Obama’s election scheme: winning through fraud

The Issue: Attorney General Eric Holder’s fight against voter-identification requirements.

Michael Walsh and many others elide the obvious conclusion with regard to Attorney General Eric Holder’s motivation (“Eric Holder’s War,” PostOpinion, July 14).

Holder acts as he does in order to ensure that illegal immigrants may vote — as he has good reason to believe they will vote for President Obama in overwhelming numbers.

Walsh does his usual great job; however, he doesn’t take Holder and the voter-fraud problem to its logical conclusion.

I’ve been telling people since 2008 that this would be the most crooked election in American history and that Holder and his Department of “Justice” are the key.

Obama expects the DOJ, not the voters, to hand him the election. That’s why the White House is fighting so hard to bury the DOJ’s role in Fast & Furious.

Obama is desperate to keep Holder in charge. So, unless he finds an equally loyal replacement, Holder is safe.

Holder will do the minimum to make it appear he’s truly concerned about voter fraud — but don’t believe it.

Recently, my wife and I had to meet my son’s guidance counselor at his high school.

Even though we had a scheduled appointment, we had to show picture ID and sign in with the time we entered and left.

Is it too much to ask someone to show a picture ID when voting for the highest office in the land?

It’s very sad that our Justice Department does not believe it to be important.
