POLL: MEDIA OUT OF TOUCH ON VOTER ID LAWS, 83% APPROVE

Remember how, during the media's failed months-long crusade to push for gun control, the GOP was under siege 24/7 from left-wingers like Chuck Todd, Joe Scarborough, and Wolf Blitzer armed with polls that showed 80% wanted background checks tightened, including a majority of Republicans?

Part of the media strategy (CNN turned their entire network over to the partisan cause) was relentless concern-trolling. The cries that the GOP was doomed if our 2nd Amendment rights weren't further restricted came from every corner of MediaLand: "This is an 80-20 issue!", was the talking point across every new outlet in America.

Well, guess what else is an 80-20 issue? Voter ID.

A McClatchy poll released Thursday shows that 83% of those polled believe laws requiring voters to "show identification in order to vote" is a "good thing." Only 13% see it as a "bad thing."

Moreover, a full 72% of Democrats see voter ID as a "good thing."
In fact, 65% of those who see themselves as "very liberal" favor voter ID laws.

The media coverage of this issue, though, would have you believe the complete opposite is true as they fabricate a reality that claims Mississippi is still burning thanks to a GOP pushing for unpopular laws intended to disenfranchise blacks.

According to this poll, though, no one, not even self-identified Democrats, are buying the media's cynical, partisan line of nonsense.

The media is obviously way out-of-touch on this issue, but because they are dishonest and abuse their power to shape realities that don't exist; they can pretend black is white, up is down, and lies are truth.

The first time that I saw 'Bama on the campaign trail, it was obvious that he was channeling Slick - a.k.a. Bill Clinton. Say that you're for everything that important voting demographics say will get you the number of votes that you need. And say those things even if they're contradictory. I expected that the commentarors would tear him a big brand new one.

After the debate was over, all the commentators said about him was how presidential he looked. Almost dropped my teeth. It was two weeks before I realized that the liberal media had adopted him as their candidate and that exposing him was simply not going to happen. Apparently nothing has changed.
