Robert Reich on Voters Rights

A few moments ago, in the lobby of the hotel I'm staying at in Washington, I ran into an old friend who’s become a conservative Republican. He’s incensed at the news that billionaire investor George Soros has committed $5 million to lawsuits attacking voting restrictions put in place by Republican-led legislatures and governors -- including ID requirements and limits on early voting. “You criticize the Koch brothers,” he said. “Soros is doing the same thing, but he’s a liberal so you don’t criticize him.”

“There’s a huge difference,” I said. “The Koch brothers’ political machine is spending over $900 million on the 2016 election – much of it to dismantle environmental and safety regulations, and cut taxes on the wealthy, in order to further enrich themselves. Soros is spending $5 million to help preserve the voting rights of the poor, minorities, and young.”

“That’s a lot of crap,” he said. “Soros just wants to give Democrats an advantage, even if it invites voter fraud.”

“Voter fraud is a red herring,” I said. “It’s nearly non-existent. These restrictions were put in place to make it harder for millions of low-income Americans to vote. Soros deserves the thanks of everyone who cares about our democracy. The Koch brothers are intent on stealing our democracy.”

At this point he turned around and walked away, muttering to himself.

Ann Coulter - The Brightest Bimbo on the Planet

Adios America

Who but Bimbo Ann Coulter could turn Mexican crime problems into an anti Democratic rant and say the Dems are turning the US into a Third World Hellhole. This woman has no pride and is only in it for the money ..... like many Republicans.

Coulter: Media ignores beheading outbreak in Mexico to help Dems

In "Adios America, The Left's Plan To Turn Our Country Into A Third World Hellhole," Coulter charges that the media is playing a role in helping the Left cover up Mexico's crimes, especially beheadings. She notes that the practice has been going on for years in Mexico, and has even crossed into the United States.

Coulter has her own description: "One of Mexico's most notorious beheaders is now living freely in the United States because of Justice Brennan's footnote. In 2010, fourteen-year-old Edgar Jimenez Lugo beheaded four men in the wealthy resort town of Cuernavaca, Mexico, and hung their corpses from a bridge over a busy road, their heads and genitals lying nearby.

Don't harness the wind

Wind is a finite resource and harnessing it would slow the winds down which would cause the temperature to go up.   From Chairman of the House Senate energy conference committee - Joe Barton

Yes ... and harnessing the sun would put it out

Ted Cruz Arrested for Being an Arrogant Prick

Go Grandma

83-year-old Ida Stanley was taken into police custody early today (last November) after she attempted to handcuff and haul away Senator Ted Cruz for “crimes against sanity.”

“You have the right to remain silent…and wouldn't that would be a nice change,”

“You have the right to not flap your gums…to cease and desist with cheesy grins,” 

“To stop talking down to Americans when you’re really not that smart.”

“If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you…but I think the $1.3 million you got from Comcast to neuter the internet should cover those costs easily.”

Rick Scott hates science

Another case of what the hell were the voters thinking

This goofy looking idiot not only does not believe in climate change or global warming, it seems he has banned State officials from using the terms  climate change or global warming in any official capacity. Here is the result.

Officials at the Florida Department of Environmental Protection have been ordered not to use the term “climate change” or “global warming” in any official communications, emails, or reports, according to former DEP employees, consultants, volunteers and records obtained by the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting.

The policy goes beyond semantics and has affected reports, educational efforts and public policy in a department with about 3,200 employees and $1.4 billion budget.

Orrin Hatches a Scheme

Orrin Hatches a Scheme that does not exist

That scheme would be the non-existent GOP medical plan

I have family that don't like Obama Care and for the life of me I can't imagine why .... except they have enough money to pay for whatever health care they want.  The GOP does not like it because it's not theirs and has Obama's name on it. This coming Wednesday the Supreme Court is going to decide if the Republican charges that "the Obama administration used the IRS to deliver health insurance subsidies to Americans in violation of the law"

And the GOP replacement plan goes like .... "There are no more ideas to be found; no more detail to be had. This isn’t a plan. It’s the barest possible sketch of some nascent ideas that could, one day, be used as the basis for a plan."

The GOP is about tearing anything Obama or Democrat down and they could give a shit less about average Americans.
