The Obnoxious Odor of Mendacity

Amidst the GOP's determination to enact tough voter ID laws claiming that such the legislation is needed to combat voter fraud comes this Los Angeles Times report on GOP voter fraud: More problematic GOP voter forms are found in Florida.

And it's not like the GOP didn't know what it was doing:

Strategic Allied is run by an Arizona-based consultant and Republican Party activist named Nathan Sproul, who has been dogged by charges in the past that his employees destroyed Democratic registration forms. No charges were ever filed. But his reputation is such that Sproul said RNC officials requested that he set up a new firm so the party would not be publicly linked to the past allegations. The firm was set up at a Virginia address, and Sproul does not show up on the corporate paperwork.

'Nuff said.
