No Eric, voter ID's
prevent fraud. Of course Democrats have come to rely on votes from dead people, ineligible people and illegal aliens. This poses a problem for them.
Eric Holder: Voter ID laws hurt minorities - Josh Gerstein - POLITICO.com
You way off base about voter fraud. Both Bush and Obama have conducted investigations into voter fraud and they turned up with nothing. VOTER FRAUD IS NOT AN ISSUE. Has their been cases of voter fraud? Of course, but it's so rare that it does not need to be controlled.
This Republican measure is completely political.
Oh wow -you mean the foxes are guarding the hen house and declared it "safe"? LOL Any clue about the political leanings of those who actually POPULATE our government agencies that would have been tasked with that investigation? The political appointees of government agencies come and go -but NOT those who are government employees. And they are largely of one political stripe.
None of your rights under the Bill of Rights is more important than another right and government does NOT get to decide some are less important than others. The value any given right has to YOU is one YOU make and is your sole right to decide. But you never get to make it for ANYONE ELSE. That means insisting we all pretend the right to vote is far more important than the right to own a gun for example -is bullshit. Some people in this country who have a right to vote NEVER vote -so it isn't too important to THEM. Likewise some people with a right to own a gun will choose to never exercise that right as well. The value of any right is made by the individual but ONLY for him/herself -they have no right to make it for OTHERS. (And why does the left pretend like voters don't have the civic duty to actually know the details of what they are voting ON in the first place? Dragging someone out to vote who decided the election didn't matter to him isn't doing anyone a favor -but those who think that is a person who can be manipulated and INSTRUCTED how to vote. As some volunteer and very liberal poll workers did with the elderly at a nearby nursing home last year -right down to instructing them who to vote for! Similar complaints were lodged in several Florida precincts in several elections about those volunteer and very liberal drivers offering to bus entire nursing homes to the polls, and then instructing them on who they were supposed to vote for. Nothing like manipulating and exploiting the vulnerable for political gain, is there? And hey, its being done for all the right reasons, right? One of those special "rights" leftwing extremists think they have seeing as how they are all just so......noble-y and all. lol)
Government has NO business pretending your right to vote is more important than your right to bear arms.
1. If it isn't infringing on ANYONE'S ability to exercise their 2nd amendment right including those identical minorities, to provide a valid ID in order to buy a gun - it sure as hell isn't infringing on anyone's right to vote to produce a valid ID either! PERIOD! One right is NOT more important than another.
2. If the process itself has been perverted and undermined and the doors thrown open to fraud and therefore the confidence of the AMERICAN citizens in their own system is being seriously eroded -then what is it leftwing extremists are REALLY "protecting" here with their bullshit?
Where are the studies showing a direct correlation between one's skin color, ethnic heritage, sexual orientation or gender with a legitimate inability to get a valid ID? There are none because it isn't true -this is a false RACIST claim by the left, based on nothing real but are clearly saying AGAIN that minorities are stupid, easily manipulated and dumb cows who, even they must produce valid ID to get state and federal entitlements - can't possibly know where that ID is when it comes to voting!
There are no studies showing any correlation of ANY kind between AMERICAN CITIZEN minorities and their ability/inability to get any of the numerous forms of identification accepted as valid ID -because that correlation DOESN'T EXIST! The ones who have a hard time getting valid ID in this country -are those who have no right to even be here and therefore no right to vote either.
The left's opposition to protecting the integrity of our elections is NOT about "protecting" any US citizen with a right to vote -because it protects NO legitimate voter to leave their vote open to being undermined by the next guy with no right to vote. Those they PRETEND are less likely to get it due to poverty or whatever -are the same people who must get one in order to get food stamps, welfare and Medicaid -all US citizens too and every single one had to produce a valid ID in order to get it.
How DID they manage THAT -but can't possibly be expected to manage producing that identical ID to vote? The entire leftist' ploy here has nothing to do with protecting LEGITIMATE voters in the first place -and everyone knows it is a hollow, false one that is NOT based in reality WHATSOEVER.
This is not only trying to make it easier for those who have no right to vote to do so in order to harm those who really do have a right to vote -and they want to do that because their real agenda is to undermine Americans' confidence in their own system -because the left believes THEY benefit by doing that. That is a WELL KNOWN political ploy of leftwing extremists from Marx to Lenin to Saul Alinksy to Obama buddy Van Jones -undermine the faith of the people in their own elections and they become easier to MANIPULATE for their OWN political gain. Easier to create chaos, social unrest and uncertainty. When that happens, the people get upset and concerned -but the best part as far as leftwing extremists are concerned is that people start demanding government DO something about it. Which throws open the door to government just taking new powers it never had and intends to never relinquish.
3. A people confident in their own system and their own power to affect their future will never beg government to just TAKE powers it doesn't have. People have to be carefully groomed, indoctrinated -and finally manipulated to BEG leftwing extremists to take it. Fortunately they can always counts on their ranks of useful idiots to start chanting about how minorities don't get IDs in this country so can't possibly be expected to have one and gnash their teeth about all the.....CONCERN they have about whether minorities aren't being DISCRIMINATED against when they try to exercise THIS right. Even though they don't give a flying **** about whether it hampers the ability of minorities when it comes to exercising another right. PHONY FUCKERS -the lot of 'em. It isn't about protecting legitimate voters with a right to vote -it is all about protecting fraud and helping undermine the faith and confidence AMERICANS have in their own system.
Doubt that? Read ANY of the speeches, works, books, papers by leftwing extremists going back decades -it isn't exactly a well hidden, secret plot.
Obviously, she is not going to be the only person in the entire country to have a problem getting a voter ID even though she had the right paperwork. Are you completely incapable of drawing reasonable conclusions?
