The Motor Voter Issue: 8 Out of 19 9/11 Hijackers Had Voter Cards

Hillary Clinton got tripped up in the debate the other night on a question of issuing driver's licenses to illegal aliens. And it's no wonder. The vast majority of Americans hate the idea. Why do Democrats support it?

As Rush Limbaugh pointed out on his show the day after the debate, Democrats like giving illegals driver's licenses because then they can vote. And why can they vote? Because of the Motor Voter law passed in the 1990s, which automatically sends voter registration cards to anyone who gets a driver's license. At the time, conservatives warned that the law would lead to voting by ineligible voters, and indeed, 8 out of the 19 hijackers had voter cards.

Immigration will be a big issue in this campaign. Contrary to the hype, most Americans aren't racists, but they do believe that those wanting to come to our country should follow our laws. The idea that illegal aliens can vote is disturbing and candidates who don't answer properly won't get the votes.

John Edwards has a great ad regarding Hillary's flip-flops during the debate here (it wouldn't let me upload the video here).
