Pennsylvania's Mayor and sometimes Gov. Fast Eddy Rendell has had materials sent to the state prisons to assure the felons vote (generally illegal but reliable Dem votes) while at the same time refuses to extend the deadline for the return of Military absentee ballots. The absentees were late going out due to Democrat efforts to keep Nader off the ticket (he might take votes away from Kerry). Felons for Kerry, meanwhile our Servicemen get screwed again by the Anti-military Democrat left.

Since when can convicted felons vote? I thought they lost the franchise.

Not so in Oregon. Even if they're felons they can vote if they're in jail. If they're being held in a state penitentary then they cannot vote. Rolling Eyes

Hannity was going after Rendell on the phone today on his show--Didn't get to the part about trying to be sure that inmates get to vote, though--Hannity was ripping him a whole new bodily oriface over his unwillingness to give a two week extention for the receipt of absentee ballots for our military overseas because the ballots were sent out to them so late--

Methinks he's just about assured that none of those guys will ever vote for him again no matter where they happen to be at the time--Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy, IMO--C

The fools who voted for Fast Eddy believed him when he said he was not going to raise taxes. Kerry is no different. Two peas is a pod. maybe our conservative Dems will wake up after getting screwed by the pretender. He looks more like an Adult Book Store owner or Used Car Salesman than anything else.
