Rales uses addicts at rally By Jon Ward THE WASHINGTON TIMES July 25, 2006
Josh Rales, a Democratic candidate for Maryland's U.S. Senate seat, paid a drug-treatment center in Baltimore to drive its recovering addicts to last week's debate in College Park, where they held signs supporting his campaign. About 20 patients from the I Can't, We Can (ICWC) drug-treatment and counseling center in northwest Baltimore attended the debate, said Adrian Harpool, president of the 21st Century Group, a Baltimore public-relations firm hired by the Rales campaign to recruit volunteers.

Democrat minority leader Nancy Pelosi said this weekend that the only variable in Tuesday's election is whether or not the republicans allow an honest count. She cited electronic voting machines and republican dishonesty as the ONLY possible reason her party won't take control of the House this week.
So, according to the woman who wants to lead the House, voter turnout and the recent republican surge in the polls don't count. If she don't win the republicans cheated. Nuff said.
What Ms Pelosi chose NOT to mention was ACORN's illegal registration of thousands of people not qualified to vote. The reasons ranged from the registrant being dead, never existing, or being in the country illegally. Many of the applications were filled out by the same hand.
Ms. Pelosi also decided not to mention the thousands of illegal immigrants registered by liberal activist groups during a recent protest march in her home state.
The DNC already has teams of lawyers in place around the country ready to file lawsuits when elections don't go their way.
Of course it HAS to be the evil republicans manipulating the vote.

John Edwards is already planning to run for President again in '08 and he is going around the country bashing Wal-mart as an example of a corporation that is ruining our society. Wal-mart is evil. Even Edwards' six-year-old son, according to honest John, berated a classmate for buying sneakers at Wal-mart.
Wal-mart is evil.
But - there is always a but in politics - yesterday while Edwards was speaking to a group of labor union members, telling them that Wal-mart was the enemy because it didn't pay its employees enough and didn't give them enough benefits, one of his staffers (a volunteer who Edwards pays $0 / hour) called the local Wal-mart trying to get them to slip the former senator a Sony Playstation 3 under the counter.
For those who may not know, the new Playstation has just been released and people are actually fighting (one person was shot) while standing in long lines to buy them.
Edwards' son (the boy who scolded a classmate for buying shoes from Wal-mart) wanted a Playstation 3 and obviously the Edwards family didn't care what they had to do to get one (wink-wink).
Moral of this story: While it is WRONG to buy shoes at Wal-mart because Wal-mart is evil, it is perfectly acceptable to buy a PS3 at Wal-mart - if you are rich, powerful, and above the common herd.
