Getting Serious About Vote Fraud
The House GOP has taken a step in the right direction by passing legislation to phase in a requirement for official photo ID in order to vote.
Ritzy Mekler is none too pleased, and predictably, the Democrats are protesting. But it's worth noting -- because few Democrats will -- that the bill provides for free ID to be given to those who otherwise can't afford to obtain it.
As for cries that it places a "burden" on voting, well, if the Iraqis can risk their lives, walk miles in the desert heat and wait for hours, surely we Americans can obtain a photo identification.

Well, this is a wonderful development. And though I would normally prefer not to have the gov pay for slackers to get ID's, doing so, or at least suggesting so, eliminates the only Dem objection. If they object now, they'll need a good reason.
