Misty: Paul Weyrich, "father" of the right-wing movement and co-founder of the Heritage Foundation, Moral Majority and various other groups once said, "I don't want everybody to vote.I don't want stupid, uninformed people to vote. Do you? Duuh.Unlike you, I want every American citizen to vote.But Weyrich in no way wants to disenfranchise anyone. He's an honorable man.Obviously you're in no position to judge who's honorable. In my post that you quoted, I also posted the video of Paul Weyrich saying from his very own mouth that he doesn't want everybody to vote.You ignored it, edited it out of my quote, and still insist that he does not want to disenfranchise any voters.How **** honorable is that?Here is my full post with video:Paul Weyrich, "father" of the right-wing movement and co-founder of the Heritage Foundation, Moral Majority and various other groups once said, "I don't want everybody to vote. Elections are not won by a majority of people, they never have been from the beginning of our country and they are not now. As a matter of fact, our leverage in the elections quite candidly goes up as the voting populace goes down."Notice that Weyrich said, "our leverage in the elections quite candidly goes up as the voting populace goes down."By 'our' he means Republicans/Conservatives, and that is why voter suppression and disenfranchisement are standard operating procedure for the GOP.
