#1 "Barnes said the law - which mandates that voters present a government-issued photo identification - violated Georgia's constitution, which guarantees the right to vote"...numerous times, with fictitious names, dead or alive, as long as theyre Democrats. [See Chicago, Washington state, East St. Louis, etc]

Wonder how upset the lad would be if he were handed counterfeit currency instead of the real thing. You guessed it. Cause he values the currency.

OK, boys and girls, how about a law that makes the voter ID card the only ID recognized to cash checks, verify adult age for venues, boarding an airline in your home state, etc. Since the state is providing them free, theyre better than a costly drivers license.

#2 In the recent past, several states have issued voter ID. It would be interesting to see how fewer democrats vote in those states this coming election, and in 2008.

#3 A restraining order at this point would throw a monkey wrench in the whole procedural apple cart that has already left the station," said lawyer Marc Cohen, arguing on behalf of the state.

He should be disbarred immediately on grounds of mangled metaphors. The government's task of ensuring a system that protects the rights of the legal citizens of Georgia to elect their leaders should be treated with dignity and respect, not by flippantly tossing off some lame trite sayings. Bah.

#7 Is that how you spell it, tu? I never saw it written, just went for the phonetic.

Think Johnny Carson, Fur.
