But this time they have to prove it in a real court, not the DOJ kangaroo court.

Just using their own insanity as a weapon. They are like drug addled petulant babies banging walls and screaming with their crazy cards to trump you and anyone in their way. F-n twilight zone to genocide.

Of course. Waste our taxpaying dollars on the stuff that doesn’t matter.

I speak pig latin but didn’t know there was an official group. Where do I sign up for membership and how soon will I get a card? Maybe Holder can make the membership card my voter ID card.

Last I heard was immigrants had to learn English to get US citizenship. Although how difficult is it to recognize the name of your candidate? Are we going to now have to print the names in Arabic or Chinese or a dozen other languages to appease Holder?

A person needs a photo ID to:

1. Buy any tobacco product
2. Buy any alcoholic product
3. Buy any type of firearm
4. Buy any ammunition for that firearm
5. Drive an automobile
6. Open a bank account or even access that bank account
7. Get a mortgage or loan of any type
8. Get insurance of any type
9. Get enrolled in college or university
10. Buy any type of glue, spray paint, fingernail polish remover or other flammable liquid
11. Use a credit card

I’m sure there are many others that I can’t think of just now...............BUT NOT TO VOTE?..............

I think that a factual assessment will show that the Justice Department's actual interest is in maintaining an absurd approach to the elections that greatly favors those who use the race card to herd susceptible people to the polls, where those who are playing that card instruct them how to vote.

The Holder Justice Department is the closest thing Americans have yet seen to the "Justice" system under the Nazis in Germany. Holder, of course, is still frustrated by not having such worthies as a Heinrich Himmler to carry out his orders; but the Departments of some of his fellow cabinet officers may be moving in that direction.

membership in a language minority group

So only speaking Spanish makes you a victim minority, worthy of special rights?

Gee...I remember when Civil Rights were about characteristics you were born with, and could do nothing about.

Like the color of your skin. Not the color of your shirt this morning.

Just last night the tv news in Austin was banging the drum about whether AG Greg Abbott was spending too much time and money suing the FedGov. I wonder (he says, pensively stroking his chin) if the two things are related.

You would think that this issue was settled already:

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court upheld Indiana’s voter-identification law on Monday, declaring that a requirement to produce photo identification is not unconstitutional and that the state has a “valid interest” in improving election procedures as well as deterring fraud.

Text of the Opinion

In a 6-to-3 ruling in one of the most awaited election-law cases in years, the court rejected arguments that Indiana’s law imposes unjustified burdens on people who are old, poor or members of minority groups and less likely to have driver’s licenses or other acceptable forms of identification. Because Indiana’s law is considered the strictest in the country, similar laws in the other 20 or so states that have photo-identification rules would appear to have a good chance of surviving scrutiny.

Texas should sue Holder and his DOJ for harassment or for filing a frivolous lawsuit since the SCOTUS has already determined in April 2008 that State's Voter ID laws ARE Constitutional.

Can Texas appeal directly to SCOTUS to have the lawsuit thrown out due to SCOTUS' April 2008 ruling?

The department’s complain[t] alleges that the Texas Voter ID law “was adopted with the purpose, and will have the result, of denying or abridging the right to vote on account of race, color, or membership in a language minority group.”

This is an insult that I’d like to see Gov. Rick to address this to the National media in a very angry manner. Specifically to the Obama and Holder; tell them apologize first and drop your lawsuit second. Let ‘em know that we want HONEST elections not the games played across the nation in 2012.

15A says: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.”

The 2A says the very same thing about weapons yet we need not only ID’s but background checks and mental checks, etc. WTF!

In a way I’m hoping the courts support the DOJ on this then we have precedent to knock off government interference with our 2A rights.

The list of government buildings, offices and functions that require a Photo ID is a very long one.

If this is the official position of the Federal Government, then they better re-evaluate the policies of the TSA.

Is Eric Holder also suing the IRS for suppressing the Republican vote by stonewalling tax-exempt status apps submitted by conservative groups? Crickets?
