Yes to the Texas authorities standing up to this Obama led attack on states rights!
Moveon and its subversive agents have no business being within 10,000 feet of a polling place, let alone 100.
To think that anything from the UN could add any value to an election in the US is ridiculous. Opposition to voter ID laws is the bastion of the desparate, and the party of the criminals.
You, sir, are a Class A moron.
all of youze are a class A moron.
Look, this is an NGO to which the US has membership. it commonly "monitors" elections. yes, they should probably use the word observe rather than monitor because it's less threatening, but they use the word monitor. so what. Most intelligent people know that voter fraud isn't as bad a a problem as the ID people say it is, and that voter intimidation isn't a problem isn't as bad as a problem as the anti-ID people say it is. Of course, once in a while, in such a large and diverse society, such things happen, but overall it isn't a big deal. allowing some NGO types to observe and write a little report would put that whole thing to an end. It's a good thing to "monitor" elections. These folks don't have an agenda, other than writing reports. Of course, someone, somewhere, is going to spin this as "electioneering withing 100 feet of a polling stations." (many states have such anti-electioneering laws, by the way.) and, of course, the AG is intelligent enough to know this. He's a lawyer, after all. Remember that in Texas, the attorney general is an elected office (just as it is in many states). And there's one thing you can be sure of: any time an elected official does anything, he does it for one reason. That reason is to help himself get re=elected. So, now, there's some evidence of, and some memory of, the fact that the AG of Texas "stood up to foreign interests who want to meddle in the internal affairs of the USA." It's not a bad ploy. He beats his chest a little--and, by the way, the AG is an elected office in many states, so you'll probably see quite a bit of chest beating once it catches on--and it gives him another line on his resume. (I still say it would make for an interesting court case, especially because somewhere, some AG will be bold enough to push it if it means bolstering his re-election credentials.)
You and pretty much everyone else should stop taking all this so seriously.
