ORLANDO — Rudy Giuliani said he will not support any legislation to make it easier for illegal immigrants to stay in this country unless there is a requirement to force all immigrants to have "tamper proof" identification cards.

"We need to know everybody who is in the United States," the Republican presidential candidate said today.

Compromise legislation that is working its way through the U.S. Senate that provides ways for illegal immigrants to become documented workers and eventually U.S. citizens should not even be considered unless there is a requirement for a secure identification card, said the former New York mayor.

Giuliani spoke to more than 200 business professionals at a museum in downtown Orlando. Giuliani arrive more than an hour late for his luncheon speech, which followed a fund-raiser in Jacksonville.

And he also wanted working Americans to get fingerprinted as part of the process. Quite the authoritarian control freak, that Giuliani fellow.

I doubt Rudy would settle for fingerprints, he’d probably want iris scans and DNA samples.

Most. Authoritarian. Candidate. Ever.

Rudy matches Clinton in hair-splitting triangulation.

He'd probably also make it illegal for them to drive drunk and kill American families on the freeways.

People like rudy are the source of the problem. Allowing sanctuary cities creates a magnet for illegals and then the “rudys” claim nothing can be done. No thanks Duncan Hunter or Fred Thompson for POTUS.

There is no such thing as a tamper proof ID card. Anything man made can be duplicated and/or defeated.

I don't think Giuliani wants those ID cards only for immigrants:
On balancing the need for increased national security versus a free society, Giuliani said American inventiveness would prevail. "You can't lock everybody down and create curfews and make people wait three hours every time they travel," Giuliani said. But Giuliani said it may be time for a national identification system. "We are going to have to give up a little more of our privacy than we're used to," said Giuliani, who was term-limited last fall.
[Source: "Giuliani Reassures UCD Students ; Americans Have To `Relax,' Despite Sept. 11..." Rocky Mountain News. Denver, Colo.: May 15, 2002. pg. 4.A ]

While Giuliani shrugged off speculation that he may head the new Cabinet-level Department of Homeland Security, proposed earlier this month by President Bush, he said he supports security measures such as issuing national identification cards. "There's a trade-off that we have to make about what we perceive of as our privacy and protection of everyone else in society," he said. "That is not in any way an erosion of any kind of fundamental freedoms."
