Yesterday Hot Air posted an article entitled, A national call to action: One citizen, one vote. What a great idea!
According to an article out this week in a left leaning news source:
""Minnesota Majority, the North Star Tea Party Patriots and Minnesota Voters Alliance plan to spy on your voting this Election Day....
"Are volunteers going to approach voters in line outside schools and fire stations and scare them into showing their papers?
"DFL Party Chairman Brian Melendez smells a rat: Election Integrity Watch is trying to dissuade minorities and seniors from voting. 'There's a possibility that they will keep people from turning out to the polls,' he told MPR.""
It is amazing to see the left accuse conservatives of voter intimidation. Aside from the obvious example of the New Black Panters in Philadelphia, I was informed of a similar incident in one of our western states. It was handled well. There is a difference culture in the west than in the east. The person the intimidation was directed at informed her intimidators that she was voting with her two friends--Smith and Wesson. That ended the intimidation.
This is the call to action in the article:
"Inspired by the first ever Beverly Hills Tea Party, the situation is that as Americans we need boots on the ground across the nation at the polls, not only to vote but ready with cameras and video recorders. This is a national call for citizen journalists!! If you are a volunteer working the polls and you see something happen please document and record. Resolute Media Group, Emerging Corruption and other New Media outlets will use social media (i.e. Face-book and twitter) integration to get the stories out that the liberal media will not cover accurately if at all. Text "Patriot" to 90210."
The article points out:
"When America was founded, ordinary citizens used the media to spread ideas and even those who lacked funding were able to find ways of disseminating information. As citizen journalist our role is not to interact or intimidate, but to observe and report. The left should look at this as protecting the rights of everyone and they are welcome to participate."
