Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

The Department of Imitation Is The Sincerest Form Of Flattery, with an assist from the SpatulaGoddess, sponsors today’s “Putting The Cart Before&#160 The Horse” award.

Remember, Denizens, how 11 Texas Demoscum excuses-for-senators tried to block redistricting a couple years back?

Well, now some Jawja Dem’scum – really, that’s how it’s spelled; sound it out (grin)* – sorta tried the same thing yesterday.&#160 Only they…uh, how do I say this…got it a little ass-backwards.

The state Senate’s Democratic caucus, led by the chamber’s black members, walked out of the Legislature Friday after an emotional vote on voting rights.

Immediately after a 7 p.m. vote that would eliminate 12 of the 17 forms of identification that may be used at Georgia polls, a majority of Senate Democrats, including all black members, left the chamber.

Memo to the Jawja Dem’scum:&#160 If you wanna block a bill, you generally walk out before&#160 the vote, eh?

“This is wrong!” Sen. Vincent Fort, D-Atlanta, shouted before the exit. “We will not go back.”

“We will not&#160 go back to the days when we could only vote once!!!&#160 We will not&#160 go back to the days when elections were fair, honorable and credible!!!&#160 We will NOT&#160 go back to the days when there was no corruption, for we are Democrats!!!!!

All but one other member of the Democratic caucus left shortly afterward. Most Democrats returned to the chamber about 25 minutes later.

After they realized just what a calamitous blunder they’d made. (snicker)

“We wanted to at least show them we support them,” said Sen. Michael Meyer Von Bremen, D-Albany.

…he said, in his best Tom D’asshole voice.

Republican sponsors of the bill said it was an effort to cut down on voter fraud.

“My intention was to make sure in Georgia that next election, or down the road, we don’t end up with all the lawsuits or all the voter irregularities we’ve heard about,” said Sen. Cecil Staton, R-Macon, the bill’s sponsor.

Oh, Senator, I think you’ve pretty much guaranteed that there’ll be a mess o’ lawsuits, alright.&#160 You seriously don’t think the Demoscum are going to take this without their obligatory temper-tantrum, do you?

The bill, which passed 32-22 along party lines, would require a photo ID to vote.

It would remove other forms of ID, including a Social Security card, birth certificate or student identification, from the list.

That’s it???&#160&#160 How hard could it be to go have your picture taken???

Democratic critics compared the effort to the poll taxes, literacy tests and other laws aimed at suppressing black votes during segregation. They said poor and minority voters are more likely to be without photo ID than other voters.

Because, as we all&#160 know, blacks just can’t stand&#160 having their picture taken…right?&#160

“What’s happening today is just an updated form of Jim Crow,” said Fort, referring to segregation-era laws that suppressed black voting. “You may be more polite about it … but we know who’s going to be disenfranchised.”

Yeah.&#160 Those who like to vote seven or eight times, in seven or eight different precincts each.

Oh, and Uglo-Americans.&#160 Can’t forget about the Uglo-Americans.&#160 (chuckle)

In an emotional speech, Sen. Kasim Reed, D-Atlanta, shouted that senators were “stabbing race relations in the heart” by pushing the plan.

Really, Senator Dumbfuck, don’t go all Cynthia McKinney on us here, okay?&#160 According to the very next paragraph in the article,

Staton said the bill allows anyone, even non-drivers, to apply for a state ID card from Georgia’s motor vehicles department. He said people who can’t afford one may request one for free.

So there’s really no excuse to not do this, okay?&#160 You wanna vote bad enough, go get a snappy taken of you.&#160 Quit bitching as if blacks are going to be the only ones affected by this.&#160 Stop looking for racism under every fucking rock, okay?!?!?!

Sheesh.

*Acidman, I’m just kidding.&#160 Really.
