13. A bad move for him, I think
Texas allows ex-felons to vote two years after completing their sentences while Virginia withholds voting rights permanently.

14. That makes sense
Ironically enough this is likely the cause of Allen-Gilmore era signed state legislation. Allen ran for governor here promising to get rid of parole so it wouldnt surprise me if he favored things like this.

15. I'm surprised that such laws are even constitutional
I think people should be able to vote even while in prison but I may be tempted to change my mind if a lot of Republicans get convicted.

16. I dont know
Maybe someone outta sue and see what the highest court in the land thinks. I don't have enough experience and knowledge of Constiutional law to make a full judgement on whether felons should be able to vote or not. I think it would be ironic as hell though if he goes to jail and comes here and tries to be a key figure in Virginia Republican politics because he won't be able to actually vote due to Allen era legilsation. I am surprised though that Texas is lenant like that.

23. Glad he's out of Texas
Edited on Wed Apr-05-06 07:37 AM by slide to the left
I fucking hate him. And Cornyn. And KBH. Actually the only Texas politician I like is Chet Edwards! Chet for President! BTW, I would quit my job and work for Chet if he was to for go the House and run for Senate or Prez!

Edit: Not that I am for the death penalty, but shouldn't political crimes count as treason?

26. Buckshot dick was looking for a mansion
on the eastern shore of the chesapeake over the labor day weekend last year (the same as condi-liar was looking for shoes, bush was strumming, and oh, by the way there was also a disasterous hurricane on Louisiana).

Rummy already has a place in eastern md.

28. Here's what my friend in VA had to say.
when I sent her an e-mail to congratulate her on VA's newest resisdent.

"It's okay because he'll move up in the northern part -- that's what we call Occupied Virginia." (She's in Richmond.)

29. Ha!
My stepfather (a native Virginian) tells me that they had several votes back in the 50's and 60's to boot NoVa out of the Commonwealth.

Next time you talk to hear ask her
