"The government cannot create that identity infrastructure," Dempsey said. "If it tried to, it wouldn't be trusted."

Ha....YA THINK?????

Get a load of this BS. But don't worry, it's not about a national ID card or a government-controlled system....no....no...it's just for your SECURITY and PROTECTION. Don't worry. Big Brother is out there making sure he's protecting you from all the big bad boogie men on the Internets.

Never mind we have to have an internet I.D. but NOT to vote! .....G.D. A-HOLES!!!

Schmidt stresses that anonymity will remain on the Internet, saying there's no chance that "a centralized database will emerge."

translation: they've had one for years, now time to use it.

So are we going to be tattooed on our foreheads or right forearm? Would make it easy then we can just be scanned.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Are they going to tattoo it on our forearm?

[RightGeek]

OK FR posters, make sure to put your official Obama Internet ID in your tag lines

[Rumplemeyer]

Would someone please point out to me exactly where in the Constitution the Federal Government is authorized to do this? Just wondering...

We must make sure we undo all the sh## that was done in the last 4 years by this criminal bastard and his band of cretans

Is Howard Dean on his staff?

Fifteen months before Dean said he would seek the presidency, however, the former Vermont governor spoke at a conference in Pittsburgh co-sponsored bysmart-card firm WaveSystems where he called for state drivers' licenses to betransformed into a kind of standardized nationalID card for Americans. Embedding smart cards into uniform IDswas necessary to thwart "cyberterrorism" and identity theft, Deanclaimed. "We must move to smarter license cards that carry securedigital information that can be universally read at vital checkpoints,"Dean said in March 2002, according to a copy of his prepared remarks."Issuing such a card would have little effect on the privacy ofAmericans."

Dean also suggested that computer makers such as Apple Computer, Dell, Gateway and Sony should be required to include an ID card reader in PCs--and Americans would have to insert their uniform IDs into the reader before they could log on. "One state's smart-card driver's license must be identifiable by another state's card reader," Dean said. "It must also be easily commercialized by the private sector and included in all PCs over time--making the Internet safer and more secure."

It’s unconstitutional. Pure and simple. Hussein can poke the National ID where the sun don’t shine.

[trumandogz]

Don’t worry, this will not happen as long as the Republicans control the House and have almost 50 members in the Senate.

Tyrants fear anonymous criticism .....like what we have here.
