Now, why would Massachusetts’ loving, tolerant Democrats place such an unfair and onerous requirement on their conventioneers? Have they no sense of decency?
In recent years, Democrats have argued that requiring voters to show photo IDs prior to voting is an egregious act of voter suppression. Ben Jealous, of the NAACP, has gone so far as to argue that such requirements are tantamount to modern-day Jim Crow laws. In the world they inhabit, lots of voters don’t have access to photo IDs, so requiring voters to provide this will “disenfranchise” them and leave them out of the democratic process. Funny they don’t feel that way for their own party conventions.
On Saturday, Massachusetts delegates will meet in their state’s Democrat party convention. The votes of these delegates will determine whether there are primary elections for their party nominations. With so much at state, Democrats have decided to implement Voter ID requirements:
A PHOTO ID WILL BE REQUIRED TO ENTER THE MASSMUTUAL CENTER
Those racist SOBs. I demand the NAACP refer this to the U.N. Human Rights Council immediately!
I called and asked for an explanation, here’s what they said: SHUT UP!
Smells like a poll tax to me!
They want to make sure they don’t get any fake Indians.
You don’t Dems would let the people who inhabit the world where they don’t have access to photo id into their convention, do you?
But isn’t that RACIST? (Oh, only when conservatives insist upon it so Democrats don’t vote illegally and/or multiple times.)
Look, it isn’t racist if good Democrats are employing photo ID for voting. It is only racist when bad Republicans suggest photo ID for voting. The donkeys use the racist card so wisely these days.
