Loyalty Oaths


From The State.com:

Dumb.

That’s how people all over South Carolina characterized the state Democratic Party’s decision to require voters to declare they are Democrats if they want to participate in Tuesday’s presidential primary.

Consider Herb Hoefer, a 52-year-old state social services worker. He plans to show poll workers his registration card, but he will not sign the oath.

And if they try to stop him from voting?

“I’ll tell them to stick it in their ear; I’m voting,” Hoefer vowed.

Mike Grogan, a 45-year-old produce manager for Publix, called himself an independent but said he will not sign any pledge.

“I’ll just turn and walk out,” he said. “Requiring an oath is not right. It’ll turn a lot of people off.”

B.J. Wellborn said she and three other voters in her home will not vote because they resent the pledge.

And John McLeod of Greenville said he had planned to vote until he read that he had to take a Democratic oath.


Matt's Chat

What did they know and when did they know it! HALLIBURTON! Lie after lie after lie after lie. This was cooked up in Columbia. We demand an investigation.

Wait a minute...oh...it is Democrats, not the evil Bush administration. Who cares?

Mark's Remarks


Again, Matt is trying to be funny. However, look at how paranoid the Dims really are. They are stooping to the level of loyalty oaths, things which liberals have traditionally been against for decades. They are stooping to the level of communism, but we know that is what they really want for America, don't we? They want to radically take away our money and distribute it to pet programs, hindering our own decisionmaking and making us work more for less. This is just further evidence of how little the LIBERALS AND DEMOCRATS value freedom and liberty.
