If you haven’t done all these things requiring a photo ID, you’ve certainly done most of them, but General Colin Powell opines that the new voter ID law in North Carolina is racist and punishing for minorities.
“You can say what you like, but there is no voter fraud. How can it be widespread and undetected?”
This from an educated (but not very honest) man who served this country honorably in the military for many years. Some people are so racist they cannot reason with logic and honesty when it comes to something a simple and straightforward as requiring a photo ID to vote. Unfortunately Powell shares the stage in this dishonesty with the likes of Obama, Eric Holder, the ACLU and the NAACP, Jesse Hi-Jackson, Al -Not-so Sharpton and many others.
Here’s my point (hat-tip from Mark Levin’s FREE podcast). The Washington Examiner has compiled a lengthy list of things requiring a photo ID:
- Buying alcohol
- Buying cigarettes
- Opening a bank account
- Cashing a check
- Applying for food stamps
- Applying for welfare
- Applying for Medicare & Social Security
- Applying for employment
- Applying for unemployment
- Applying for a mortgage
- Renting a house or apartment
- Drive or buy a car
- Get on an airplane
- Get married
- Buy a gun
- Adopt a pet
- Apply for a hunting license
- Apply for a fishing license
- Buy a cell phone
- Visit a casino
- Pick-up a prescription
- Hold a rally or protest
- Donate blood
- Buy an “M” rated movie
- Purchase nail polish at CVS
- Purchase certain cold medicines
But somehow it’s racist to require a photo ID to vote? Gimme a break.
