Preventing American Citizens from Voting is the most Anti-American thing our politicians are doing right now

I don't care who you are or what your party affiliation is, if you are not outraged by the fact that our politicians are doing everything in their power to prevent our fellow American Citizens from voting, then you are unquestionably anti-American, anti-democratic, anti-Constitution, and definitely unpatriotic.  Yes, these disgusting voter suppression tactics are clearly targeted at Democratic voters; but they will undoubtedly also affect plenty of Republican voters and prevent them from voting too!  But it just doesn't matter what their party affiliation is, because voting is a fucking Constitutional right—not a privilege, but a right—that every single American citizen has, and that no politician nor government official should ever be allowed to stand in the way of.  (What does the Constitution actually say about voting rights?)



And by the way, the fact that citizens convicted of a crime in 48 states have their voting rights taken away, either temporarily or permanently, is also, I would argue, un-Constitutional and anti-democratic.  Criminal disenfranchisement laws are just plain unjust.  So what if you've been convicted of a crime?  You are still a human being and you are still an American citizen, and therefore you still should be owed the same basic right to a voice as every other American citizen has.  Because the right to vote, along with the right to free speech, is fundamental to the very nature of our democracy.  Because both the right to vote and the right to free speech are fundamentally about having the right to a voice, each citizen having an equal voice, and that that voice cannot and will not be silenced by any governmental force, because doing so is nothing short of antithetical to what a democracy is.

Dear Senators,

You do realize the extreme backlash you will face if you vote to confirm Kavanaugh, right?

You do realize that you are supposed to be representing the American people, and the American people have spoken loudly and clearly that they do not want Kavanaugh, right?

And you do realize that your names will be inscribed into history as being forever attached to what will be historically remembered as the Kavanaugh scandal, don't you?

You do realize the shame that will bring upon your families, now and in the future, don't you?

I mean, surely you must realize these things, right?

And you do realize, you do remember, that there are several other factors that ought to disqualify Kavanaugh from being awarded one of the highest job promotions in the entire nation, right?
