The one thing that totalitarian dictators hate most is any opposition to their iron-fisted decrees. The Democrats who run the nearly evenly divided Congress, in league with Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden, and his Administration’s Commie Cabal, currently are up in arms over Georgia’s amendment of its election laws. The Dems hate the Georgia law because it conflicts with their proposed H.R. 1 legislation, which is intended to unconstitutionally repeal Article I, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution, which provides that the various State legislatures shall decide the manner in which they hold elections. H.R. 1 would illegally repeal any State law that is in conflict with its attempt to do away with any semblance of ballot security, thus permitting unregistered voters, unqualified voters, convicted voters, and non-citizen voters to decide which Democrat candidate they prefer. H.R. 1 strikes down all voter I.D. laws, so that’s why the Georgia law, which dares to require a vote-by-mail voter to actually prove he or she is at least 18, is a U.S. and Georgia citizen, and is registered, has caused such a stir. The Georgia amendments come in the wake of elections which were tainted by the specter of massive fraud. Democrats responded to the valid act of the Georgia Legislature in the same way they respond to everything they don’t like, they lied about it. Believe it or not, the 2021 amendments do not impose a new requirement of voter I.D. in Georgia. Georgia has required voter I.D. for in- person voting for years. After the enactment of this I.D. requirement, the number of African-American voters increased. In fact, in 2008 and 2012, the percentage of eligible black voters who voted actually was higher than the percentage of eligible white voters who cast votes. That percentage decreased in 2016, not due to white supremacy or voter suppression, as claimed by Stacy Abrams, but simply because Il Duce Barack Obama was not on the ballot. Contrary to Democrat opinion, black voters are neither ignorant nor shy. They know how to come out and vote when they see a candidate they like. The new Georgia law simply extended the existing voter I.D. requirement to mail ballots, and that’s the problem for Democrats. They don’t want voters to have to come out to vote or request a ballot. They’d prefer to print tens of thousands of spurious mail ballots, to be counted as needed, once the in-person vote is disclosed. They agree with something a Jersey City Democrat once told me, “Our voters vote, whether they come out or not.” So Biden and Co. continue to lie about the Georgia law. Don’t take my word for it. That’s the verdict of The Washington Post, which gave Biden “Four Pinnochios” for his lies about the law. The Post concluded that the law did make some changes to early voting, but that the net effect was to expand the opportunities to vote for most Georgians, not limit them. Shocking, huh? Biden calls the law “sick” and “un-American,” claiming it “ends voting hours early.” That’s a lie. The law did not reduce voting hours, and early voting was expanded, not restricted. Biden’s claim that Georgia banned food and water near polling places is also a lie. The law actually works to reduce voting lines, to prevent voters from having to stand in line for hours. And it permits election workers, but not candidates, to provide food and water. But since journalism is dead, Biden’s lies were effective, again proving Mark Twain’s observation that, “A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.” Biden appeared at the NCAA championship game in Indiana, where he called Georgia’s law “Jim Crow 2.0,” while praising Indiana, which I guess he forgot was the first State to require photo ID for voters. No matter. When lying Stacy Abrams cried “racism,” cowardly Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines, and other castrated corporations demanded Georgia boycotts. Major League Baseball folded immediately, and moved the All-Star Game from heavily black Atlanta to 91% white Denver. The fact that Georgia’s new law guarantees more early voting than does Colorado’s didn’t matter. It’s “Jim Crow 2.0,” so sayeth imbecile Joe. The result? Minority workers and businesses in Atlanta will lose hundreds of millions of dollars, and Atlanta will not be permitted to honor Hank Aaron, as it intended. Imbecile Joe should know all about Jim Crow 2.0, because it was his Party that enacted the so-called “Jim Crow” laws after the Civil War; laws intended to separate the races, to disenfranchise black people, and even to strip them of State citizenship. Progressive Republicans tried to reduce Jim Crow 1.0 segregation, but racist Democrat Woodrow Wilson reimposed segregation in the federal bureaucracy, writing that Reconstruction placed southern white men under “the intolerable burden of governments sustained by the votes of ignorant negroes.” When civil rights activists W.E.B. Du Bois and William Monroe Trotter objected, Wilson threw them out of the Oval Office in 1914, telling them, “Segregation is not humiliating, but a benefit, and ought to be so regarded by you gentlemen.” Too long ago to blame today’s Democrats? Not so fast. Members of Biden’s Party tried to defy the 1957 Civil Rights Act, causing Republican Dwight Eisenhower to send 1,000 101st Airborne Division troops to Arkansas to force Arkansas Democrats to let black children attend white schools. Biden has called the filibuster, “a remnant of Jim Crow.” But it was Biden’s Democrat buddies who used the filibuster to try to stop the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. As Wall Street Journal columnist Jason Riley writes in his column, Upward Mobility, “By constantly invoking the ghost of Jim Crow, Democrats treat black voters like they were helpless children.” I hate to dwell on the truth in this day and age, but the inconvenient truth is that some 77% of voters, Republican and Democrat alike, are in favor of voter identification requirements, which makes you wonder why the only people who oppose such requirements are elected Democrats, and the far-Left, Woke, Whacko groups who are permitted to run amok by elected Democrats. Jim Crow lies are bad enough, but what should really make you uncomfortable is that Democrats have endorsed the position of Josef Stalin, who said of voting, “The people who cast the votes don’t decide an election, the people who count the votes do.” We found out he was right last November.
