THAT is racism....

By the way, the Supreme Court trumps the Attorney General EVERY SINGLE TIME.
The GOP does not look out for all americans, even your own candidate says he doesn't care about the poor

If I type it slowly will it make more sense. No one is trying to take away the ability of a minority CITIZEN to vote. I guess next time I'm ask to fill out an application and it asks for race I can just put "Legal" because apparently now Legal is a race.

You are correct in saying the Democrats are for minorities. However, the GOP is for ALL people, regardless of race, ethnicity, economic status or anything else. Conservatives want everyone to prosper and be productive citizens. Democrats want to keep minorities in a protected status so they will always vote Democratic.

Look, if ACORN can get to every minority's house to get them registered then they can easily do the same to take them to the DMV to get an ID.

Yet your point is invalid as the issue of voting is a state issue, not a national one. Be sure to pick up a State and US government class while you are taking a logic and philosophy one as well. It should clear up the problem you are having with this discussion.

If I type slowly will it make more sense. Enacting voter ID laws is supressing the minority vote.

How does that "harm" minorities. If I voted, I would have to "pay" for ID, whether it's a drivers license or ID card? And I'm not a minority.

If they were free, I'm sure you'd be all for them?

All this for a mere 11% of the population; and free ID is provided and free transportation to get that ID and the left is still b*tching.

Not true. He said he was not concerned about them--that there was a safety net already in place to protect them.

Isn't it just crazy how libs will twist everything around?
