The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

Voter ID's ALL THE WAY!!!

Anyone with a half-a-brain and a desire for 'true democracy' would support voter ID's. Especially in the light of all of the voter/election fraud and corruption that looms the entire political arena.

The liberal crazies just don't see this as a safe guard for the electorate....not the politicians. Remember....the liberal, left over hippie nut jobs look through 'victim colored glasses'!!!!

VOTER ID???

Bumble still thinks that this issue concerns VOTER ID!  

"Voter Suppression" as orchestrated by the GOP in Florida has nothing to do with VOTER ID.  In this case,
thousands of legally registered voters are being removed from the registry using out of date and inaccurate
data.  Some of the data is over 10 years old that will remove a US Citizen from the voter registry.  When they
show up to vote in November, they will find out that they are no longer registered to vote.
They could be carrying a legal passport, drivers license, and a dozen other legal forms of ID... and will find out
that they have been cheated out of their vote by the GOP.

Of course the vast majority of people targeted in this campaign are Democrats... Of course!

singular way to cure voter suppression is to really piss off a sector of the public that really feels they have nothing to lose and overwhelm the system.....

MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin — Last year, nearly a dozen new states passed voter ID laws. These laws may have
prevented the nine cases of voter impersonation that occurred between 2000 and 2007, but the Brennan Center
estimates they could collectively disenfranchise more than three million people this year. In other words, for each
case of voter impersonation these laws prevent, nearly 350,000 citizens may lose their right to vote.

Holder Fires Back at GOP With Florida Voter Suit
By Chris Stirewalt
Published June 13, 2012
FoxNews.com

“The debate is over about whether people are out there that are non U.S. citizens who registered to vote. They have. There’s no debate about whether they’ve voted. They have. There’s no debate that they can impact elections. They can.”

Even as Attorney General Eric Holder was pleading with Senate Republicans for a compromise on a looming contempt of Congress vote over an alleged cover-up of a botched gunrunning sting, he was preparing to open a new front in his battle with the GOP.

Holder is already facing a growing chorus of calls for his resignation over a refusal to comply with subpoenas from House Republicans and is under increasing pressure for his handling of a torrent of national security leaks.
-
Holder’s agency moved Tuesday to block Florida from an ongoing effort to purge voter rolls of dead people and non-citizens. The federal lawsuit warns of voter disenfranchisement from Florida’s effort to crosscheck a list of more than 2,600 potentially ineligible registered voters produced by public safety officials against county registration records......................>>>>......................>>>>...............Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politic.....-suit/#ixzz1xlbNXWEv

The GOV Of Florida, Guilty of Voter Fraud?

In a bizarre turn of events...  It turns out that those Dead People Voting that you always hear about from the Right
Wing Crazies... turned out to be The 'DEAD' GOVERNOR HIMSELF!



The story:
"(Reuters) - Florida's governor, who is leading a disputed purge of voter registration rolls, had to cast
a provisional ballot in 2006 because officials mistakenly thought he was dead.

"Governor Rick Scott was required to use a provisional ballot in the 2006 primary and general elections
because Collier County election officials had received a Social Security Death Index Death Record that
led them to believe he had died on January 27, 2006."

Unlike the Gov, who got to use a 'provisional ballot' the GOP Voter Suppression campaign that is now
going on, the targets of The GOV (mostly Democrats) will be removed from the voter registration rolls...
they will be inelligible to vote because the GOP vigilantes erased their names from the Registration.

How To Steal a Presidential Election.... (Again)

If you are forced to campaign with a losing Republican prospect, the proven way to "win" the election is to steal
it.
Examples:

~ Earlier this week former employees of Sproul & Associates (operating under the name Voters Outreach of
America), a firm hired by the Republican National Committee to register voters, told a Nevada TV station that
their supervisors systematically tore up Democratic registrations.

~ In 2002 the Republican Party in New Hampshire hired an Idaho company to paralyze Democratic get-out-
the-vote efforts by jamming the party's phone banks.

~ Ohio's secretary of state, a Republican, tried to use an archaic rule about paper quality to invalidate
thousands of new, heavily Democratic registrations. (The attempt failed.)

~In Wisconsin, a Republican county executive insists that this year, when everyone expects a record
turnout, Milwaukee will receive fewer ballots than it got in 2000 or 2002 - a recipe for chaos at polling
places serving urban, mainly Democratic voters.

~ Florida, as mentioned in the beginning of this thread, is in the midst of a Republican Voter Suppression
campaign.

IF ya can't beat um... Steal the election!

"More than 758,000 registered voters in Pennsylvania do not have photo identification cards from the
state Transportation Department, putting their voting rights at risk in the November election".
The figures represent 9.2% of the state's 8.2 million voters.

(Philadelphia Inquirer )

Some type of photo-id should be required to vote... and the government should provide it for free.
It should be a part of your voter registration process. Providing it for free should satisfy everyone's concerns... what's so hard to figure out?

If you're going to kick 758,000 registered voters off the voting rolls, then you should provide free
photo identification cards BEFORE the November elections.

Many states already provide a voter ID for free but that doesn't fit into the voter suppression scare that the Dems are pushing.
