Those willing to risk their lives in the armed forces are horoes and would be excellent voters in the future. No worries. That should pardon quite a few crimes, IMHO.

Now they are supposed to come in when we have a shortage of Rat Voters.
I truly despise this communist pofs like no other.

Sigh. Read post 50.

I don’t think will get any support outside his base on this issue.
And his support is shrinking. Yesterdays news coverage of the new Arizona law was as expected, Several minutes of coverage showing rowdy opponents screaming “racism!”, commentators telling us racial profiling would run rabid - and barely a second showing the quiet supporters.
I imagine you are correct. But I respect our armed forces more than most of our laws. FRegards ....
