ID Card for Workers Is at Center of Immigration Plan

Couldn't get the National ID passed, so now we're calling it a "Worker ID", and this round is even more fun-lovin' than the last.


ID Card for Workers Is at Center of Immigration Plan

By LAURA MECKLER

Lawmakers working to craft a new comprehensive immigration bill have settled on a way to prevent employers from hiring illegal immigrants: a national biometric identification card all American workers would eventually be required to obtain.
Under the potentially controversial plan still taking shape in the Senate, all legal U.S. workers, including citizens and immigrants, would be issued an ID card with embedded information, such as fingerprints, to tie the card to the worker.

From the link:

Mr. Graham says he respects those concerns but disagrees. "We've all got Social Security cards," he said. "They're just easily tampered with. Make them tamper-proof. That's all I'm saying."

Uhh... I don't like it that my SS numbers *IS* already used as an identifier.

Who the heck's side is Graham on lately? He doesn't seem to be playing for either team since his "I'm the head of the GOP" comment when someone said the Beck or Limbaugh was the rep of the GOP.

Two thumbs down, Graham.

So, in the future Republican Graham envisions you will have to have government permission to hold a job, via his biometric ID. This is what happens when you have elect a republican at any cost. You get morons like Graham. As I recall, he's also a fan of cap and trade. There's the face of the new GOP. Small government? Bwahaha

Graham is a butthole, always has been, always will be. Don't mix up being conservative with Republican. There are conservative Republican and liberal ones. As opposed to Democrats which have liberals and ultra-liberals. Graham is solely and completely responsible for Justice Sotomayor being on SCOTUS and I for one will never forget that.

Couldn't get the National ID passed,

Real ID is a national ID card. They didn't have any trouble passing that, in Indiana at least. Thanks Mitch.

Uh, we already have this in the military.

I didn't mean to imply that I think that Graham is conservative, I meant that he acted that way in a large capacity until he reached his snapping point (the comment about being in charge). I never liked Graham on principle and have been warning friends/family about him for a long time. Justification tasted very sweet when he made that comment and I got to smile and say, "Told you so!"

Indiana didn't pass it. They complied with it. It's Federal.

Mitch is a traitor and can blow it out his posterior.

Graham is even worse.

I am getting to hate republicans just as much as democrats.

I've had enough of this insanity.

 

[semperfi211]

Worker ID card? I thought thats what my social security card is.

The more I read crap like this from .gov, the more I think I'm reading Revelation.

That part comes later.

I've had enough of this insanity.

But it's only just begun.

The more I read crap like this from .gov, the more I think I'm reading Revelation.

Funny you mention it.

15And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Nah. Couldn't be. Could it?

We're making a nice round dance

Uh, we already have this in the military.

Unless you're still in from the early '70s, you volunteered to be in the military and enjoy all such accoutrements .

This is not voluntary.

and Ross Perot gave us Bill Clinton.

I'll live with crappy RINO's over Liberals any day...

agree 100%

You say potato, I say potato. Indiana didn't block it as other states have rightly done.

 

[thompal]

Uh, we already have this in the military.

Yeah, but people in the military are federal employees, which puts them in a different class in various ways.

No Bush's 89 gun ban gave us Clinton.

I'll live with crappy RINO's over Liberals any day...

It's people like you that continue to vote for politicans who ban our guns and then complain about it later.

I'm personally glad barry beat mccamnesty. We'd have already had nationalized healthcare if he did. Same goes for romney, it'd be a done deal.

The positive part of having a flaming liberal in the whitehouse is that RINO's (including yourself) will stand against the liberal.

Liberals can almost be let off the hook for their insanity, it is a mental disorder. The 'conservatives' who makes excuses about RINO's cannot. Pride gets in the way of their reason and logic. That is a malice surpassing what the liberal tries.
