Members of the Democratic Congressional Black Caucus on Monday charged that voter ID laws are intended at preventing blacks from voting and are specifically aimed at defeating Barack Obama.
“It is clear to me that whether racially based or not, this is a direct attempt, not only to undermine the election process, but a specific attempt to derail what surely would be and ought to be the re-election of Barack Obama,” Rep. Donna Christensen (D-VI) said on the floor.
So, according to these Democratic elected officials, blacks are either too stupid to carry ID, or are all criminals who fear being identified. What bigotry.
Or maybe these Democratic elected officials simply want to maintain the possibility of voter fraud.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

“Or maybe these Democratic elected officials simply want to maintain the possibility of voter fraud.” BINGO ! !
Considering we have to show some form of ID to get on a plane, or if a policeman pulls you over while driving, and a whole host of other situations, why is it so much to ask that we show ID to vote? Voting is one of our most precious rights – and ensuring that elections are fair & valid would seem to be at the top of the list of priorities to ensure we really have a gov’t of, by & for the people. The argument that it’s just too difficult or puts an undue burden on certain classes of people doesn’t hold water – most (if not ALL) the states that want voter ID laws say they will provide one free of charge if the voter doesn’t already have a driver’s license or other valid ID.
