After several recent court rulings striking down voting
restrictions, Republicans have complained that their right to bamboozle is in
jeopardy. As voting demographics change, the conservative group Committee to
Lead Astray (CLA) has prompted state legislatures to furiously enact laws that favor
Republican outcomes. Many of these laws are being challenged as quickly as they
are being passed.
The Republican National Committee has responded in part with
the following statement:
“These unfortunate rulings are a blow to centuries of
American tradition. Hoodwinking blacks is the foundation of our nation’s
character. It’s that struggle that makes us all better. If Blacks don’t feel
like they’ve been took, led astray or run amok , we’re not living up to the
wishes of our Founding Fathers. Ours is a system of checks and balances. Our
right to hoodwink balances the Blacks’ right to be hoodwinked. We encourage all
Americans to join us in regaining our freedom to bamboozle.”
