Voter Intimidation?

The NAACP is planning to go to the UN (of all places!) to charge that various states in the U.S. are adopting laws aimed at preventing minorities from voting.  


I don't know what's going on in all of the states, but here in Texas the legislature has passed a law requiring a photo ID in order to vote. How egregious!  


The "logic" of the argument that this requirement disenfranchises minority voters escapes me.  It's not even as if you have to go pay to get an ID, at least in Texas. If you don't have a valid drivers' license or some other acceptable form of ID, the state will provide one for you free of charge.  


I would guess that most people have some form of photo ID. Don't the minority voters who would supposedly be barred from voting ever engage in any activity that requires a photo ID? Heck, I recently went to a new doctor and had to show my drivers' license at that office!


Is it possible that Democrats are so vehement in their opposition to this because it reduces the risk of voter fraud?  Makes one wonder, doesn't it?

MSNBC Gets Crazier

Well, I hear that MSNBC analyst Karen Finney says that Republicans like Herman Cain because he's a "black man who knows his place" and we're trying to show we're not racist.  


Excuse me, Karen, but conservatives don't look at a candidate's skin color; we judge him or her on positions he or she puts forth.  We certainly don't have to prove to ourselves, or anyone else for that matter, that we're not racist.  We know we're not.


Democrats consistently accuse Republicans of things that they themselves do.  One of the main reasons Obama was elected is because liberals were swooning over the opportunity to demonstrate how tolerant they are and to prove (to themselves?) that they aren't racist.  


I think one of the main reasons people are attracted to Herman Cain is because he's not afraid to say what he thinks and we largely agree with his opinions.  Why is that so hard for liberals to grasp?  

Tyranny in Our Government

Nancy Pelosi is pushing to bring her monstrous health care bill to the floor for a vote on Friday or Saturday.  The tyrannical Speaker of the House has crafted this bill, called by the Wall Street Journal "the worst bill ever", completely behind closed doors.  Representative Michelle Bachman, speaking on Sean Hannity's radio show today, said they even went so far as to change the locks on the doors to keep out Republicans.  Where in the world is our "post partisan" president? 

We are staring tyranny in the face.  Are we going to fight or flinch?  I for one plan to contact senators and representatives to express my feelings.  Tea Party Patriots has made it easy to send faxes and has a list of targeted senators and representatives.  Please take a few minutes to contact these people, either through e-mail, phone, or fax, to clarify to them what our will is on this matter and what the consequences will be if they go along with Ms. Pelosi. 

Nancy Pelosi has made it clear that she is willing to sacrifice Democrat seats in the House to get this abomination passed.  Note to the Blue Dog Democrats:  why would you sacrifice your political career for this hateful woman? 

What do you plan to do to stop this impending train wreck?
