Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) on Wednesday took aim at a measure intended to simplify voter registration and make voting easier, suggesting that the House Democrats’ For The People Act was “written in hell by the devil himself.”
If anyone would know the devil…
Hey Mikee:
H/T to Jim Jarmusch.
“This is a bill as if written in hell by the devil himself.”
How are Dems supposed to find common cause with people like this ?
“We hate to be micromanaged by outside instigators from Washington, D.C.”
–Governor George Wallace
Apparently, Satan told him this personally over drinks at CPAC.
The GOP officially claims that its platform is widely popular among non-white populations, yet it seems they’ve decided that suppressing non-whites’ access to the vote is easier than making their case to those same voters.
That’s the bed they’ve made for themselves.
Lee argued that the American electoral process has always been managed at the state and local level
Exactly, it’s a grand American tradition that corrupt state and local governments get to decide which Americans can vote. And, most importantly, which ones cannot.
During the Fox News interview on Wednesday, Lee argued that the American electoral process has always been managed at the state and local level and that the proposed bill would be an effort at micromanagement.
Yes, it has been, which led to this:
That required this:
One would think, considering the history of discrimination and even persecution of Mormons, that the man would be more attuned to the concept of democracy and equal human rights. As with other beliefs, religionists keep tripping over their dogma.
So, having more citizens voting is satanic? Got it! WTF??
Utah is not sending their best to the United States Senate.
Or, Lee is the best they got.
A guy who is a very active sub-adjutant in a political cult* headed by a prevaricating, pussy-grabbing, racist, white-collar criming, neo-fascist shouldn’t be telling us what is and isn’t the work of the devil.
And to save American democracy and our constitutional government Democrats must pass this bill at all costs. The other choice is permanent minority rule.
What! Some pudgy-faced white boy is whimpering about expanded voting rights, employing fire-and-brimstone imagery only his lily-white mirror-image Jesus would sanction?
Everyone lean in … This must be important!
Freakin’ snowflake.
Making sure everyone can vote is satanic? Really!?!?!?
There it is in a nutshell. Well put, Dan! 
In a press statement, Asmodeus, Satan’s Press Secretary, denied any hand here by Satan or his establishment connected to this legislation:
In keeping minority and marginalized voters enfranchised, it’s clearly not part of our pro-Republican Agenda, and we’d appreciate it if Sen. Lee could avoid dragging us into this when he’s committing False Witness and Anger on his own accord.”
GOPer fakes an outrage….
