"I mean, I read the newspaper. I mean, I can tell you what the headlines are. I must confess, if I think the story is, like, not a fair appraisal, I'll move on. But I know what the story's about." —George Busch - Philadelphia, Dec. 12, 2005

You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war ... We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability. We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with." –Pat Robertson, calling for the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez

Providing proof of citizenship the 1st time to register to vote in Oregon.

Opponents, however, blasted it as unnecessary "immigrant bashing," and "a solution in search of a problem." Ref: Oregonian 3-5-05 Dave HOGAN

Ramon RAMIREZ PCUN ("immigrant bashing")

BRADBURY SOS ("a solution in search of a problem.")

Each one of these three BOZO'S deserves a COAL MINE!

Thanks Steve!

Dear Anonymous: If there is a cost to providing proof of citizenship to register to vote, that constitutes an unconstitutional poll tax. Or will the state of Oregon pay citizens to obtain the required proof? Isn't rule of law great?

To post above,

If you're gonna hide behind the "poll tax" arguement, please understand this:

You are not a "second class citizen" if you are INDEED a US citizen, or are here LEGALLY and INDEED want to become a US citizen, instead of remaining an ILLEGAL alien.

You should be proud to pony up @ $15-$100 for identification requirements for ONE TIME voter registration, that is if you are INDEED a US Citizen!

BTW, your buddy Bradbury has millions that he could offer to you to avoid your so-called "poll tax", AKA Red-Herring.
