OMG, I can’t tell if this woman is a remorseful liar or just plain dumb (or maybe a little from column A, and a little from column B). And also, she submitted her family bible, high-school records, and church records. So if you’re a home-schooled atheist, then what? Does your library card count?

This is just further evidence that republicans are kind of dumb, and very much up to no good.

“French said no, it was something she saw on television”

I’ll give you three guesses…

It was Dennis Dennison on TV is my bet.

Jesus Christ, Kobach’s team doesn’t have three brain cells to split between them.

Couldn’t torpedo your case more effectively with a nuclear submarine.

I am shocked that we live in an America where Kobach is taken seriously as everyone knows what is really happening.

The overwhelming support for Donald Trump by Evangelical voters proves that “values” in front of the word voter has always been code for race just as claims of in person voter fraud are code for keeping people of color from voting.

So all she needed was to still have access to all her family’s possessions, know multiple people who still worked in the town where she grew up, and have multiple friends who were willing to drive her around to collect documents and go to a hearing held during business hours. Easy Peasy.

Otherism more generally, I think. There are still plenty of places in the bible belt where being a pale-white Catholic is as dirty as being black or Latino, or (for that matter) gay.

Quick question about the thigh-slappingly funny Ms. French: What color is she?

I’m going out on a limb and guessing Ms. French is somewhere between cream and ecru. Definitely not on the taupe end of the color chart.

But I sure do appreciate Kobach bringing in a witness to prove the exact opposite of the point he was trying to make!

SMH… :pensive:

“I wanted [Kobach] to look good,” she said at one point, when asked about when the Secretary of State’s office reached out to her about testifying.

:grinning:

Good luck with that and getting your pony this Christmas.
