There may be voter
fraud in New Mexico. There certainly is a lot of talk about it, all of it originating with Republicans. Recently, a Republican who claims
‘someone’ registered his 13-year-old brought suit to require ALL newly registered voters to show ID (the true goal is to require ALL
voters — period — to show ID).
There doesn’t seem to be any curiousity, even in our faithful Media, about who registered
little Robbie Republican. Doesn’t that person have some culpability?
Now our Republican US Attorney, David Iglesias, has stepped in
by starting the first-ever fraud watch. Something is wrong, he intones, consistent with the party line.
Why are Republicans so
worried? Well, how many unregistered conservatives do you think there are in New Mexico in comparison to unregistered traitorous commies?
Therefore, every new registration would seem to have better than even odds to belong to a liberal satanist. So, first, let’s scare some
folks (I recommend white hoods). Next, let’s denegrate the process so thoroughly as to discourage some folks. Finally, let’s make sure
we’re on record as denouncing the process so when we lose, we can claim it is only through fraud. These guys invented destroying the
village to save it.
But why do Democrats resist IDs? Well, Republicans imply it’s because they’re cheaters. But imagine a Democrat
and a Republican head for the polls. One passively hands over his ever-present ID to the authorities. The other forgot/lost his. Which
one is a Democrat? One has driver’s license, work ID, NRA card, dozens of credit cards, IDs up the wazoo. The other has nothing. Which
one is a Republican?
Quick: how many of the 2 million Americans in prison today are Republicans? Maybe that explains Republican
support for long sentences AND opposition to restoring voting rights to those who serve their time.
Finally, the judge who said it’s
too late to change the process is also a Republican — and clearly not an activist. Seems like an all-Republican show — everywhere.
Register. Vote. Change things. mjh
