Bolton Decries ‘Reverse Intimidation’: GOP Poll Watchers, Not Minorities, Are The Ones Actually Being Harassed»

Today on Fox News, host Megyn Kelly continued to rail against voting rights laws meant to protect Americans’ voting rights. Her guest, former U.N. ambassador and key 2000 Florida recount player John Bolton, were angry at the fact that there weren’t more criminal prosecutors at polling places. In fact, according to Bolton, GOP poll watchers, not minorities, are the ones who need protection:

BOLTON: There’s kind of a reverse intimidation going on. People who go and try to be poll watchers and keep fraudulently registered people from voting. They’re being told they’re intimidating minorities; it’s a form of political incorrectness.

Really, voting is an act of civic responsibility and making sure that only legitimate people votes is a very important aspect of this. Yet many Republican poll watchers, we’ve already heard, are being intimidated in their own right.

1. Turn the tables. You betcha.

Cry me a river , Bolton. Asshole.

[EOTE]

2. Reverse intimidation? Wouldn't that be a good thing?

What, are they bringing iced tea and donuts to people waiting in line? I cringe when I hear crap like this, not only because I think it's ridiculous BS, but intimidation is intimidation regardless of who it's directed towards, just like racism is racism regardless of the races involved.

3. Good! A swift kick to the nasty bits are in order.

Eight years of intimidation from these bastards. Not one more.

4. Oh, that just makes me giggle ...

"Reverse Intimidation" Well, at least the fucker is honest in his word choice.

[Vickers]

5. Pure projection.

Translation: Repuke poll watchers are harassing minority voters.

9. What is a "legitimate person"?

[Jack Rabbit]

20. A white male who owns property, of course

[Strawman]

10. How absurd. Almost no fraud takes place at the polls (it's absentee)

The only reason these Republican assholes go to these polling places in minority areas is to intimidate and harass Democratic voters. They get off on it because they're fucking dicks. And if some angry voter decides to rip his ridiculous moustache off his ugly face and shove it up his ugly ass, I'd call that just deserts.

11. Eat shit and die.

[Brewman_Jax]

23. Reverse intimidation

:rofl: that's a good one--not to mention that indirect admission of voter intimidation.

This ain't the pre-Civil Rights era when you scumbags could get away with actually killing people that wanted to exercise their right to vote.

[cliffordu]
