Voter ID.

When assessing my political opponents I work hard to exorcise cynicism from my thought process.

My cycnicism is (I want to summon imagery from The Exorcist but will refrain) is not going away regarding voter id. What is so awful about asking for an ID when it comes to voting? Who is it going to disfranchise? Governor Doyle most likely will refer to his dear sweet mother. What, she doesn't have a photo-ID? She can not get one? Come on Governor Doyle, you can not spare a little bit of time to help her get a photo-id? I am sure both parties would help voters obtain such ID.

The left often times talks about how sancrosanct our right to vote is. Why then do they refuse to protect that holy of holies against fraud? If voting is so important why then must we expect the voter to come to the polls completely unprepared? Isn't the voter supposed to be educated about the issues, why then do we assume they can not provide voter id?

Even if you do not buy the reports of voter fraud in Wisconsin, at best this is a hole in the roof. You know the old joke. A wife tells the husband to repair the hole in the roof. He says since it is not raining there is no problem, so why bother. The rain comes, the couple starts to get soaked and the wife asks the husband to fix the roof and refuses because it is raining outside.

At best we have sunshine and a hole in the roof, and the Democrats refuse to fix the hole in the roof. The reports though say it is raining. I say the Democrats need to suck it up, get wet, and fix the hole in the roof.

Governor Doyle, sign voter id into law!
