DD>>Those wanting to have a say need to prove their worthiness by volunteering

 TR> I find it disgusting that, in a country where there are
 TR> elaborate ways to check the ID of someone buying alchohol
 TR> or tobacco, and there are stiff penalties for using false
 TR> ID to purchase either one of those products, something as
 TR> important as voting to elect local and national figures who
 TR> will determine our policy and how the public moneys gets
 TR> spent, gets a pass.

 Yet there is a big problem with underage drinking, there is
 little problem with illegal voting. The US attorney scandal
 under Bush was about some US Attorneys who got reports of voter
 fraud, from republican congress critters, and found the reports
 were phony. So they got fired for not pulling off a political
 witch hunt. Remember, these were republican US attorneys,
 political appointees.

 TR> I cannot imagine under what logic someone like Al Franken
 TR> would be left in office, were it to be shown he was put
 TR> there by fraudulent voting.

 Good thing the republican opponent only got a small number of
 felons to vote for him. Not enough to overcome the honest vote
 lead Franken had.

 TR> Just as the bank the robber robbed to get the money was
 TR> illegally deprived of the funds, the majority of voters in
 TR> an election that is won by the opposite side through
 TR> fraudulent voting, are deprived of good government.

 Yep, just like when Bush was anointed by the Supreme court,
 because the recounts were showing Gore won.

 TR> And just as the house would be taken away from the bank
 TR> robber because it was purchased with stolen money......a
 TR> person who won political office by fraudulent votes should
 TR> be removed from that office, and the real winner installed.

 Which should have happened, and Bush should have been removed
 and Gore inaugurated. But that didn't happen, dispite your
 constant complaints about the republicans stealing the
 Whitehouse.

 TR> A far too casual manner of handling voter fraud is in play
 TR> in this country.

 Yep, and as long as the republicans can keep it that way it will
 continue.

 TR> And a far too loose a method of voter registration as well.
 TR> Registering to vote should have a far stricter criteria
 TR> than it does, as well as stricter supervision of the voter
 TR> rolls.

 Except for the fact that there is very little actual vote fraud
 ever shown in this country in recent elections. Ok, there is a
 lot of minorities who are legitimate voters kept from voting,
 but that's another matter.
