Speaking of meds, anyone who has bought a decongestant in the recent past should realize how ridiculous the opposition to voter ID laws really is.

I had not done that for some time as I don't take decongestants; my son wanted me to pick up an allergy med with a decongestant for him (over the counter).

Merciful heavens! I thought I'd asked for a firearm by mistake! I kept waiting for the silly paper form asking if I were a fugitive from justice, and a call in to the feds, before I could get the medication.

I don't care what kind of sorry excuses the anti-ID folks give (usually something along the lines that getting an ID is just too onerous and/or expensive for some people) in a world where I must have an ID to get a job, drive a car, purchase tobacco, purchase alcohol, cash a check, board an airplane, and for crying out loud purchase a decongestant, there is no good realistic reason not to require an ID to vote.

You realize that Governor Dayton has had serious mental health and alcohol abuse problems, that would disqualify him from holding a security clearance or even enlisting in the Armed Forces. But he’s perfectly fit to be a senator or a governor, because, the liberal press hushes it up and he inherited millions of dollars from the Dayton department store chain, which now operates as Target. His first wife was a Rockefeller.
