exas Attorney General Greg Abbott has warned a group of UN-affiliated “international election observers” that they could be subject to criminal prosecution if they breach state laws by being within 100 feet of polling place entrances.
The US State Department issued a warning as well. No, not to the election observers — to Texas:
International election observers planning to visit Texas polling places have “full immunity” from being arrested in the United States, the State Department said when discussing a letter from the Texas Attorney General.
“I’m not going to get into any kind of hypothetical situations or predict where this is going to go other than to say we have every expectation that this will be worked out and to state the fact, which is that under U.S. law they are eligible for immunities,” said State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland. Reporters tried to get her to state explicitly that Texas could not arrest election observers from the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), but Nuland would only reiterate that OSCE observers have full immunity.
Hey, it’s not like the State Department has anything else to worry about.
The “observers” will in part be looking for voter fraud and suppression activities by conservative groups. They’re only monitoring conservatives because nobody on the other side of the political spectrum has been busted in a voter fraud scam since, oh… Wednesday.
A list of where the observers will be stationed is here. Because this group is affiliated with the UN, the comptrollers of those listed cities would be wise to prepare to have to unpaid parking tickets on the ledger until the end of time.

Shoot to kill any and all UN people interfering in our elections.

The United States hase no legislative jurisdicition in Texas, but it may: Nor does it have criminal jurisdiction in Texas except: For an example, we have United States v. Lopez (93-1260), 514 U.S. 549, where the Supreme Court decided the Commerce Clause of the Constitution didn't grant unlimited legislative jurisdiction to the federal government over the States, in this case Texas, on a criminal case.
You know that. I know that. Lots of people know that. But there are so many people who don't pay attention and don't understand that we are losing America even more then it is already lost. Thanks for sharing. I count you as one of the good guys. Or gals perhaps.

It's a trade off for us monitoring half the other elections in the world, dummy.
Almost every country in the Middle East is awash in oil, and we have to side with the one that has nothing but joos. Goddamn, that was good thinkin'. Esso posted on 2012-01-13 7:37:56 ET
I saw that list earlier somewhere. None in my neck of the woods. Columbus is a little over an hour away.
The UN should be bombed by the U.S. Army. They need to stay out of America. Real Americans don't like the UN.
They need to stay out of America. Real Americans don't like the UN. YOu want the US Army to bomb New York? LOL Conservative is becoming another word for Pendejo.

I want the UN out of America. Hell you should get out too. You mind is not right.
Yeah right, little borderline boy. Stay off my freeways since you don't want to pay for them. Maybe you should join the military if only to see how fast they can get rid of you.
