"Cut twice and then measure." Please come CAPTION Bill O'Reilly!!!

Bill (Wanker Extraordinaire) O'Reilly is saying: "North Carolina's new voter law is misguided in two ways. First they've opened themselves up to charges of racism and voter suppression. Secondly it should be drafted in a manner that gives greater weight to the votes by those who have made our country great and at the same time tighten restrictions to eliminate voter fraud. . . . After all, why should someone who just wants a free lunch have a vote that counts as much as someone who is building this country and paying his taxes? . . . It doesn't make sense. . . . If they follow my advice, they can pitch it as a Voter Enhancement Law, and nobody could possibly claim racism was involved in that! . . . Now its time for our fair-and-balanced debate: Why does Obama hate America so much?"

1. Maybe the votes of poor folks could be counted

as a fraction of a vote; say 3/5ths or some such.

[damyank913]

3. C'mon! Everybody knows that 3/5ths is too much...

...look at what happened last time . By the way, does anyone know how 3/5ths were originally arrived at?

6. "That would be voter suppression. Rather, I'd give the businessman vote or the entrepreneur's

one-and-two-fifths weight."

[krispos42]

2. "that gives greater weight to the votes by those who have made our country great"

Translation: rich white people.


Rich white people that suck at the government teat for billions of dollars annually.

But $30 a week in food stamps? Can't vote! So sorry, try again later.

4. "People say that Apartheid in South Africa didn't work. . . . I say,

they just didn't give it a chance!"

[Liberal In Texas]

5. I would imagine that the measure of "who is building this country"

will be the size of that persons bank account. Wonder if Billo is going to want the "high value voters" to have to disclose how much money they have in Swiss bank accounts and fake corporations on the Bahamas.
