Even in Texas? Interesting.

Do you agree with the narrative that sees Texas swinging Democratic in the next 10-15-20 years?

I do not.  But it would be hilarious if it happens.  My wife would certainly be happy.

But strangly I do not think it would really change much down here, after all Rick Perry used to be a Democrat back when it was cool.  His ilk would just jump on whatever the winning horse is.

You have to identify yourself with a picture id so YOU  cannot cheat and vote twice or thrice like some democrats do.

Why is this so hard to understand?

and how do you stop non-citizens from voting without photo id? explain this to me.

Says the guy that votes in two countries.  Fuck off.

I really dont think it will impact much. The GOP has a fucked up message. The Dems "ground game" is soooo much better. So they will mobilize to help people in Texas to get the ID. Wouldnt be surprised if they have not started already.

The ID is free.

Can't find issue with any of these sentences individually, yet putting them together reads like you expect Dems to make big gains in Texas.  :huh:

I'm not!
I only vote in the States.
Not that I did last election, since I was deployed and my vote didn't count.

So you fuck off, faggot!

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.

Eh, making a sheet of plastic with somebody's picture on isn't that expensive. And the states already do it for like 90% of adults.

They sure typically charge a lot for that shit. Besides, there's also the money that was spent on making such things into law in the first place.

While it's possible you can delude yourself into believing that, the amount of dodging you've done in this thread indicates there is something you don't want to take into consideration.  You can tell yourself whatever you want to believe all you like.  If you do it long enough, you may succeed! It happens all the time.  Some people use aids in that.  It's called "Talk Radio".

Stay Razzy. Honest.

Fix it for you.
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

This works better if you aren't actually repeating me.  C'mon 11b4whatever, you're smarter then this.
