Ketron (TN-ALEC) - Takes Credit for ALEC Voter ID

Bill Ketron of Murfreesboro, TN takes credit for the rash of anti-voter legislation that is being implemented across the United States.

The sponsors of Tennessee voter ID law say they were pushing the idea long before it ever became an ALEC model, though it did not pass until last year.

"I think they got their model from me," quipped Senate Republican Caucus Chairman Bill Ketron of Murfreesboro, Senate sponsor of the measure and a frequent attendee of ALEC events.

BTW:  The Voter ID bill was approved by the American Legislative Exchange Council in 2009 - how long was Tennessee trying to implement it - before 2009?????

WOW!  What a guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is either lying or a sociopath - That's something every true American patriot would really want to be very proud of - taking credit for writing legislation that disenfranchises 5 million people from being able to vote.

Another example of the resilency of the anti-democratic stance of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC).

"It's an organization that promotes the principles on which this country was founded -- free markets and free enterprise," said Rep. Steve McDaniel, R-Parkers Crossroads,

When buying and selling are controlled by legislation,

the first things to be bought and sold are legislators.
