A lot of people won’t get the chance to vote because of new voter ID laws. -3 photo IDs plus a birth certificate? I couldn’t come up with those. A driver’s license, YES.
“The pitcher smiled and cut one loose – across the plate it sped;Another hiss, another groan. “Strike one!” the umpire said.Zip! Like a shot the second curve broke just below the knee.“Strike two!” the umpire roared aloud; but Casey made no plea.
No roasting for the umpire now – his was an easy lot;But here the pitcher whirled again- was that a rifle shot?A whack, a crack, and out through the space the leather pellet flew,A blot against the distant sky, a speck against the blue.
Above the fence in center field in rapid whirling flightThe sphere sailed on – the blot grew dim and then was lost to sight.Ten thousand hats were thrown in air, ten thousand threw a fit,But no one ever found the ball that mighty Casey hit.
O, somewhere in this favored land dark clouds may hide the sun,And somewhere bands no longer play and children have no fun!And somewhere over blighted lives there hangs a heavy pall,But Mudville hearts are happy now, for Casey hit the ball." – from Casey’s Revenge by Grantland Rice.
in debate 1 Obama phoned it in as though he had a child relative who would be tortured if he did not throw the fight. or rocky mountain altitude zonk. or exhaustion of rolling that obdurate white publican rock up the mountain behind the molehill. He’s not allowed to be a wimp, he’s not allowed to be an Angry Black Man, not allowed to be himself, and thats a wicked f-ing crucible. His planned assassinations, the dumping of Bin Laden at sea, the crackdowns on whistleblowers, the continuation of Guantanamo prove that he’s got the misguided yet requisite macho cred. but he’s playing (as is Elder R) to the Stockholm Syndrome crowd, bombarded by a bought media and obscenely expensive soundbites of coolaid.
Which state are you in? In Florida, you need an ID that shows a picture, your signature, or both. I’m glad my driver’s license has both…. although it’s an old picture.
pennsylvanians will vote in the presidential election if they are registered – no id required – judge (republican i might add) suspended the requirement – pennsylvani for obama DONE

“Of course there is no voter id law that requires all these items. This is just another lying lib.”

Let’s hope the last verse is better…Mighty Casey strikes out. There will be “no joy in Mudville” if that happens.
