Actually I see no problem with this as long as they really accept photo IDs and don’t just limit meetings to Dimwit voters. If they run this correctly then they would not be able to bus in Unions thugs. However, we know what will happen don’t we? They will reject anyone who is not on their list of dimwit voters.

I am not as bothered by this as some here. The whole point of putting these reps' feet to the fire is to let them see what they will face on election day if they pass Death-care. If I were to show up, I pose no threat to Green because I am not in his district.

I do agree it is funny that Green and all the 'rats oppose voter I.D.s, but, hey, they're 'rats.

Not according to Hillery!!! Hah!

We all should have this memorized and use it at every chance it is needed:

"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration."
