>Like I said earlier, I don't blindly trust in anything that ABC has to say. Most of their journalists lean way to the left. Pity that there seems to be no news outlet that actually wants to report the facts without injecting their own biases into the story.

You don't have to take ABC's word for it (or I guess any of the other major news organizations) - just listen to what Republicans are saying and the actions they're taking.

The Brennan Center for Justice notes that“The impact of ID requirements is even greater for the elderly, students, people with disabilities, low-income individuals, and people of color.... "African Americans have driver’s licenses at half the rate of whites, and the disparity increases among younger voters; only 22% of black men aged 18-24 had a valid driver’s license. Not only are minority voters less likely to possess photo ID, but they are also more likely than white voters to be selectively asked for ID at the polls.”

>I get it , Victor. You believe that anyone who is conservative is a bigoted money grubbing racist who wants to push granny over a cliff and keep minorities from voting. I just don't happen to agree with you.

No - I do not believe that all conservatives are bigoted - but it's obvious the GOP is. Look - if you don't want to hear that the republicans are racist - then I suggest they stop acting like it!!! How many recent examples do you want?

Republican former senator and apparently perpetual Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum's racist welfare rant.
Republican governor and apparently perpetual presidential candidate Rick Perry's refusal to criticize the racist rant that has other Republicans scurrying to jump ship on the deadbeat social welfare rancher they and Perry had been defending. But then Perry and racism and ranching are nothing new.
Republican senator and all-but-announced presidential candidate Rand Paul's curious habit of associating with white supremacists.
Republican former vice-presidential nominee, current Congressman and potential presidential candidate Paul Ryan's inner city problems.
Apparently perpetual Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. There's not much more that needs be said than Donald Trump. Forever Donald Trump. Perpetually Donald Trump. A real estate magnate in search of a hinge Donald Trump.
Republican former vice-presidential nominee and—as long as it keeps her in the general vicinity of a spotlight, any spotlight—apparently perpetual pretend potential presidential candidate Sarah Palin... Okay... Just ick.

Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert concerned that "federal funds going to China for the protection of rare cats and dogs may actually result in 'moo goo dog pan or moo goo cat pan'," and comparing civil rights laws to protecting lizards and chickens.
The 2012 Republican National Convention, so rife with racism, both on and off stage, the latter exemplified by a black CNN camerawoman being pelted with peanuts because "this is how we feed animals."
The Iowa Republican Party posting on its Facebook page a humorless racist graphic about racism.
The Mississippi Republican Party's Neo-Confederate wing.

Conservative Hoover Institute think tank thinker and National Review columnist Victor Davis Hanson's keen solipsistic projections about the motives, behavior and psychology of people who are not like Victor Davis Hanson.
And speaking of the conservative media icon National Review, how does one speak of the conservative media icon National Review without mentioning its long history of giving a print bullhorn to racists?

..and on and on and on. ..and this is just the tip of the iceberg too of course.

The racism at the core of the Republican agenda is neither accident nor coincidence. If the Republicans and their propagandists and their apologists genuinely want people to stop calling Republicans racists, whining and denying won't succeed. If the Republicans and their propagandists and their apologists genuinely want people to stop calling Republicans racists, the Republicans need to stop being racists!. We are nation with shifting racial demographics and they just can't deal with it.
