(Agenda? What agenda?) Sorry, guys; it&#8217;s only a nightmare for Democrat demagogues who need those votes in order to access the public trough.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In the states with significant voter ID laws, more than 10 million eligible citizens live 10 or more miles from an office issuing the proper photo IDs and about half a million of those voters don\u2019t have access to a vehicle, according to a study out Wednesday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So how do they get to the polls on election day? Both political parties have &#8216;get out the vote&#8217; efforts; getting voters registered would seem a perfect application of that. But no; opening the system up to fraud is the only &#8216;fair&#8217; solution.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In the report, the Brennan Center \u2014 which is regarded as a liberal think tank and is against the new voter ID laws \u2014 states free photo IDs are not easily accessible to the 11 percent of voters who do not currently have them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So how do they cash a check, drive a car, fly on a plane, get into an R-rated movie, see the President, or attend a Union meeting, all of which require a photo ID? I guess voting is less important than any of those other things.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The government offices where voters can obtain the proper IDs have limited business hours, the Brennan Center stated, citing an example in Sauk City, Wisconsin where the ID office is open only on the fifth Wednesday of any month \u2014 but only four months in 2012 have that fifth Wednesday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Oh, gee, the government&#8217;s operations are inconvenient. Who would ever have thought it? And Wisconsin is a blue state &#8212; surely it couldn&#8217;t be that Democrat bureaucrats are deliberately making getting a government ID difficult so as to support studies like these? Naw, that could never happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Read it. Or so The Politico would have you believe. (Agenda? What agenda?)
