Do let them get to you. They are just mad because their hysteria is for not.

Leaving aside the hysteria angle, I don't think anyone should be happy that their state is going to spending money fixing a problem that by most accounts does not exist or barely exists.

This is something I've been wondering about.  Defenders of the voter ID law say that it's "Free", like they fall out of the sky.  Someone, somewhere is paying for it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Nah, it's more like he's wondering about you not worrying about spending.

Find out for me how much it costs & then we'll discuss.

Uh, try again.  That's impossible since it will be an ongoing cost.  There is no end date to people getting the "free" IDs.  Early costs will be several million dollars in every state I've looked at.

Okay, cost per year.

Aren't you the one who's supposed to be the fiscal conservative, concerned about ill defined budget items and the foolishness of implementing programs without considering their cost?

A small price to pay for Republican victory.
