Judge Hearing DOJ Voter Suppression Case Is No GOP Tool, Was SC Judge Butler Backer

Update: Observers fear Van Hollen’s election lawsuit will cause problems

The GOP is trying to throw the election into confusion by ensuring that massive provisional ballots be cast, as well as massive delays. Van Hollen ignores this reality and raises the specter of voting fraud.

Now, come word about missleading absentee ballots sent by the McCain campaign and voter caging. 

We have a corrupt Attorney General Van Hollen fronting for the national GOP against Wisconsin's Government Accountability Board (GAB) that is sticking up for Wisconsin voters.

Van Hollen's DOJ Complaint was filed with Dane County Judge Maryann Sumi's office.

So who is Maryann Sumi?

Sumi is listed as a supporter of former Wisconsin Supreme Court Judge Louis Butler on his website for his unsuccessful reelection bid.

Butler was defeated by the GOP political machine on April 1 by former Burnett County Circuit Judge Michael Gableman.

Sumi has been on the bench since 1998 and enjoys a reputation as a fine jurist and political liberal, informed observers say.

My experience with Judge

My experience with Judge Mary Ann Sumi, is that her decisions are based on who the parties are and not what the issues are. If you ever find yourself in a courtroom where a doctor (Richard Lemon) files a restraining order against you, the patient, for asking for a explanation for his diagnosis 3 times in 1 1/2 years, you can bet she side with the fine doctor. She's corrupt just like the rest of them. The whole court system can be bought.

Political Machine?

Hey, do the Democrats have a political machine? You know, they could really use one in Chicago.

Voters rights?

I am confused at how verifying legitimate voters are only allowed to vote? Wouldn't this strengthen the cause?

Rush, Hannity, et all need

Rush, Hannity, et all need an excuse for what is coming their way on Nov 4th.
it can't be the abject failure of bush or the disillusionment with the whole Right Wing Agenda?
After all, this is a conservative country, as they never stopped claiming as accepted fact.
If you look historically, you will even see democrats going along with the historical revisionism that Joe Kennedy "fixed" the JFK election with help from Richard Daley.
There is at least conflicting information, and there SURELY is no smoking gun, but the Republicans, with their ability to stay on message and drive a meme have almost made it accepted fact the Nixon was the victim of voter shenanigans.
Get ready for the echo chamber to try to invalidate Obama, and in fact, any loss by any Republican this year
