Columnist Mike Williams: "Fairness for Felons"
Tuesday, December 29, 2009
I'm not sure what the weird music is, but other than that, I agree with "Mike's Take" on restoration of voting rights for ex felons. Before he leaves office in 2 1/2 weeks, Tim Kaine should issue a blanket restoration for anyone who has "done their time" and "paid their debt to society." Kaine himself says he would like to do this, but erroneously claims that he doesn't have the authority. Just issue the order, governor, and bring Virginia into the 21st century along with almost every other state in America.
