The Supremes Uphold Voter ID Regulations
Can't wait to see what the liberals pundits will be saying now. Granted that their understanding of the law is piss poor, but Obama, the Acorns, and the others will cry that voters will be disenfranchised because they are required to present ID at the ballots showing that they are who they say they are ... i.e., thus preventing voter fraud.
The Supreme Court's decision yesterday essentially says that ID requirements are per se constitutional and legal. And who wrote the majority opinion? None other than Justice Stevens, the liberal icon.
But of Course Justice Stevens being from Chicago has seen voter fraud from the 1st row under the Daley era.
Interesting as well is Justice Breyer's dissent. Who notes that while he had misgivings about the Indiana law, no such misgivings existed under Florida's law, which he cited as the perfect example of how a voter id system should be implemented. So don't even bother folks on challenging Florida's law; you have at least seven votes upholding that one.
I've worked the polls for the last three election and but for the existence of poll watchers and law abiding election officials (at least at the polls I've been too), it is very easy for voter fraud to be committed, especially with electronic voting which is now a thing of the past. But I have seen first hand how organizations like ACORN work at gathering purported new voters. Obama and the ACORN folks fought heavily to overturn the Indiana law for they feel voter fraud is just collateral damage. Well I don't and now the Supreme Court says the same.
Thank you Justice Stevens.
An interesting piece by John Fund on the case here.
Or you can read the Court's opinion here.

I don't know what the big deal is. Have the voter's registration card with a picture on it. God Puerto Rico has always done it that way.

Amen and amen.
Even Stevens (gasp!) signed on to this. By the way, as the election nears, watch for the young misguided Acorns walking the sidewalks in downtown Miami signing up people to vote ..... they recruit college kids with backpacks and clipboards and park them across the street from Macy's. Sweet and ignorant.

It's just so unfair, Do you realize how much money it's going to cost the Democrats to buy photo IDs for all those dead people?

Heard some clips of Wright making fun of how white people speak this a.m. He hates white people a lot more than he loves Jesus.
