Tim Sumner of 9/11 Families for a Safe & Strong America points out another fraud perpetuated by the Bush-McCain-Kennedy immigration scheme:
There is more proof of fraud within the proposed ‘Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007.’ Native born and naturalized employees will be required to show — as proof of legal status — their employers either a “United States passport or a driver’s license or identity card issued by a State, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, or an outlying possession of the United States that satisfies the requirements of the ‘Real ID Act of 2005.’” Yet no state or territory requires a person to show proof of citizenship to obtain a driver’s license or identification card.
No problem, right? The ‘Real ID Act‘ requires states to verifiy a person’s legal status before issuing a driver’s license or identification card. Yet there are problems:
1) Mandatory compliance with the ‘Real ID Act’ has been waived from May 11, 2008, to the end of 2009 by the Secretary of Transportation and the Act can be waived into infinity.
2) No state or territory is currently in full compliance with the Act.
3) Congress has provided less than half the funding needed to implement ‘Real ID’ and neither the states nor federal government will protect their own citizens; they simply refuse to pay the rest of the bill…
Read the whole thing. And chalk it up as reason number 999,999 to kill this bill.
Just say NO to Illegal Alien Amnesty!! Keep calling!! It’s NOT OVER!!

About time you got a new screen name!
They are slipping a lot of hurtful Communistic rules over on us in this evil bill. And meanwhile, back in the public schools, they are planning to photograph our children’s eyes, and fingerprint them! How much of this are we going to take, people?
I would LOVE to!! I have been posting with an explanatory tagline, but a new screen name would be preferred. How do I do that?
comprehensive = convoluted
“Oh, I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Illegal, that is what I’d truly like to be-ee-ee! For if I were an Oscar Mayer Illegal, everyone would be in love with me!”
Sorry. I can’t carry a tune, but I’m certain you all get my point! Grrrrrr!
Why the *F* do I have to show ID to prove I'm supposed to be here? Why shouldn't "persons of ambiguous national heritage", like those who can't speak English, be asked to prove THEY are supposed to be here?
Amnestyville Horror
Bingo! Unfortunately, I think if this comes to pass, Spanish will be preferred and if you and I don't learn to speak it, we won't be getting a job anyway.
Bush-McCain-Kennedy immigration scheme:
Ha,ha,geez at least when I post I give KENNEDY top billing on this “abortion”,you know, to kinda lessen the blame on the two Pub’s who’s name is attached to it !!!

I would advise everyone to Google the Real ID issue.
We do not want to each end up in more efficient central data bases as technology gets better and better.
The moment one hear’s someone say “Why not. If you are innocent you have nothing to worry about” you know you are revisiting 1930s Germany where the same attitude prevailed.
Avoiding terrorist nukes must not involve so much control and information over ourselves. I would just prefer to steer clear of living and working downtown Washington or NY but otherwise live free.
Everyone here needs to view there movie.

Thanks for posting this and my thanks also to Michelle for blogging on my site post today.
Ping!
Googling it brings up lost of CATO Institutes’ and ACLU’s phony “privacy” concerns. Why phony? Because the government already has all the information on U.S. citizens. What the ‘Real ID Act’ does is requires states to issue driver’s licenses and identifications using verifiable breeder documents or those licenses and IDs cannot be used to board a plane, enter a federal building, etc. They do not have to fully comply. They can also issue ones without the correct breeder documents do not those have to state they cannot be used for federal purposes.
People can choose between the two but entering a federal building and flying is not a Constitutional right. You and everyone doing those things have expectations of security and you either properly ID yourself or you should not get to do those things.
I could kick myself I am one for being on the for the methods of Hegelian watch.
Remember how many times we trusted Bush when the left was yelling how we were giving up liberties for security!
I used to always say the left and the right are controled by the say head!
But tried to have faith in the man GWB wanting to believe he had America’s interest at heart!
But I feel we were hoodwinked with that part of us wanting to think the best of someone is that we really being used by these snake in the grass to use our goodwill to achived their agenda!
Just one example going on

Well, the left constantly hurt itself when it concentrated on things like “the Patriot Act says the police can find out what you read in the library”.
A library is a public place that can have security cameras.
What the left should have said is that the Patriot Act can find out what websites you visited using your AOL account.
That would be where I draw the line.
The problem with the left is that they are mostly dummies who hate white male professionals and white male professional arguments.
They could have argued effectively against the Patriot Act if they had chosen the right parts of the law to complain about.
I also consider it a fundamental right to fly using the type of ID I have always used. That has usually been a passport, which I have to assume counts as a Real ID.
Freedom of movement is not in the Constitution? Let’s put it there. If a politician introduced a Constitutional Amendment calling for freedom of movement, he or she would win. The Republicans would NOT want to be on the wrong side of that issue.
Not enough planes are blown up to make me want to crack down on myself so much. ;-)
