Altanta examiner reports the same as you...Republicans spread more myths about health care reform bill page 58 with an alleged national ID card. http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-5738-Political-Buzz-Examiner~y2009m8d6-Republicans-spread-more-myths-about-page-58-in-health-care-reform-bill-with-a-National-ID-card.
I think the health care reform bill is one of the two most destructive pieces of legislation that could be imposed on our country, the other being Schumer’s yet-to-be-introduced amnesty legislation, which he is struggling to find co-sponsors for and which very likely WILL include a national ID of some sort. It is highly ironic that the inclusion of such a provision will be his bill’s poison pill and kiss of death. And it goes to show how little he understands about his own country. I also think the best way to fight the passage of these bill is with facts, not suppositions.
