Funny how liberals don't mind a felon losing his gun rights, but losing his voting rights is a dirty Republican trick. Except those laws were most likely passed by wealthy Plantation Democrat elites to keep their plutocratic power structure intact.

This reporting makes me sick. Did the author just take last week's Kerry talking points and flesh it out? Anyone who is blocked from voting due to bureaucratic incompetence has a serious grievance. Same with threatening to arrest people at the polls (later in article). But what is that story about "mysterious people videotaping in line?" An army of voyeurs? Since when did a video camera qualify as intimidation?

As for driver's licenses, I think everyone should have to show a photo ID at a polling station. But read on - it all comes back to Florida for this reporter. No one in the press seems to fault the networks for calling the state for Gore before the panhandle had stopped voting, 'disenfranchising' thousands of voters who went home.

Oh well. I'm sure the illegal immigrant vote and New York-Florida double-voting will make up for it.

It's amazing that the vast majority of these felons would vote democrat.

What does this say about the democrat party?
