Ready, Aim, Vote?

That new voter ID bill down in Texas; the one that Governor Perry just recently signed, the one that apparently accepts a gun ID, but not a university ID - I am sorry, my good conservative colleagues, but I ain't even got a reasonable defense for this one. And the fact that it's so damned nakedly obvious; college students being largely a Democratic voting bloc, gun owners largely a Republican one. This, folks, IS voter suppression - straight up and, yes, as much as it pains me to say it, the progressives are flat-out correctomundo in their outrage. ......................................................................................................P.S. How 'bout this for a suggestion? Starting now, whenever a person goes down to city hall to register to vote, YOU TAKE THEIR FRIGGING PICTURE! Yeah, it might cost a little more and all, but at least it will eventually lay to rest this whole idiotic/divisive issue. Eventually, I'm saying. In the mean time, though, please, let the college students use their damned IDs (older Americans their Social Security cards, etc.), OK?
