My comments actually fit in two active threads but I will put them here...
The voter ID thing goes hand-in-hand with the new illegal immigrant situation. Basically in two strokes, this administration has guaranteed itself votes from the entire illegal population.
Deferring their deportation gives them a reason to want to keep him in office...
Allowing voting without ID gives them a way to do it...
Not only will the young illegals that the new rules benefit be voting for 'Bama, their 10 million parents who brought them here illegally will too.
Bada-bing, we have been swindled. Again.
