Clinton/Kerry Bill for Felon Voting Rights Opposed by Americans
Jim Kouri

While Senators Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and John Kerry (D-MA)

attempt to

push a bill through the Senate that would restore voting rights for
felons -- including killers, rapists and child predators -- such a law

would

receive a cold reception by most Americans, according to a

just-released

poll.

Wow. Even killer felons, or rapist felons, or child predator
felons! What are Clinton and Kerry thinking?

They were thinking about the poll numbers which indicate most felons
would vote Democrat.

About half the prison population is black and blacks in general vote 85%
to 90% Democrat :o/ almost certainly higher rates among all groups
among felons because........ Democrats are softer on crime and more
liberal on drugs. Inmates also have luxuries like cable TV in prison
thanks to liberal appointed judges. HALF of prison population is on
psychiatric medication, thanks to liberal judges.

Any polling they've done i'm sure is cherry-unpicked by the mainstream
news media, but I'd guess about 80% to 90% of convicted felons would
vote democrat.

Notice that 85% to 90% of blacks vote democrat, but it's always white
Democrat voters the mainstream media shows on TV :o/

"Democrats are softer on crime..." you say. What does that mean,
exactly? Are you advocating stiffer sentencing?

Life in prison on three strikes. Geting back to the topic -
Clinton/Kerry,
Kerry/Clinton doesn't matter. They're unelectasble because their both
human
garbage.

Shouldn't you think for just one brief moment before you decide to make a
statement like this? Three strikes = life in prison. Where does this
analogy come from? Certainly not from America's pastime because in
baseball you get to bat again when it gets to be your turn. Have you any
idea of the injustices brought about by that three strikes nonsense?

For instance:
"One of the most egregious examples of injustice under the three-strikes
law is the case of Santos Reyes, who was sentenced to 26 years to life for
cheating on a driver’s license test. Reyes took the test for his
illiterate cousin. “I felt like I needed to help him because he was going
to work with me as a roofer, and he needed a California driver’s license
first,” he said."

Sell three joints to a narc - life in prison. Steal some food to feed
your starving family, and do that three times = life in prison.

Think about what you're advocating. This whole "tough on crime" nonsense
has nothing to do with minimizing crime, but fits right into the "control
by government" concept. I'm not here for the government, they're there
for me. Be careful what you wish for.
