The Republicans Make Me Sick

Here, from truthout today is a plausible explanation for the Republican stalling tactics on renewal of the Voter Rights Act.

The article begins:

Greg Palast writes, "Don't kid yourself: the Republican party's decision yesterday to "delay" the renewal of the Voting Rights Act has not a darn thing to do with objections of the Republican's white sheets caucus. This is a strategic stall that is meant to decriminalise the Republican party's new game of challenging voters of colour by the hundreds of thousands."


and goes on from there. There are, apparently, no depths to which they will not sink in their attempt to maintain their stranglehold on government.

A plague on them all.

  2. Horrifying. History will see these people are traitors who put their party before the country and their fellow Americans. I really hope there is a hell...

  3. I didn't know that it had to be renewed every so often. I for one am opposed to ballots in multi-languages, but that's for another topic all together.

    BTW, do you use bloglines? Almost all feeds from blogger are erroring out except for yours and a few others. Strange.
