BREITBART.COM reports:
One of the left's sillier temper tantrums is the fight against Voter ID laws. The law simply requires that a voter present a photo ID at the polling place, as a means to verify they are who they say they are. It is almost impossible to navigate daily life without a photo ID, yet the left argues that this burden is uniquely onerous. In their worldview, a person should be able to walk into the voting place, state a name and then vote without any verification the person is, in fact, that name. Fortunately, the American people loudly disagree.

Any place where you use Credit card, you will be asked for your picture ID. I can keep on writing still more, but you get the idea the importance of having an ID in US. The first thing most people ask is “can I have a look at your picture ID ?”. You better have one when someone asks for it.
Don't like it. Too bad. Don't like my opinion. Oh well.
Have a good night, this will be my last reply. Feel free to get in another dig, as I said, it doesn't matter.
You have no pockets?
You can't afford a paper clip to attach your ID to the sample ballot?
It's not about pockets, paper clips or money.
What about absentee ballots, how will they show their ID?
People have to sign their absentee ballot under penalty of perjury and face felony charges with stiff penalties if caught.
There's no way to track people who merely come into a polling place, recite a name & address and receive a ballot.
I don't believe signing a 'sticker' carries any legal significance.
For instance, some guy walked into a DC procinct, gave AG - Eric Holder's name and address and was given a ballot. He handed it back and left but just as easily could have filled the thing out and deposited it in the box.
Without verifying his ID, there would have been no way of knowing who had signed the registry and who was given the ballot.
Requiring a govt. issued picture ID makes the system as foolproof and legitimate as possible. If it didn't work, we wouldn't require it for 100 other daily functions and allow people to board airplanes in the honor system.
If you walk into my polling place with no ID, you will be walking out without voting. It has been that way for at least 30 years.
Additionally, there should be a grand-father clause to protect the rights of older persons such as World War II veterans, many of whom were born without birth certificates to prove citizenship.
Ask me about a nationalized ID, though, and I'll give you a different answer.
Then I came across that vid on YouTube where a Democrat was caught on tape telling illegals they did NOT need papers, ID, nothing to VOTE.
Now this is one stellar Democrat...further "highlights" in her life: 2004 general election
Busby ran against then-Rep. Duke Cunningham in the 2004 U.S. House election, receiving 37% of the vote to Cunningham's 58%. Cunningham later resigned on November 28, 2005, after pleading guilty to federal charges of conspiracy to commit bribery, mail fraud, wire fraud, and tax evasion.
There are several more meaningless activities requiring identification than one as important as voting.
i.e. - taking vacation on a cruise ship while remaining in US territory.
- gaining admission into various locations.
- purchasing over-the-counter cough medicine.
Its a pity we are always looking for ways to exclude people rather than doing as Australia does an embrace all its citizens. There they want to know why you didn't vote and with a voter turn out consistently close to 100% of the adult population few need to!
Personally I have a driver's licence, birth certificate and passport and find it hard to understand the circumstances of some, who for some reason don't have them, some state that their births were not registered due to home birthing, some are too poor to travel interstate to get the documentation required for the new ID from home states.
Arse-Whole it beats me!
What a contrast is Australia where they insist on all citizens voting and its compulsory to registered on your 18th birthday!
Hang in there sunshine.....the little white truck will be along shortly.
