A federal court in Tennessee has dealt a serious setback to those attacking photo v**er identification laws around the country including Eric Holders Justice Department in North Carolina. United States District Court Judge Ronnie Greer has thrown out a lawsuit brought by the Green Party challenging the Volunteer States photo v**er ID law.
While the decision was bad for the Green Party in Tennessee, the opinion may be even worse for v**er ID opponents nationwide such as the NAACP, the Mexican American Legal Defense Fund and Eric Holder .
Greers opinion undermines most all of the arguments being pushed by leftwing e******n-integrity opponents like Eric Holder and the NAACP.
One of the favorite talking points of the left is that v**er ID is a solution in search of a problem. Any search of stories about v**er ID reveals a coordinated push of this strategy by the left and their paid public relations firms.
But Greer, like the United States Supreme Court before him, ruled that states are entirely free to enact e******n-protection statutes even without proof of v***r f***d. In other words, states have the power to get ahead of the criminals and v**e-fraudsters.
Greer:
Plaintiffs allegations of Tennessees lack of empirical evidence of in-person fraud or that requiring photo identification will reduce it are irrelevant.
Greer relied on the United States Supreme Courts decision in Crawford vs. Marion County.
This is bad news for Eric Holder and the plaintiffs challenging North Carolina v**er ID.
Not to be deterred, however, Holders l*****t lawyers have cooked up a fall-back plan. In North Carolina they are arguing what they already argued and lost in Texas and South Carolina that the lack of widespread v***r f***d means that the v**er ID law must be a racially motivated legislative plot to harm minorities.
If you didnt catch that, it goes like this.
Since legislators in Texas, South Carolina, and North Carolina could not point to widespread v**er impersonation, r****m must be the real reason behind passing v**er ID.
The argument openly made in court reveals the rancid paranoia about Southerners by V****g Section lawyers. No surprise there given the backgrounds of the lawyers involved.
But put aside for the moment the fact that mainstream media like the Houston Chronicle, the State, and the Charlotte Observer bury or ignore incidents of v***r f***d. Ignore for a moment that the left never tells you what widespread or pervasive fraud means. Nor will they reveal how many units of fraud they find to be acceptable before a legislature may act.
Judge Greer echoes what sensible Americans already understand: its no big deal for a state to require you to prove you are who you say you are when you go to v**e.
This isnt a r****t plot by southern white male legislators or the Ku Klux Klan version 2.0. Its common sense.
Judge Greers opinion upholding Tennessees v**er ID law was all about common sense.
No plaintiff has ever successfully challenged a v**er ID law in federal court. All of the cases have been characterized by the same comic flaw: the person who cant obtain a photo ID cannot be found. The elusive snow leopard is easier to find than someone who cant get a photo ID.
The recurring void was no different in the Tennessee case. From Judge Greers opinion:
Defendants argue that plaintiffs complaint does not identify a single injured person [or] allege that one injured person is a member of the Green Party.
The case is a warning to the plaintiffs challenging Texas and North Carolina v**er ID. Bluster, sound bites and talking points only go so far. The country isnt under the boot of structural r****m perpetrated by conniving Republicans in North Carolina and Texas (and Democrats in Rhode Island).
Its not 1963 anymore, and federal courts are increasingly coming to understand it, even if Eric Holder does not.

V**er ID Laws have been on the Local, State & Federal Books since 1787 at least... And they've been updated as better means of Identifying V**er's Residential Status & Identity Have Improved... SOCIALISTS LEARN TO LIVE WITH IT...

Old Gringo-thanks for the post. Eric Holder will do anything, including moving headstones, to get every democrat to cast as many b****t as he/she can. They cannot win in a f**r e******n so you can expect that they will try every underhanded tactic they can find to gain unfair advantage.
This has to be one of the most corrupt administrations in our history. Good Luck America !!!

Great minds think alike. The test of a man's intelligence is how much he mirrors your own beliefs. :lol:

States that mostly v**e Republican are not being taken to court, even though they have v**er ID laws or are passing them. Georgia has just come out with a law that everyone must show a birth certificate to get a drivers license or an ID card. I haven't heard of anyone taking them to court about it. That will serve as a photo ID for v****g when the times comes, so in about 5 more years we will have everyone registered with a photo ID in state. An yes, if you were born at home and don't have a birth certificate you can still get a photo ID or drivers license here. I don't see any real reason why people can't get these ID's if they want one and I had no real problem getting mine, even though I had to send off for my birth certificate. They gave me a temp license for 45 days until I got my birth certificate in and then got my regular license.
The states that are really catching it are the ones that can go either way and they still get enough e*******l v**es to determine the outcome of the race. As long as they can keep these states, they don't care what the rest do. In most of these states they can c***t like mad and use v***r f***d like they did last e******n and put their man in anyway. The only thing they care about is that e*******l count and to make it into the White House..............

V**er ID shouldn't have been a political issue anyway. Common sense dictates that if you're not a citizen, you can't v**e, which means identifying citizenship is a given, not a choice. Politics tend to complicate everything by ignoring common sense.
It is the responsibility of every political party, and its candidates, to PROVE their ability to HONESTLY and FAIRLY perform the duties for which they may be elected for the benefit of the v**ers and, more importantly, the Nation!
"Justice" and common sense in a FREE Nation , along with an ability to v**e, allows a native born and "legal" U. S. citizen the HONOR to be able to v**e their choice regardless of person or political party.
To insure an HONEST, FAIR and ACCURATE "v**e" decision, in today's "way of life", a 'NATIONAL' and/or "V**er" I.D. card will guarantee the "People's Choice"!

I believe that there was some rally in Charlotte N.C. recently that also included the NAACP and the statement was made that if they were planning on attending this rally that they definitely had to have there photo I.D.'s with them. Do as I say not as I do.

It is also the law that one cannot v**e if not a citizen.
