Don’t worry, I doubt she has an ID. Oh wait, shit…[/quote]
If liquor stores around where she lives are strict about ID, my guess would be that she does.
Either way, photo ID or not, if she’s a citizen she should get to vote. Scary as that prospect is.[/quote]
No. uneducated ignorant people should not vote. We may not have the right to stop her, but the last thing in the world she should do is vote.[/quote]
Sounds great until someone decides either you or I don’t have what it takes either.
Stupid people should have a say in the public affairs that will shape their lives just like everyone else. It isn’t a happy conclusion bit its the lesser of the evils in my view. Who’s to say you deserve the freedom of self-determination and someone else doesn’t. [/quote]
Democracy is the very opposite of self determination.
I have no problem if any and every idiot sails his own ship, I just dont appreciate if he has a say in my affairs.
Also, I do not see why utter idiocy should not be represented in the legislative bodies:
SEN. CHARLES SCHUMER (D), NEW YORK: I would urge my Republican colleagues, no matter how strongly they feel, you know? We have three branches of government. We have a house, we have a senate, we have a president. And, all three of us are going to have to come together and give some.

Yes, I’ve heard, we would all be better off without government.

Far, far less would be a start.
To call voting an act of self determination is blatantly absurd in any case.
Are you saying that that article is wrong, that the lifeline program wasn’t began under Ronald Reagan? No, because you can’t, because it was.[/quote]
By the way, that link doesn’t work.[/quote]
You have to click on it a few times. Demand must be high. No disagreement on when the program started. Just found it amusing that Obama apparently hasn’t objected to the site name.
The problem with stupid people voting is that eventually (read: now) our “leaders” figure out how to manipulate them so that they can keep their power.

Freedom of self-determination isn’t necessarily connected to being able to vote. Sometimes people are not intelligent enough to vote.
Just in case anybody actually thinks Drudge is making some kind of point about Obama here.[/quote]
Yeah, because a local news station is a tabloid. Oh, what have we? The race card…who would have thought posting a link to a news story picked up on a local news station website would be racists, yet…nothing said about the local news station being racist.

Don’t know what you mean here.
I wasn’t alleging racism, just pointing out that this free phones thing is decades old.
As far as I remember, the Slate tory doesn’t talk about race. Could be wrong. I knew the Atlantic one did so I didn’t link to it.

Yes, accused the Drudge of using tabloids to make, “black people look like violent dopes who’ll do anything for more goodies from Obama.” Race is in the link of the article and the title of the article.
