Will Obama steal the 2012 election?

December 31, 2011

Barack Obama, Eric Holder

Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. claims Jim Crow is returning. In a recent speech, Mr. Holder said that attempts by states to pass voter identification laws will disenfranchise minorities, rolling back the clock to the evil days of segregation. He said that a growing number of minorities fear that “the same disparities, divisions and problems” now afflict America as they did in 1965 prior to the Voting Rights Act. According to the Obama administration, our democracy is being threatened by racist Republicans. Hence, the Justice Department must prevent laws requiring a photo ID to vote from being enacted.

This would be comical if the consequences were not so serious. South Carolina’s legislation provides for free ID cards to be given to anyone who needs it. Not one person – white, black or brown – is discriminated against or discouraged from casting a vote at the ballot box. Moreover, the Supreme Court already has ruled on the issue – upholding state voter ID laws. In the 2008 Crawford v. Marion County Election Board decision, the high court held that an Indiana law mandating photo identification at the voting booth was indeed constitutional. If it is good enough for the Supreme Court and the overwhelming majority of the states, then it should be for Mr. Holder as well.

It isn’t. And the reason is simple: The administration is trying to whip up minority frenzy, propagating the myth of widespread ballot suppression. The goal is to foster a sense of racial persecution of blacks, intending to maximize voter turnout in November. The results, however, will be to poison race relations further. Mr. Holder is cynically playing the race card in order to achieve President Obama’s overriding ambition: re-election.

Racism has nothing to do with states implementing voter ID laws. Rather, it is about protecting the integrity of our electoral system. Voter fraud is rampant; abuses regularly take place. In Chicago, local elections are often marred by ballot stuffing and multiple voting – including by false voters who use the names of deceased individuals. Indiana election officials have found that, during the 2008 Democratic primary, countless pro-Barack Obama and pro-Hillary Rodham Clinton signatures were falsified. In Minnesota, voter fraud enabled Democrat Al Franken to steal the election from incumbent Republican Sen. Norm Coleman. It is precisely to preserve the fundamental basis of our democracy – one person, one vote – that voter ID laws are necessary.

Stealing an election is not beyond this administration. After all, it’s the Chicago Way.

          Holder isn’t the only racist in Washington, these days!!
          Remember, Michele Obama had never been proud to be an American until her husband had deceived enough idiots to win the Dimbulb Nomination.
          Hillary blamed her husband’s impeachment on “a Right Wing attempt to discredit his administration,” right after she’d written how she’d “wanted to wring his neck,” when he admitted to having lied about the same thing to her!

People could go in and vote as many times as they want and Obama would be sure to win just like the last election, only that one was done with voter fraud.

    Realistically, the only thing using the photo ID card will prevent is the re-election of the present potus and his gang of thieves, and Washington and Chicago cronies.

  7. Veteran29 says:

    This is another attempt by B. Hussein Obama and his regime to allow more voter fraud to occur so he can slick his way into the White House again. That is the only reason Eric “flunky” Holder is even playing the race card on this issue. First of all Holder needs to be prosecuted for Fast and Furious, yea remember that violation of the law by allowing illegal weapons into this country that flunky Holder allowed to happen. Holder needs to be prosecuted and thrown into prison along with Barney Frank, Chris Dodd and several other members of Obamas regime.

      I, once, asked a black man why he was democrat and his response was, “The Republicans have never done anything for the black man.”
      I, then, asked him if he were aware that the democrats fought, tooth-and-nail to keep segregation going.
      I added that Georgia’s democratic governor (Lester Maddux) and Alabama’s democratic governor (George Wallace) were staunch segregationists and gave him irrefutable evidence as to how I know!

        So . . . being in the 21st century means anyone who walks into a polling place can vote without any need to prove who they are?

Yep, I really want those folks voting.
