At Least We Didn’t Call it “Operation Afghan Freedom”
Because that would have been, you know, a lie. Though I thought we were, you know, there to oppose the religious extremists. Revolting, sad, infuriating LA Times story. (H/t Bill in Portland Maine of Dkos fame.)
And while I’m talking about democracy, freedom and stuff, just how in the holy hell can the GOP justify apparently wholly frivolous legal maneuvers like this? If this isn’t clear harassment the only goal of which is to discourage early voting in a presumably Democratic-leaning area in a swing state, I’m a monkey’s uncle.
LaSota assured the judge that the elections board staff ensures voters are registered and don’t vote more than once.
When Kavadias-Schneider asked, “What of those who have already voted?” R. Lawrence Steele, a GOP lawyer, replied, “Maybe those votes should be discarded.”
And if I hear one more network anchor try to equate Republican and Democrat party tactics as being equally thuggish, I’ll go Elvis on my TV. Grr. (Big time h/t Josh Marshall…who reminds us of the hopefully foregone conclusion of the case. )
