Excuse Me While I Rub This In
Yesterday morning, local Republicans smirked that nothing would come of the serial Republican voter fraud in True the Vote’s front yard. GOP county commissioner candidate Bruce Fleming has purposefully double voted at least three times.
Do not mess with me. Seriously. And do not mess with Bev Carter. Even I’m afraid of Bev Carter. Honey, she will shoot you, stuff you, hang you over her fireplace and then open her house for the home tour.
Front page of the Houston Chronicle this morning.
And the guffaw of the day comes from Fleming himself in the Chronicle article …
“The less said is better,” Bruce Fleming said when contacted by phone late Tuesday afternoon. “Until we can determine the situation, I can’t really comment.”
The less said is better? Dude, how about the less voting is better?
And there’s Channel 2 in Houston – that’s Bubba on the far right and the only time you’ll find him on the right.
By yesterday afternoon, former GOP county chairman and current Republican State House candidate Rick Miller, the person who has to take at least 50% of the blame for this mess, was described as “very pale.” During a candidate debate in front of the teacher’s union, one of our most trusted Democratic candidates overheard Miller talking to the GOP sheriff candidate, fretting that this “might be a black day for Fort Bend Republicans.” It is the first known time that “Fort Bend Republican Party” and “black” has been used in the same sentence. Hell, even in the same conversation. This party is whiter than angel dust in Antarctica.
In all honesty, I’ve never seen old white men dance around like their feet were on fire. It’s damn entertaining. Local GOP candidates who were Fleming’s best friend on Monday are claiming not to even know him today. And the Republican Party organization who gave this guy $10,000 and nothing to other GOP candidates? Oops, bookkeeping error.
Oh lookie, even their signs are holding hands.
Miller and Fleming are tighter than skin on a sausage. And I am not the only person who thinks that Miller knew about the double voting, thought it was clever, and gave Fleming the first ever Precinct Chair of the Year Award while other Republican mouths dropped open because Fleming had done nothing to deserve it.
Rick Miller is a braggart and a thug and is going to do everything he can to embarrass the Republican Party once he’s elected to the State House. Y’all, please vote for Rick Miller!
Thank you to all the people who kept my phone ringing off the wall last night.
Sounds like a lot of petard hoisting going on in Texas. About damned time!
1This is just too much fun!
2“The less said better.” Dang, he even talks like Palin! Can he see Russia from Fort Bend? Isn’t he just full of his own self (I can hear the wizzard now, “Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!” or is that “These are not the droids you are looking for.”)?
Perhaps he needs to return to school where he can study government (once is all you get), and English (the – used correlatively before each of two comparative adjectives or adverbs to indicate equality: the less said the better)! Honestly, it is no wonder the man is out of work. I can’t believe anyone – even the Rpublican Party would hire him, surely they are not that desperate.
Oh, wait…..
3Well, is Bucks County, PA or Fort Bend County, TX going to collect the homestead exemption refund that is owed one of them. Maybe both of them, he could be “The Man without a County.”
4Just put this one on my Facebook page, too!
5How can you be Republican Precinct Chair of the Year when you pulled Democratic ballots in not one, but two Presidential primaries in two different states 2008?
Also, “the less said the better” equates to I have a relative who took a correspondence law course and he said to STFU.
6So damn disgusting and hate to be the negative one but nothing will come of it more than likely. This is where our country is at.They do this shit cuz they know that. Just like the killer bush bastards .
7Following up on what daChipster noted, here in Pennsylvania you have to register as a party member a month (? or so) before the primary to be allowed to vote as a member of the party. I am quite familiar with this as I have to continually change my party affiliation depending on who is running on which party ballot. I became a Republican so I could write-in my friend for township supervisor on the Republican ballot last year and stayed a Republican so I could write-in Barrack Obama on the Republican ballot this year. The other odd thing is that we have “non-partisan” elections for things like county level judges (real judges, not Texas “judges”) and school board directors which means that the candidates cross-file and appear on both of the primary ballots. This usually results in the same candidate on both lines of the general election ballot so if you want any say in who fills those positions, you have to register as an R or a D. The rest of the year I’m a member of the Green Party.
8I hope he gets charged with a felony.
9Headline reads:”Dems allege man voted in Bucks and Texas”
Story begins: “After months of heated debate on the need to identify voters with a photo, Bucks County is investigating claims of election fraud by a man who allegedly mailed-in ballots from a house 1,600 miles away.”

Heh. Lawyered up and needing a change of pants?: “The newspaper was unable to reach Fleming for comment Thursday. A statement posted on his campaign website notes that, “in light of recent newspaper articles, please be aware that all allegations are being investigated. My attorney has advised me to remain silent for the present time,” the statement read.”

11That is very funny 🙂
