There is much to say about the current state of the GOP, but let no one say that they are not adept at multitasking. Waging a war on women AND on voting is probably not easy, but here they are, imposing all kinds of restrictions on abortion as well as new laws in ten states that require voters to show certain kinds of ID. So if you are an old lady and yourcertificate of live birthbirth certificate has your maiden name and you are too old to drive so you don’t have a driver license, you can give up on voting unless, of course, you can get someone to schlep you out to the ID office on one of the FOUR DAYS it is open this year. (Also, the ID office may be 100 miles away, but apparently that’s OK because rural poor people are “used to driving long distances.”) Oh and also! The wars on women and voting are going so well that it looks like there might be a war on math looming on the horizon, because according to the Heritage Foundation, three equals two and $25 equals $0.

It&#039;s a de facto poll tax. Which is unconstitutional. <blockquote>The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice President, for electors for President or Vice President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress, shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax.</blockquote>
The states could avoid this by indemnifying citizens for any costs associated with getting a voter ID. But that would cost money that millionaires need to re-decorate the stables for their dressage horses. (&quot;Next on HGTV...&quot;)
It&#039;s also unseemly that these laws are all taking effect with the upcoming election. Tinkering with election rules like this should be deferred until after an intervening election lest people think the legislators are acting out of self-interest. Oh wait...

Just getting rid of ACORN wasn&#039;t nearly enough. There will be Engish-only ballots, posters stating you must have all tickets or taxes paid before you can vote, and an all-out attempt to suppress traditional Democratic voters: people of color, students, and the elderly.

This post reminds me why I hate Rick &quot;Goat Fucker&quot; Perry. Thanks Wonkette for elevating my blood pressure.
How the hell can these evil fucks be stopped?
