Last time I checked, these Flat Earth politicians don't just magically take their seats in Richmond! How about the Flat Earth knuckle draggers known as voters? Don't they deserve at least part of the responsibility for putting these asshats into office?

Are the voters to be given a free pass?

Let's start by accepting the fact that a good portion of Virginia voters are just as corrupt, racist, and full of hate as the politicians they vote for...and then we can add in the religious fanatics who hate what extremist Islam calls for, while never seeing in the mirror that they are just as evil and extreme!

Then we can look at the women who seem to be suffering from spouse abuse syndrome, especially when they also vote for politicians who have already thrown them under a bus when it came to a woman's right to manage her own health care issues.

And last, those women in the state legislature who have become collaborators against their own gender, by both introducing and voting for bills that force women to undergo a medical procedure that is nothing more then a tool to shame them.

So you see, it isn't only the corrupt, racist, religious fanatics who represent the people, the blame also has to be placed on those people who support and vote for those politicians!
