The left exposed as racist on Voter ID

 Red States:

...

As you can see in the video below, Crowder went to Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, Texas to conduct a Change My Mind on whether or not Voter ID laws were racist. Crowder’s position is that they aren’t, the left’s position is that they are, and as usual, Crowder offered the left to try to change his mind. A woman sat down and the two engaged in conversation.

It soon became semi-heated when Crowder explained that statistically, leftist white women are the few people who actually think voter ID laws are racist because black people have difficulty obtaining IDs. Crowder explained that the black community, by and large, finds this point of view racist, because it’s the left effectively saying black people are less capable of doing things than white people.

The woman immediately denied that black people thought this was a racist concept and took offense to the fact that Crowder had singled out white leftist women as the group who thinks this. Crowder, however, had the numbers and the girl attempted to mount a defense…one that didn’t quite work too well.

“Why do you think 73 percent think you’re so wrong and yet your point of view is racist?” asked Crowder.

“They don’t think my point of view-” she tried to say.

“They think it’s racist,” Crowder said again. “They think it’s racist to assume they can’t get ID at the same rates as white people.”

The girl floundered for a moment then quickly stopped, saying she’s not going to get into it.

In the end, the girl said that she had no idea that people could apply online for an ID and that knowing that is valuable, and one can’t help but wonder why that isn’t common knowledge. To be fair, many of us don’t have to wonder why.

Just so we’re not throwing around numbers arbitrarily, Crowder’s site lined up the stats for you to see for yourself:

  • Majorities of whites (74%), blacks (73%), and other minorities (82%) say voters should be required to show photo identification before being allowed to vote. SOURCE: Rasmussen

  • 87% of black people have some form of confirmed photo ID. SOURCE: ProjectVote (pg. 3)

  • 90% of Latin Americans have a form of confirmed photo ID. SOURCE: ProjectVote (pg. 3)

  • Percentage of Americans who have ID vs. percentage who vote. SOURCE: CNN

    • 87% of black people have ID, only 13% voted in the 2020 Election.
    • 90% of Latin Americans have ID, only 13% voted in the 2020 Elections.
    • 95% of white people have ID, only 67% voted in 2020 Elections.

  • 97% of registered voters in Georgia have a valid ID. SOURCE: AJC

  • Voter ID laws have been shown to actually INCREASE turnout in states that recommend them, such as Georgia and Indiana. SOURCES: Heritage, Heritage

    • Specifically in Georgia from 2004 to 2008, turnout increased

      • 140% among Hispanic/Latino voters

      • 42% among Black voters

      • Compared to 8% of Whites

...

This confirms what I have been saying all along about the racism of those who think blacks are incapable of getting an ID.  It is absurdly racist on its face.  The real reason Democrats oppose voter ID is that it makes it harder for them to cheat.  It makes it harder to stuff the ballot boxes.

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
