Conservatives bleating about fairness in Wisconsin --- you don't want a fair vote process.   You don't want voting to be simple and accessible for all citizens,  because most citizens know your policies are garbage.
Try to stay in touch with the facts.

That’s just how he lost you. Try not to drown in the river of bullshit you inhabit.

The country may be in lockdown, but Cheryl and Terrence Moore — black natives of the Deep South — felt there was no more important place to be Tuesday than their polling site, in surgical masks and latex gloves, voting in Wisconsin’s fiercely disputed primary.

“After the polls taxes and the poll tests, the lynchings and attack dogs, our ancestors dying and people putting their lives at risk at every opportunity, not to do our part because of a virus?” said Terrence Moore, 50, a pastor and business development coordinator at a Milwaukee neighborhood chamber of commerce.

“I would betray that legacy by staying home,” said the former South Carolinian, who waited 2 1/2 hours with his wife to cast their ballots at the city’s Riverside University High School. “It would be a dishonor not to honor them in this capacity.”




Amen.

“We’ve come this far by faith
Leaning on the Looord
 Trusting in His Holy Word
He never failed me yet ...”

Your party blocks rational modifications for the virus and I am starting trouble.


What was the legal basis for the court ruling?  By law - the ruling was 100% just.  They cannot make a ruling that gives any advantage off the initial election rules - all votes in by April 7 - and extending the deadline would have done just that.

I suppose members of the WIS Rep. party could have just let the Gov's order stand.  I don't begrudge you that.  But is that what their party elects them for?  To give away advantages/votes?
The Repuican led legislature that blocked all efforts to adapt the election because.of the pandemic. THE LEGISLATURE. Understand?
I don’t think you have a clue.

Boy did she get suckered by Lucianne Goldberg whose family is still making bank on that scam.

When your party’s electoral strategy depends on fewer people voting it means they know their policies suck for most people...

Republicans know they can’t win an election straight up.

My latest...

One of the things I learned in politics back when dinosaurs roamed the earth and Baby Boomers were the young upstarts is to know EXACTLY what you are fighting for, and more importantly, you must know when you are WINNING.

When this coronavirus hit the world, the debate in America over “Medicare for all” was done. Guess what, Bernie, you won.

He hadn’t figured out that a whole lot of Democrats were buying what he was selling, they just didn’t want to buy it from him. Bernie never closed the deal with the Democratic base because he never recognized when his movement morphed into a cult of personality. It’s no longer about politics.

Yes. Your sentence is that you will spend the rest of life as a miserable stupid prick watching the causes you champion wither and die.

It has been many times confirmed by Hairy, others, but most of all by yourself.

You got most of five years to prepare your next appeal.

Thanks Larry. Good insights on the state of the party. You are right that the virus also changes everything, but we aren’t sure exactly how yet.

This was another quite informative article from the site,
