It's the subtitles that make it hilarious.
Then you must disagree with the loss of the right to vote while incarcerated, as well.
Maxine and Fredricka should be next
So both Scooter Libby and Oliver North should be stripped of their voting rights?
You can't have it both ways.........
Yes, anyone convicted of a felony unless....overturned on appeal, pardoned or successful petition for restoration.
I don’t honestly know if Libby and North lost the right since I believe they were convicted of federal crimes and I don’t know the federal sentencing laws.
Which really takes us back to the thread topic. I think she was convicted of a federal crime so the Florida law would not apply anyway, so watch out for Corinne at a polling place in beautiful Duval County.....

There is something wrong here, when I look up the Sumpter Correctional Institution it shows as a prison for men.
>>>>>Is this the one who is always wearing her kooky version of an f-me cowgirl hat? Nah... some other kook.<<<<<
Some other FLORIDA kook. Lord knows, we have more than our share of them.
One down, so many to go.
“One down, so many to go.”
May there be so many, that we will need spreadsheets and computers to keep track of those leaving the swamp!
NO, it doesn't take us back......You're deliberately ignoring my question
What question?
You know exactly what question but I'll post it for a final time.
Should Scooter Libby and Oliver North be stripped of their voting rights?
Since it's apparent you don't know who they are, google their names then come back and give me an answer.........Thank you
Why the attitude? I answered the question in the first two words.
You won't find it.......
Is every law contained in every state constitution or the Constitution of the United States? The denial of the vote to convicted felons must not be unconstitutional or surely it would have been successfully challenged by now.
14th amendment section 2
Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.
Let’s pray this is the start of a trend.
I think it should be the courts, but there needs to be consistency in sentencing and early releases. I don't know how that can be fixed.
The reason for the 13 two year terms of Corrine Brown was the weird Congressional District she ran in. It ran from Jacksonville south to the Orlando area, and at one point it also traveled west and then south to Levy County on the west coast of Florida. In some cases it travel along both sides of a highway and little else. All this was to ensure that a district was set aside for a Black Congressional Representative.
She screamed loudly and fiercely when it was changed to a district that ran straight west toward
