Coulter cronies let vote fraud investigation run out

I'm all for throwing the book at right-wing clowns like Ann Coulter when they break the law.

The ultraconservative commentator gave the wrong address on her voter registration card and voted in the wrong precinct, in violation of federal law. Then she hired a Bush-linked law firm to defend herself in the vote fraud investigation. Coulter's attorney had worked for Bush during the 2000 Florida recount scandal and was later appointed by Bush as U.S. attorney for southern Florida. Coulter may have also illegally claimed a homestead tax deduction on her new mansion in Palm Beach. (This idiot can afford more than one mansion because she gets tens of thousands of dollars every time she gives a half-hour harangue at a campus. A couple months on the speaking circuit, and she's set for life. Being a conservative commentator is the easiest job in the world, because all you need to do is yell at a few campuses and you're a millionaire. Maybe I should become a conservative.)

Now the Florida Election Commission has decided to drop the vote fraud investigation against Coulter because the 2-year statute of limitations has run out. Well, yeah, of course it's run out, because the investigation began 2 years ago, and the Florida Election Commission sat on it the whole time. As the Church Lady from 'Saturday Night Live' might say, how convenient!

Upon learning of the commission's decision to drop the case, political consultant Richard Giorgio, who made the fraud complaint against Coulter, said, "We have an election commission that's hesitant to enforce the law."

In short, Ann Coulter committed a felony and got away with it - all because her Nazi cronies in Florida government purposely sat on their hands until the statute of limitations ran out. The whole story is yet another documented case of Republican vote fraud, and the authorities didn't do shit about it. Just goes to show that rules don't apply to Republicans.

Maybe Jeb Bush was too busy torturing kids in his teen "treatment" centers to make sure the investigation was completed in a timely manner.
