“Small poke in the eye for ACORN and the Southern Poverty Law Center.”

Yeah I know. God forbid that you have to show a photo ID when you vote... Thats, thats RACIST!

Yet on the flip side, you have to show an ID to cash a check, pick up a perscription, buy alcohol and cigarettes, get on an airplane, use a credit card, drive a car, get into a bar or night club, etc.

Does this mean the DOJ order that said the state of GA had to quit cleaning its voter roles is void?

You realize of course that this won’t stop them, nothing
stops them.
They will wait till near election time to stage protests, file appeals, muck up the works and create doubt in the
legitimacy of the elections.

It’s how they do it.

The move on Monday means a January 2009 ruling by a three-judge panel of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold the state's photo ID law is final.

The amateurs at the DOJ think they have control power over the SCOTUS...Guess they're in for some learnin!

You need ID for:
Buying a car
Buying alcohol
Buying tobacco products
Viewing an ‘R’ rated film
Buying cough syrup
Picking up an order placed online and picked up at a brick and mortar location
BUT, IT’S UNCONSTITUTIONAL TO SHOW ID TO VOTE? Liberals are the filth, scum and vermin of the universe. Good God in Heaven, please bless us! This is at least a small victory for the ‘Right’ side.

So the next step is for states not within the 11th Circuit to pass the same law.

It’s hilarious to listen to them argue, “It’s a financial burden for minorities to have to obtain an ID.”

So, why can’t their neighborhood ACORN organizer help them get it?

The Obama Administration gets its second slap-down from SCOTUS this week. Excellent.

In Georgia, you also need an ID to buy spray paint.

Holder attempt failed...It’s just another example of his ineptness. (Indiana/Chrystler/RuthG is another....We need to keep track of them for the MSM and publish them regularly for FOX to find.
