Barack Obama is using a lawsuit to suppress the military vote in Ohio, a key swing state. A state law allows for an extra three days of early voting in Ohio for members of the US military, including National Guard and reservists. The Obama for America campaign, along with the DNC and Ohio Democrat Party filed the lawsuit to overturn the law, which was meant to compensate for military voter disenfranchisement that has been chronicled the last three elections. So, once again, the Obama administration is attempting to stack the deck for the elections, hoping to be able to throw out as many military voter ballots as possible. Just another day in the Obama ′War on America.′
Obama is indeed at war with America. He is at war against Capitalism. War against religion. War against Catholics. War against Women. War against small businesses. War against oil. War against coal. Obama is now even waging war against school discipline! An executive order Obama signed last week will attempt to force schools to raise the threshold required to expel or discipline black students while lowering the threshold to expel or discipline white students.
How tragic our national politics have become since Obama took office. The shameless Obama thinks he can do whatever he wants. His goal is to destroy America, reducing our great nation into a wasteland. Luckily, America is fighting back! The Chick-Fil-A episode this week shows that the country is ready to give Obama the finger. Millions of Americans, including Blacks, Hispanics and Muslims, all oppose same sex marriage. Is it any coincidence that the Barack Obama campaign is raising less money lately since he changed his stance on gay marriage? No! America has had enough! Come November, Obama will be voted out of power and then we can start to recover our morality and common sense.

The lawsuit Obama’s presenting is to block the GOP law that does away with three days of early voting for everyone except those covered under the UOCAVA. That law restricts voting rights for as many as 913,000 Ohio veterans including military retirees.
You are covered by UOCAVA until you leave active service so once you leave, your voting rights become the same as any civilian.
This isn’t something that I just made up.

“That law restricts voting rights for as many as 913,000 Ohio veterans including military retirees.”
Would that not be advantageous to Obama since most military, active military, retired military, or veterans tend to vote republican ?
So please, stop pretending like you give a sht. You as well as I know that you could care less about any military demographic as the majority of them lean right.
You’re fcking up your own argument and are too fckin stupid to see it.
With a few exceptions, the people you mentioned are here on American soil and no one or thing is stopping their vote come election day or via absentee ballot.
However, Barry does not want to afford the active overseas military and extra three days because Ohio being a swing state those overseas ballots could very well make enough difference to lose Ohio for him.

Your last sentence Micky, is exactly why intelligent conversation is impossible with you or the cloned hacks you speak for (or as). The argument is not nor has it ever been that President Obama “does not want to afford the active overseas military and(sic) extra three days”. This is the very lie that has been debunked. This is the distracting lie that you’re using to unjustly bash Obama. You falsely claim Obama’s lawsuit is meant to take away voting rights from military families when in fact he is simply trying to restore voting rights to all Ohio residents.
On another note that directly relates to this, Ohio is now attempting to make it even harder for Democratic voters to vote by lowering the time window in Democratic counties to 8 am and 5 pm, while expanding Republican counties hours. Seriously! Starting October 1st, voters in Dem leaning precincts like Cleveland, Columbus, Akron and Toledo will now only be allowed to vote between 8 am and 5 pm on weekdays, when most work. Republican counties have expanded early voting hours on nights and weekends, when most people have time to vote.
Can you honestly tell me that’s fair? That’s an equal playing field? That for Obama or anyone else to sue to restore equal voting rights for everyone would be saying they’re trying to take away voters rights?
You cannot, nor can your cloned sockpuppets, answer that with any rationale as that would conflict with your agenda.
August 10th, 2012 at 7:31 pm
You’re being disingenuous.
If everyone in Ohio had the same rights as active overseas military it would offset the advantage those overseas are meant to have.
Enough already ass hole.
I tried being nice to you and you perpetuate the circle with straw man bs while attacking me personally, again.
Fck you

“You cannot, nor can your cloned sockpuppets, answer that with any rationale as that would conflict with your agenda.”
Fck you.
You’ve never rationalized anything here, nor answered mine or Andys questions.
You blew it. Like many liberals before you.
I offered up polite discourse with no name calling or persona smashing and you still cant help your pathetic hateful ass.

Wanna talk about voter suppression by many proxy means ?
Lets bring up ACORN and New Black Panthers who’ve yet to answer for crimes at the polls caught on tape.
Better yet.
Ask Holder whos suckin his dick and you’ll have your answer.
The documentation is there on tape for everyone to see.
I’ve been humble in admitting both parties play with the electorate and explained how it pi$$es me off.
Yet you acknowledge no BS on this issue coming from the left.
That makes you an ideological bigot.
One of this countrys biggest problems that prevents any results and promotes gridlock.
We’ll try again when I think you can behave.
God knows I’ve tried

Forget it Ron, you are merely rearranging the deck chairs.
The post was debunked in comment 9 and 5 times since then. We are now approaching 60 comments.
You can put the words in any order you want and the answer will still come back as Obama is trying to take the 3 day window away from the military. Is he? Of course not, but that doesn’t seem to matter.
So you will keep getting the same responses, in addition to “ANSWER MY QUESTIONS”.
Do the questions have anything to do with this subject? Well, no, “BUT ANSWER MY QUESTIONS”.
By the way, I think the law was intended to make it more convenient for the military to vote. I don’t think the intent was to “give them an advantage”.

Convenience is an advantage…jeeZ
Debunked in 9 ?
#9
“Republicans in Ohio passed a law to RESTRICT early voting three days before the election to ONLY military personnel.”
That means overseas military gets a fair edge like everyone at home still has absentee ballots and the “”convenience” of being able to get to the polls.
#9 is saying Barry wants everyone from Ohio, regardless of their location to have the same convenience,
That convenience, if afforded, for “all Ohioans” would offset the point of the present laws fairness to active deployments.
Obama wants to see this happen.
Buzz.
You’re using GOK too back up Ron ?
You should apologize to Ron
“300,000 thousand Ohioans signed a petition to vote on having this law overtured.”
Well, that wont help much.
Ron said theres close to a million vets in Ohio.
You and Ron should get together. Then you’d both actually be funny
“Rather than face this referendum, the Republicans overturned the law, but it is still in effect due to a technicality. The Obama Administration is suing Ohio to fully repeal the law, AND ALLOW EARLY VOTING THREE DAYS BEFORE THE ELECTION FOR ALL OHIOANS, INCLUDING MILITARY PERSONNEL, WHICH IS THE TOTAL OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU ARE SAYING ABOVE.”
Bullsht GOK.
Heres the quotes that show Barry wants all military, which would include overseas deployed.
Romney camp;
“We disagree with the basic premise that it is ‘arbitrary’ and unconstitutional to give three extra days of in-person early voting to military voters and their families, and believe it is a dangerous and offensive argument for President Obama and the DNC [Democratic National Committee] to make,”
Katie Biber, General Counsel for the Romney campaign wrote in a memo issued Sunday. “It is despicable for the Obama campaign to challenge Ohio’s lawful decision.”
The memo follows comments issued by Romney Saturday denouncing the Obama administration’s actions. “President Obama’s lawsuit claiming it is unconstitutional for Ohio to allow servicemen and women extended early voting privileges during the state’s early voting period is an outrage,” Romney said in a statement in which he pledged to stand with “the fifteen military groups” defending the state law.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
“But Obama staffers say the Romney campaign is “completely false and misleading” in its characterizations.”
Really ?
“What that lawsuit calls for is not to deprive the military of the right to vote on the final weekend of the campaign, of course they should have that right,” Obama’s top campaign advisor David Axelrod told host Chis Wallace on “Fox News Sunday.” “What that suit is about is whether the rest of Ohio should have that same right.”
There you have it from the horses ass himself.
The rest of Ohioans do not deserve the same convenience as active military.
” And I think it’s shameful that Governor Romney would hide behind our servicemen and women to try and win a lawsuit to try to deprive other Ohioans of the right to vote.”
Romney wants to deprive Ohioans of their vote ?
NFW ! Say it aint true (it aint true)
How can this snake with too much eye liner substantiate that ?
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
So there you have it folks

This was in complete.
“Bullsht GOK.
Heres the quotes that show Barry wants all military, which would include overseas deployed.
Shoulda said;
“Bullsht GOK.
Heres the quotes that show Barry knows all military, which would include overseas deployed, would be at a disadvantage if he had hi sway by extending the same convenience to the whole state.
You guts really suck at math
