So You Need A Driver's License to Vote?

But in order to get a driver's license you need a birth certificate & Social Security card, and in order to get your Birth Certificate & Social Security card you need a driver's license?

Is that how it works? If so this is a MAJOR pain that will disenfranchise ALOT of people. I live in NYC and have never been asked for a photo ID to vote except for my first time voting back in 2000. Now I just walk into my voting precinct, tell them my name, and sign next to it. Then its off to the voting booth.

Btw, I don't recall seeing anything about showing photo ID to vote in the Constitution, and some courts have already deemed it un-Constitutional.

I wonder what Thomas Jefferson or John Adams drivers license's looked like. Hmmm...

GOP hates Big Govt, unless it oppresses those they disagree with or allows them to probe my vagina.

"A New Low" The Romney Campaign Says??!

Personally, I believe the lowest OF ALL LOWS was when the GOP & Bush delegates wore band-aids with with Purple Heart drawings on them on the floor of the '04 RNC convention just to mock John Kerry, an ACTUAL receiver of the Purple Heart for being wounded in military action in order to defend a draft-dodging chicken-hawk neocon named George W. Bush. And not only wasn't it reprimanded by Bush & the GOP, it was encouraged. F**king A-Holes!

WE get mad when they mock our candidates with lies & smears, THEY get mad when we mock their candidates with the truth.

YES, Romney/Ryan wants to unchain Wall St. That's the TRUTH. And these 2 chicken-shits are too spineless to stand up for their position. Instead they will lie to our citizens about their position than backstab us all like cowards.

And lets not forget ALL the other BS they have said about Obama, Michelle, Sasha, Malia. The racist taunts, the heckling at the SOTU, the complete fabrication of who Obama is and what he stands for. F**k THEM!

If they privatized the U.S. Postal Service

1-Stamps will be $5 each.

2-You will pay monthly to receive your mail (unless it's bills of course)

3-You will pay monthly to opt-out of the INSANE barrage of junk mail you will undoubtedly receive now that we're forced to submit your personal info to another corporate entity with a CEO just looking for a big paycheck & bonus.

4-Every time gas prices rise so will stamp prices.

5-It will be publicly traded, go bankrupt, and cease to exist. Leaving us without a mail system.

6-Your mail, personal info, prescriptions, etc will be in the hands of a private & secretive corporation.

7-Could effectively influence politics & elections by controlling messaging/political mail/ads

8-The plutocrats get to crush another Union as they continue to raid & pillage middle class wages.

9-They'll find new & inventive ways to price-gouge.

Anything else?

My tax savings under Obama is $4,800 during his 1st term vs. An $884/yr tax increase under Romney's plan.

I Don't Trust CNN, But Dana Bash Has Staked Her Entire Reputation On The Line, Possibly Even Career

"I have to tell you that, uh, I did speak to one source who's very close to Senator Reid who claims to also know who this Bain investor is that Reid spoke with, and insists that this is a credible person, and this person, if we knew the name we would understand that they would have the authority and the ability to know about Romney's tax returns."-Dana Bash


I do trust Harry Reid though, and with Dana Bash throwing herself into the middle of this, I believe this means we're about to receive SHOCKING revelations about Mitt Romney's taxes. Notice how he said he would release one more year, then files a tax extension so that this ONE SINGLE YEAR wouldn't be made available until October 2012.

The REAL reason is because his accountants are scrambling to come up with something, ANYTHING to make this ONE SINGLE tax return seem even somewhat normal, presentable to the American people.

The truth is, is that Romney's tax returns will not only read like a blueprint for how billionaires regularly defraud the U.S. Govt year after year, but his tax returns will prove EVERY SINGLE THING Pres.Obama has staked his campaign on and said about the rich paying their fair share will become truth to power. The jig will be up, and Romney's taxes will be the rat/turncoat to this organized crime syndicate.

Not only will the middle class despise him, but he will be shunned by every millionaire/billionaire in his precious business community and at the country clubs for "giving up the goods". The Romney name will be forever tarnished, from his church, to his business reputation.

They're only screaming class warfare louder now because they are finally backed into a corner <---Enough to pay off the entire Global National Debt.
