Slave,
Its a fine, fine eruption of bile against Democrats, I'll grant you, but I note that most of it appears targeted at national figures who've said various stupid things that WSJ finds objectionable, save two paragraphs that actually talk about, you know, the GA statute:
It seems that Mr. Williams is working under an assumption that it's no biggie to get an ID. That's fine as far as it goes, but the data quoted above suggests that it is something of a hassle, which happens to target a particular racial group. It's counterintuitive to think that demographics have left sizable voting blocks without official photo ID, but it appears to be so, and they appear to be black.
Mr. Young laments that so many blacks in the state lack such an ID, and thinks that fixing it is a good idea. I agree. Until it's fixed, though, the statute sounds like a really bad idea. Wouldn't you agree?

I think its right wing wackos like Juan Williams and Andrew Young showing their typical lack of sensitivity to racial discrimination. They should open their eyes to the damage their latently racist suggestions cause.
