You know what the real irony here is? If Bush hadn't taken tommy thompson for the HHS position, he would have still been governor and would have signed the voter ID act that was passed by the republican legislature but vetoed by the dem governor.
Brilliant strategery on Bush's part.
Missouri doesn't have any ID requirments other than the card that they send you. I have sent letters to my reps asking that someone introduce a bill which would require ID to vote.
