Purging the Voter Rolls in New York State

Today is Election Day in New York on this Tuesday April 19, 2016.  There are questions about times and registration.  In upstate New York they used to have voting from six AM to three but this was switched from twelve noon to nine PM, because in primaries in lower New York they don’t start till noon.  I didn’t know that.  There is some kind of a legal suit to be able to allow independents to vote because if you didn’t switch your registration by last October (?) you’re stuck and can’t vote.  Formerly I’d heard the March 25^th date, which was Good Friday and the DMV might be closed anyhow.  Shawn Hannity says that as a member of the Conservative Party he can’t vote but he doesn’t mind because he wants to be known as a proud member of the Conservative party.  Thom Hartman states that North Dakota has the least restrictive voter laws and that state is almost exclusively white and almost no minorities.  That ought to tell you something.  Some have suggested that perhaps we need a Constitutional amendment federalizing elections and granting for the first time an inherent right to Vote, which experts say is never explicitly stated in the constitution.  Of course we know the funny business going on in Colorado in the Republican party but that's a story for another day.  But it illustrates this notion of "You only THINK you have the right to the vote".   Bernie is rising in the polls so there’s still a trace of hope.  I'm thinking that we could have a repeat of Michigan where even the latest polls were all wrong predicting a Hillary landslide.  In upstate New York particularly in the northeastern part- - they share a media market with Vermont and those people are avid hunters up there.  There is another national poll that shows Bernie and Hillary within the statistical margin of error from being a tie, with Hillary two points ahead.  That ought to tell you something.  The Hillary partisans say "Well nya- nya- it's too late because Hillary already has the race locked up!"

 Norman spoke of Bernie supporters getting hot headed and emotional.  The truth is that Norman is using this “emotional” label as a red hearing to distract from the fact that we Bernie supporters have honest reasons to believe we’re right.  Nobody is saying Bernie is all good or Hillary is all bad.  Don’t put words in our mouths.  Also we know that we’ll have to vote for Hillary (most likely) in the general election because we have no other choice and we want the next Supreme Court justice picked by a democrat.  Today the Supreme Court held a ninety minute hearing on whether Obama was right in his executive order not to prosecute illegal aliens living in this country.   I had Hartman on this morning. 

The cannabis lady has a second commercial out now.  I turned on Stephanie Miller before breakfast and it’s on now.   I got up this morning at a quarter to six.  Today is Monday April 18, 2016 and Income Tax day.  I got a cigarette from Paul before breakfast and from Judy just before breakfast I got my medication from Tom.  I managed to save that last dollar till I went to the store just after seven and got a dollar cup of coffee, which I drank back here.  We had Raison Bran for breakfast followed by a fried egg and toast, butter and jelly.  I got black coffee.  Augustine was speeding up the process but there were no extras.   So just how filthy is this “sexy liberal tour”.  It might be a whole lot filthier than I dare imagine, if you’re there in Ashville watching the thing live.  Monique Marvez is on right now.

 Is Hillary secretly for Citizen’s United?  She does change her positions on things through corporate pressure such as the bankruptsy bill of the early 2000’s.  She has as much as said “For me possible temptation to compromise or engage on corrupt thought- - is impossible.  I don’t do it”.  Let me reference Justice Marshal in Brown verses the Board of Education.  The key line in that decision is “Separate but equal is a hoax because things that are separate for Blacks are inherently inferior”  I think you could say therefore Hillary’s practices are inherently corrupting and compromising.  If she were honest she’d say “Well Bernie has chosen the high road as far as campaign donations are concerned.  But as for me I really don’t care that much about the niceties of moral purity.  I’m in it for the money”.

Obama told CBS News today that we can’t allow bipartisan legislation subjecting the Saudis to potential liability for terrorism … or else other countries could retaliate against the US   This about says it all.  I think it's absurd that one nation cannot sue another.  Who made that rule?  Pat Buchannon on the Mc Laughlin group last Saturday stated that IF the Saudis are complicit in the 9 - 11 attacks in any way - - why would we NOT want to know about it?"  It's a right of the American people.  If they retaliate by not buying out bonds and T Bills who cares?  The market for T Bills is strong now- - even if artificially strong.  It's time for the Obama administration to allow the victims of 9 -11 to sue the relevant parties in Saudi Arabia and also to release those 28 pages in the 9 -11 report released in 2002.   We can't trust the Saudis and we can't trust Pakistan either- - - who provided safe sanctuaries for enemy troops in Afghanistan and sheltered Bin Laden.  We need to take another look at whom we choose to call our friends.   Saudi Arabia is no friend of the American oil or natural gas producer because they have the power to undercut our prices any time they want to and to bankrupt producers of domestic fossle fuels.
