It’s time to make sure the candidates who run as Repubilicans are really REPUBLICAN and not RINOs……voter ID is a necessity…I watched as at least two people voted in 2008 who had absolutely no business voting in our county. I sincerely believe they had been sent by ACORN. Both had moved to another location (one out of state)but they retained their voter registration cards, which gave them permission to vote. The voter registration should be a chip on the Driver’s License or State ID card, which when swiped through a voting machine would bring up ONLY the precinct this person can vote in, and if he has already voted, would not allow him to vote again. And what do you expect of the four “legislators” mentioned? They need to be voted OUT of office.

So, Pat, if I’m getting you correctly, you don’t deny that voter fraud is taking place, and you don’t have a problem with people showing ID to vote to prevent this from taking place, but you just don’t believe any election outcomes have been changed by violators. If that’s accurate, then that’s good to know. You support a Republican position that is in opposition to the views of the Democrats. Who would have thought?

As for the Black Panthers in Philly, don’t play dumb. You know exactly what that’s all about. I can’t speak to what Hans thinks he saw on CNN, but anyone even remotely involved in politics knows the Philly case that Holder punted. It’s gonna come back to bite him, and maybe Barry. And you know all about it.

Hans, sounds solid. You think you were remember seeing something on CNN. And some nonsense about “Black Panthers.” Yeah, solid.

No, actually I don’t have a problem with proving who you are. I do have a problem with the excuse Republicans make that they lose elections because of voter fraud, which doesn’t happen in any real way. My point: Grow up.

The biggest thing that is left out here, is that there are some Senators that just don’t believe it’s fair to sit someone down (which is how you stop a filibuster) on just one day’s debate. The Republicans used a rule maneuver to get the bill on special order, so it could be taken up immediately. For FITS to suggest that one day of debate kills a bill is inaccurate. To suggest that above name Senators are opposed is inaccurate. Maybe what they should be congratulated on is collegeiatlity and statesmanship, by letting people be heard….something that is sorely missing in today’s arena, primarily from the likes of sites like this and left leaning media as well.

You have to have a photo ID to get a decent job and they would prefer a drivers license. You need a photo ID to buy beer, cigarettes and cash a check at the bank (unless your an illegal,) so what’s the big deal?

Pat,
I watched election 2008 live on CNN. I distinctly recall a joyous man excitedly jabbering to the CNN commentator at a polling location in inner city Cleveland, Ohio, that he had voted for Obama “six times already” and that he “was going to vote a few more times…”

The sheepish commentator then added that such voting behavior was “probably wrong…” The guy then giggled and went back to the voting line. No investigation. No further commentary by CNN.

I’ve also seen clips of two Black Panther members dressed in para-military garb weilding batons at a polling location in Philly repeatedly warning white voters that “it’s a black man’s world now…” Desite photographic evidence of undeniable voter intimidation, Obama Justice refuses to charge both Panthers.

Incidentally, Pat, can you provide any documentation to suggest that photo id discriminates against anyone? I believe all AMERICANS deserve to know that their vote counts and that the process has complete integrity and accountability. Photo Id provides additonal integrity to the process.

Wes you are smacking Will around like he smacked his girlfriend. FITS panders to ignorant morons with false and misleading posts. What’s funny is how many SAPS lap up his drivel like it’s the word of God. They get their blood pressure up and soil their confederate underwear. Of course there are some senators who kiss Will’s ass and make him feel like he’s somebody. Perhaps Senator Bright, who enjoys being referred to in this website as one the “good guys” (in the greatest perversion of that phrase ever uttered) is the mysterious texter?

Hey larrie,
Can provide you provide an instance of voter fraud? Bush and the Republican congress tasked the Justice Department with hunting down this wide-spread voter fraud and have so far caught 87 people, almost all paid for by local politicians in West Virginia and Kentucky. Even ACORN, the boogeyman of the right, has no convictions.

Come up with some ideas and win elections – it shouldn’t be hard with Harry Reid on the other side.

“The Senate debated this bill for just one day. It’s far from dead.”

Wesley,

Time will tell if you are being honest or if you are just a fraud, like so many others in your line of work.
