But why? Why is helping people and restoring rights to them egregious?That is like saying "This person is horrible because they gave to charity because of tax breaks". They still gave to charity and helped people, I don't really see why I should care what their reasoning is, especially when it is based solely on an assumption...

Especially when, by that logic, Republicans are just removing rights from people because they know it will help them get power.

I don't think giving to charity is play to keep a party in power.

I don't think taking voting rights from criminals was a move to keep the republicans in power.

You seem to misunderstand metaphors. My point was that attacking someone for doing a good thing for a selfish reason is fairly silly, especially when you are comparing it to doing a bad thing for a selfish reason. Either way, you have Democrats supporting the restoration of possibly the most important right within a democracy to a large group of taxpaying individuals whose rights should be better represented within our government.

And once again, all of the evidence to support these assertions of motive seems to boil down to "I think" or "I don't think", which does little to actual support a discussion.
