The Dems consider them a form of discrimination (well, they're meant, after all, to discriminate against fraudulent "voters") and voter intimidation (again, they'd intimidate would-be frauds).

Are you serious? Clearly, I'm out of the loop on this (hanging head in shame) debate. How can asking for a picture ID be any form of discrimination? This is a joke, right? I'm not sure about other states- but here in Florida even if you don't have a driver's license- you must have a photo ID.
It's kind of amusing, almost, to see our politicians simultaneously push for a National Photo ID Card, but deny any identification requirement to VOTE. I can't even rent a movie from Blockbuster without showing proof of ID.
Most articles don't refer to us as citizens - just "voters". What's happening is LEGAL citizens are being DISENFRANCHISED with vote dilution, and possibly invalid election. Time for this nonsense to go away in 2004. If any candidate wins fair and square in an open and honest election, it's OK with me. Might not like it, but there's always 2008.
