“…spent months in every state legislative capital trying to keep black people and poor people from voting or young people.”
No Chris, what the GOP was doing was trying to prevent incidents like this one that happened in Virginia during the last Presidential election. I live in Alexandria and early voted in the last Presidential election. I then went to the polls and was given a chance to vote again until I politely told the poll worker that I had already voted.
So no Tingles, the GOP is simply trying to make the voting system fair – one person, one vote.
After all, why should a country founded on the rule of law care about the law (It’s why the USA is a Republic, not a Democracy)? Because our elected politicians in Washington refuse to do anything of substance about closing the border, see what the country will look like when our kids are of adult age in this video. It will blow your mind.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: People that believe in border protection, who believe you can stop somebody from coming into this country by higher towers, or more drones, or more people working there, I think are right-wingers or idiots. If you want to work and you’re looking for a job, you’re going to come to America, Congresswoman. You’re going to come in here and you’re going to find a way in, whether you have to take a boat, an airplane, or swim. Whatever you have to do, you’re going to get here.
And my question is, are we going to have a work permit situation that’s truly enforced so they’ll be no incentive to do that? Because you can’t work in the United States unless you’re here legally. If we ever have a system like that, we won’t be having this debate in 20 or 30 years from now all over again. (Hardball, January 28, 2013)
Fact is, if you come across the border illegally, you have committed a crime.
This was very enjoyable to watch. The topics covered everything from the GOP primaries to Romney’s vice presidential search to last but not least Gingrich’s love of animals and zoos.
Via the Daily Calller, here’s what Chris Matthews said on last night’s Hardball.
Chris says in the video:
“They live into their 80s and 90s. They’re still getting checks. The system doesn’t work that way anymore. It’s not as healthy as it once was. So, how does a Republican deal with the fact it is a Ponzi scheme in the sense that the money that’s paid out every day is coming from people who have paid in that day. It’s not being made somewhere.”

“Wait, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Governor, let me ask you this question: Look, the President was joking a few months ago. You know, I generally support everything the guy does. I like his temperament. I like everything about him, except this thing of jobs, this thing of not doing what needs to be done. He was laughing at some event recently, or a while back, about how there weren’t as many shovel-ready jobs as he thought there were. That reminded me of Dubya, who was out to lunch on the war in Iraq, saying he couldn’t find the WMD and thinking that’s funny. It’s not funny when the President says he can’t find work out there when everybody can see there’s work to be done!”
