County purposely misspells Obama's name on ballot

Weird how all the right-wing maniacs keep repeating the exact same stupid mistake, and everyone claims it's an accident.

Now it's happened again, this time in Rensselaer County, New York. Some right-wing operative with the county responsible for printing up absentee ballots purposely misspelled Obama's name as "Osama."

A Republican county commissioner said, "This was a typo." No. It was not. The 'B' key is nowhere near the 'S' key on any typewriter I've seen, and this exact same mistake has been "accidentally" made by other right-wingers before.

You'd really have to be naive to think this wasn't intentional, considering the McCain campaign has been one of the dirtiest in America's history (not counting those run by anyone named Bush). Yet everyone still keeps insisting is was accidental.

The intent of this display is even more obvious when you consider that if a voter crossed out the misspelled name and put the correct spelling, the ballot would be voided. So it's obvious they're trying to make sure Obama votes don't count.

The Republicans really are trying to steal another election, aren't they?

The moral of the story is: Wipe boogies all over Republicanism. It's a waste.
