Support Obama; Four Million Felons Can’t be Wrong
2008-10-05 19:49:00 The AP unwittingly has stumbled over one of the ways the Demoats are using to gain power in November: Fostering the Felon vote. RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Undaunted by the heat, James Bailey spent his late-summer afternoons walking Virginia’s bleakest neighborhoods on the hunt for ex-cons — each a potential voter who might cast the decisive ballot in this hotly contested state. Finding them isn’t the hard part. It’s getting them to admit that a past mistake has kept them from the ballot box. “People are really, really reluctant to say, ‘I lost my rights to vote,’” Bailey said of his quest, which continued in the run-up to Monday’s registration deadline in Virginia for the November election. Nationally, there are roughly 4 million released felons whose convictions have cost them the right to vote at least temporarily, if not permanently. To return to the ballot box, felons must negotiate suffrage laws that vary from state to state, in man...

Sending Felons Off to War
2008-05-11 18:12:00 Sudhan @18:10 CET By Ivan Eland | ConsortiumNews, May 2, 2008 Editor’s Note: George W. Bush, who once saw himself as a modern-day Alexander bestride the Middle East, now presides over two military quagmires in Iraq and Afghanistan – and has to scrounge around for Americans willing to fight. The growing unpopularity of Bush’s open-ended wars, especially the one in Iraq, has forced the U.S. military to recruit more and more felons with potentially disastrous consequences, as the Independent Institute’s Ivan Eland notes in this guest essay: Enmeshed in two military occupations that have turned into well-publicized quagmires, the Army and Marines are understandably having trouble enlisting new recruits. Their answer: vastly increase the number of convicted felons and other societal miscreants accepted into their ranks. According to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, from 2006 to 2007 the Army more than doubled its felonious recruits and the Marine Corps incr...
