Simply amazing that any American wouldn't want to make sure that non-citizens aren't voting. I love how they make this a party issue rather than an American issue. If these so-called disenfranchized voters were mostly Republicans the left would have no problem insisting that they provide proof of citizenship.
We need ID for just about everything we do in life. If they don't have one it is high time they got one.
A bunch of racists in South Carolina are trying to hold down blacks by forcing them, and everybody else, to show photo identification before they can vote.
Astonishing!
Luckily, Attorney General Eric Holder is on it. As he declared in Columbia, S.C., last Martin Luther King Day, the Palmetto State “failed to meet its burden of proving that the voting change would not have a racially discriminatory effect.” Holder’s deputy, Assistant Attorney General Thomas E. Perez, blocked this provision on December 23, citing “the racial gap that presently exists among photo identification holders in the state.” Specifically, “8.4% of white registered voters lacked any form of DMV-issued ID, as compared to 10.0% of non-white registered voters.” This 1.6-percentage-point gap can mean only one thing: racism.
The $50 or so it would take to gain a photo ID amounts to a poll tax. Period.
When a ID is issued by a state for free, then is it acceptable?? Many states do, including some of those that Eric Holder has sued in federal court to keep the state from requiring an ID for voters.

Not a party issue?
Republican Mike Turzai, Pennsylvania's House Majority Leader ..."state's new voter-ID law...is gonna allow Governor Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania."
Go back and read up on the subject before you post nonsense
BTW, adding "pants on fire" would add more letters too. Just trying to help
