GOP disdain for the unemployed
"Those Lazy Jobless" NYTimes
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/22/op...less.html?_r=0 "Last week John Boehner, the speaker of the House, explained to an audience at the American Enterprise Institute what’s holding back employment in America: laziness. People, he said, have “this idea” that “I really don’t have to work. I don’t really want to do this. I think I’d rather just sit around.” Holy 47 percent, Batman!" "It’s hardly the first time a prominent conservative has said something along these lines. Ever since a financial crisis plunged us into recession it has been a nonstop refrain on the right that the unemployed aren’t trying hard enough, that they are taking it easy thanks to generous unemployment benefits, which are constantly characterized as “paying people not to work.” And the urge to blame the victims of a depressed economy has proved impervious to logic and evidence." "But it’s still amazing — and revealing — to hear this line being repeated now. For the blame-the-victim crowd has gotten everything it wanted: Benefits, especially for the long-term unemployed, have been slashed or eliminated. So now we have rants against the bums on welfare when they aren’t bums — they never were — and there’s no welfare. Why?"...

If you read about the ID issue it is not the issue of the card itself but the roadblocks put in the way of actually obtaining an id. Just like Wisconsin is trying to do. Pete...voter fraud does not take place by one person voting multiple times....that is a very inefficient way. It is only effective when wholesale ballot stuffing or ballot box stealing is utilized. The GOP is not targeting that form of corruption. They are trying to stop black and Latino voters by either making IDs too hard to get or polling stations to difficult to find. I hate to say it Pete but your friends can barely hold onto the Senate in off-year election of a second-term Democratic President.

So skin color determines how hard it is to get an ID? Good thing that judge could read minds.
Hello Senate  Pete
