Attorney General Holder's NAACP Speech

US Attorney General Eric Holder came to Houston to speak at the 103rd NAACP convention and had a message for the conservafools trying desperately to suppress the vote in advance of the 2012 presidential election.

He isn't backing off from trying to repeal  your Voter ID suppression laws.    He contends (and I concur with his assessment) that they are poll taxes specifically banned under the 24th Amendment. .

For you conservailliterate sheeple, here's the text of the 24th Amendment since y'all only read the 2nd and 10th and ignore the 25 other amendments that make up our Constitution. .

Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice President, for electors for President or Vice President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress, shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax. Section 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
