Sensenbrenner and the Voting Rights Act
This is maybe only the second time that I have found common cause with Representative Jim Sensenbrenner (R – WI). These excerpts are from an op-ed piece that he published in today’s New York Times: Suppress Votes? I’d Rather Lose My Job: DURING my 10 years in the Wisconsin State…

Hello dey, Wisconsin!
Hello, good morning, good day and good evening, or as my Grandpa Lee used to say, “Hello Dey!” For those of you who do not know me, as I’m guessing that’s pretty much everyone, I’m Dustin. I’m another poor college student, union thug, pinko liberal here to dispel words upon…
