    "According to a September 2014 Government Accountability Office report, fees for driver's licenses range from $14.50 to $58.50. These are not huge fees, but they're certainly significant if money is tight. Even for those who could afford it if they stretched, $50 price tag on voting could be enough to dissuade them, which is its own form of voting restriction."

    • nice to see the GOP trying to keep jim crow alive

      they'll definitely turn states like ohio, wisconsin, and philadelphia red with behavior like that

      To us, it is the BEAST.

      • Voter ID's in most states if not all of the states with such requirements to vote are free, Jon.

        For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio

          Voter ID is an amazing policy that makes people flock to the GOP.

            • You aren't the republican activist I need. You are the republican activist I want.

              I wish every election could be your posting history versus some random democrat.

              That's my wish.

                  I'm a Canadian. I find it amusing that you prefer my analysis to homegrown folks.

                  Am I a liberal
                  Depends on how you define it. I score libertarian (+5, -2) on the political compass. In the past I scored around -2, -2, in my early Poly days before becoming a Catholic.

                      There are a ton of Americans who share my opinion.

                      • I know. But in ten years, a lot of them will be dead.

                        ... and the eligible voters who come of age in the meantime will be much less in agreement with you

                        you backed the wrong horse

                        that horse is in the process of diving into a very deep canyon

                        though, he's about to trip himself up and bounce upwards before that happens

                          I agree less with boomers than I do with folks my own age.

                              Mhmm. I don't live with any white boomers. The last one assaulted me, tried to sue me for thousands of dollars and ended up arrested. Both of the last two people who assaulted me were boomers.

                              Can you say "JV team" in a one-liner?
                              Obama's 'Jay-vee team' just kicked his ass in Syria.

                                Thanks.

                                This one might be my favorite.

                                How about Benghazi? Any thoughts on that?
