NAACP Requires Photo I.D. to See Holder Speak in State Being Sued Over Voter ID
townhall.com ^ | July 10, 2012 | Katie Pavlich

Earlier today, Attorney General Eric Holder addressed the NAACP Nation Convention at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. What did media need in order to attend? That's right, government issued photo identification (and a second form of identification too!), something both Holder and the NAACP stand firmly against when it comes to voting. Holder's DOJ is currently suing Texas for "discriminatory" voter ID laws. From the press release:

"All media must present government-issued photo I.D. (such as a driver’s license) as well as valid media credentials. Members of the media must RSVP to receive press credentials at http://action.naacp.org/page/s/registration. For security purposes, media check-in and equipment set up must be completed by 7:45 a.m. CDT for an 8:00 a.m. CDT security sweep. Once the security sweep is completed, additional media equipment will NOT be permitted to enter and swept equipment will NOT be permitted to exit."

But Mr. Holder I don't have a photo ID.
It is RACIST to make me have one.

They only need an id when it helps them, of course i have seen Dem poll watchers ask for id’s in districts where they can try and throw out republican voters.

and of course legitimate people should never have a problem with an id proving who they are. I certainly have no problems saying “this is me”. Generally if someone wont provide an id, its because they have something to hide.

It’s amazing isn’t it?

What if a poor mexican from waaaaaaaaaaay out in west Texas wanted to see the “dog and pony show and didn’t have a photo ID?

That raises a MAJOR question: No matter where they live and whatever their income level is, they are INSTANTLY ready to receive welfare bennies....and that means they physically have to go to a government office somewhere in their area to apply.

How come they can do that but to go and get a free ID from the Texas DPS is “impossible” and poses a major hardship on them? Seems like an absolute lie doesn’t it.

Graft and corruption is the means the Democrat party has garnered power and it will continue on unless we do get physical picture IDs issued by a governmental agency.

Solution to the problem: Hold their welfare checks until they come into town to pick them up.....and only after they have a brand new ID card issued by the state.

Well, this idiot DOES hold himself above all US laws and thinks of himself as second only to his one, true, god-—obama.

Pointing out their hypocrisy doesn’t do much.
They feel no shame. They only see the agenda.

The agenda is advanced by vote fraud.

The agenda is advanced by protecting Holder.

They don’t even see it AS “hypocrisy”.

KLBJ in Austin is talking about this issue today. There was an 18 year old Hispanic girl from San Antonio who testified at the trial in DC yesterday who said she had no official ID to vote.

If that is the case, what kind of ID did she use to get onto a plane or bus to get to DC to testify? I don't think she walked there from San Antonio, TX.

"Pointing out their hypocrisy doesn’t do much. They feel no shame. They only see the agenda."

Yep. All that matters is making big scenes and staging sob stories, in order to sucker non-thinking types- and then once the leftists get what they want and grab even more power, they move onto the next thing they want to control.

MUSICAL MEMORIES - "Shoulder to Shoulder Against Eric Holder"
(From the Operetta "New Moon" by Sigmund Romberg as sung by Nelson Eddy)

Give me some men who are stout-hearted men
Who will fight for the vote they adore
Start me with ten who are stout-hearted men
And I'll soon give you ten thousand more
Shoulder to shoulder
And bolder and bolder
(Screw you, Eric Holder)
We'll grow as we go to the fore
Then there's nothing in the world can halt or mar a plan
When stout-hearted men stick together to stick it to this man

Leni

Well, you're in FINE tune this A.M., as usual.

It's a crime that so many sleepy citizens ignored the wetbacks lining up for their ID cards, being issued by the Bank of America in the 90’a. It was the camel's nose under the tent. I'd love to know how much $$ the banks made on all those wire transfers of US Dollars to Mexico.
