ACU, not ACLU. Please try to keep up with the class.
Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.There's your precious "Constituitional enumeration."
Okay, so which provision in that particular article allows for a national ID card?
That's why I encourage everyone to fill out all questions other than the Constutitionally valid one (how many citizens live at this address?) with gibberish.
Bottom Line: Follow the money.
I'm sure Chemist_Geek will be able to find it if he stares at the emanations from the penumbra long and hard enough.
In 1952? No.
In 1965? No.
In 1980? No.
In 1994? Maybe
On Sept 10, 2001? Maybe
In 2004? Yes.
The reason is simple. I consider the safety and lives of my family and neighbors more important than the "civil rights" of foreign killers.
Next question?
In 1994? Maybe
Your homework assignment: List the Constitutional amendments adopted between 1980 and 1994, and explain their relevance to the question at hand.
Of course ther isn't, Einstein. We have never had any. D'OH!
By way of contrast, I had to show my passport and surrender it at the hotel, on my fisrt visit to Europe in 1969. I understand that the authorities came by the hotel daily to peruse the passports of all foreigners.
I don't care about other countries.
I'll let Kerry and you worry about them.
What end times crowd? I just tune nutcases out...
Yes there is. We only need to use the technology available today instead of that which was available circa 1949.
Typical "progressive" crap. If it's not "perfect" it's not usefu.
Funny thing is, hundreds of millions of legitimate credit cards are daily verified around the world, using identical type of databases, and businesses have not abandoned the whole thing due to a small percentage of fraud.
As a bonus, constant checking produces a constant stream of busted criminals!
I consider the safety and lives of my family and neighbors more important than the "civil rights" of foreign killers.
Just think--if we only required foreigners to have a visa or passport in 2001, we could have prevented the deaths of 3,000 Americans.
Well, since you're comparing it to a credit card, then you're clearly advocating that it should work like a credit card (i.e. if you don't like it, don't get one). No problem.
OK. Since you are willing to put up with the same amount of National ID fraud as credit card fraud, how much would this amount of fraud effect a presidential ellection?
What about photo scans at public events?
Or how about carrying a backpack?

Depends on how many dogs and dead people get them. Do'H
Too many are sleeping - they will miss the wake up call.
