Atlantic Magazine Writer Admits Voter ID Does Not Suppress the Vote
Newsbusters ^ | June 19, 2021 | P.J. Gladnick

For years it has been a key part of liberal dogma that requiring voter ID really means voter suppression. However, magically in the last few days, liberals including Stacey Abrams and many media outlets have "discovered" that, hey, voter ID does not suppress the vote in any significant way. Of course, there is an ulterior motive in this "discovery" as we shall see.

Among those who have somehow found out very conveniently that voter ID requirements does not suppress the vote is someone who until recently was vehemently against such a requirement to the extent that he railed against in in June 2020 in a Time magazine column, "The Racist History of Voter Registration." His name is David Litt, a former Obama speech writer.

However, Litt's objections to voter ID miraculously vanished this week as you can see in his Atlantic magazine column, "Democrats Should Take the Deal on Voter ID."

I don’t buy it. What are they up to? Libs don’t do anything like this without a plan behind it. Something stinks.

Well, maybe the dead vote a little . . . okay, A LOT! So, you see, there is a REASON we need to fight voter ID!

Read the whole article. It's all about supporting Manchin's bill so that he will hopefully support the filibuster after the GOP votes it down. Oh, and it's still NOT constitutional.

The Dummocrats learned something in the 2020 election: there are Republicans who are willing to be just as crooked as they are. Further, the voter fraud was so blatant, with no repercussions, that a number of formerly honest people will be participating in the unfair-election game in 2022 and 2024 unless reined in.

This is especially true now that The People have clear and present firsthand experience with what Big Government can mean to them. Fauchi has done the most to drive the point home. Biden and his team are also providing a demonstration of the interference the progressive programs can have in people's lives.

Will Independents swing more votes that bogus ballots? Will life-long Democrats wake up and smell the coffee?

We shall see.

This is the beatoff White Hut soyboy who admits the feint is solely to manipulate Manchin, who is having none of it, regardless of the smoke Bobo is trying to blow up his azz:

. Not only that but she has FLIPPED in a massive way. According to her, voter ID is now okay. It's the "hope Manchin flips on filibuster" spell working its magic here.

Don't bet on that.

They'll change their position in the blink of an eye when it suits their purpose and there will be no mockery for it. The press decides who gets mocked in the U.S. and they're just an arm of the democratic party.

Of course voter ID suppresses the (illegal) vote. And that’s the Dims are constantly squawking about.

If the Dems are flipping on Voter ID, it means they’ve figured out how to generate mass numbers of fake ID.

She’s busy at the all-you-can-eat buffet. When she gets back someone will tell her. Could be awhile.

Maybe they want a voter ID card tied to your digital vaccination ID card.
