        @WSJ Oh yeah.... God-forbid we ask voters to have an ID available. That would be a real invasion of common sense.

        @WSJ Carding those obviously over 65 is stupidity and government run amuck. Yes, I know, many will say I'm being redundant.

        @WSJ I was carded in the Atlanta airport this week when I ordered a bud lite. I am 55. First time in 30 years I have been carded.
