OT: Voter registration problems in Oregon?

A paid canvasser might have destroyed voter registration forms.

Similar deal in Nevada.

Political posts are no longer allowed. It's all sports, all the time here.

That's not about politics, it's about a crime.

"My friend"? You're even starting to TALK like Rush Limbaugh.

Okay then, what if we talk about the political views of basketball players - is that allowed? Or how about the basketball ability of political figures? Can we talk about the early life of Bill Bradley but not his later career? Do we have to specify which Bill Bradley we're talking about?

Sidenote: even if we're not allowed to post about politics, it's not "all sports all the time" - most of Hap's posts are about Idaho or the Beach Boys (or the Beach Boys in Idaho) - which is of course, fine. And even politics gets in - it's just migrated to the .sigs. For example:

This makes me sick. Just sick.

I find it funny that Republicans hail themselves as true patriots and true believers in the goood ol' american system. Then they go and cheat, lie and shread their way to victory.

I'm sure every Republican is a lying, cheating sleazeball. After all, if a couple of them cheated, it must mean that all of them do. Right?

By that logic, every Democrat is a lying, cheating womanizer, since that's what Clinton was. Right?

Sorry if it came off as though i thought they all were lying cheaters.

It is just funny how you never hear tampering stories like this about the dems.

I like how Clinton's personal problems regarding his sex life are considered equal to lies and dishonesty in the political and governing world. Lying about a blow job = electoral fraud.
