It's nothing more than a <a href="http://blog.badtux.net/2008/04/high-tech-jim-crow.html" rel="nofollow">modern-day poll tax</a> unless the State intends on giving out these ID cards for free. Which they do not intend to do, because that would do away with the whole reason for this law -- to keep those pesky untermenschen from voting in elections that good white rich Amurricans is supposed to win. - Badtux the Jim-Crow-smellin' Penguin I wrote about this.

Gore. I have absolutely no respect for the majority on this court. It's shown itself to be small, partisan, and mean-spirited, upholding precedents when they serve the narrow interests of its base and ideology and tossing them overboard when they're inconvenient. What a disgrace. It’s been downhill ever since Bush v. Gore. I have absolutely no respect for the majority on this court.

Hearing some bullshit State's AG claim voter suppression as a cure for non-existent voter fraud without anyone in the media crying foul frustrates me to tears and anger. Where has America gone? What happened to the land of the free and home of the brave? Scared to death by fucking fascists. I heard this on the news on the drive home and am simply outraged.
