The RINO House leadership and RNC Chair are siding with leftists who oppose voter ID laws which leaves the door open to voter fraud.

Sensenbrenner, Cantor, Boehner and Priebus have to be replaced with conservative Republicans who don't support Obama/Holder leftist policies.

More evidence that there isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between the parties.

Dang, I did not know I was so dumb.

Those congressmen have to ‘educate’ me on these complex issues.

Yesterday it was McCain calling me stupid.

We cannot forget that the RNC signed off on this gem. Something is very wrong.

The Republican division of the Democrat Party is working hard to make the position of the Democrat Party as the permanent Ruling Party unassailable. The Amnesty front is the most important move because that all by itself renders the Democrats untouchable but all other progressive gambits will be supported and promoted.

Just waltz down to your local elections board and re register as a democrat, and notify your local leaders what you did...maybe then they will get the message. I intend to do just that. At least the commie party has issues they stand behind.

There is no difference because there is no between. There is a certain hierarchy but there is no horizontal dseparation.

That act constituted the actual friendly takeover of the Republican Party and merger with the Democrat Party as a wholly owned and controlled division.

In my view you’re correct and they’ve made headway. I’ve little doubt Boehner will end up supporting the Senate amnesty bill in some form.

Sensenbrenner is senile, and I say that as a resident of his district of more than 25 years. After re-districting, I now have Petri who is even worse.

To: jazusamo; All

I hope patriots are aware that the only reason that the federal government has the power to make laws to protect certain voting rights is because the states amended the Constitution to grant Congress such powers.

The voting rights amendments are the 15th, 19th, 24th and 26th Amendments. These amendments expressly grant Congress the power to make laws to protect voting rights on the basis of race, sex, tax issues and minimum voting age respectively. Any federal voting laws or regulations not reasonably based on these criteria are unconstitutional imo.

For example, the states have never amended the Constitution to protect voters by not requiring voters to show a valid photo ID in order to vote. So a federal law that prohibits the states from requiring voters to present such an ID in order to vote is unconstitutional imo.

If voters want such a constitutional protection then they can work with their local, state and federal lawmakers to amend the Constitution to make not having to show an ID in order to vote a right.

Good info...That sounds like it’s the reason Obama’s lapdog Holder is going after voter ID laws in states using the excuse voter ID discriminates against minorities which is a completely bogus argument.

Since biased, out-dated legislation is suddenly all the rage, why not bring back the Fugitive Slave Act?

If I’m not mistaken, Boehner’s term as Speaker of the House terminates after the off-year election. That will be 2014. NOW’S the time to start electing CONSERVATIVE Republicans to the House of Reps.

You’ve summed it up succinctly.

How can you reinstate what the Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional? I am not saying the Court is always right, but until they reverse a decision it remains the law of the land.
