Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. claims Jim Crow is returning. In a recent speech, Mr. Holder said that attempts by states to pass voter identification laws will disenfranchise minorities, rolling back the clock to the evil days of segregation. He said that a growing number of minorities fear that the same disparities, divisions and problems now afflict America as they did in 1965 prior to the Voting Rights Act. According to the Obama administration, our democracy is being threatened by racist Republicans. Hence, the Justice Department must prevent laws requiring a photo ID to vote from being enacted.
Mr. Holder argues that voter ID laws disproportionately discriminate against poor blacks and Hispanics - citizens who cannot afford to acquire a drivers license, passport or other form of photo identification. The latest victim is South Carolina; its voter ID law has been blocked by the Justice Department. Liberal Democrats - taking their cue from the White House - are portraying the national movement for election reform as an authoritarian assault upon civil liberties. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has even petitioned the United Nations, asking it to declare states voter ID laws human rights abuses. For the radical left, America has become Vladimir Putins Russia.....

Why don't we strive to do BOTH... IDIOT (or liberal/progressive lurker)?
Refer to post 19 - the guy states it well as to why we should elect a RINO to oust Obama.
Obama has lost to many powerful backers to win,all he has are the unions and Soros and both are disliked by most.
So we`re to believe these people, who will always seem to eke by with enough $ left over for cigarettes, beer and tattoos, somehow can`t put a few pennies aside each day to save up for the costs of an ID?
Wow, Holder.. that says volumes about “your people,” no?
if Holder is afraid that poor people cnt afford photo IDs then put their photos on their EBT cards. Problem solved. Unless poor people dont want EBT....hahahahahaha
Considering all Obama has to do is herd the sheep into believing he`s appearing to be making progress, and that he and ONLY he can save the masses from disease and starvation... yeah, I`d agree he has the upper hand.
And the sad part of that is.. the Republican establishment doesn`t seem interested in taking the fight to him.
It’s highly likely Omuslim will steal the election- just as he did in 2008.
He already has a billion and expect the illegal overseas donations again.
Massive voter fraud here will continue.
The commie Muzzie loving MSM is still in his back pocket.
Don’t expect them to let the commie coup they pulled off slip through their fingers.
This will be the dirtiest election fight in the history of the United States.
There are only 4 reasons you would not have a picture ID.
You are an illegal alien.
You are hiding from the law.
You cannot prove your identity.
You are planning to deceive.
Nothing else
Zero tolerance for voter fraud should be the law of the land. You get tied to a fraudulent vote; you go to jail.
Obama won’t have to steal it if the GOP masses select Romney as they are being told to do so by the MSM and Fox News.
We have CNN blatantly pushing Ron Paul to run as a third party candidate, the Republican establishment deciding that going after Obama and or his record isn’t ‘nice’...see Fox for instance, three talking heads on a couch all saying that it’s not really fair. Obama has now blamed everything on congress and Bush. Nothing that goes on in DC is his fault. All this and voter intimidation plus fraud to the eyeballs. Well, there’s always martial law. He can postpone elections ‘til heck freezes over. I’ll bet everything’s on the table. How can he lose.
