The WI legislature also is proposing a few “tweaks” to the law to clean up a couple of small issues in the next few weeks which should help even more.

I hate when I.D. law proponents make even small concessions on their original bill because it makes it appear that even they had some reservations about the effects. They should stand strong on every point. Otherwise, the liberal opposition jumps on these waffles to capitalize on them.

The "exempting poor people" concession is a joke. Who PAYS to vote? NO ONE!!!!!

On of the tweaks in this case specifically answers one of the lawsuits claims that they had no birth certificate due to being born in the south ages ago and therefore can’t get an ID.

Bullshit yes, but what the legislature is doing is allowing for that person to vote while signing an affidavit stating their vote is a lawful one. In any recount these would then be the first votes to be then challenged.

Suddenly there is a paper trail.

ACORN paid people to vote. It's a long standing Democratic Mafia tradition.

But you must pay for an ID at least in some laws.. if you simply make state ID free upon proof of citizenship what is the problem? I mean you government already pays for rent, food, gas, among other things. Do you really have a problem with free ID’s considering the problems it solves? State's could even put in only free state ID’s if you make under a certain amount. Seriously this is one thing converatives should have no problem paying for.
