So Predictable

This is so predictable it's no longer worthy of mention.  But, I'll mention it anyway. 
Earlier today, Attorney General Eric Holder addressed the NAACP Nation Convention at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. What did media need in order to attend? That's right, government issued photo identification (and a second form of identification too!), something both Holder and the NAACP stand firmly against when it comes to voting. Holder's DOJ is currently suing Texas for "discriminatory" voter ID laws.
You need an ID to get in the conference, but you don't need an ID to vote. Are these people stupid, or just brain-washed? In Holder's case, he's evil. Louisiana has a voter ID law, we've had it for years. For some reason, Holder et al has yet to question it. It seems that all these places with voter ID laws would do well to emulate the Louisiana statute. Just sayin'.

Nary a peep from them on the new Oklahoma law requiring ID to vote. Although I seem to remember them causing a stir about one in nearby Texas. Of course Oklahoma is about as Red as you can get and I guess they are picking their battles. Hell, most of the democrats here would be conservative Republicans in many other states.
