Contact those guys at ACORN. They may already have registered and voted for you. Check under your real name and the Scavs name too , they didnt seem too concerned about details.

obviously you have not been vaporized by Mort lately then

Things are quite different now than the old Tri-Valley league. Once again, I don't mean that in a bad way.

That's not going to happen. It's one of the highest welfare county in NYS. Thanks for your concern.

saw on the news yesterday that an invalid registration doesn't equal an illegal vote-that first time voters must show id at the polling place, which might cause an issue if the registration is invalid...

I felt bad about some of the beatdowns we put on some of those teams. Bishop Scully was usually pretty tough but I dont think they exist anymore.

I would hope so...This isnt Uganda or Nepal. That the people who illegally register voters like they did arent being prosecuted harshly is a joke.

Yeah, Fort Plain was a "door mat" between 1983 until 1991. Draper was pretty good during those years.

Bishop Scully went out in like 1989 or 90. Spa Joined the league in the mid-90's. In fact, the old Tri-Valley is now the WAC which includes some old Schoharie Valley teams. Phonzie is having a field day on some of those teams. I can remember in the 80's when Spa had some big battles with Watervilet?? Or was it some other team?

not too bad for a crackhead huh? :D :D

Yeah we got booted out of the Northern league after not losing more than 1 game like 8 years in a row. Watervliet was a tough team, had a really good coach, mardigim or something like that.

Getting back to the Palin issue, Gloria Steinem hit the nail on the head today...this was in no way the fault of Palin and if McCain's people try and blame her for the loss...well, they will incur the wrath of fair-minded folks I think. MCCain alone is at fault...he picked Palin afterall. It was a cheap political ploy designed to try and get some (they were arrogant enough to think many) Hillary supporters to cross over. It was an insult to all women to suggest they'd be gullible enough to ignore all the issues just to vote for a woman. McCain either didn't do his homework or simply didn't care about her politics (far right and in most cases directly opposed to the majority of women's views). As Ms Steinem pointed out in several op ed pieces, democratic women know Hillary Clinton and she is no Hillary Clinton. To assume that women would be blinded by her gender was a huge insult. Sure, Palin could have refused to run but what politician wouldn't jump at the chance? Now we hear from the McCain camp that she went rogue and became a diva, they try and make a big deal out of her wardrobe (the money given to her by the RNC by the way). I disagree with almost every one of Palin's views but I respect her for giving it her best...she didn't lose the election, McCain did!

There was a player for Spa Catholic whose last name was Cherry and was really good, he played sometime in the mid 80's I think.

There were three of them. The one you are thinking of, Scott, went to N. Carolina.

That's right, now I remember....he was an assitant coach for team that made the NCAA tourney a few years back.

How do you know that?

I would have joined them if I was there, and I'd deeply resent being called a welfare type.

Submitting the names Mickey Mouse or a football teams roster as registration requests because someone is a voter registration volunteer who is lazy isn't a crime.

Someone showing up at a polling place and trying to vote as Mickey Mouse is.

Hasn't happened, and is not voter registration fraud until it occurs.

ACORN, by law, cannot throw out such obvious fakes (legally no voter registration card can be unforwarded to the proper election officials by ACORN) - but they have labeled them as suspected fakes and then they forward them on to election officials as they are legally required to do.

The above has been repeatedly covered in the biased liberal media press.

Now, the first Mayor Richard Daley ... ah, the good old days :p

He is at WKU but was at George mason the year they went to the final 4

The "Hilltoppers" :)

What Republican could have beaten Obama
given 8 years of Bush and the amount of money
Obama had?

It was time. And timing is often the deciding factor.
The economy cratering was huge and McCain could
not do a thing about it. No Republican could.

Colin Powell perhaps could have given Obama a run for his money....

Colin Powell had no desire to run for president.
He made that clear a while back.
But I agree if he had.
Although he would have had more problems exciting
a Republican base than McCain.

Well then get a phucking job.

I have one.

Then why the hell are you on welfare?

I'm not on welfare. In fact I'm working my ass off to pay my way through Law school.

But you put a pretty offensive label on a celebrating crowd, that I would have been a part of if I could, without having anything but the way they look to back it up.

Well i guess we better tell the state of Washington that.

What I think is the ironic part about people who defend the media as not having a liberal slant is they ignore the fact that many of the individuals who are part of that same liberal media are not afraid to say they are liberals and are damn proud of it.

Things are cool Hossy. I guess I got carried away with my Katrina analogy, which was done in very poor taste. I hope everyone understands that as well. :)

You posted an article from July 2007. What was final outcome of the criminal charges on that? How many false votes were fraudulently cast from those false registrations?

No problem Ed. The only point I was trying to make is let's get abled bodied americans working again and off welfare. Good luck with law school I may need a good lawyer someday! Sorry for the confusion!

Thanks. :)

Misunderstanding by me too, sorry about that.

phew....that was a close one...thought for a second there that things were going to get outta control.....was almost ready to have Mommy Dearest step in with a "Be Nice"

I'm finding with age, that sometimes it's better off for me just to keep my mouth shut. I hope the man becomes a great president.

What difference does it make that it was last July. You said that it wasnt a crime. It obviously is.

International incident averted

fpsoxfan, I think they have been tightening up on the welfare system, I may be wrong.
Many people like to throw welfare out as the big problem, I don't think it ias bad as the SSI, mental disability system. Many, many able bodied young Americans are getting set up for SSI for the rest of their lives. Able bodied, and no more mentally ill than the average burnout. I know mental illness, I've worked with the mentally ill all of my life. There certainly are a lot of people who are mentally disabled and can't really keep a job in society. But, what I'm seeing is a very large % of the newer SSI recipients not mentally ill in the traditional sense(before the drug companies had a new pill for every emotional imperfection), they are low functioning, undisciplined, unmotivated and,dare I say it, lazy. And here where I live, they're all white.
What ever happened to shame?

in the democrat primary? the man is not a Republican

wasn't he at one time???
