Here’s a fun one from a reader:
It never amazes me how the right wing will find a reason to criticize liberals and Democrats in just about everything. Now it’s the concern about young people thinking that voting is something that should be avoided. The answer why some Democrats might be concerned about this is pretty simple if you would only open your mind. The religious right, in cahoots with the GOP, is already out there enforcing its views of culture and morality on all of us. This faction is more concerned about contracting our existing constitutional rights — rights to equality, privacy, freedom from the establishment of religion, press, dissent, to name a few — rather than expanding them, such as insuring that all people eligible to vote can exercise that right, and have such votes counted when so exercised. By the way, “lighten up, Francis”? Did you go to school in the 1920’s?
