Looking forward to tonight's debate. I think it's going to be a bit of a snoozer, no real news made.

People died for the right vote in this country and Republicans are trying make it hard for regular American citizens to exercise their civic duty and Constitutional right.

Kind of funny you say that.

Going back to the Bush/Gore election. In Fla. one of the cases brought to the Fla supreme court was whether people in the military would be allowed to vote from out of state. There is a problem with some countries not using postmarks. Fla law says that out of state votes had to be "Postmarked" before a certain date. Even though the dates were written on the envelopes when they were received, and they were received well in advance, the dems still went after those votes claiming them to be illegal votes, due to no postmark. They knew those votes were legitimate but tried to suppress them anyways... and actually won the case (Overturned later).

So you want to claim that people have died for this country and then complain about normal peoples votes being suppressed. How about you douches trying to kill the votes of the ones who are actually willing to die to give you that right. For some reason, that wont bother you if a vote for a republican is not allowed.

The massively hypocritical part is that all the libs in Fla were carrying around signs that said "Every Vote Must Count". Yet when it was announced that every vote would not count (You know, those people who were willing to die to give you certain freedoms), libs were waving those signs in the victory dance.

Stop using the military and them dying for your rights as your reasoning for you being allowed to vote then claiming they dont deserve the right to vote as well.

Sorry, you're way off the mark. I won't address most of your post, but I will say this -- when I say people died, I wasn't referring to military. Where in the hell did you get that? I'm talking about pre-civil rights activists and those who fought for the right to vote in the 50s and 60s.

Signing a piece of paper (residency declaration) is quite cumbersome for a college student....:frusty:

I doubt it is but even you have to admit that it creates an undue burden given the insufficient time to educate voters, especially young voters. All these laws wouldn't be as much of an issue if Republicans hadn't enacted/tightened these laws so close to the election. It's quite obvious to any rational person what Republicans care about most is helping Romney win and not helping voters vote or protecting the sanctity voting.


Take this guy for example...How blatant and stupid is this guy?

I haven't done any research to know when the voter ID laws were put in place, but with the time our legislative/legal system take to work things through it would impact an election at some point. Like to PA injunction for this election, I wouldn't have a problem holding off on the NH law until after this election.

Turzai comment = agree, dumbass.

It burns me up. Conservatives are the main ones waving the flag and speechifying about the Constitution down their noses, but insist on making the most basic American right onerous.

[12thMan]

And don't give me this shit about lazy people and voter fraud. That's bullsiht. It's fukcing voter suppression. Plain and simple.

[los panda]

generalizing is healthy, one or several republican's views must represent the entire party's views.

Gotta feeling Obama gets his ass whipped tonight

Are there any studies out there that say voter fraud actually occurs in any significant amount to need IDs?
