United Nations To The Rescue

United Nations To The Rescue

And none too soon, I might add. The 2012 American national elections are coming on fast, and the racist oppressors in fourteen Jim Crow states have laws aimed at keeping minorities [blacks], the elderly, the mentally-deficient, convicted felons, and non-citizens from voting. Foot-dragging by secret racists in the administration and at the state level is allowing solid, salt-of-the earth people to be denied their right to vote, no matter what their status.

The nefarious plan to squelch minority voting revolves largely around requiring potential voters to show a valid photo ID (state or federally issued) before going into the voting booth. Now obviously, that's much like slavery, or the Holocaust. You can read all about it in our November discussion of the matter: Voter ID Laws. Since the Obama administration and the courts aren't moving fast enough to prevent this shredding of the Constitution and mass disfranchisement, the NAACP this week took the matter to the United Nations.

Now we all know that the United Nations is the one organization in the world that can deal with the mass extinction of whole races and ethnic groups, not to mention religious minorities. Only an organization as unprejudiced, upright, learned, benevolent and honest as the UN Human Rights Commission can force America into abandoning its racist ways.

Remember that requiring a voter to prove he is who he says he is is nothing short of racial oppression. After all, to get such an ID, the applicant must pick up a phone or mail a letter and fill out a short application. Don't be fooled by all those provisions for free ID or assistance in obtaining the ID that would allow a catatonic quadriplegic to obtain such an ID at no cost. That's just more propaganda to cover up the racist intent of the voter ID laws.

The NAACP (the racial minority wing of the Democratic Party) declares that voter ID laws are part of a concerted effort to drive down minority turnout. They intend to conduct demonstrations against the vile Jim Crow laws nationwide, starting in Washington DC on December 10th. The NAACP has become the master of agitprop since becoming irrelevant after the success of the Civil Rights Movement in the 60s. And though the demonstrations are designed to coerce guilt-ridden white people and Republicans to toss out their inherent racism, why settle for a national forum when you can have an international forum?

So the NAACP has gone to the United Nations to correct America's human rights abuses. As soon as the UN figures out what to do with Israel (the other major racist nation), and what to do about its own failures to maintain peace in Africa and the Middle East, and clear up those allegations of mass murders and rapes being committed by UN troops, I'm sure it will immediately turn to the depredations of the Great Satan United States.

Now you may say to yourself, "what can the United Nations do about American voting laws?" Well, here's one thought. Barack Obama, he of half-black origin with a typical white grandmother, loves executive orders and playing at being Commander-in-Chief. As soon as the United Nations passes a resolution condemning white racism and demanding a change in American voting laws, this future candidate for Secretary-General of the United Nations could simply order the armed forces to invade the capitals of each of the offending states and conduct the voting on behalf of the oppressed minorities, the United Nations (and incidentally, the United States). No reason to be concerned with that pesky Constitution if it gets in the way of UN do-gooding.

Don't take my word on this. Just ask the leaders of the New Black Panthers Party in Philadelphia. Even a group as small as theirs was able to prevent white voter suppression in a major American city. Imagine what could be done with an entire battalion.

Voter ID Is A Racist Conspiracy

Voter ID Is A Racist Conspiracy

Or so says the NAACP. Chairman Benjamin Todd Jealous was joined by civil rights hysteric Rev. Al Sharpton and ethics-challenged Rep. Charles Rangel to denounce the current wave of voter suppression laws. In case you don't know, simple, inexpensive and readily-available official ID required for voting purposes is "voter suppression."

In reality, the only voting that gets suppressed by requiring valid identification is fraudulent or illegal voting. But since Democrats count on those votes, they are outraged. The race card is always a good way of attacking reasonable and unburdensome law. The same party that required rigged voting tests to suppress black voting in the South now wants no requirements to vote.

Using class warfare and race warfare as his stalking-horses, Jealous appeared on the steps of New York City Hall to announce: "The rallies are intended to get this conversation out of the thought leader class and down to the street corners, so folks understand that their rights are being attacked. This is the greatest assault on voting rights, happening right now, that we have seen since the dawn of Jim Crow."

The sanctity of the ballot box has been eroded badly over the past few decades. Patriots gave their lives to get the vote, but today it's too much effort to get out of bed, go to a polling place, show your valid ID, and mark a ballot. Absentee ballots for unusual circumstances have been replaced with mail-in ballots for the lazy. Early voting takes place with weeks to go before the election, disregarding the fact that a lot can happen during those weeks. Physical presence at the polls is made to sound archaic. Oregon has already experimented with voting by I-Pad.

Voting is not something that ought to be made as easy as buying a new shirt on Amazon.com. The franchise was a right for which people fought hard, risked much, and treaured greatly. Now, it's devolving into something that you grudgingly work into your busy schedule, if you can. Or it's something annoying that interferes in your life, like having to stop at a red light. Registering to vote is an imposition on one's life, requiring that a form actually be filled out with some information. It could take as long as five or even six minutes. What a burden!

Those who are of the least value to society, the lazy and shiftless, don't want to be further burdened by having to prove they are who they say they are in order to vote. The same people who can fill out reams of paperwork to get those beautiful, easy-to-use EBT free-food-from-the-government cards are somehow being oppressed by having to do a great deal less to get a valid state-issued identification card.

But that's not what the NAACP thinks. Going after the national movement to require valid identification already in place in Kansas, Tennessee and Wisconsin, and about to go into operation in Texas and South Carolina, Jealous says the requirements are draconian and oppressive. On the day that Mississippi amended its constitution to require valid photo voter ID, he charged that blacks, Hispanics, senior citizens, people with disabilities, and the poor are less likely to have the required photo IDs. He also argues that others would be disfranchised like students with school IDs, those who don't carry ID on their persons, and (get this) women who have ID that doesn't reflect their married names.

What a load of horse manure. Anybody too lazy or mentally-deficient to do the simple, inexpensive task of getting a valid state-issued photo ID shouldn't be voting anyway. How many legal Social Security recipients didn't have to prove who they were by validating their identity? How many adults (i.e., voters) don't have either a driver's license or an easily-obtained state ID? Most states will issue the IDs for free if the registrant is in dire financial straits, and many will even provide public transportation or home visits by state officials to assist in obtaining the ID.

But the Democrats and the NAACP prefer the "vote early, vote often, vote fraudulently, vote illegally" path. Requiring people to show up at the polls with a valid ID and eliminating all other forms of voting except for absentee ballots issued carefully under very special circumstances should be the norm. But it isn't, and won't be. In fact, voting is made far too easy for those who have no stake in America's success, along with illegal immigrants, and in Chicago, dead people. On the other hand, soldiers risking their lives on foreign battlefields have their absentee votes disqualified on ridiculous technical grounds.

Jealous, Sharpton and Rangel all demand that the Attorney General investigate the constitutionality of voter ID laws and take action against the states which have them. This would be the same Attorney General who dismissed voter intimidation convictions against the New Black Panther Party in Philadelphia--cases which had already been won. In the House of Representatives, a group including the Black Caucus sent a request to all fifty state secretaries of state to oppose voter identification laws.

Joining the gang of three at the news conference were the United Federation of Teachers, the Health Care Workers Union, the National Council of La Raza and the Asian-American Legal Defense. Aside from the statements, the group has called for a national day of protest against the voter ID laws for December 10. I don't think I'll be joining them.
