I went to KFC, stepped up to the counter, and placed my
order. I told the gal, “I would like to
pay by credit card.” She said, “Can I
see your ID.” Indignant I asked, “Why
are you suppressing my appetite?” She
said, “I am not. It is our policy to
protect our customers and ensure you are who you are to prevent fraud.” I told her, “But it is my right to eat.” She said, “No ID, no chicken.” Surrendering to her insistence for justice
and realizing my privilege to have food, I showed my ID. As an afterthought I asked, “Can I have all
white?” She said, “That will cost you
extra.” Well, that is another story!
I tell you this story to make a point. We have lost common sense in our country and
those suggesting that we should not ID voters because we are suppressing the
vote are loony tunes on the verge of criminal intent. If you are going to get chicken, show your
ID. If you are going to vote, show your
ID. We ID to prevent fraud and when you
have illegal immigrants, non-registered folks, and dead people showing up to
vote, you need to ask for an ID to prevent fraud. Voter rolls need to be updated and cleaned up
with the full support of the Department
of Justice….what did I just call them?
When the Whitehouse, the legislators, and the lefty tunes are working
against a common sense approach to legitimize our privilege and right to vote,
we have to ask ourselves where is the transparency, what are they trying to
hide, and why are they not protecting our vote.
