Fraud Daylight

Elections: The Supreme Court got it right Monday in ruling 6-3 (with even liberal John Paul Stevens agreeing) that states are free to require voters to produce photo identification at the polls.

Everyone in the country should be pleased with the news. But, of course, not everyone is. It's almost as if some are disturbed that the ruling will make it harder to commit voter fraud.

The American Civil Liberties Union, for instance. It was the ACLU's suit against the state of Indiana over its requirement that voters need to produce a photo ID at the polls that led to the Supreme Court case.

Ken Falk, the organization's Indiana legal director, said he was "extremely disappointed" by the decision. It is the position of the ACLU that ID laws place a burden on voters, and the right to vote, Falk says, "is the most important right."

The right to vote cannot be found in the Constitution, so we're not sure from what source Falk is drawing his legal opinion. Best we can tell, voting is a privilege. Important, yes, but it's far more important that our elections are free — or as free as possible — of fraud.

Democrats still nursing their wounds from the 2000 presidential election mess — which they engineered when they brought in the lawyers — should be the first ones demanding legitimate elections. But they're not.

Now if we can add a provision for inked stained fingers for each voter, we might have some real progress. I can see these issues becoming state initiatives for the voters in the near future because the Dem legislators won’t let most states pass these bills.

Which three morons voted it was unconstitutional to require ID? Ginsberg, Souter? Just guessing.

Oregon has pure vote (fraud) by mail. Washington seeing how well it’s worked to turn a fragile balance into a Dem bastion is implementing it too, even though the law doesn’t require it. County Clerks have an “option” to run elections that way, so they do.

When I was getting my license 1/2 the people there were using all sorts of bizzare foreign docs to show who they were. They were all asked if they had filled out the voter card. The idiots at the DMV didn’t even bother to mention “if you are a citizen”.

So motor voter has done it’s work here in the NW and the elections are full of fraud. We demonstrated this in the last Gov. election, but we still ended up with the socialist bitch who stole it, not the legitimate winner.

Voting is getting to be a waste of time.

I guess the Supremes are going to stop playing straight man to the ACLU’s jokes.
