Treating Blacks Like Children
Topics: Political News and commentariesLa Shawn Barber has the right idea about voter IDs. It's high time liberals stop viewing African-Americans as
perpetual children, incapable of controlling their impulses or
attaining more sophisticated levels of conduct. I'm all for one person, one ID, one vote - but the lefties seem to prefer one person, no ID, many votes ... just so they're all for Democrats. Heck, if we are going to cheat, we ought to at least split up the fraudulant votes just to be fair!
La Shawn Barber tells off liberal black politicians who oppose reasonable voter ID requirements:
Requiring photo indentification to vote is a small but important step toward securing our homeland. While fake IDs are readily available, the more we require this means of indentification, the harder it is (in theory) to produce a convincing phony one, in my opinion. Photo IDs will also help reduce voter fraud, which is a good thing, right?
A bunch of black politicians in Georgia don't think so. They staged a walkout because the governor wants voters to show identification before they vote. No, that's not a typo. They walked out of the Capitol in protest because people who want to vote in Georgia will have to show valid, government-issued ID...
...This is an example of what I mean when I say politicians treat blacks like children. Black so-called leaders and politicians disingenuously conjure up images of Jim Crow when they can't get they're way, without even realizing they're playing to the negative stereotypes that plagued blacks for generations, hurting the "poor, black and elderly" they claim to care so much about.
"Poor, black and elderly" citizens don't know how to go down to city hall or the DMV to get an identification card? First of all, why don't they already have picture identification? Don't they drive or hold jobs? How do they cash checks, both welfare and earned, and open accounts, without proof that they're who they purport to be? Ridiculous.
As Michelle Malkin says, "Preach On, La Shawn."
