The maiming of the Voting Rights Act today, June 23, 2013,
is the most dramatic and clear cut example to date of the radical Right’s
philosophy of government; if you can’t beat ‘em cheats 'em. If you can't win a fair fight, weight your
gloves and go for the kidney punch.
Hubris, Justice Ginsberg said, and hubris it is – an exercise in
arrogance and insolence. Tonight the
U.S. Supreme Court is the lowest court in the land, slithering on its belly
back toward a time when the words equality and liberty mean less than nothing
if you weren't the right color. Who
empowered these bloody overblown ambulance chasers, Roberts, Scalia, Thomas,
Alito and the man who used to be Justice Kennedy to wipe their ass with the
Constitution? This is how a loud,
ignorant, bigoted minority wins elections and loses the principles on which
this country was founded with the tacit approval of those who are suppose to
know better.
It is time to start an information sharing network designed
to educate people living in states where vote whoring hacks pander to a small
and malignant base. We must help people
learn how to comply with the idiotic laws that are being pushed through state
houses and signed by governors all over this country so that they might shove
them up the GOP’s ass in 14.
