Are all Republicans Idiots?

A true conservative understands that some issues should have stayed solely a state issue, where each state passes their own laws, as long as those laws don't violate the constitution.

If it was up to the states only people of wealth would be able to vote in most southern and many western states. They would exclude, blacks, dagos, irish, and mexicans.

Requiring people to have ID is in no way trying to dny someones right to vote.
It is more likely to protect their right to vote.

States in the south are still trying to pass laws that deny the right to vote to certain groups of people usually poor and minority people who dont vote the way they want them to. If I have to post proof just let me know but most times you just disregard them if they dont fit your mind set.

Don't make the mistake of blaming all conservatives for the actions of the tea party, instead try and actually understand what true conservatives believe.

I think you will be surprised to find that you would agree with much of what conservatives think.

“Before, when my friends on the left side of the aisle here tried to make rape and incest the subject — because, you know, the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low,” Franks said

Franks continued: “But when you make that exception, there’s usually a requirement to report the rape within 48 hours. And in this case that’s impossible because this is in the sixth month of gestation. And that’s what completely negates and vitiates the purpose for such an amendment.”

Democrats on the committee, including Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), responded by pointing to similar comments made by then-Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) in his 2012 Senate campaign. Akin suggested that the female body can prevent pregnancy from occurring after a “legitimate rape” — a claim that is not backed up by scientific research and for which Akin apologized.

“I just find it astonishing to hear a phrase repeated that the incidence of pregnancy from rape is low,” Lofgren said. “There’s no scientific basis for that. And the idea that the Republican men on this committee can tell the women of America that they have to carry to term the product of a rape is outrageous.”

As the Post’s Sarah Kliff noted at the time of Akin’s comments, a 2003 study from St. Lawrence University actually found that pregnancy results from rape significantly more often it does in other cases.

A 2011 study from San Francisco State University found that, in Colombia, “female youth who have experienced sexual violence report significantly higher levels of unintended pregnancy and unmet need for contraception and lower levels of current modern contraceptive use compared to those who have not experienced sexual violence.”
