This was touched upon in another thread but I heard some news yesterday that really showed me the extent of a problem. The Arizona state legislature passed a law that required people show photo ID in order to vote. That seems like a good idea to me. This is one place where we want identity to be as certain as possible, and fraud to be as minimal as possible. Showing ID is one simple way to accomplish it.
But Hispanic lawmakers started whining about it saying it was discriminatory against Hispanics.
How?!
If you live in America and are old enough to vote you have to have an ID of some sort. You can't cash a check, drive, open a bank account... unless... unless your an illegal alien and work for cash. Then it's no problem.
So Democrat Governor Janet Napolitano vetoed it. She says Arizona has no voter fraud. Nice reason.
Democrats seem hell bent on legislated anarchy, where anything goes, as long as a huge bureaucracy "regulates" it, badly. They want to give everybody everything. They want to make law after law to correct the previous law that screwed over these people. But the new law screws over someone else. Hey, no problem, we'll just fix it with another law! It's a vicious cycle. Democrats threw reason out the window a long time ago. It is the Pity Party. It is sickening. I seriously don't know how they sleep at night.
Republicans want to shove morality down our throats. Enough has been said about that recently. But the liberal democrat is just as bad. Think anti SUV ads. Think affirmative action. Think illegal illegal immigration.
This country is in a quagmire of "discourse" over things that the government has no business dealing with, and the things they are supposed to deal with, are handled with badly from a perspective of unjustified guilt and pity. So I hope all the people who benefit from liberal policies can manage to keep their self respect knowing their existence is controlled by and attributable to a patronizing bureaucracy. How can they sleep at night?
