Again today, I hear the cry over how terrible some states are to ask people who want to vote to produce a picture ID. The MLK holiday was yesterday and it produced the perfect opportunity for democrats, who constantly whine about disfranchisement, to once again bring up this pet peeve and then use all sorts of excuses in an attempt to persuade the public that liberals are unable to comply with a Photo ID law. Why is having to produce this form of identification such a thorn in the side of liberals? I will tell you why liberals love to hate this issue of photo IDs. First it gives liberal democrats a cause to beat up on Republicans because they can whine disfranchisement, and then the second and often the main reason is it takes the attention away from Obama and his terrible record on the economy and Americas standing in the world.
Since Dems constantly claim the cost of getting something as complicated as a photo Id is simply out of reach for liberals. This requirement of an ID with picture is just much too intricate an operation to have poor liberals go about obtaining this insensible photo ID document. Either way my bitch about this says if an illegal voter pulls the lever then at that very instant, they cancel out the vote of a legal voter. To me that is the same thing as stealing a vote from someone who has the legal right to vote, and this is it, nothing more complicated than that. It is easy to understand. As many ways and methods as there are available for people to get a legal ID it does not make sense to say it is racist or prejudicial to require voters to have and to produce a valid photo ID when they go to vote. Quite often states are even willing to help and many states offer free IDs and the voters who cannot produce a photo ID will still be allowed to vote but they will vote on a provisional ballot. This means once the states verify the person their vote is counted and nobody is disfranchised regardless of how much the Democrats whine over the issue.
