"I rise in strong opposition to HR 418, the REAL ID Act. This bill purports to make us safer from terrorists who may sneak into the United States, and from other illegal immigrants. While I agree that these issues are of vital importance, this bill will do very little to make us more secure. It will not address our real vulnerabilities. It will, however, make us much less free. In reality, this bill is a Trojan horse. It pretends to offer desperately needed border control in order to stampede Americans into sacrificing what is uniquely American: our constitutionally protected liberty."

Even Syria's President Asad laughs at America for not maintaining our own borders but expecting him to police his.  Hypocrites that we are!  The following is an except from a CNN interview by Christiane Amanpour with Syria's President Bashar al-Assad.

"Amanpour: The United States is extremely angry with you and your government and accuses you of facilitating, providing safehaven and now actively supporting the insurgency in Iraq. What are you going to do to stop doing all that, to stop allowing the insurgents into Iraq?"(61)

"Al-Assad: I wouldn't say this is true. It's completely wrong. You have many aspects of the problem. The first aspect is that no country can control its borders completely.  An example is the border between the United States and Mexico; and many American officials told me that they cannot control the borders with Mexico but they end up saying you should control your borders with Iraq."(61)   ZZZiiiiinnnnnggg!  Right on the money wouldn't you say?
