Supreme court kills Voting Rights Act

The Supreme Court is releasing all it’s decisions, and one that has really given it to the Progressive Racist Democrats was the ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act. This ruling, which restores the 10^th amendment rights of a number of states, has been used for decades by the Progressive Liberal Democrats to rig elections.

First, a little background. Back in the 1960’s, the Civil Rights movement took off. This was a good thing since the Democrats in the South were doing all they could to re-enslave blacks. One of the laws passed, and of questionable constitutionality, was the Voting Rights Act ((Voting Rights Act of 1965)). The basics of the VRA was to end all the things that were done to prevent blacks and other minorities from voting or running for office.

Not a bad thing in and of itself. However, the VRA only went after specific states and counties and left others alone. Now many people said that it was these states that were doing all the things to suppress black voters. In any case, the Department of Justice went after states and basically usurped their ability to do things like set congressional districts. (It’s a lot more complicated then that of course)

Recently, a number of states started complaining that the things the VRA was supposed to do, had been done. States like Texas, which had seen problems with voter fraud as well as seeing a blatantly corrupt and politicized Justice Department rigging things not to insure that there was no voter suppression, but rather to rig elections and redistricting to favor the Liberal Progressive Democrat party. When Texas decided to pass a law requiring Identification being presented when voting, the Holder DOJ, seeing that this would actually reduce voter fraud and by the way, the chances of Progressive Liberal Democrats to steal elections, swung into action.

They accused Texas of trying to stifle minority, (Read Democrat), voters and sued to stop it. Texas and other states decided enough was enough and fought back. On June 25^th, 2013, the USSC in a 5 to 4 split, (With the corrupt Progressive statists voting in favor of voter fraud), ruled that section 4(b) of the VRA was unconstitutional. This was the section that contained the formula for determining if a state or local was using racist laws to suppress minority votes. (This is very simplistic on my part. AW)

Needless to say, the Moonbats on the left went absolutely bonkers. The race baiters and hustlers promptly attacked the decision. One was John Lewis representing Georgia. In a column in the Washington post, he said:

The Supreme Court has stuck a dagger into the heart of the Voting Rights Act. Although the court did not deny that voter discrimination still exists, it gutted the most powerful tool this nation has ever had to stop discriminatory voting practices from becoming law. Those justices were never beaten or jailed for trying to register to vote. They have no friends who gave their lives for the right to vote. I want to say to them, Come and walk in my shoes.

John Lewis is 73 years old and did suffer discrimination. However, John Lewis is 73 years old and is still stuck in the 1960’s. The very fact that we have a president of the United States who is black, (And frankly, an utter disgrace to people of recent African decent), shows just how much things have changed. Reading through the column, you can see that John Lewis has graduated to the Jurassic Democrat class of political hacks.

Then we have the most corrupt and arguably, the most racist Attorney General in the last 150 years. That would be Eric Holder. This pile of worm droppings promptly threatened any state or local that planned on taking advantage of this decision. Here is what TPM had to say:

Attorney General Eric Holder denounced the Supreme Court’s ruling against the Voting Rights Act on Tuesday, and warned in a televised statement that despite the “serious and unnecessary setback” the Obama administration will vigorously enforce the law against any state or local government that seeks to discriminate against the rights of voters.

This from a man who walked away from a blatant case of voter intimidation because the suspects were black ((Holder’s Black Panther Stonewall)).

“The Department of Justice will continue to carefully monitor jurisdictions around the country for voting changes that may hamper voting rights,” Holder said. “Let me be very clear: we will not hesitate to take swift enforcement action — using every legal tool that remains available to us — against any jurisdiction that seeks to take advantage of the Supreme Court’s ruling by hindering eligible citizens’ full and free exercise of the franchise.”

To which states, such as Texas replied: PPPPPPPTTTTTTHHHHHH!!!!! From the Daily Caller:

Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott announced Tuesday his state will re-establish its voter ID law after the Supreme Court struck down a section of the 1965 Voting Rights Act that required certain states to seek federal approval before changing the electoral process.

Now if that isn’t a “Hey Eric! Up Yours!” announcement, I don’t know what is.

“With today’s decision, the State’s voter ID law will take effect immediately. Redistricting maps passed by the Legislature may also take effect without approval from the federal government,” Abbott’s statement read.

And that was a “Drop Pants and Moon the DOJ” if I ever saw one.

In March 2012, the Department of Justice struck down the law, claiming it would disproportionally affect the state’s growing Hispanic population. Gov. Rick Perry pushed back fiercely, calling the decision “pervasive federal overreach.”

“The DOJ has no valid reason for rejecting this important law, which requires nothing more extensive than the type of photo identification necessary to receive a library card or board an airplane,” the governor said in a statement.

With all due respect to Governor Perry, Holder and his crop of corrupt crooks have one very big reason. To crush the Republican Party, the Tea Party and insure single party rule throughout the once great nation of these United States of America. Attorney General Abbot then proceeded to give Holder some remedial education in the Constitution:

Abbott praised the court’s decision and the removal of the unequal application of federal laws.

“The U.S. Constitution establishes one United States — not a divided nation with different laws applying to different states. Laws that apply unequally to just some states have no place in our nation,” his statement read. “Today’s ruling ensures that Texas is no longer on of just a few states that must seek approval from the federal government before its election laws can take effect.”

And this is what enrages the Progressive Moonbat Left. Anything that goes against whatever they are supporting at the moment is evil and must be destroyed. Nothing must stand in the way of turning the United States into the Socialist Totalitarian Utopia, (With them telling the rest of us just how wonderful things are), they so desire.

Now Texas, and other states, that for years have been forced to be a part of the Democrat’s plans, in opposition to the majority of the people, can now tell the Feds to talk a long walk off a short pier. It’s a very small start, especially after that disaster of an opinion by Chief Justice Roberts on Obamacare, but it is a start.

Thatisall
