There is no role for SCOTUS here, either.

Well, if anyone personally knows the intentions of Satan, it would most certainly be Mike Lee, since he gives The Dark Lord handjobs on a regular basis.

I wish there actually was a devil so this a$$hole could meet him when he is no longer (dies). Something that can’t happen soon enough.

Harry Reid was, somehow, a mentor to Mike Lee.

Ah, the smell of demonizing the other party in the early morning to replace the early spring smell we would otherwise experience. Gotta love it.

So, ok, got a hell and devil on the table, and I raise you two Nazi’s.

The bill should allow states to not have to follow the rules in it.

But also doubles the senate and house contingent of states that do accept and follow the bill.

Is he against people voting? What about this bill makes it hard for people to vote?

What about this bill looks like it was written in hell by the devil himself. Not generalities, specifics.

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.”

I’m pretty sure that you could find similar (or even verbatim) statements made in the past about extending the franchise to women, or blacks, or … (well, basically anyone beyond the landed gentry, or even the person of the monarch).

Tends to indicate the bill is on the right track.
