Obama Campaign Sues To Restrict Military Voting
Thursday, August 2, 2012 15:29
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
President Barack Obama, along with many Democrats, likes to say that, while they may disagree with the GOP on many issues related to national security, they absolutely share their admiration and dedication to members of our armed forces. Obama, in particular, enjoys being seen visiting troops and having photos taken with members of our military. So, why is his campaign and the Democrat party suing to restrict their ability to vote in the upcoming election?
On July 17th, the Obama for America Campaign, the Democratic National Committee and the Ohio Democratic Party filed suit in OH to strike down part of that state's law governing voting by members of the military. Their suit said that part of the law is "arbitrary" with "no discernible rational basis."
Currently, Ohio allows the public to vote early in-person up until the Friday before the election. Members of the military are given three extra days to do so. While the Democrats may see this as "arbitrary" and having "no discernible rational basis," I think it is entirely reasonable given the demands on servicemen and women's time and their obligations to their sworn duty.

Do the math; this is clearly dereliction of duty. Obama is Commander-In-Chief, trying to limit the Constitutional voting rights of those he allegedly commands? Liberals are lunatics. This much is clear. They pull a stunt like this and in the very same breath eviscerate the political opposition for merely suggesting ID be provided before one votes.
