Confirming The Fox To Guard The Henhouse

by digby

It seems like I’ve been writing about the GOP dirty trickster/political operative Hans Von Spakovsky forever. He came my the radar way back during the “Killian memos” flap and subsequently has been revealed to be one of the prime movers in the Bush administration’s attempt to rig the vote.

Bush is trying to get Von Spakovsky’s recess appointment to the FEC confirmed today. If you’reof a mind, Christy has all the dirt on who to call to register your opposition to this mind-boggling appointment. We are facing a very important election. It’s a very bad idea to have a professional Republican vote stealer as a member of the FEC.

In case you are unfamiliar with Von Spakovsky, Here’s my post from last spring called Hans Across America.
