Real ID "What do you think about it?"

[CheezeFlixz]

they have some machine that takes your picture at an airport and you are naked basically.  it's an x ray machine orf sorts.  what a perfect metaphor for how we have lost our dignity from this

Flying is a choice not a requirement, if you don't want your picture taken ... don't fly.

As for your other comments about "no taxes" and "give us money" well it just makes my head hurt. But I'll give you a little tip to 'Ulther's Question' ... silica.

ulthar-  it is totally consistent.  they go around p**sing off countries and then hire a bunch of morons at the CIA who can't even do the one thing they are paid to do,  figure out when the next pearl harbor is going to be and prevent it.  read the 9/11commision report, the mistakes they  made are legion .  Clinton didn't want to offend some emir a mile away so he didn't take out bin laden.  bush was more interested in missile defense .  the bottom line is the government is not a meritocracy and we should limit how much trouble they can get us into as much as we can, if not completely. 


cheezeflix- so you want people with dignity to stay home? that's great for the economy!!  makes your head hurt?  I thuoght you were a conservative?  are you some new kind of pro tax republican I haven't heard of?

...I mean, I can't write a check anywhere without showing ID, so why should I be able to walk in and vote for the President of the United States without proving that I have the legal right to do so.

Because you're not promising to pay...

This is interesting... the North American Union and the "REAL ID":
