Supreme Contradictory Delusions!

Supreme Court Justices', correctly,  upheld equal rights protections for same sex couples the day after conservative justices denied equal rights voting protections for Hispanic, African American, Native American, Asian American, college student, poor, and elderly voters!?!?!

Justices John Roberts, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito ruled against equal rights  by gutting Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act!

Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act - revised and extended several times by Congress - establishes a coverage formula to determine which states and local governments fall under Section 5, and therefore need to get approval before changing their voting laws.

The conservative justices based their ruling on the contradictory delusion that since Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act proved to be a success,  "preclearance is no longer needed”(?!?!)

Then conservative justices strengthened their contradiction with the equally delusional ruling that our Tea Partied  Congress "may draft another formula based on current conditions”!?!?!

Less than two days after the ruling, Tea Partied governors, legislators, and   attorney generals in six states resumed their bigoted actions to restrict voting rights for 

The six states are:
Texas
Mississippi
Alabama
Arkansas
South Carolina
Virginia

WE must preserve the legacy of each and every American of varying races, colors and creeds who was beaten, hosed, jailed or killed in order to fight for our right to vote!
