Is the Repub. party so afraid of blacks that 4 years later they're still crying about the actions of 2 of them  |
You don't pay attention very well, Paul. I never said "massive voter fraud", you did. You also said "almost zero voter fraud". There were hundreds of arrests for voter fraud resulting from the 2008 elections. That's far from almost zero. And that's just arrests, not instances of fraud or voter intimidation, which is considered fraud.
You still can't come up with an argument about the ID issue. Why is making it a requirement to show an ID for one thing ok but not for something else? The only reason someone wouldn't want to show one is if they aren't who they say they are.
By the way, do you realize that polls show that 75% of voters agrre that an ID should be required? I don't think Eric Holder was one of the respondents to the poll, though.
And how does limiting the time to vote early prevent people from voting? What would be an acceptable time limit for you? If someone wants to vote, there are ways to do it. Men and women serving overseas for our military seem to get their ballots in on time. Well, they get them in when the MOVE act isn't violated.
