    Some view this new wave of stricter voter identification laws as a tactic to dampen voter turnout of groups more prone to cast ballots in favor of Democratic candidates. There may a short term goal of suppressing a certain voting block for the 2012 election, but this restrictive voter ID law trend reaches back into an ugly past where women, African American and the poor were not allowed to vote.

    The problem with this lie is that everyone will be allowed to vote.

    There is no insurmountable literacy test or poll tax that minorities cannot pay.

    Just present a picture ID at the polling place and every registered voter can vote.

    We all (men, women, blacks, browns & poor people) must have a picture ID to get into a political fundraiser, but not to vote.

    Democrats are morons. Click my signature line to see how many more days we have to put up with this nonsense.

    I must have missed it.

    Where did the O.P. make the argument, share any facts, or give any reason why women, minorities, and the poor would have a harder time voting? Is this another one of those left wing thread titles that are a total lie?

    Your Liberals really need to stop lying and attempting the scare tactics. You just end up losing all credibility and looking stupid.

    I actually took the time to read the bullcrap blog post this thread is based on. It failed to make the argument and in fact only offered a false strawman. Grow up Democrats, we are all tired of being lied to by you people. Quit the scare tactics... only a moron would buy what you are selling.

    It is implicit... you must learn to read between the lines... it will prevent women (illegal aliens), minorities (illegal aliens), and the poor (illegal aliens) from voting democratic.

    This thread fails to meet the standards to be on this forum.

    1. There is no original words shared by the OP. It is a cut and paste from the worthless blog which it references.
    2. The blog is a pure opinion piece based on nothing more than a weak straw man.

    I hope it gets deleted when the mods do their job.

    All of that plus it disenfranchises dead people and convicted criminals who wish to vote for Der Furher.

    In their made-up arguments designed to throw the public off their malodorous voter fraud scent...

    I wonder if arrogant progressive leftist elites...or their indoctrinated, dull-eyed boots on the ground...
    have yet realized that they're condescendingly looking down their noses at blacks, women and other minorities...
    to essentially inform them that they're too (*)(*)(*)(*)ing helpless and stupid to acquire photo ID?

    I also wonder...with the reletively new development and increasing saturation of "new media"...
    and the crumbling credibility of blatantly complicit liberal alphabet press....

    how long self-respecting, individual blacks, women and other minorities will continue to let progressive leftists corral them into groups to paint them all in that less than flattering light?

    I am against the culture that is created where we are all suspects of wrong doing before we do wrong. Take that however you choose to take it.

    Voter ID will not prevent the poor, blacks, or African-Americans from voting.

    Voter ID will suppress voting by dead people, ineligible voters, and Mickey Mouse. These have been staunch Democrat blocs in the past.

    That's the funny part. How could people vote for others who are literally telling them they're too stupid to get something for free? Or, they're too stupid to obtain what the vast majority of Americans don't see as difficult. The only people who would vote for those disrespecting them right to the faces really must be as stupid as they're being portrayed. How sad.

    Dogs.. don't forget dogs. Saw a story this weekend about voters registration cards being issued to dogs. I guess if Fido can get credit cards, he can vote for a Democrat, huh?

    *woof woof*

    Oh my God! Women, minorities and po' folks are under attack!
    Don't forget to include gays, albinos, hemopheliacs and Free Masons.
    Is this absurd enough for you? Your thread is certainly absurd enough for me and who is D.T. Pollard and why is spewing out such nonsense?
    If you can't prove you are who you say you are then it's voting itself that becomes disinfranchised. Who is "frightened" by the prospect of having an i.d.?

    Are you really that disingenuous?

    No matter how many indignant grannies the ACLU trots out it is a very simple matter to get a voter i.d. in Pennsylvania. What does Viviette Applewhite need to get an i.d.? A social security number (it's impossible to believe she does not have one) and proof of residency (I assume she lives somewhere) and $13.50! Cut the b.s.

    Oh, okay. Like what? Perhaps you can elaborate instead of using terse three word posts. It saves time, you know.

    just watch the video

    "When Applewhite sought a new photo ID to comply with the law, she requested a copy of her birth certificate. But because it contains her maiden name, Brooks, it did not help."

    Yes. I read that. She has a marriage license then, or access to a record of her marriage and name change.
    It's so very simple but I guess any bar is too high when you don't wish to comply to suit your political biases.

    but you didn't watch the video did you?


    maybe she does, maybe she doesn't


    it's you that's being politically biased

    many thousands of pennsylvanians don't even realize there's a new voter id law

    history, as well as current events make it clear that this kind of law is discriminatory
