Can't stand Roberts [View all]

Let's see, according to Roberts, because minority voting is up in states previously sanctioned by Section 4 and 5 of the VRA it is now time to to toss the issue back to Congress for a redo (which won't happen).

According to Robert's logic airbags and seat belts should not be installed in vehicles because far too many people have been saved by them and big auto companies should not be required to install them anymore. It is a burden you know.

The true Rethug logic here is they will use the Supreme Court as the last ditch obstacle to prevent the changing demographics of our country from swinging elections to Democrats and away from the Teabaggers.

Bush V. Gore was the early roll out of this strategy.
