If there is
an issue that illustrates the great divide between liberals and conservatives,
it could the common sense matter of felon voting rights.
In the
United States, only two states allow convicted felons to vote from prison. They
are Maine and Vermont. And so it doesn’t really surprise me that Bernie Sanders---from
Vermont--- is just fine with allowing folks into the polls like the guy
convicted of perpetrating the Boston Marathon terrorist bombing, killing three
and injuring dozens of others. No, really.
The bomber will
never see the light of day….but Sanders thinks the radical terrorist should be
extended the right to vote in local, state and national elections. Bernie also likes
giving the right to child molesters…
Even Joy
Behar of “The View” had to swallow hard on that one. She said, “it doesn’t
sound good.” That’s the first time Behar and I have been on the same page for a
long, long time.
Look, I’m
good with restoring voting to felons who have served their time. Truly, at that
point they have served their debt to society. But giving a radicalized
terrorist or a pervert the ability to cancel out my vote while they are in the
slammer….is….absolutely the sickest liberal joke I’ve ever heard.
Only three
states----Kentucky, Virginia and Iowa, permanently revoke a person’s right to
vote based on a felony conviction. In Illinois, once you get out of prison, you
can vote. As I said, I’m OK with that.
Just
remember, Bernie Sanders is fine with giving someone like David Berkowitz, the
Son of Sam murderer, a vote in the 2020 presidential election….despite the fact
he made sure six people will never vote again. Behar is right—it doesn’t sound
good.
