Cornyn Blasts Holder's "Shameful" Failure to Protect Military Votes
The Washington Times ^ | 9/16/2010 | Water Cooler blog

Posted on 09/16/2010 4:52:45 PM PDT by MadisonReagan

Dear Attorney General Holder:

I write again to express frustration over the failure of the Department of Justice (DoJ) to demonstrate its full enforcement of federal laws that protect the civil rights of our military service members and their families....The disenfranchisement of military voters must come to an end. If it is allowed to continue, it will represent a shameful failure to honor the heroic service of those who defend America.

Sincerely,

JOHN CORNYN United States Senator

Not only is Cornyn blasting away at Holder for failure to protect military voting, but so is columnist Deroy Murdock. See here: http://spectator.org/blog/2010/09/16/cornyn-calls-holder-shameful-r If this isn't scandalous behavior by DoJ, I don't know what is....

This is what Cornyn should be doing. For a change.

Cornyn is on the edge of oblivion. I think he is an honorable man but if these old bushites dont start getting with cutting the size of government and getting these illegal aliens out of here with rigid employer sanctions and shutting down our border they are going to say political bye bye. The University and Texas Tech political science departments collaborated on a study of citizens concerns in Texas. The NUMBER 1 issue is the illegals crossing our borders!!! I apologize for no site on that but I assure you it is bigger than the the economy!!! in Texas. and our beloved Senator better get with it. Our damned governor is already also just about gone because we are staying home on that sob.

Agreed. Cornyn is the lesser of two evils during election time but that’s as far as his stand and fight for what’s right goes.

Well he is not running. But I’m saying he better clean it up. Texans are liquored up and pissed off.

I'm sure he is, that's not the problem. I don't "follow" him really, and I have real mixed opinions of him. But recently he has really NOT helped the Conservative cause. Maybe he'll straighten up and fly right. I hope so.

There is a political term for this.

It's called MISDIRECTION. And it is being used right now to get the heat off of him and the NRSC.

Holder must be running as a Tea Party conservative against an establishment RINO in a Republican primary somewhere.

There is no honor among thieves and he is right in the middle of a whole bunch of them.

Cornyn = CYA Mode.

Total BS. He had no idea this was going on until the Republican primaries turned into TEA Parties.

I don’t want to sound as if I advocate bringing back the guillotine, but the way people like him suddenly get religion is beyond insulting. And should be treated as such.

Reelect these bastards and they will turn on us like day to night. They worship their power over us (the Great Unwashed) and serve no other God.

If John Cornyn is a RINO, then the term RINO has absolutely no meaning.

Holder’s party doesn’t like military votes. They’ve demonstrated this a number of times.
