What’s humorous about this cartoon is Obama has seriously cracked down on and deported illegals at a much higher rate than his predecessor. Add to that illegal immigration has been way down because of the recession. Oh well, I suppose some will find the toon entertaining….
Fresh of the Carl Rove bag of dirty tricks, accuse the other side of the nasty things you’re doing. GOP would not have a majority in the house but for the gerrymandering.
And then ILLEGALIMMIGRANTS who we are not suppose to question by requesting even so much as a driver’s license, much less a birth certificate or even ask for the documentation that allows them to be in the country which is REQUIRED BY LAW that they carry on their person at all times can walk into a polling place in some areas (not Florida we do require ID) and request a ballot for Eric Holder (done by one “reporter” as a joke/expose’ no one cared about) and get that ballot.
Not that they would ever do anything that would violate a law…..oh wait…..they did that when they crossed the border.
Yep, you are going to PC and Empathize yourselves right out of existence America.
So quickly the republicans “forget” (read refuse to acknowledge or learn) that their own party proved that voter fraud was not a significant issue. The republicans’ lawyers association found there wasn’t (on average) one instance of voter fraud per state per year over a 10 year period. Or in other words not even 500 instances of voter fraud, NATIONWIDE over a decade. This from a republican approved organization.
But even granting that voter fraud is despicable, what is worse, denying hundreds of thousands if not millions of legitimate voters their right in order to stop less than 500 confirmed fraudulent votes? Or is it worse to have fraudulent votes numbering less than .001% of the overall vote in order to allow democracy to work? I guess that depends on if allowing democracy and citizens rights benefits the republicans or not. I guess since the republicans can’t compete on a level playing field (whose policies most benefit the people and the country, who best communicates their position etc) they must subvert the rights of the people to achieve political advantage.
Mix a snifter of Bill Mauldin, a dash of Jeff McNelly and a very large dollop of common sense, and you begin to get an idea of Lisa Benson’s considerable talent.

Yes, I’m sure you can prove it. Noy unlike all those states trying to mess up the next election for the democratic party.

Maybe what you mean is undocumented people voted. How they voted is up to them, if they could even vote.

And yet here is just one article that hints there may be a problem:

They can, and do vote. It is just illegal. Come to think of it, so are they.

@TheTrustedMechanic
Yeah, I agree. Denying someone the right to vote is bad. Prove that it happens.
AND if there is no way to check eligibility how do you know if non-eligible people vote?
