More Reich Wing efforts to prevent voting.
http://www.truethevote.org/

Hmmm... no mention of the massive (illegal) voter deletions in Florida. In fact, they want to make it easier to delete 'felons' (even though not all states have bans on felons voting). Even though it's been shown that out of state felon lists are unreliable.

Funny, how Liberals are all about 'let all people vote, count all the votes' while Conservatives are all about 'don't let them vote, don't count their votes'. It's as if they know that the more people who vote, the less likely they are to win.

2. So, I visit the website..
And look up the organization they rail against: Houston votes
http://www.texanstogether.org/site/PageServer?pagename=HoustonVotes

And I check out the Houston Votes website, and compare it to the 'true the vote' website.
Houston votes: makes no mention of political parties.
True the vote: makes many mentions of the 'dishonest Democrat party'.
Houston votes: many pictures of happy people of many different hues.
True the vote: video of cranky pasty white people complaining.
Houston votes: states they want everyone to have a voice in thier community.
True the vote: states that they want to prevent 'illegal' voters, mainly in inner city Houston.

The difference is clear to me: we've got another astroturf GOP front upset that a non-partisan get out the vote organization will get non-whites voting. Again.
