4723 How to Vote in Flexas
At this writing, Florida has made voting harder than
ever. Texas already is the toughest state in which to vote and plans to
make it even harder. Two red states. Both with their feet firmly planted
in the Confederacy. Both dominated by Republicans from when Democrats stopped
being Dixiecrats.
Florida’s governor went to palm beach to sign the new
restrictions in a celebration sponsored by a trump fan club. Texas is still
working on its version of similar restrictions. But barring a lightning strike,
there’s no chance they’ll fail in the legislature or the governor won’t sign
them into law.
What’s the big idea behind all this? If you ask the
sponsors, they’ll tell you it’s fairness. Fairness to whom? Well…
voters. If you want to sail through the line on election day, be
white.
You say you are that? OK, just make sure you have all your
identification papers in order and with you. Bring your own water bottle
so you don’t have to ask for someone to bring you one while you’re on line in
110 degree heat. Same with sunscreen. Make sure you’re wearing some
even if the line is indoors. Sunshine in Flexas penetrates roofs.
If you can’t be white, at least have a government issued
i.d. Of some kind… a passport, a driver’s license. Even if the poll
watcher is someone you’ve lived next to for 50 years and your kids all grew up
together and played in each other’s yards.
What’s behind all this nonsense? The answer is both
simple and easy. The White Knights or Republican party can’t win
elections. So the next best thing is to make sure you’re one of them … or
at least LOOK like one of them.
Here’s an extra tip: Don’t wear religious garb… you
know… Dashikis or something that makes you look like you just got back from a pilgrimage
to Mecca or those high-fashion black getups the Hasidim wear.
If you’re wearing religious accessories, make sure they’re
crosses, not six-pointed stars or crescent moons. If you’re a man in a
suit or sport coat, a confederate flag pin will be as good as an America flag
pin. Sometimes better.
If you’re a black male, a shaved head is a threat. If
you’re a white male with a skin head, well, skinheads are perfectly acceptable.
Jackboots, too. But leave the Swastika armbands at home. It’s not
that anyone will object, but it makes those newly empowered poll watchers
uncomfortable.
See? It’s simple. Compliance is easy. As long as
you’re white. And don’t worry about the obvious inconsistency of hating the government
but still carrying government I.D. cards. Even if you’re a “Sovereign
Citizen.”

--Bill and Melinda Gates are getting divorced. It’s
“amicable.” So why do they both need lawyers?
