Why does it take a right winger so long to tell the truth...

He in the last few years has turned into a real humanitarian in some issues.

McCain shocks again, calls partisan gerrymandering 'wasted votes, silenced voices and hidden power'



Quote:
In an amicus brief filed in Gill v. Whitford on Tuesday, McCain and Whitehouse argue that the redistricting map is the result of excessive partisan redistricting.

“Americans do not like gerrymandering,” McCain and Whitehouse wrote in the brief, first highlighted by The Huffington Post. “They see its mischief, and absent a legal remedy, their sense of powerlessness and discouragement has increased, deepening the crisis of confidence in our democracy."

"We share this perspective," they continued. "From our vantage point, we see wasted votes and silenced voices. We see hidden power. And we see a correctable problem.

hmm Can you imagine a liberal president ever disparaging a vet like this.

The vet groups would have stormed washington, but why the silence by VETs?
