The new GOP word is out - "Voters Must Take the Responsibility"

[troublemaker]

This is talking points from the top, because Jeb Bush, John Kasich and Gorge Will all used the same phrase in the space of about twenty minutes on one TV show to answer any questions about potential election fraud, minority under-counting, felons lists, illegal destruction of registrations...

"Voters have to take responsibility for their own votes..."

Yes, all problems are answerable by simply blaming the voters themselves.

1. "Voters have to take responsibility for their own votes..."

WTF? After you vote it's pretty much out of your hands. How the hell are you supposed to be responsible for your vote? When paper ballots end up in the trash it's not your fault unless you put them there.

2. oh yes, it's obvious, as usual. n/t

4. That's code for "carry your guns and scare the hell out of brown people"

[mmonk]

5. Yes we do and

we will protect it no matter what they do.

[highplainsdem]

6. Code for "We've asked Republicans to vote early, so any trouble

with the machines or polling places on election day is the Democrats' problem."

[Harlan James]

7. Right. The voters must take responsibility

...because Bush will never do it.

I always took a kind of comfort in thinking that since Bush was never really elected, his actions could never be seen as being our fault.

Of course, the most responsible thing the voters could do this year is recognize the errors Bush refuses to own up to and throw his useless ass out of the White House.

8. Responsibility

Too bad * doesn't have the brains to take responsibility for his idiocy....

Maybe it's sour-grapes pre-election-loss spin. "See, I told you if you didn't vote for * you wouldn't get him!"

[MockSwede]

9. My king of grapes

This is the kind of outcome I'd like to make the best vintage going!

[Warren DeMontague]

10. That's because Bush perfected the "It's Someone Else's Fault"

Style of governance.

11. "The Iraqis must take responsibility for their own security!"

[jefferson_dem]

12. I heard that several times today. Great TP. Blame the voters!

Spread it far and wide pukes.

:evilgrin:

13. How to take responsibility for your own votes:

If somebody steals your vote, get a gun and go after that bastard.

Now, for the record, I am NOT advocating this violent action. I am saying that, in effect, that is what the Republicans ARE now advocating. Right to revolution, and all that.
