Two political cases were decided today by the Nevada Supreme Court and a district court judge. The cases, whether the supposed Tea Party candidate and a judicial candidate can be on the ballots for the upcoming elections. The district court judge ruled for the fraud of a Tea Party candidate and the Supreme Court decided against the judicial candidate, knocking her off the ballot.
From the Sun: "A judge has ruled that Scott Ashjian can remain on the ballot as a Tea Party candidate for the U.S. Senate.
District Judge Todd Russell rejected the legal challenge of the Independent American Party, which argued Ashjian lied on his declaration of candidacy.
Russell said he “did not believe that he (Ashjian) engaged in a knowing and willful attempt to avoid the election laws of the state of Nevada.”" http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/apr/15/judge-rules-tea-party-candidate-can-stay-ballot/
The argument for Ashjian to be kicked off was he didn't technically follow the law. While his defense basically said he mostly followed the law. The lawyer for the IAP(Independent American Party, a true conservative third party brought the suit and their lawyer had a great argument: (from the LVRJ) Hansen, the Independent American Party candidate for attorney general, compared what Ashjian did with someone who gets married before he has gotten a divorce from his current wife.
"You get married in the morning when you are already married and then that afternoon you get a divorce from your first wife," Hansen said. "That is called bigamy. http://www.lvrj.com/news/tea-party-of-nevada-candidate-ashjian-to-remain-on-ballot-90997149.html
Meanwhile the Supreme Court Ruled ruled today: (from the Sun)The Nevada Supreme Court, within hours of hearing oral arguments, ruled today that Las Vegas Lawyer Amber L. Candelaria should not be on the ballot for election as a justice of the peace...Candelaria got her license to practice law Oct. 17, 2006, but she paid her dues to be admitted to the Nevada Bar the previous fall.
Attorney Daniel Polsenberg, representing Candelaria, told the court the people should decide the qualifications of the justices of the peace, not the Nevada Legislature, which enacted the standard. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/apr/15/court-upholds-decision-remove-candidate-ballot/
So, Amber Cadelaria, essentially followed the law and she was kicked off the ballot on a technicality.
Two court decision's with two different results. I hope the IAP goes to the Nevada Supreme Court to get a final decision on the fraudulent Tea Party candidate.

I thought you may be interested in a recent post by Chris Hansen. I understand from him that his family shares his same self proclaimed (bigoted) ideology.

You mean like the US government does to people they claim, without a trial, are enemy combatants and shipped off to GITMO?
I am a strong supporter of Operation Wet Back back in Eisenhower days. I support harassing known illegal aliens.
Medicare is not insurance. It cannot be our it would be unconstitutional. It is welfare just like unemployment or Aid to Dependent Children. You have no contract. Congress can eliminate Medicare or Medicaid or Social Security with a single vote.
You are owed nothing. You are not entitled unless Congress says so. Welfare used to be called poor relief until about 1907 AD. It is Socialism. It is Charity at the point of a gun and is anti-Christ
