Open Letter to Rick Perry on his Progressive Record

 
Ron-Paul-Vs-Rick-Perry-620x300

Governor Perry, let me be clear: It is not that you supported Al Gore that worries us.


It is that you supported Hillary Clinton's health care plan.


You pushed for federal bailout and stimulus funds.


You support welfare for illegal immigrants.


You tried to forcibly vaccinate 12-year-old girls against sexually transmitted diseases by executive order.


Ron Paul with Ronald Reagan
You raised taxes twice.


And, state debt has more than doubled in your tenure as governor, pushing Texas to the brink of our constitutional debt limit.


It's that you supported ALL of these bad ideas that are inconsistent with how most Republicans understand conservatism, yet you now try to swagger your way into the Tea Party.


Governor Perry, with all due respect, you have used great rhetoric. But you will have to answer to the voters of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and across the country as to why that rhetoric does not match your record.


~ Congressman Ron Paul

Real ID might not be as dead in the water as was orginally thought.

History

In 2005, both houses of Congress passed The Real ID Act, then signed by so-called conservative George W. Bush. The Act failed pass as a stand alone bill several times, but only passed when the sponsors had it tacked onto the back of an Iraq Defense spending bill.

In turn, thirty-four (34) states, including Virginia, enacted anit-real ID legislation that outlawed such provisions that were in the Act from becoming law in their state.

Virginia passed Anti-Real ID Act (SB 1431, HB 1587) which prohibits compliance with Real ID provisions. (Enacted 3/31/09)

Current Virginia Attorney General Ken T. Cuccinelli was the chief patron in the Virginia Senate and Delegate Bob G. Marshall was the Chief Patron in the Virginia House.

Other Senate Patrons: Emmett W. Hanger, Jr., Frederick M. Quayle, Jill Holtzman Vogel

Other House Patrons: Charles W. Carrico, Sr., Anne B. Crockett-Stark, Sal R. Iaquinto, Brenda L. Pogge

Which states enacted legislation and what such legislation entailed.

Dangers of Real ID
  • Real ID mandates RFID readable chips thta cna be read by any one who buys a reader.
  • Unfunded Mandates on the State governments costing Billions.
  • A central database that must be shared with all states, localities and in some cases foreign entities.
  • No statutory limitations on “official purpose”
  • Creates a federal identity document that every American will need in order to fly on commercial airlines, enter government buildings, open a bank account, and more. 
The language says that those who don't have it can't participate in "Federal Activity", which is rather vague language that could be stretched into anything that comes under Federal Jurisdiction.

Here is a list of a few things that come under Federal Jurisdiction, law or oversight:

Getting a loan to buy a home, opening a bank account, getting any regular loan, getting a student loan, a car loan, refinancing your home, buying a gun, selling products across state lines, flying in a plane, driving your car (if your doesn't offer a state Drivers license alternative to real ID), getting a JOB, possibly crossing state lines (especially if the next state doesn't recognize your non-Real Id state license) and the list goes on and on and on.

Real ID Resurfaces

Computerworld.com reports:

"A controversial 2005 bill designed to create a national standard for driver's licenses may not be quite as dead in the water as many might have assumed, according to a report released this week by the Center for Immigration Studies." (Read More Here)

It goes on to say how the Federal government is trying everything they can to re-implement this draconian Nazi style identification system which will limit your freedom of choice and movement . The States rejected it but they keep trying to find new ways to enforce it on us against the wishes of the states and the People.

So tell every one you can to call their Local, State and Federal Officials and urge them to fight a national ID of any kind.
