Memorial Day 2015


This is what the Democrat Party posted on its' official Twitter account (@TheDemocrats) on Friday, May 22nd (two days ago).

This is the photo that came with the tweet.



Did he visit Arlington National Cemetery?  No.

Did he visit any cemetery?  No.

Does he think about the sacrifices made by our veterans?

No, he was thinking about his ice-cream cone.



The Commander of Fort Hood, Texas, the place where an Army psychiatrist named Nidal Malik Hasan, who is a member of the "religion of peace", killed 13 soldiers and wounded 30 others, ordered that its' soldiers would commemorate Memorial Day this year not with an ice-cream cone, but with a pair of boots on the ground for every one of their soldiers who was killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.


Link to a 8/30/14 story in the Los Angeles Times about Nidal Malik Hasan's request to join "the Islamic State", made from Death Row.

Every pair of boots represents a life taken
by a murderous Muslim named Nidal Hasan
at Fort Hood on November 5, 2009.
This was someone's husband
and someone else's father.
He should not have died.


The soldiers who died at Fort Hood are now eligible to receive Purple Hearts for the injuries, including the 13 soldiers who received fatal injuries.  Link to a story on the ABC News website dated February 6, 2015.

The law was changed mostly by the dedicated efforts of U.S. Senator Ted Cruz.  Link to the page, dated April 17, 2015, on his official U.S. Senate website that mentions it.



Mister President, Memorial Day is meant for remembering the people who died to preserve the liberty that we have today in America.

While you're enjoying your liberty and your ice-cream cone, we're not enjoying your disrespect for the people who made it possible for you to have either one of them.

Voter identification prevents voter fraud


India is a nation that whose population is four times the United States population.  Link to statistics on the web page IndiaOnlinePages.

India's people speak more languages and dialects than we do, so it is much harder for their government to organize any nation-wide policy than it would be for our own government.  Link to the Lanaugages of India page on the website New World Encyclopedia.

If India can organize a national system of identification for their voters, then the United States can do it.

This is a tweet that was posted by U.S. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee, who claims to represent the people of the 18th Congressional District in Texas, which includes the city of Houston.  If you click on the date, you can see the tweet on her Twitter account.

Voter ID laws discriminate against the most vulnerable Americans. Congress needs to ensure equality in the voting process now#RestoretheVote
— Sheila Jackson Lee (@JacksonLeeTX18) June 14, 2016


The only people who should be voting in an American election are Americans.
Voters should be able to prove who they are, whether they vote in person or not.

This proof of identification would also prevent anyone from
  • voting twice,
  • voting when they're actually a citizen of another country, or
  • voting after they've died. (Yes, it has happened.)



Voter Identification Cards

An Indian voter's identification card.

This is a real identification card for a real person.
A sample voter identification card for someone who lives in Pennsylvania.
A Mexican voter's identification card.

This is a real person, too.

If India, Mexico, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania can do it, every state in the United States can do it.





July 18, 2016 Update

Kansas, Oklahoma, and Georgia won

A Federal judge rejected a challenge to the principle of Voter ID.

These are the first five paragraphs of a June 29, 2016 Washington Times story.  Both of the links in these paragraphs were in their story.
Kansas, Alabama and Georgia can demand their residents submit proof of citizenship before signing up to vote even if they’re using the federal government’s registration forms, a judge said Wednesday, delivering a win to states concerned about voter fraud.

The League of Women Voters and the Obama administration had tried to halt the practice, arguing that federal law doesn’t require an extensive citizenship check when people register to vote, and saying the three states were imposing an extra burden on voters.

But Judge Richard J. Leon said that while it may be an inconvenience to require proof of citizenship, and voter registration drives may have to do more work to get folks signed up, it’s not an insurmountable burden — and certainly less so than trying to explain Obamacare.

“The organizational plaintiffs and their members will undoubtedly have to expend some additional time and effort to help individuals,” Judge Leon wrote. “But let’s be candid: doing so pales in comparison to explaining to the average citizen how the [Affordable Care Act] or tax code works!”

Since the voter groups didn’t show a real and irreparable harm, he rejected their request for a preliminary injunction.

North Carolina lost

This is a link to a July 29, 2016 New York Times story, written in an unprofessional manner.  Their choice of adjectives and adverbs makes it clear that this newspaper has taken sides in an issue that is likely to be an important factor in the presidential election in November.

Quotes from the article that show biased reporting.  I highlighted their bias with boldfaced text.

"A federal appeals court decisively struck down North Carolina’s voter identification law on Friday ..."

"That ruling and a second wide-ranging decision on Friday, in Wisconsin, continued a string of recent court opinions against restrictive voting laws that critics say were created solely to keep minority and other traditionally Democratic voters away from the polls."

The "critics" aren't named in this article.  The NY Times is substituting this false organization for their own opinions, which belong in an editorial, not a news story.  States have the legal right to prevent non-citizens and non-residents from voting.  The State Government of North Carolina exercised their right to do so.

North Carolina lost again

These are the first two paragraphs of a February 21, 2017 story on the website of the A.B.C. News affiliate in Raleigh, North Carolina.
RALEIGH, North Carolina (WTVD) --
North Carolina's new Democratic governor and attorney general say they are ending state efforts to persuade the U.S. Supreme Court to revive a GOP-backed voter ID law that was struck down by a lower court, but Republican lawmakers say they will continue pushing for the high court's review.

Former Republican Gov. Pat McCrory last year asked the Supreme Court to review an appeals court ruling that the elections law was unconstitutional because it targeted minority voters with "almost surgical precision" to discourage Democratic support and protect Republican dominance.

North Carolina won this time

These are the first three paragraphs of a December 19, 2018 Associated Press story that was published in the Charlotte Observer.
RALEIGH, N.C.

The North Carolina law detailing a new voter photo identification requirement got challenged in court Wednesday mere moments after the Republican-led General Assembly completed the override of Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper's veto of the measure.

Six voters filed the lawsuit in Wake County court less than 15 minutes after the state House finished the override in a mostly party-line 72-40 vote.  The Senate already voted to override Tuesday.

The photo ID law implements a constitutional amendment approved in a referendum last month that mandates photo identification to vote in person, with exceptions allowed.  Still, the plaintiffs contend the law violates the state constitution and should be blocked, saying it retains requirements within a 2013 photo ID law that federal judges struck down.




For more information on the topic of Voter I.D.

I have written six blog pages, on a different blog, about voter fraud.  These are the links.

Link to Part 1 - about ACORN

Link to Part 2 - changing the election date

Link to Part 3 - The voting ballot of  then-Attorney-General Eric Holder could have been stolen

Link to Part 4 - tampering with the electronic voting machines

Link to Part 5 - lawsuits to change the result of an election

Link to Part 6 - about voting in the name of dead people

I have started writing a seventh page on the topic of voting by people who aren't eligible to vote because they're not American citizens.  When I finish writing that page, I will include the link here.

I bet voter ID would really help against other countries, Like Russia, interfering in our elections. Maybe Democrats would consider this easy measure.

February 12, 2019 update

Very informative piece on voter-id laws. It seems they neither suppress turnout nor suppress fraud. So would everyone please calm down. https://t.co/sevM6nMDdF
