We MUST have photo I.D., we must. If it is such a burdon to pay for a birth certificate to get a free I.D. then maybe they can skip their fast food pickups for a few weeks!!

The ‘dims’ want those dead voters.

Even better...lets implant chips(or tattooed bar codes) in the hand and forehead for ID purposes....
Sorry I’m a jerk and I just couldn’t help myself.

If you would like I will tattoo yours on your forehead

Whatever it takes to stop this massive invasion of our soverign border is just fine with this kid. Count on it....

Pretty good news I just heard from Gov Blunt’s office. He ordered the State Police to look into the prison population in MO and identify any that are illegal aliens....Its bearing fruit, they’ve id’d several hundred already. The bad news is that they have to hand them over to the Feds. If they aren’t disposed of before the next election they’ll probably just get released here again.

Voter ID is that proverbial idea whose time has come-—nothing can stop it.

WalMart or K Mart should get into making these-—for a small fee they would get lots of people into their stores.

That sounds like a good idea but how would they go about verifying people? [probably as well as the government does, lol].

[Liz]

............how would they go about verifying people..................

FIVE-PROOFS SYSTEM: Utility bill, property tax bill (if homeowner), IRS return, driver's license, paycheck stub, passport, bank statement, auto insurance card (where compulsory) .... five must match.

Thanks, yes I’ve read that before and forgot. Hope they would keep good records so those same papers couldn’t be passed to others.

Lol, I’m an artist, I read politics and promptly forget the details!!

“But the Missouri Supreme Court struck down the photo ID requirement as an unconstitutional burden on voting rights.” Only “legal minds”, could come to that laughably ridiculous, anti-real world conclusion.

Yeah....I think the next time I go through a traffic stop I'll tell the cop that I don't have a photo ID drivers license as it is an "unconstitutional burden on my driving privilages"....

I still say a social security card with a magnetic validation strip built in should be required when voting. It's a piece of ID every legit American SHOULD have, and it is also long passed due for that card to be updated and have security features added to weed out all the fake ones out there. When people vote, swipe the card. it can be instantly validated and would prevent anyone from voting twice in a different state.

Naw....the would be too easy and make too much sense....

If only the govt would use a good data mining system---they could immediately find duplicates and toss out the fakes.

I doubt its any different in Indiana.... I’ll bet you have to pay for the birth certificate here too.
