It is hard to believe, but then again, given how preternaturally stupid and politically correct Dems are, maybe it is not so hard to believe: a significant number of these jokers oppose photo ID when it comes to applying for Medicare and Medicaid benefits! Here is John Fund, Making the World Safe for Medicaid Fraud:
Americans expect to show a photo ID when they board a plane, enter many office buildings, cash a check or even rent a video -- but rarely in voting or applying for government benefits such as Medicaid. Many Democrats seem to view asking citizens for proof of identity as an invasion of privacy -- though what's really being protected is the right to commit identity fraud.
Exhibit A is Tuesday's 13 to 10 party-line vote in the Senate Finance Committee rejecting a proposal to require that immigrants prove their identity when signing up for federal health care programs. [. . .]
This shows that the Dems are not serious about health care reform. If they were serious they would begin by solving pressing and solvable problems such as the fraud and waste in existing programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. But they refuse to take the simplest steps toward this end.
