Yeah, lets harass the old timers who've been doing it the same way for 50yrs and make them accommodate someone else's dementia. That's sounds right to 'conservatives'.
Crock and a half. The VA screening process is 6 inches deep. The only way around it is if you knew the intimate details of a service member and faked your way into that card, but that could be done obtaining a drivers license as well.
I find it no small coincidence that dixiecrats authored the notions of prohibitive voting restrictions and the grand daddy's of gerrymandering. Shouldn't this crap be given the boot once and for good? Maybe if you didn't have a vote anymore we could abolish the practices permanently.
You do realize that having served in the military makes one eligible for VA benefits without regard to citizenship? I served with Canadians in the U.S. military. Unless those vets became American citizens they are not eligible to vote in our elections, whether or not they receive VA benefits.

I don't think the question of citizenship was an issue here. This veteran and retired local businessman was well known and had voted there for years.
Do you realize how many voters were turned away in FL in 2000 because Reps said they were felons , when it was known they weren't? it was thousands. Or the number of servicemen and women that were denied because they were serving their country and didn't get the notice in the mail mailed to their FL address - no forward allowed)
I would think this would cause greater outrage as it is the actual right to vote being denied eligible people, in order to swing(steal) an election....which it did. This old guy just didn't have the right ID in order to vote,
Please stop the lies. Please explain to us how poll workers would have disqualified people from voting by alleging they were felons. How would they have known that? And as far as the votes of servicemen and women serving overseas not being counted it was the Gore campaign that fought tooth and nail to have those votes discarded as not being timely received. Gore knew that the military was supporting Bush, not him. Finally, "stealing" elections has long been a Democrat stragem. The first election I remember clearly was 1960 when the Chicago Daley machine stuffed the ballot boxes to ensure Kennedy would win Illinois. Remember 'vote early and vote often?' A Democrat meme. 'Walking around money?' Right from the democrat playbook. Dead people voting? A Deomcrat favorite. Illegals voting? That got Loretta Sanchez elected.
So, please, spare us the phoney tears about stolen elections. Democrats have no--zero--regard for the integrity of the ballot box. In that sense, Hugo Chavez and others like him have have much in common with Democrats.
Correction. If it's one thing we've heard for 35 damned years, it's NEVER the GOP's responsibility for ANYTHING that happens, even as they're practically screwing livestock on national television declaring it their religious right to do so. They've been abdicating responsibility so long they're 100% empty suits. Why the hell should anyone take these zombies seriously as a party? It's far worse than just mere dead beats. The Tory tree needs a come back.

Do you not comprehend the depths of depravity these think tanks will go to twisting the heads of republicans to cover their Diebold tracks? They're instructing you all to inflict yourselves on your very own countrymen. A little bird came to your ear and told you to kill your wives and kids.
This is EVIL. ALL of it. Get this yet??? EVIL. CORPORATE FASCISM waging war on America itself. All for a buck but you've just got to have that handful of magic beans, now, don't you? Pitiful.
Normally I will side with a vet. In this case being old does not make one exempt from the law. Being a vet does not make one exempt from the law. being handicapped does not make one exempt from the law.
I never used to have to pay a $10.00 right to work tax. Now I do in fact 3 of them. I never used to have to do many things that now we do. Old timer next time find out the rules. I know everyone in my area got a list of what you must have in order to vote.

Why would anybody be hostile to requiring some type valid ID in order to vote?
I'm sure most Democrats support such laws. Why wouldn't they?
So you're saying that voter ID laws aren't really about identity fraud?
