GOP to black voters -- drop dead. No, wait, come back ...

Previously, we had Michigan State Rep. John Pappageorge (R-Too Many Black People):

"If we do not suppress the Detroit vote, we're going to have a tough time in this election."

Followed shortly thereafter by Preznit George W. Chimpster:

"I'm going to ask African-American voters to consider some questions. Does the Democrat Party take African-American voters for granted? It's a fair question. I know plenty of politicians assume they have your vote, but do they earn it and do they deserve it?"

Well, gee, that's a toughie. Let's see ... here, we have John Kerry, announcing the creation of 'a nationwide legal SWAT team of election lawyers to combat the kind of voting irregularities that occurred in Florida four years ago ... [that] would take "tough action" to prevent the kind of voter "intimidation and harassment" that kept an estimated 1 million African-American voters from the polls in 2000 and prevented some 57,000 African-American voters from casting votes in Palm Beach County, Fla.'

And here, again (just cuz you can't give this inanity too much press), we have Pappageorge:

"If we do not suppress the Detroit vote, we're going to have a tough time in this election."

Yeah, it's a tough call. Grapple, grapple ... What was the question again, George?
