Record turnout shows voter integrity laws don't hurt

 Red States:

On the first day of voting, Georgia saw voters arrive in record numbers, disproving the numerous lies spun about voter reform.

It was all said to be the worst thing possible for voting rights in the state of Georgia. After he was “wrongfully” elected, Governor Brian Kemp joined in with other states in pushing, then passing, a voter integrity law that would address many of the policies trotted out due to the pandemic, as well as expanding numerous ways early voting could take place. The furor, as we all saw, was loud and persistent.

Many in the press joined in by bellowing about the disenfranchisement of voters, particularly minorities. This spread out to Democrats in general, all the way up to President Biden. With many invoking the term “Jim Crow” to describe the supposedly racist aspects, Biden decided to ramp up the hysterics, declaring the law to be “Jim Eagle.” One detail lost in the outrage: The people actually favored the law. 

Then there was Stacey Abrams, the Democrat poster-gal for election impropriety, squealing about the law loudly. She complained bitterly that the law was illegal, racist, and all other accusations. Her outrage was so justified that she went to court to block its enforcement – only to be met with a judge striking her suit down.

Now comes the news that on the first day of early voting in Georgia, they have set a record for a midterm election turnout. On Day 2, Tuesday, they actually exceeded the turnout on the second day of voting in the 2020 general election. This is not an anomaly either, as the state also saw record numbers in the primary that was run this summer. So all of the protracted yelping and claims of racial intolerance have been exposed as being what we knew from the start – a complete lie.

...

Democrats and other leftists have slandered voter integrity laws and been proven wrong about the turnout.  Good for Georgia for not backing down on voter integrity.   They showed you can have a fair election without vote fraud.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
