FReep On!

There's also a place to leave comments.
Remember, this is the same guy (Ron Sims) who forbid county employees from saying "Merry Christmas" this past Christmas.
He'll try any gimmick to get more federal dollars.
Let him know, loud and clear, that he'd better not go along with this one.

Definitely needs a good FReepin'!

Voted...I do remember THAT man.

[ppaul]

Pulled off breaking.
Why? Don't know.
Please bump to your ping list.

NO! = 73%

I don't like the "leading" phraseology either.

Additional evidence why King County sucks, as well as a wonderful example of the 'Rats vision of our future - totalitarianism. Now it is 74% against, and I wrote him a letter as well since I live in Pierce County.

Yeah. Good point.
As if a national ID card will "reduce the threat of terrorism"!
That's akin to saying that making federal employees out of the baggage checkers will accomplish the same thing.

My dog will vote this evening when I get to my other computer.

FReep this poll!

Why doesn't anyone ask if a National ID would INCREASE the threat of terrorism?

And I live in King County, home of the most corrupt county council I have ever seen, and Ron Sims, well... I don't have words sufficient...

It's going to happen and Americans, in a large way, will do nothing about it. Nothing.
