A little different scenario. It doesn't cost a dime to have voters show an ID to vote.That's odd. I swear that's not the first time I've heard that question asked.

he raised taxes, so bullies Norquist and Rove would destroy St Ronnie, if he even made it far enough to be under consideration.

Simple fact is Republicans are passing these laws to suppress votes of people they think will legally vote Democrat and nothing else.
You can spin and spin and spin and try to change the subject and claim scoreboard 48 years ago but that is an irrefutable fact.
It's not spin. The southern/rural Dem racists were recruited into Repugs by Nixon's southern strategy after the civil rights battles and advances of the 1960s. The country is still ed up by ignorant , "Christian", Bible-thumping assholes and issues.
So the racist Repugs of today are the descendants of the racist southern/rural Dems of the pre-Southern Strategy, eg, Texas.
The South is really a different country but would suffer mightily if it were a separate country, like Greece, and not bailed out by blue state taxpayers.

You have two pastures, and two seperate types of cows.
One year a disease sweeps through both herds, a total of 420 cows.
The ranchhands get the following data about the well and sick cows, with the number of well cows listed first, the number of cows that got really sick listed second.
Southern Pasture Holsteins: 787 (793%)
Southern Pasture Longhorns: 010 (0100%)
Northern Pasture Holsteins: 1459 (946%)
Northern Pasture Longhorns: 13824 (8515%)
Is it more important to know the rate of illness, or the total numbers in determining their individual herds susceptibility to the disease?
This should be an easy question for a rancher to answer, I would imagine.
Assuming of course, an honest, direct answer.
Who in their right mind would put Holsteins on the South pasture?
It's obvious that by their very name, Hosteins are blue team cows and as such, should reside in the Northern pastures where they will support those racists bubba-longhorns in the southern pastures.
And none of them really like the black angus.
If they were really fair they would give both pastures back to the red brangus they stole it from.
It's irrefutable as long as you ignore context, maybe....
It's also irrefutable that today's GOP neocons originated from the "Solid South" Democrat machine that switched to the GOP because of the Civil Rights Act, but you'll just ignore that because it makes Team Red look bad....
That's bull . Those guys are all dead or retired. Thanks for playing.
... and everybody who replaced them was *completely* different.
The neocon braintrust is a bunch of interventionist Jews who won the ear of guys like Cheney and Bush, you for brains. Their ideological forefather is Leo Strauss, not George Wallace.... and everybody who replaced them was *completely* different.
Is this Jew conspiracy going to break up the US, as you so feverently hope?
bull . the current, and future, southern racists are now Repugs, while the generations before 1970 were racist Dems.
combining the Repug Southern Strategy with the Repug lie "we are the party of God" to pick up the racist Southern Baptists and other Bible-thumpers was brilliant politics and a very effective way to create extreme, no-compromise polarization.
Everything the neocons were ever going to accomplish already has been implemented. The bipartisan foreign policy consensus has continued to be neoconservative under Obama, largely because he was such a neophyte coming in and had no different ideas to assert.
If you read Bush's memoirs, you see that Obama has continued Bush's underpants-gnome vision of "spreading democracy" in the Middle East.
1) Topple existing regimes or let them be toppled
2) ???
3) Liberal democracy!
"Originated from" doesn't mean that the same exact Dixiecrats are still elected officials, dumb .... what it means is that when they moved to the GOP, they brought a backwards, Bible-thumping, anti-civil-rights, pro-warmongering agenda with them that still persists in the mainstream GOP today, tbh....
Wrong.... the neocon started before Cheney or Bush.... If the Dixiecrats didn't switch parties, Bush/Cheney would have been Democrats, tbh....
The constant misuse of the word neocon shows how ignorant people are.
The central think tank for the neoconservative foreign policy exemplified by the Bush Administration was the Project for a New American Century, which started in 1997.
The Bush family has been Republican from time immemorial. George W. Bush's grandfather was a Republican senator from Connecticut.
Cheney was born in Nebraska, and raised in Nebraska and Wyoming. His foreign policy views were shaped by an esteemed professor at Yale in Connecticut. Cheney's first political job was working for a Representative from Wisconsin.
So far as I know, among Nebraska, Wyoming, Wisconsin, and Connecticut, none of those states are in the South or marked by a bunch of former Dixiecrats switching parties.
I would suggest you just simply stop responding to my posts since you don't have the first ing clue what you're talking about.
Arkansas GOP Outraged About Voter Suppression After Candidate Gets Kicked Off The Voter Rolls
Arkansas Attorney General candidate Leslie Rutledge is crying foul over the cancellation of her voter registration form. Rutledge, the Republican nominee for Attorney General, was kicked off the voter rolls after it was discovered that she failed to cancel previous voter registrations in Washington, DC and Virginia, and re-register in Pulaski County when she moved.
Pulaski County Clerk Larry Crane, a Democrat, said he was legally obligated to remove her after receiving a letter flagging this issue.
Rutledge and Republican groups are calling the removal a dirty trick that was politically motivated. But what happened to Rutledge is in fact very common, and becoming even more common after the state implemented a number of strict voter restrictions, including a controversial voter ID law being litigated in court Thursday.
Democratic Party chair Vincent Insalaco pointed out in his statement that a thousand eligible voters had their absentee ballots thrown out earlier this year following the implementation of more rigorous voting guidelines.
