AN OPEN LETTER TO JOE MANCHIN AND KYRSTEN SINEMA

Joe and Kyrsten, I see you both, while you are Democrats, as the sane versions of Democrats. You both have remained firm in your conviction that the Senate must not become a cheap version of the House of Representatives. You have stood firm in your support of the filibuster, as a tool to ensure that legislation must be approved by a supermajority of your peers. This limitation prevents bad legislation from becoming law.

Your Democrat colleagues have tried every parliamentary trick to pass the 'voting rights' legislation. Both of you are intelligent enough to know that this legislation is not about 'voting rights'. This is clearly an unconstitutional and extremely dangerous power-grab, meant to codify election cheating in all fifty states.

If this bill passes, by whatever trick is employed, it will effectively end opposition to the Democrat party at the state and national level. While this may initially sound good to you, since you are Democrats, it will spell the end of America as a viable country born in freedom, instilled in fairness, and honest representation of all her citizens.

In the long term, single-party rule is very unhealthy for a country. I'm a Republican. I would NOT be happy if we Republicans had single-party rule. You Democrats keep us honest with your opposition to our extremes. PLEASE do not vote in a manner that would allow single-party rule, with Democrats being that ruling party. The lack of ability to oppose extremes will destroy the economies and social orders of the states you represent.

You are all that stands between an America with political balance, and an America that goes to absurd extremes, becoming a mockery of a country. Political balance is vital to keep a country from careening out of control. Please keep this in mind as you vote the next few days.

I spoke of the problems in the bill that would ensure single-party rule by the Democrats. I will list the most egregious elements of the bill:

1. The codification of mandatory acceptance of Mail-In Ballots will allow ballots into the electoral stream that no longer have the forensic protection that we presently have. Mail-in Ballots leave the stream of protection, which should be from the voter to the vote counter, directly. Once you allow ballots to leave that stream, all sorts of mischief can occur. Ballots from non-existent people can then enter that stream, for example.
2. Additionally, if Ballot-Harvesting is codified into law, this gives another horrific chance to introduce ballots from non-existent people. It also allows the discarding of legitimate ballots from people the Harvester thinks might vote 'incorrectly'.
3. This bill also codifies the forbidding of identification to vote. How hard is it to get an ID these days? How many services and benefits require IDs to prevent fraud? Almost all of them. The only purpose of this element of the bill is to enable fraudulent voting.

A quick review of the election laws of other countries shows that none of these laws are in place. They are aware that voting fraud is encouraged by Mail-In Ballots, Ballot Harvesting, and the lack of Identification. Not even Russia or China permits these laws! Are we to be less honest than those countries?

We can all point at points that are ‘the end of the republic,’ but this would be one of the most damaging events in American legislative history. This is akin to the German 'Enabling Act' that allowed the rise of the Nazis.

I implore you to think of the damage this bill would cause. I implore you to think of the horrid outcomes America would face, if either party can rule with little or no opposition.

Sincerely,

Laz A. Mataz.

“I don’t know how, but I would love to see this letter get into the hands of Joe Manchin and/or Kyrsten Sinema.”

Laz, they’ll see it. Good job.

P.J. O’Rourke said, “Giving money to Democrats is like giving whiskey and the car keys to a teenager.”

[Nifster]

Excellent

Hope they stand strong

How does Russia or China keep winning elections? What is their cheating modus operandi without voter ID, mail in ballots, and ballot harvesting?

They have corrupted counting centers. That's different than what the Dems propose....but that's how China/Russia/North Korea did it.

P.J. O’Rourke SHOULD HAVE said, “Giving TAX DOLLARS to Democrats is like giving whiskey and the car keys to a teenager.”

Brandons's revels are now ended. His Woke Staff and Generals, as I foretold you, have failed on an massive scale, melting their credibility into air, into thin air. And like the baseless fabric of their gangsters-in-charge vision: the capping of oil drills and fracking, the extortion of foreign palaces, the solemnly muzzled press corp, the vax mandates, the crushing weight of inflation, the global debacle in Afghanistan, ye all of which this regime hath wrought, shall dissolve. And like this insubstantial pageant faded, leave not a ballot harvesting dropbox behind. Brandon's but a walking shadow, a poor player, who struts and frets his hour on the Delaware "White House" stage, but soon enough will be heard from no more. It is the tale of an fraudulently elected con-artist and idiot, full of sound and fury who says nothing, but who steadily tries to destroy all that's dear to the hardworking and freedom-loving people of America. Apologies to Shakespeare.

Filibuster balances “tyranny of the majority” vs “tyranny of the minority”: a minority who have enough reason to stop a majority from making a particularly bad decision have a means to stall, draw attention, and explain further why the majority is doing wrong.

Anti-filibuster is anti-minority.
Without filibuster, a bare majority of bigots, ignorants, or partisans can overrun a minority who will be meaningfully harmed by the legislation.
With filibuster, a minority can halt pending meaningful harm, requiring a supermajority to agree that the objections are undue.
Democrats are quick to oppress minorities.

Great job, PP! Your vision leaves us longing
for the high tides to wash over this nation,
cleansing us all of the evil
within. Reminiscent of the gif Conservative Tree
House uses frequently. Yours, with more hidden
strength. (also, reminds of “River Dance” and our Irish heritage.)

As to the phony pipsqueak: no comment = no
waste of time.

If there was ONE PERSON OF COLOR in the United States denied the right to vote.

ONE PERSON...

That person - that citizen - would be on the front page of the New York Times and Washington Post above the fold...

TOMORROW.

AND FOR A MONTH AFTER THAT...

(And both papers would win Pulitzers for finding the person...>

Good to see you again Laz!

Why do Dems need “new and improved” voting?

Joe Biden won w/ 81 million votes.

Didn’t he?

See tagline...

I've met him in real life, I can attest to that...

[generally]

The goal of the D party (and Deep State) *IS* the total destruction of America.

That’s not a secret to anyone who’s been paying attention. Most Ds (but maybe not Manchin) and many Rs are on board with that goal. Some knowingly. Others unwittingly because the short term $ in their pockets makes them blind to the long term consequences. Still others are controlled via blackmail and/or threats.
