The Dem Sores of Discontent

Some people are so arrogant they think the law never applies to them. They are usually liberals, who by definition want to boss the rest of us around. Sigh.

So it is somehow no surprise to us conservatives that one of the poster people arguing against requiring a photo ID at the polls is registered in TWO states:
On the eve of a hearing before the U.S. Supreme Court, the Indiana Voter ID law has become a story with a twist: One of the individuals used by opponents to the law as an example of how the law hurts older Hoosiers is registered to vote in two states.

Faye Buis-Ewing, 72, who has been telling the media she is a 50-year resident of Indiana, at one point in the past few years also claimed two states as her primary residence and received a homestead exemption on her property taxes in both states.

Monday night from her Florida home, Ewing said she and her husband Kenneth “winter in Florida and summer in Indiana.” She admitted to registering to vote in both states, but stressed that she¹s never voted in Florida. She also has a Florida driver’s license, but when she tried to use it as her photo ID in the Indiana elections in November 2006, poll workers wouldn’t accept it.

Subsequently, Ewing became a sort-of poster child for the opposition when the Indiana League of Women Voters (ILWV) told media that the problems Ewing had voting that day shows why the high court should strike it down.
The liberal League of Women Voters. It figures. (What ditz-brains) And a hyphenated name to boot. Having suffered as an election judge, I can just imagine how self-righteous she was. Good for the Hoosier judges.

And Democrats encourage the sense of grievance of people like this. Puh-leeze.

Are we there yet?

But we can always hOpe...Hillary and Obama "rubbing raw the sores of discontent"
