6. It's not "fairness" when you make yourself into pretzel
defending the indefensible. It's something else. Corruption, stupidity, cowardice, maybe. "Fairness" -- no.

And it would be a completely different matter if every week we found that there were no caging lists, that there were PLENTY of voting machines in minority, low income and student precincts, if we found out that what looked like massive voter registration obstruction was something else, something innocent.

But, we're not finding that, are we? That isn't the trend, is it? And to ignore the fact that every week there is yet more reason to have absolutely no confidence in our electoral process is to willfully ignore reality.

It's not "fairness".
