JERUSALEM Following the 9/11 attacks, President Obama's nominee for a top intelligence post advocated that to effectively combat terrorism, the U.S. government should implement a national identity system, "so we better know who is who."
In testimony before the 9/11 commission, Charles "Chas" Freeman, the U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia during the first Gulf War, also recommended conducting the war on terrorism primary as a law enforcement effort.
Freeman is slated to head the U.S. National Intelligence Council, or NIC, a crucial component of the U.S. intelligence apparatus. The NIC serves as the center for midterm and long-term strategic thinking within the American intelligence community. It provides intelligence briefs for Obama and key U.S. agencies and produces reports that help determine American policy on crucial issues, such as Iran's nuclear program.

How ironic.
Obama won’t be able to get one since he is an illegal alien.
Of course, President Hussein might have a problem since he would FINALLY have to come up with a Birth Certificate to apply. LOL
They only want this National ID to keep tabs on POLITICAL enemies. If they wan to know who’s who in our country SECURE THE BORDER.
I'm going to move to Mexico and come back here. They don't ask Mexican nationals for their papers. It doesn't pay to be a citizen of this country anymore. The government sees the populace as a paycheck and nothing more.
1. Social Security card
2. My US passport
great sources!!
Blah, blah, blah. House to house searches for guns and drugs would reduce crime. With our current constitution, that ain’t gonna happen. At least, not legally.
That is what people forget when they look at the individual freedoms taken away in England when they say we are headed down the same path. England’s government does not have to deal with the restrictions of our constitution.
Passport I can understand but the “Greatest Generation” should of never allowed the social security sham to happen.
Why doesn’t Obama just appoint Osama to a security post and be done with it?
Freeman has withdrawn.
From the guy who thinks the Tiananmen Massacre should have been bigger and sooner.
WAHOO!!!
I am who I say I am. Just like 0bama. I don’t have to prove anything to anybody. /s
Yup. It’s funny how different these threads are now that Zero is in charge. There are a lot of alleged “conservatives” on this site who are downright scary in their support of the police state as long as they thing “their” guys are holding the whip.
One down...
Am I missing something? Would that not destroy the demokkkrat vote manufacturing system??
