Create?? I ain't creating nothing, just asked a question and you went into your liberal apoplexy. Chill out dude, before you stroke out. With vagrancy laws and all, I know you can be detained for not providing proof of ID. I'd like to see you get on base without showing ID.

I never met your grandmother. How would I know the person who said she was her, really was? Should we let someone who said they were her vote?

She does sound like a good, industrious woman. She also sounds like the type would not whine about it, she would have gone and got the ID and voted.

Pretty easy for her to take a copy of the deed to her house, or her utility bills, register under penalty of law, and "oh by the way", have them look at her registration for the past 50 years. YUP! By George I think you're catching on!

The bottom line is that this is going to impact the elderly, the sick, the medically handicapped, women who get married and changed their names less than 90 days prior an election, folks that don't drive, etc Only if their family, church, senior center doesn't have a way to take them to the County Election board to register to vote. Most churches take non-driving Senior on trips, to stores, doctors/dental/vision appointments, etc. Funny how liberal hysteria always runs headlong into fact and reason.

Can't wait for the wailing when your taxes are raised to pay for these "free" ID cards.PSST - there is a reason they are free to the elderly or disabled

Somehow, Democracy survived with hand counted paper ballots, and no photo ID requirement for a couple hundred years.

Funny how this suddenly becomes an issue when Republicans are desperately trying to maintain any semblance of relevance in this country.It should be an issue to every American not willing to let illegals, criminals or the dead vote!

It doesn't really matter though. There is going to be such an anti "wingnut-RepublicanDemocrats" tsunami this November, that all the dead, illegal and criminal votersvoter suppression tricks in the book won't be able to save their sorry a$$es.Fixed it for ya, Skippy

We're talking "permanent minority status"!

What a rediculous statement. Heck, the Supreme Court that upheld this "voter suppression law" even stated that there was no evidence, and not one example of voter fraud in Indiana.
So what? Seems they are just taking steps to ensure it stays that way.

It was a law written to address a non-existent problem.
Non-existent for now anyway.

It's nothing but "voter suppression", but that is expected. Conservative know that the only way they have a snowballs chance in hell of achieving and staying in power is IF LESS PEOPLE VOTE.
A little proof of that statement would be helpful

Glad to see your happy that people who have voted legally in every election for the past 50 years were denied the right to vote.
That's a new law. Get used to it.

That's really something to be "proud" of.

When did we give nuns the right to vote? Is there a Catholic nunnery amendment to the Bill of Rights that sneaked through the Congress?

Doggone right those nuns should be disenfranchised; if they get the right to vote, the next thing we'll have is an immigrant Hollywood action flick actor with a bad accent wanting to run for governor.

Those nuns should get special loyalty screenings as well as counterintelligence polygraphs to ensure that they're real Americans. How do we know that they're not really just part of some "sleeper cell" sent years ago from the Vatican to subvert our schools with Biblical invocations and teaching Christianity?

America for Americans only -- those with authentic American accents, real American religion that isn't imported from Rome or Mecca, and those who will think like the rest of us.

Damn, HEY EVERYBODY, I think NOVA is growing a sense of humor.

Well gee, isn't having to go to a polling place a restriction just like a poll tax too?

Naaa, generally the Dems offer free bus service from Chicago to all of the neighboring states.
