! Was he **ssed with the original results and I don’t blame him. He was right. He didn’t spend all that time int he middle east serving his country to be treated so shabbily.
9If Harris is so vulnerable to “memory loss” and “infection” and “stroke”, he doesn’t belong in any office and should for his own health retire from public life. Show me the doctor bills.
10The most fascinating part of this debacle is the younger Harris, an Assistant US Attorney, who saw immediately what was going on, and repeatedly tried to warn his father, who ignored him. The kid, who somehow ended up far morally superior to his papa, testified against Harris.
While tearfully conceding that there should be a new election due to this “mistake”, Harris also had some very unkind words for his son, calling him “arrogant” among other things. No, Mr. Harris. Unlike you, your son John appears to be an honest, ethical individual who respects the rule of law.
