If you owe Child Support and other charges under child support title YOU are NOW on the FBI/Homeland Security Terrorist Watch List....
"...The Terrorist screening center is an FBI operation which maintains a constantly updated watch list of people suspected of being terrorists, or terrorist associates...."
Remember those 19 deadbeat dads who hijacked the airliners?
Nothing!
Wait for another source.
HUMMM, interesting web sit. All of their advertizers were promoting instant passports. Now just exactly how is THAT done.
As far as I know, the quickest you can get a passport is 24 hours, but you have to pay through the nose to get one that quickly...
This is a massive abuse of the Patriot Act, not to mention being ferociously anti-male.
And, gee, wouldn't you know? After the state has destroyed a valuable institution, the next step is to put dear old dad on the terrorist watch list for failure to pay.
if you put ketchup on a hotdog, you could be on that list too
lol
After the hearing Moss told United Press International that the department already checked all passport applicants against a database that contained the names of nearly 50,000 fugitives, and 3 million deadbeat parents who owed child support...."It's not that (people in the database or on the terrorist watchlist) automatically won't get a passport," said Moss, "they're just people we want to take a closer look at." He pointed out that those who owed child support were ineligible to be issued a passport until they had paid or in some states until they had made arrangements to do so. "We don't want to issue a passport to anyone who is going to use it to flee the jurisdiction, or skip out on child support they owe," he said.
Not a thing, pretty obviously. Do we have any idea whether this is accurate? Putting 3 million Americans on a watch list...hmmm
How is this anti-male?
The Reverend Sun Myung Moon speaking at the Sixth International Congress
"The ultimate goal of Professors World Peace Academy is to help create a just and harmonious world order by encouraging scholars to search for new ideas and methods of achieving peace and prosperity.
"It is an absolute requirement in this era that education for the coming generation be shaped by the firm moral convictions of their professors, who must communicate a clear sense of values."

BS, this is simply enforcing EXISTING laws.
Not that any facts will stop the knee-jerk bitch and moaners.
Statistics show that most deadbeat dads have never married the mothers of their children (not necessarily their fault), most do not have jobs or jobs that pay enough for them to send payments....and still Social Services hounds them, jails them, spends billions a year to squeeze money from these "turnips" as they are known in the industry.
So perhaps, these fellows fit some sort of desperation profile of those who might turn to crime in order to get money. Many are not very moral people, not very loyal, are irresponsible by definition. Could they be paid to lug bombs around? Some could.
Exactly.
You thought all this Terrorist stuff would only be used against actual Terrorists? Sucker.
Details, DETAILS. Facts are your friend. But apparently not to some.
Is there any way to find out if a particular name is on that list prior to applying for a passport?
