If You Wait For Facts Before Wetting Yourself Regarding Terrorism, Terrorists Win!

And will vote for Hillary Clinton to boot.

Via Sadly, NoI see that the Wall Street Journal actually printed John Fund’s claim that eight of the 9/11 hijackers were registered to vote. The rightonutosphere has snatched this claim up and waved it like … wow, nothing works here. A bloody shirt? A big foam finger and a Yankee game? A super-jumbo Root Beer gulp at a Magic-The Gathering convention? Whatever.

As Sadly, No points out, the significance wrought and overwrought from this claim is that (a) anti-vote-fraud measures are crucial and (b) terrorists are threatening to … wait for it …

That’s right, my friends. Eight dedicated members of Osama Bin Laden’s mass-murdering army … were capable of casting a ballot for the candidates of their choice in an American election. And who might some of those candidates be? … Democrats, one and all, led by the Great Obfuscater [sic] herself, Hillary Clinton.

The horror … the horror …

But as someone said, facts are stubborn things. And elusive too, apparently. What is the source for this claim?

Eight of the 9-11 hijackers, eight of the 19 hijackers, were registered to vote — because they’d gotten driver’s licenses.

Except — ooops — neither state in question automatically registers you to vote when you get a license.

Read all of Sadly, No’s entirely justified scorn.
