LEAVE IT TO PEEVER exists to give the other side of the story. Challenge the status quo. Confront conventional wisdom. This is sadly needed. I believe it is best to always cast positive doubt on the powers that be. It helps to even up the story.Or score. Please feel free to comment and submit articles. Not everything needs to be serious. I use a lot of slapstick humor, satire, and pontificating. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. We're about to embark on a survival adventure.

NO ID'S HAVE TO BE SHOWN AT THE POLLS
The first thing I was asked at the voting poll at Summit Bank was to
present my ID. I stated you cannot ask for my ID. You know, Arkansas
Supreme Court and all. The Voter ID law was struck down. She then stated
I didn't have to present it. I told her I thought she had the process
backward. Ask may name, spell it, and find it on the voter registration.
If it's not there, then proceed with whatever you need to do. Don't try
to make your job easier by side-stepping the law. A gentleman came over
and asked if there was a problem. I said yes, you are violating the
law. He tried to smooth it over. I said I would call the voting
commission in Saline Co., for an explanation. I called the election
commission. The gentleman stated the new voter ID law was struck down,
so they reverted back to the old law, which states they can ask for an
ID, but you don't have to present it. Helps speed the process. You can
still vote. I said that seems back-asswards. A confusing bit of
political work which seems to be a sign of the times. Confuse everyone
so they don't want to do anything, in this case, so they don't vote. He
agreed. He thought it was confusing and back-asswards. In the end, I
guess they did what they were suppose to do: confuse me.
