Obama: Thanks For Your Service, Just Don't Vote

The administration thanks the troops for their service by failing to comply with a law requiring that it help soldiers deployed overseas cast ballots in their home states.

The administration has taken various states to court to block voter ID laws on the grounds it will disenfranchise voters. But it has no qualms about the disenfranchisement of military voters overseas through its failure to comply with and enforce the Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment (MOVE) Act, passed by Congress in 2009 and signed into law by President Barack Obama.

How about absentee ballots. Is this what the veterans cant use.?
How about all those votes from nursing homes. People go to nursing homes and have the elderly sign the ballot and then it is "voted" on by the person offering to take the ballot to the voting place. Those elderly believe they are voting for whom ever but they really dont know where that X was placed.
I had a customer tell me that is what she was doing.
Just a thought.
ALL the military should be able to vote absentee ballot. They are putting their life on the line to give us the freedom to vote.
Obama knows the military will not vote for him..and he is right.
