democrats are the victims of.....well everything. Life, laws, hurricanes, racism, unemployment, inflation, you name it. In order to make sure people believe they are victims they have to lie, manipulate, riot, buy supporters with money and empty promises of paying them back, and so on. Just turn on CNN (communist news network)at any time if you need examples. Rewind a speech from obummer several times and you will catch another lie or half truth you missed before with each replay. (But his constant whining will eventually make you sick.) He is a failed president. Democrats put everything into a nobody, and now they have to double-down on it. Problem is his base is tiring of him, and the independants are stepping right. Time to wake the dead and get them to the polls. Time to get them illegal aliens to the polls. So photo id laws have to go. Lord knows a group that is so anti-christian, anti-republic, anti-freedom, anti-constitution would want TRUTH and HONESTY and TRUSTWORTHINESS back in government is insane. Bottom line here is democrats are going to do anything they have to in order to win. Anything. No matter how unethical, immoral, or unbelievable. They call themselves 'progressive'. Well, God warns us what will happen to us if we follow these "progressive" ideals. Look around our country today and tell Him He was wrong.

If they went to the DMV to get a photo ID, they would be checked for warrants while there. Thats why they dont want to get a real ID.

Help me understand here...the voter ID law is racist and unfairly targets segements of the population because it is too hard for them to go get an ID with a photo to vote with. BUT it is perfectly reasonable to expect that same population to be able to get to the library to get a library card with a photo ID? Why isn't a obtaining library photo ID racist and unfair?
