Voters should know the Dems did it

“Voter suppression?” It was the 1997 Georgia Democrats who introduced, sponsored and passed the now-infamous “use it or lose it” voter roll “purge” legislation that sore loser Stacey Abrams and the 2018 Democrats are using to attack Governor-Elect Brian Kemp. The exception on sponsors was Republican Robert Irvin.

It was Democrat Gov. Zell Miller who signed that legislation, HB 889, into law.

Contrary to the calculated howls from the Left, former Secretary of State Brian Kemp is merely “guilty” of obeying his oath of office and following the Democrat-concocted law.

Voters should be asking Democrats what they had in mind on the commonsense policy. Maybe it was long-forgotten interest in vote security?

Here is a ‘take-away’ on the liberal media’s incomplete coverage of Georgia Governor’s race: The Dems did the “use it or lose it” law and former Secretary of State Brian Kemp is only ‘guilty’ of following that law.

It was the 1997 Georgia Democrats who introduced, sponsored and passed the now infamous and partially reported “use it or lose it” voter ‘purge’ law that the liberal media, loser Stacey Abrams and the 2018 Democrats are using to vilify Governor-Elect Brian Kemp. The exception on sponsors was Republican Robert Irvin.

It was Democrat Governor Zell Miller who signed the legislation, HB 889, into law.

It was introduced by Chatham County Democrat Rep Sonny Dixon and was cosponsored by Reps (the late) William Lee (D), Larry Walker (D), Jimmy Skipper (D), Robert Irvin (R), and Greg K. Hecht (D).

Sonny Dixon won a Best Anchor Emmy Award for his work in broadcasting in Savannah and has a major road intersection named in his honor.

Attorney and writer Larry Walker has served on the Board of Regents and on the state’s Georgia Department of Transportation Board.

Greg Hecht went on to the state senate and was the Democrat’s 2014 candidate for Attorney General.

Brian Kemp wasn’t in the Georgia legislature in 1997 when the Dems passed the bill they hate so vocally now that Comrade Abrams has finally admitted defeat.

We haven’t seen this in any liberal media outlets – but will do a complete search for a credible and compelling Georgia news article that we may have missed. But, maybe they are hiding it.

14 (F) “Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be , he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”

See for yourself. It isn’t as confusing as the media wants it to be. Read it and pass it on. Maybe to an AJC or WSB  reporter.

I’m sure they are the nicest of folks, but I never heard of these people until yesterday, when they sent me a text out of nowhere.

The second listed text below (bottom) came to my mobile phone last night. I have no idea how they got my phone number or who ‘Daisy” is. After I Googled ‘ColorOfChange‘ this morning and signed up to join with an email address, I received the top text.

A response to the editorial board of the Savannah Morning News. Editor told me to send it, but did not run it.

The next governor should enforce state laws aimed at illegal immigration

 D.A. King

 The board’s recent foray into the politics of immigration enforcement and which gubernatorial candidate would be most careful on the issue seemed to take an overly moderate path of moderation. It hit most of the well-heeled anti-enforcement lobby’s talking points on the dangers of the rule of law to the quarterly profit reports of Georgia’s industry, including the oft-used ‘immigration enforcement is a federal issue.’ It’s not.

That we are told we should not have an excessive amount of enforcement on immigration as it may have negative effects on “children and families” is curious advice.

We can’t help but wonder at the board’s position on enforcement of ID theft and Social Security fraud laws – which are both felonious components of illegal immigration. Should we only punish Americans for these crimes so as to not inconvenience families of illegal aliens?

The crime of illegal employment is primary driver of the crime of illegal immigration. Easily as important as securing our national borders, insuring that “cheap”, taxpayer-subsidized, black market labor is not allowed to take Georgian’s jobs and lower our wages should be high on the list of priorities for everyone concerned. Including editorial boards.

Against the powerful opposition of the business lobby, state lawmakers have twice (2006 and 2011) mandated use of the no-cost federal E-Verify system to head off illegal employment. Unsurprisingly, those laws are treated as optional when it comes to enforcement.

A recent investigative report from Bloomberg Businessweek shows that in the twelve years of the state’s E-Verify statute’s existence, the grand total of prosecutions for violation by employers is…zero. This seems to represent the amount of concern or investigation by the state’s media on the subject – but we do hear the constant approval that “Georgia is number one for business.”

Using data from the Migration Policy Institute, the left-leaning Georgia Budget and Policy Institute acknowledges in a pie chart that Georgia is home to more illegal aliens than Lawful Permanent Residents (green card holders). The feds estimate that we have more illegals than Arizona. We issue drivers licenses and official ID Cards to aliens who are already under deportation orders. It is easy to refer to our beloved but increasingly bewildering state as “Georgiafornia.”

The board’s advice to readers that we “walk a tightrope” on regulations and warnings that we not make waves lest we effect business’s profits is not the common sense it is depicted to be.

The next governor should enforce the laws already passed under the Gold Dome on illegal immigration.
