Once again, TRMS hits hard on issues.

The primary topic being gerrymandering, and the GOP's desire to reallocate presidential electoral votes according to Congressional districts.

She's trying to get the word out about how sinister the GOP's plans are.

And they are putting all their pieces into place and the parts ARE ALL WORKING properly and as planned.

She also mentioned Eric Holder's speech - I want to call it a trial balloon of election reform, National Election Standards and an end to partisan gerrymandering.

But Eric Holder made a similar speech before in 2011.

So here he is again in 2012.

And since this has absolutely nothing to do with pot, perhaps we have a chance of getting something positive and progressive done. Although seeing the 2011 speech and the full throat assault on America by the GOP gone completely unobstructed in 2012, doesn't leave me feeling overly optimistic.

Perhaps it's time to fire up every method of communication bearing Eric Holder's name?

Email, snail mail, phone calls, petitions, tweets.
