Poor people shouldn't be allowed to vote - Scott Brown R-MA
« on: August 10, 2012, 02:12:40 pm »
Apparently the daughter of his challenger, Elizabeth Warren, is the chairwoman

of one of a few voting rights groups contracted by the state of Massachuetts to send voter registration forms to people who weren’t offered the chance to register when they applied to receive welfare benefits. That was a violation of federal law, and Massachusetts is sending these people registration forms as part of a legal settlement. And this makes Scott Brown really mad, because if you help welfare recipients vote, they’ll vote against Scott Brown, probably.

I want every legal vote to count, but it’s outrageous to use taxpayer dollars to register welfare recipients as part of a special effort to boost one political party over another. This effort to sign up welfare recipients is being aided by Elizabeth Warren’s daughter and it’s clearly designed to benefit her mother’s political campaign. It means that I’m going to have to work that much harder to get out my pro-jobs, pro-free enterprise message.

So I guess the republicans were right about there being voter fraud after all - poor people votes. The stupid is strong with this senator.

The sales tax that they pay goes to your paycheck, Mr. Brown.  Nice try.

Australian tories might be bad, but at least they aren't trying to stop me voting.

The party's name is the Democratic Party. It has been since 1830. Please spell correctly.

Are there any stats on which party welfare recipients are actually registered to out there? I'd like to have a percentage, or if possible the raw data and I'll build a fucking app around it for people to use while arguing.

The only real difference between the extravagant malevolence of the GOP and the extravagant malevolence of Umbrella is that the GOP hasn't tried to solve all their problems with the application of zombies. Yet.

You haven't seen their voter base, have you?

Oh, I guess their voter base counts. I mean, unyielding creatures that sometimes turn into horrific monsters that can go on rampages, created by an evil corporation or two.

So, at the end of the day, Umbrella and the GOP really are exactly the same.
