Montana governor Brian Schweitzer (D) declared independence Friday from federal identification rules and called on governors of 17 other states to join him in forcing a showdown with the federal government which says it will not accept the driver's licenses of rebel states' citizens starting May 11.
If that showdown comes to pass, a resident of a non-complying state could not use a driver's license to enter a federal courthouse or a Social Security Administration building nor could he board a plane without undergoing a pat-down search, possibly creating massive backlogs at the nation's airports and almost certainly leading to a flurry of federal lawsuits.
States have until May 11 to request extensions to the Real ID rules that were released last Friday. They require states to make all current identification holders under the age of 50 to apply again with certified birth and marriage certificates. The rules also standardize license formats, require states to interlink their DMV databases and require DMV employee to undergo background checks.

it's amazing when you watch the Reich Wingers squawk desperately about state rights regarding issues that displease them, but then crow loudly for federal control and subjugation in their faux war on terror ...
mark my words, the Hill will vote on national ID cards by the end of the year... but of course, we're all "crazy" for predicting their grand plan of a new world order...

I haven't read the Real ID Act, and therefore don't have an opinion on that specific bill. What I will say though, is that there should be some minimum requirements for a drivers license, since it is basically the certified form of identifying yourself as an American. I am a firm believer in states rights, but licenses should only be given to citizens, and should have disclaimers on them if they're given to anyone who is not. With 10-20 million illegals running aorund the country, and with some states handing out licenses to those people, there is no choice but to lay down some federal guidelines. I don't want a national ID, nor do I support one. I merely want licenses given to citizens, and if they are not, then I want them to have disclaimers on them. By disclaimers, I mean something that stipulates illegal, resident alien, etc. just like they say "Under 21" on them.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him." Leo Tolstoy, 1897

Police state here we come (actually, it's already here)... unless you're illegal alien. Then, you can do whatever the hell you want.
You know, because you're going to be the new work force and all (they tend to work for slave wage).
The next step after this; the chip.
Track and trace.

It truly boggles my mind that any state government would give an ILLEGAL ALIEN a drivers license. These people are DUI'ing our citizens to death with a license to do so.
