You have mentioned over and over on here that there is no, and has been no voter fraud in this country of any kind thus why worry about that.

Wow.....how many have been purged ? Not looked at, acutally purged. That would make a very long night as that number is so small....now, it could happen if they dont have an id, but you said that is not a problem !

It is an excellent idea to encourage your nieces/nephews to enter some field of research - but, I should warn you (you probably already know this, though) - republicans don't believe in education - or in science.

Coralway, is that a nice thing to say? Just because some of the Reactionary Right like "BarbieDoll" Palin have no educational credentials whatsoever and believe that dinosaurs and humans roamed the Earth together when Earth was created 5,500 years ago - is no reason to say ALL Republicans do not believe in education or science. Or is it?

It is. The Texas legislature, for example, is trying to ban critical thinking from education.

There are only two scenario's Romney wins or Obama wins.

If Romney wins the country wins and no one will be blaming anyone but rather patting each other on the back.

If Obama wins Republicans will blame each other and the entire country will go into deep depression when Obama has free rein to impose his socialist agenda giving us a future view of the world in total destruction much like those scenes from Hollywood's doom and gloom movies where people walk along deserted streets with grocery carts forge for food or anything of value :22yikes:

OMG I could make that into a television series. gotta get an agent:024:

I'm no fan of Silly Sarah but I'm thinkin you may be wrong on this statement. She does hold a degree. Is that what you mean?

i see the ridicule and demean factor is still here and just as loud. What on earth do you folks get out of name calling and ridiculing other people ? Does it make you feel good inside.

how about those of you only posting jabs, snide remarks, partisan slandering and name calling, try to offer what the original poster had asked for....it will take some unprepared dialogue but we know all are capable....how else could y'all survive in the non political venues of life?

Vote suppression? Are we bringing up the 2008 election activity?

Voter fraud? You mean leave the dead, the non qualified and illegals on the books.....2008 all over again....eh?

btk: Most of my posts on the political forum are on the light side because I am so done with the lefties here. All you are going to get are unfounded allegations, sniping demeaning remarks....but its not their fault. The leader of their party has left them with nothing in their quiver. So these poor souls are left with innuendo, fantasy, mocking, disinformation dissemination and the coup d'etat "Is so, Is not" offense/defense tactic:D

and democrats just believe that someone else other than the student and their parents should pay for it!

the democrats already ban critical thnking - the texas legislature is just trying to catch up!

bucco - it is because they have nothing meaningful or substantive to add to the thread.

It's Not Your Imagination: Republicans Really Don't Like Science

google republicans or conservatives and science - there are hundreds of links.

Have a discussion with a con about global warming - watch their eyes glaze over.

This "voters being denied the right to vote" and "voter suppression" stuff is pure crap.

Freedom comes with individual responsibility.

It is a voter's responsibility to make sure he/she registers to vote on time and truthfully fills out the forms.....and no more than once. It is also a voter's responsibility to actually show up and vote at the polls on the appropriate day/time, or in advance with an absentee ballot mailed in or dropped off on time.

It is also a voter's responsibility to periodically check on their current voter registration record, either online, in person, or on the phone, to make sure of their poll location and to assure they are currently registered in time for the upcoming election.

Newly naturalized citizens are thrilled to take up these new responsibilities with their new citizenship. If a person for whom English is a second language can make sure they're properly registered and can show up to vote in the appropriate place/time, then a person born in this country speaking English from birth can do it, too.

So why is it all these republican leaders are coming out and saying these photo ID laws were passed to suppress the "black vote", such as Representative Mike Turzai (R-PA) GOP lawmaker who said on camera that this law is "gonna allow Governor Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania"?
Or Jim Greer, the former chairman of the republican party in Florida, saying that meetings were held just after the 2008 election to talk about ways to suppress the black vote?

These comments don't bode well for the open and free elections this country is supposed to have. Hopefully, the courts are going to decide that these laws violate the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and overturn them.
