In what counts as a profile in courage these days, a Republican governor has vetoed large parts of a package of measures that would have made it harder for minorities and the poor to vote.
Michigan governor Rick Snyder said he won't sign a bill drawn up by GOP lawmakers which would have required a photo I.D. for first-time registration, or to get an absentee ballot. Snyder said he “appreciates the issue of ensuring voters are eligible and U.S. citizens, however this legislation could create voter confusion among absentee voters.”
are the brave turning on the worms in the republican can? this is hopefully what we've been praying for, sense and sensibility within the right wing ranks of decision makers.  wonder if Rove and the rest of the AINO's slept good last night?
is there a fair and honest election in our near future? is there hope and change looming over the next 4 yrs.? it's our's if we really want it. if their own can buck the illegal laws the rest are forcing on the people shoving it down our throats as they liked to say about any legal law passed by the Pres., like i said they are guilty of it and blame our beloved Pres. for their dirt.
