obama and holder are saying minorities are too stupid to obtain ID. Not only that, they are saying they're too stupid and inept to hold a job, cash a welfare check, cash any check, have a charge card, bank account, get a drink, buy a gun, board an airplane, go to a doctor's office, get a prescription, have a library card, get a driver's license, collect unemployment, get a refund from a store, etc.. Do minorities actually understand what is being said about them by the dems? Apparently they don't, since they buy into this crud.

Why should illegals care what is legitimate? All of the above they do without our help! As long as the government puts the cloak around their activities, why should they care? Evidently they have no national pride and caring. It's up to us to keep the people we come in contact with in the know as to what is really happening. Sit watching the NBC, ABC, CNN's and see how really informed you are.

I'm not sure they do buy into this crud. However much the liberal lobbyists keep pushing it there are probably a lot of minorities who feel their intelligence is being insulted. Hopefully it'll make them think twice about voting for the pandering Obama.

I don't have a lot of hope that the majority of minorities (there's a phrase for you) will rethink their votes for Obama, but I do believe a lot of them will switch this time.

"I would think minorities would be offended at the suggestion that laws requiring them to prove their identity as a prerequisite to voting would somehow disadvantage them. I would think they would have every bit as much interest in ensuring fair, fraud-free elections as non-minorities." (from the Limbaugh column)

Well I talked to an honest old gent on the bus and he says when the Republicans get into office "things get a little tight".

Can anyone think of an innocuous reason that President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder oppose state voter ID laws?

Obama and Holder appear to view almost everything through the prism of race or, at the very least, use race as an excuse to justify otherwise very dubious policies, from immigration enforcement to voter intimidation actions to strong-arming banks to make loans via allegations of racism.

In December, along these lines, Holder criticized redistricting maps that had been drawn by the Texas Legislature and used the opportunity to call for an aggressive federal review of voter identification...
