The Cuyahoga County,Ohio,Board of Elections today can stare down the increasingly rogue voting rights section of the U.S. Department of Justice,which continues to play ethnic politics nationwide. The state of Georgia recently forced the department to back off from its bullying tactics,and this Buckeye county should do the same.
Justice officials have threatened legal action against the county board unless it prints all its ballots in bilingual fashion. “With additional requirements for translators,community outreach,additional staffing and printing,the demand potentially would double the county’s election costs,”board member Rob Frost told Jennifer Rubin of the Weekly Standard. “The Justice attorneys said they were authorized to sue the county. …”
The Justice Department‘s position is wrongheaded on several levels. First,the department bases its demand on Section 4(e) of the Voting Rights Act,which is meant to ensure ballot access for Puerto Rican natives who never learned English. Nothing in 4(e) requires that every ballot in a jurisdiction be printed in Spanish –but only that those Puerto Rican voters not be denied the right to vote due to an inability “to read,write,understand or interpret any matter in the English language.”There’s no reason to find the county noncompliant if most of its ballots are English-only,as long as its Spanish speakers have access to Spanish ballots upon request.
Borat Oblabla,destroying America one step at a time.
If praying for Obama is like pouring salt on his evil soul I pray for Obama.
Good for the Washington Times! It's a good paper that talks straight and tell it like it is. There should be more like it and less of the press kowtowing to Obama.
How many times? It appears that you are allergic to straight comment.
Good for the Washington Times! It's a good paper. There should be more like it instead of the many that kowtow ot Obama instead of telling it like it is.
This Illegal President,the Justice Department,our Judges in Federal Courts,&most Idiots in Congress,are Traitors,&should be Deported.
We are seeing the orchestrated dismantling of our "nation"as a viable social unit. Our Founder's formula for "nation"is found in the 2nd Federalist Paper:a community of kindred blood relatives (same race);professing the same religion (foundation of our Organic Law);and,speaking the same language.
"Nations are outgrowths of a primal family united by "sanguinity"(blood relatives sharing the same gene pool). The first thing a subversive does to destroy a "nation's"sanguintiy ties is to get them to inter-breed with a people of another gene pool,or of another race (aleins to the blood). This is why all "nations"once had laws prohibiting inter-marriages.
The second thing done to dilute their national unity is to disunite their religious foundation,the source of the Organic Law.
The third is to confound their language. A house divided against itself cannot stand. "Diversity"is a self destruct mechanism,a concept of communism,serving to undermine patriotism. Which flag will one support if you have no committed alliegiances?
Things have gone way to far in this country,because the voters have let it all happen,by not paying attention to how their reps in congress have voted on different issues. In the USA English is &should be the primary language,&if you want to live here,then learn to read &write the english language. Mullions of dollars are spent needlessly,because of printing costs,&special teachers in schools to cater to people who don't want to learn English. This is just one of many places money is wasted,&naturally,the tax payers are stuck with the bill. Of all the politicians in congress,I doubt you can find a thimble full of common sense.
