Why is it that Democrats have a problem showing ID?
Is it related to wanting everything for free, no questions asked?

Nearly all of the few cases of voter fraud in this country are
not correctable by showing a photo ID (most cases are done by election officials).
It's a lie that there is "massive voter fraud" and we "need" voter ID. For 34 REPUBLICAN states to suddenly think that's needed before the 2012 election? When there is virtually zero history of ID-correctable fraud in this country?
Wake up and smell the Koch Brothers, ALEC and the Republican Party attempting to take back power. For goodness sakes, Dell, they have SAID that is the reason they are pushing voter ID for 2012.
Nobody has a problem with "showing ID". It's the methods. Like requiring voter ID, then closing down DMV offices where it's obtained in poor neighborhoods of northern Wisconsin - so elderly and poor would have to drive 60 plus miles to obtain it.
Like Texas making photo student ID's (young students tend to vote Democratic) not good enough, but photo gun registration cards (tend to vote Republican) okay.
If you pretend to be libertarian, concern about people disinfranchising up to 5 million voters in the next election should really worry you.
It is estimated that 1 in 5 black/brown people do not drive, or have the necessary photo ID. As opposed to 1 in 10 white people. THAT is the point of this. The Republican Party knows which way the demographics are trending over the next 20 years, and whites will be the minority quickly.
The Justice Department is all over this, as is their responsibility defending the rights of US citizens, and implementation of restrictive laws have frozen many of these states.
