Delay Election Day? Hell No. - By Jonah Goldberg

Delay Election Day? Hell No. - By Jonah Goldberg - The Corner - National Review Online

We are constantly bathed in platitudes about how vital, wonderful, special, glorious and sacred voting is. But don’t you dare ask the American people to put the slightest bit of effort into the practice.
You're right again, Jonah. Why would Americans possibly be so uptight about securing voting rights for all people*?  It's almost as if we've had some series of mean scrapes over this issue in the past, you mean and mediocre bucket of silt.  

*And by "all people" I obviously mean the kinds of people our state recognizes as worthy of 'full' citizenship, American-style.
