A relative of mine said to me the North Carolina GOP is the most corrupt GOP in the US.

I tend to agree with her, with the racial voting suppression and gerrymandering, the district 9 fiasco, and now the 9-11 "vote" by the NC state congress.

Our Wisconsin GOP is bad, but not as bad as North Carolina's.

It's hard to imagine a worse bunch of "legislators."

Fuck 'em all!

in elections and such. A disgusting and desperate attempt to retain power by a bunch of entitled brats. Nothing less. They should be all RICO'ed out of office and thrown into jail.
