All around asshat and racial profiling supporter Jim Inhofe takes cartoon of naked Al Gore to Senate floor, sates, “”Gore seems to be drowning in a sea of his own global warming illusions”.

“JEFFERSON CITY, MO – Faced with an American Civil Liberties Union lawsuit, a political operative who has failed twice before to place an anti-affirmative action initiative on the Missouri ballot has abandoned his latest attempt to rewrite the state constitution to ban equal opportunity programs. ”
What an idiot. I wonder if he is at the teabagger extravaganza. I wish we had a law against agitating against a minority here in the U.S. like they do in Sweden.

Right now in New York, more than 122,000 people are prohibited from voting because of felony convictions. The state’s felony disfranchisement policy — which prohibits people who are incarcerated or on parole for a felony offense from voting — hits communities of color particularly hard, barring one out of every 24 black New Yorkers of voting age from the polls. Felony disfranchisement laws have a disproportionate impact on people and communities of color not only in New York, but also nationwide. Indeed, close to 1.5 million black men are disfranchised due to felony convictions. If incarceration rates hold steady, three in 10 of the next generation of black men will be stripped of their right to vote at some point in their lives.

I love how the Republicans are now denouncing/distancing themselves from these racist assholes. Here in Washington, the protest has been described as “small” and “pathetic”.
Want to successfully create and mobilize a political movement? Don’t share your racist politics with others.
