In another case from the robed clowns on the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, an Arizona law that requires proof of citizenship when registering to vote and proof of identification when casting a ballot was struck down on grounds that it was superseded by the National Voter Registration Act.
Former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor cast a concurring vote for the opinion which drew praise from the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law and the League of United Latin American Citizens.

Dennis Kucinich; The Anti-American Congressman Supports Code Pink
As Dennis Kucinich, facing a tough reelection bid against challenger Peter J. Corrigan, and his supporters skip around Cleveland telling everyone how wonderful he is -- you can bet the truth about Dennis is not being told.
Dennis Kucinich, the top Socialist in Ohio, who recently voted to defund our troops in Afghanistan is also a supporter of groups that work against the national security interests of the United States and lends aid to terrorists targeting our soldiers....
From American Thinker --
Dennis Kucinich, the top Socialist in Ohio, who recently voted to defund our troops in Afghanistan is also a supporter of groups that work against the national security interests of the United States and lends aid to terrorists targeting our soldiers....
From American Thinker --
Last week, American Thinker published evidence that Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Congressmen Henry Waxman (D-CA), Raul Grijalva (D-AZ), and Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) made it possible in 2004 for Code Pink and other radical groups to deliver $600,000 in cash and supplies to enemy insurgents and their families in Fallujah. Two days later, Lt. Col. Robert "Buzz" Patterson posted the diplomatic letter Waxman wrote to assist Code Pink's mission.
Waxman's Republican opponent, Korean War veteran and former Marine Chuck Wilkerson, calls the letter a "smoking gun." He adds, " ... to actively assist getting aid to people who killed and wounded Americans on the battlefield is beyond forgiveness. If aid and comfort were given to the enemy, this borders on treason." Wilkerson is asking the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate whether Waxman is guilty of "aiding and abetting a declared enemy of the United States in a war authorized by the Congress." Attorney General Eric Holder has yet to comment.
Fellow leftists have attempted to defend Code Pink's actions by arguing that the supplies they gave to the insurgents were merely "humanitarian" in nature. The evidence supports a different conclusion. For example, the radical delegation made a point of meeting with associates of radical militia leader Moqtada al-Sadr and other advocates of killing U.S. troops. The supply mission also served as a propaganda coup for U.S. detractors, attracting sympathetic coverage from an array of hostile international media outlets including Al Jazeera and Iranian TV.
Who is Code Pink?
Code Pink presents itself to the public as a group of "Moms" who oppose violence and war. In reality, Code Pink's leaders are not peace activists at all, but dedicated Marxists who for decades have conducted a political war against the American system that targets the U.S. military.
Delivering supplies to America 's enemies is not a new occupation for Code Pink's leaders. Founder Medea Benjamin helped create the Institute for Food and Development Policy in the 1980s to support Nicaragua 's communist dictatorship in its war against the U.S.-backed Contras. Code Pink's Kirsten Moller and Sandra Brim also worked for IFDP. As the director of Medical Aid, Brim even flew an American neurosurgeon to San Salvador to operate on Revolutionary Party Commander Nidia Diaz, who had been wounded in combat. Two months earlier, Diaz's group had claimed responsibility for the murders of four U.S. Marines and nine civilians.
Medea Benjamin also founded Global Exchange, a forerunner to United for Peace and Justice, the vast "anti-war" coalition led by American Communist Party member Leslie Cagan, and helped organize the destructive 1999 riots against the World Trade Organization and capitalism in Seattle . Benjamin and Cagen teamed up again in 2004 to form Iraq Occupation Watch, which quickly opened a center in Baghdad to encourage American troops to defect and desert.
Code Pink's purpose is to reduce the effectiveness of the U.S. military by all possible means. These include denouncing U.S. troops as war criminals and murderers; manufacturing sympathy for enemy states, groups, and combatants; and coordinating activities with those same enemies. The group works to undermine military recruiting efforts and ROTC programs and lobbies to insert anti-military propaganda into U.S. school curricula. At a typical protest in 2007, Code Pink members and their supporters reportedly defaced a Marine recruiting center in Berkeley with signs slandering our Marines as "traitors" and "assassins."
Perhaps the most contemptible aspect of Code Pink's anti-military jihad has been its relentless harassment of wounded troops at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington , D.C. The group has held dozens of protests in front of the Army Medical Center , loudly chanting slogans and waving signs with thoughtful messages such as "Maimed for Lies." They also lined the sidewalk with a row of mock caskets. Most of Code Pink's hospital demonstrations have been held on Friday evenings, when the recovering soldiers are being visited by their parents, spouses, and children.
Why Fallujah?
Since "humanitarian aid" could have been delivered to any of a dozen war-torn cities in Iraq , why did the leaders of Code Pink and their fellow radicals choose Fallujah?
In late 2004, Fallujah was the last major stronghold of organized resistance to the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq . Long known as a hotbed of insurgent activity, this was the city whose residents had murdered four Blackwater USA security guards the previous March, burned and mutilated their bodies, and strung up two of the corpses on a bridge as a display.
The first attempt in 2004 to control the city had failed, and by November the stage was set for a major military engagement that would cost fifty-one Americans their lives and wound another 560. Such was the environment that inspired Code Pink to collect supplies and cash to support what Medea Benjamin openly described as "the other side."
The evidence clearly indicates that Code Pink's mission gave aid and comfort to America 's wartime enemies in Fallujah, a clear-cut act of sedition made possible by the group's allies in Congress -- Democrats Barbara Boxer, Henry Waxman, Raul Grijalva, and Dennis Kucinich.

Geithner tout's "savings" in Record-Breaking $1.3 Trillion Deficit
U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Acting Director Jeffrey Zients released a statement regarding our new record-breaking $1.3 trillion annual deficit & a $13.5 trillion total debt. Well practiced at putting lipstick on a pig, Geithner defends the ballooning of big government spending claiming the deficit & debt could have been higher if not for the Administrations careful stewardship...
Due to careful stewardship of the emergency programs, their effect on the deficit was much smaller than previously estimated. The Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) had outlays of just $9.0 billion in FY 2010, which was $25.9 billion or 74 percent below previous estimates from July 2010. Aid to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac was $52.6 billion in FY 2010 – $16.4 billion or 24 percent less than the most recent forecast.Taking into account the out of control spending & the ever increasing federal entitlement programs equal to $53 trillion in unfunded liabilities are "unsustainable" and has our country barreling down the path to an unrecoverable financial ruin we would have to respectfully disagree with Mr. Geithner's statement of, we have a long way to go...." November 2nd is coming much sooner than he thinks!
"By carefully managing the emergency initiatives to stop the financial panic and by accelerating our exit from those investments, we have significantly lowered the cost to taxpayers, bringing the costs of the financial rescue down by more than $240 billion this year. However, we still have a long way to go to repair the damage to the economy and address the long-term deficits caused by the crisis," Secretary Geithner explained.
