In a commonsense decision, the Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of a case that decided that people registering to vote in federal election don't have to prove their citizenship. That means that people registering to vote won't be bullied into proving citizenship, which now seems to be an irrelevant criterion for voting.
“I am very pleased, obviously,” said Dolores Furtado, president of the Kansas chapter of the League of Women Voters. “It’s a good feeling because we’re truly trying to help” people get registered to vote.
Furtado said the league’s main interest is in increasing participation in the democratic process “rather than trying to make more hoops, more steps, to go through.”
I agree with Furtado. How fair is it when some of the people in America are allowed to vote and some are not? We should all be allowed to vote. The League of Women Voters is especially concerned about this, because many women in the U.S. from Mexico, Nicaragua, Syria, and Iraq don't currently enjoy the right to vote as American women do. But women are women; they all have the same body parts and according to the liberals the same political views, so why shouldn't all of them be allowed to vote?
But where is the League of Men Voters on this? Illegal aliens are sometimes men, too. Who is to speak for them?
And why isn't there yet a League of Transgendered Voters? Who will speak for the tens of people who have no voice?

It is hallmark of the lawless that things like Constitutions and oaths to same are never binding on the lawless. The subPreme court is the heart of American Lawlessness now, and leftist and democrats love it!
‘Cru havoc. Release the dogs of war!’
I have to assume it's satire otherwise...
Not satire. Not at all.
We are living in an idiocracy where up is down, down is up and common sense clarification (interpretation) of The Constitution is out the window
“Otherwise” it is. I’ve been trying to win hearts and minds over to the conservative cause, the cause of national survival, the cause of individual liberty and justice, for most of my life. I’m now resigned to the fact that they are not really worth saving. I’m done.
Ignore the edicts from DC. They are illegitimate.
It 2014 I kept saying I was done and would not vote. I said it 100 times. But I got caught up in the wave and wanted to be a part of it. A part of what I now ask. Many of the most faithful Christians I know don't vote and I'm just getting it.
