How do you propose low income people pay for the passport? They're
not
cheap these days.

Yeah, we're in favor of voter fraud like what happened in 2000 in
Florida? right.

Fraud? Nope. Just a few mis counted votes, hanging chad and the fact
that Al gore kept demanding recounts until he was declared winner.
Total fraud. Yet after Bush was elected by the Supreme Court, loyal
Americans accepted the result. We didn't question that Bush was the
president. After 9/11, Bush had something like 90% approval rating in
the
polls. The vast majority of the world were sympathetic and supportive.
Instead of taking advantage of our remarkable position, Bush squandered
it in a war of choice. Tens of thousands died, and we're much worse
off,
politically, financially, and morally.

Now, answer the question.

Already did, sweetie.
No, you didn't:

How do you propose low income people pay for the passport? They're not

If we are to end up paying for health care for the poor, and not
including illegal immigrants, then I've no problem with providing the
poor a free passport. That could then be an ID requirement for the
free healthcare.

John H
Illegal immigrants are exempt from signing up for the various healthcare
programs winding their way through Congress. So, you don't mind a national
id card? That's quite a statement.
Saying, "That's quite a statement" is quite a statement.

I said I agree with everyone being required to have a passport. It
hasn't killed one European that I know of.
The problem with a national ID card is it takes away the Democrats best
election tool, voter fraud... They will never let it happen.

No, the problem(s) with a national ID card is that our basic freedoms
will be lost and gone forever.

Cost. They are estimating the program will cost upwards of $23 billion,
plus they'll have to run the program year to year. Thought you were for
SMALLER government?
I've had a passport for over thirty years. I know of no 'basic
freedoms' I've lost forever.

Do you have any idea WTF you're talking about?
Yes, I'm talking about a National ID card.
Issuing a passport to the poor would cost $23 billion a year? That's
pure horse**** and you know it.

John H
Again, a NATIONAL ID CARD.....did you READ it?
It is my responsibility to carry an id card, since I was a young boy.
Why should only certain folks be allowed to go without them now? So they
can game the system???

Jesus H. Christ!!! That's about as absurd as John saying that his
passport is the same as the national ID card that the goverment was
trying to push. You analogy of carrying ID isn't the same as an ID card
with a tracking chip, etc. What you are proposing is like the Nazi's in
Germany.


Why are you bringing up tracking chips? Did the Nazi's in Germany have
tracking chips? Or was it the Nazi's *not* in Germany that had the
tracking chips?
--

John H


Again, I guess it's over your head.


Is it over mine too, cause I haven't heard anything about tracking chips
but from Jon Stewart and Kieth Obermann, neither one really carries much
credibiity with too many folks...

Uh, maybe it's because that's what they WANT? That's the whole idea of a

The library thing fell apart because it was a stupid unfounded argument.

Even if the books you were checking out at the library were being
tracked you could have just pulled them off the shelf and read them
while at the library or you could have gone to a book store and paid
cash for the book.
