"no one is served by introducing possibilities for error, insecurity, and fraud."

And yet this dips#!t opposes voter ID? Hypocrite.

Democratic Rep. Rush Holt

The dems will do anything to suppress the military vote. Just as they did here in Florida in 2000. Won't work this time. By the way, thank you Jon (outhouse) Carry for mobilizing the Republicans and the military.

All one must do to unmask the Marxists posing as Democrats - is to get them TALKING.

Democrats can't explain a number of things they have become known for leading the effort:

1. To open borders to illegal immigration.
2. To grant full welfare/education/health care for illegal immigrants.
3. To fight any law seeking to prevent illegals from voting.
4. To fight any effort to smooth and insure the receipt and counting of Military votes.
5. To justify the existence of the "Congressional Black Caucus".
6. To weaken our security by fighting surveillance of the enemy, incarceration of the enemy, interrogation of the enemy and destruction of the enemy..
7. To focus on the inane bullshit, and pressure the media to ignore the significant...

For some time now -- I've come to view the Democrat party as the Enemy Within -- for they have surely decided that he survival of America is their greatest fear, and that the Republican Party is THEIR enemy - not the threats to our Republic from our Islamist or Communist enemy.

VOTE FOLKS -- Even our dumbest and most corrupt Republican is preferable to granting the Democrats ANY power in Congress.

At least if the Republicans remain a healthy majority - pressure can be brought to rid the party of the assholes...
One primary reason they have tolerated the RINOs and ASSHOLES so long - could have been the fact the margin of majority was TOO SLIM..

VOTE.

The bad news is that I am in his district.

The good news is that I am voting on Tuesday.

Let me see if I've got this right. Allowing military men to vote by absentee ballot is "full of security holes" but allowing illegals and dead people to vote is not.

It gets better. Apparently, to access the military secure network, the soldiers have to use a special photo ID card with a chip in it.

So, we have a situation where the ACLU is running around the country trying to stop photo IDs for voting at the polls, but the military has to use a photo ID to vote.

Every time you hand your credit card ot a $6/hr clerk to scan, you are exposing yourself to great risks. Would the Congressman attempt to stop us from doing that, too? Hmmm?

"Congressman Rush Holt (D-NJ) is trying to keep military personnel overseas from voting. He is not going to succeed, but it is telling that he is trying. "

ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!

Demoncrats in general don't want to risk having the military vote for conservatives. In general the LEFT is too cowardly to fight for anyone. They prefer to ONLY think of themselves.

I don't know this jitbag, but I know Kerry, and Kerry definitely hates us.

It's an article of faith among Democrats that soldiers are stupid, but sly and cunning and need to be kept away from the firewater and ballot box lest they do something dangerous.

Condescending people never realise how perfectly their condescension comes through, even to us poor sufferers who did not get the benefit (?) of an Ivy League union-card. (If Kerry is a typical example of Yale output, it can scarcely be called an "education.")

No, he is, really... no, seriously... stop laughing, blast it!... he is very concerned that this secure electronic voting system will make it harder for his ACORN pals to steal military voters' IDs.

For the person that mentioned it, yes, you need to use your CAC or ID card in a reader to log into any military computer, and sometimes a fingerprint reader too... and that's the nonsecure NIPRNET.

The Rats don't ever quit trying to keep the military from voting. During Clinton's reign the military sometimes didn't even get ballots and if they did they weren't returned on time. In 2000 a lot of military ballots were disqualified for dumb reasons.

A New Jersey congressman raised questions Thursday about a new military voting program that lets service members request and submit their ballots by fax or e-mail.

He's concerned because the votes can't be separated and thrown away before counting like the old paper system.

I really do believe the Democrats will do whatever it takes to win. They know better than the voters, and certainly better than the Republicans. If they have to dump a lot of votes in the garbage to make the result come out right, that's just what they have to do.

The result is just too important to leave up to the voters.

"...I'm angry and astonished that they're doing it again without review, scrutiny, and oversight," said Holt."

I.e., You haven't given us a fair chance to develop ways to steal the votes of the overseas servicemen.

In 2000 a lot of military ballots were disqualified for dumb reasons being Bush votes.
