Experts ...

The GOP's 'expert' on voter fraud. Heh:

A new paper claiming that voter ID laws actual protect rather than disenfranchise minority voters is getting play in conservative circles. What isn’t being mention so much is the background of the paper’s author.

...

Cooper may not have any expertise on voter fraud, but he does know a thing or two about falsifying documents. Cooper was indicted in 2009 on five public corruption charges, charged with exchanging political favors for gifts from Jack Abramoff. Cooper allegedly accepted bribes as a staffer to former Majority Leader Dick Armey, as chief of staff for Voice of America and when he worked for the Department of Labor. Cooper later pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of falsifying a disclosure report and was sentenced to 36 months of probation.

...

But of course!

Hello Fixer,

You know the phrase "it takes a thief to catch a thief". But as ususal the Rethugs have stood it on its head. "It takes a thief to steal anything we want and if caught then deny that the thief was yours and blame it on the Dumbocrats because they do it too."

I think the FBI should investigate the Repugs under the RICO Act.
