>>This from the guy who denied that blacks had ever been denied the vote using tests for "political correctness" and was so unamerican as to propose that all voters should be given tests to make sure they agree with his right wing politically correct views before being allowed to vote. Unfortunately, he was being serious. Dragonflea, you are not only an idiot but a liar as well. I stated that a "poll tax" was something different than a literacy test. In your general confusion, you maintained they were the same thing. I stated that representative democracy is undermined when political illiterates, like yourself, become too numerous and vote. My remedy my some mandatory education and a test before anyone could vote. Dragonflea assumed she could not then vote, because a test of minimal knowledge would disqualify her. To imply, as she did, that blacks would be disqualified more often than other groups is both presumptuous and racist. Anyone can check the Loral politics thread to see "who said what". Dragonflea, you are beyond contempt. As always. Btw, as you can see above, Dragonflea has no idea what the definition of "politically correct" is and uses it when she should be using its antipode, "politically incorrect".
