Voter suppression laws (sic), overzealous filibuster use, you name it — the Republicans use every tactic they can to stop our democracy from actually selecting the person with the most support.
72% of likely voters support Voter ID laws. You know, that choice Granholm mendaciously bleats about.
Granholm is a jack-booted enforcer for voter-fraud, for the diluting the vote of by-any-means-necessary of Americans who refuse the sweet, sweet clutches of Nanny Statism.
And the first victim of Left/Democrat power-seeking is the language. Voter ID is now “voter suppression”, taxpayer-funded contraception and abortions are “women’s health” and any criticism of either is #WarOnWomen. The most radical redefinition of marriage is “marriage equality” and to not wholeheartedly embrace it is “hate” — such “hate” excusing all manner of slander, harassment and abuse directed at the “h8ters”. Any criticism of Left policy proposals is met “are you questioning my patriotism?” and any criticism of Obama is dismissed as “racism”.
Thugs like Granholm don’t even pretend anymore that there is one standard of behavior on the political stage.
When will conservatives find the resolve to finally say “enough”?
What a lying mendoucheous twatwaffle, Nobody is talking about keeping anyone from from casting their one vote. The thing we’re concerned about is the college kid or granny that spends all day bouncing between polling places casting dozens of ballots.
you know who opposes the voter id laws Darleen? I did not know this.
The same AARP what rammed the spiked dildo of obamacare up grandma’s ass.
She’s still pretty cheesed off about that.
one person one vote.
The only way to get that is voter ID.
I’ve spent half my adult life living in shitty neighborhoods where the cops stop you all the time, you do not want to walk those streets without your ID.
The claim that poor people don’t carry ID is utter bullshit that only a member of our insulated ruling class could possibly believe.
If I were to don paramilitary gear and an AR-15, and patrol my local polling place, staring down potential voters as they approached, would Jenny characterize that as “voter intimidation”? Would she then be able to compare and contrast such behavior with that of an elderly election judge asking for ID at the registration table inside?

Cheating Commiecrats.

Right down Commiecrat Lane.
You need to flash ID to get into buildings run by the State executive branch in Lansing, but for some reason that’s not “active citizenship suppression.”
Thank God for term limits. I was really, really, really tired of Granholm. I’m immensely relieved her political career seems to be dead, dead, deadski.
Granholm destroyed Michigan, and then fled the state as soon as she could.
Who the fuck cares what she thinks? She *should* be considered an embarrassment to her party.
She *should* be considered an embarrassment to her party.
I’m not sure she should be considered at all. I know I’d be happier not having to consider her ever again.
Oh Squid, why? She is gung-ho for everything they stand for. She is a shining example of their complete FAIL when implemented.
I guess I just hate thinking about what a shithole Michigan has become. Also, I don’t want to think about what a shithole the rest of the country is becoming.
Jennifer Granholme is as stupid a twerp as Beverly Perdue. Peas in a pod. Well, more like pods in a much bigger pod. For pods.
Where does Granholm get off getting to decide who is and who isn’t American? Isn’t she a Canuck? Go back to Toronto, Jenny.
She’s basically a Dolores Umbridge of the real world. (the banally evil, quasi-sadistic authoritarian teacher forced on Hogwarts by the Ministry of Magic in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix).

The State itself isn’t doing that badly right now. Snyder is quiet, but he’s righted the fisc (no more structural deficit, unlike Jenny G) and unemployment has steadily dropped since he became Governor. But we’re still too dependent on the auto industry, and the recovery is tied to the Big 3.
This is battlespace preparation.
When the Democrats lose – and lose massively – this coming November, the election will actually have been stolen by “voter suppression,” and many other Rethuglican tricks.
As a result, Democrats will feel free to riot and otherwise act up.
Oh, and BTW, why are we listening to a washed-up Canadian?
The left is looking for an excuse to riot.
That’s big talk coming from a Canuck. I wonder what Great American Patriot Andrew Sullivan thinks.
There do seem to be an awful lot of furriners trying to tell us how to run our Republic, Pablo.
If Truth in advertising applied to political party names, both would have to come up with new appelations.
The Democrats first.
