Re Voter Motor: The Democrats are AFRAID of the Real ID cards because if they aren't mandated by the Feds, then the Dems can continue voter fraud, plus the Real ID cards could possibly prevent terrorists from coming in!!!

Any state that doesn't accept the National ID cards should suffer:

1) NO Federal Money for Terrorist protection.

2) NO citizen should be able to vote in a Federal Election without having to follow National Voting guidelines!

Otherwise the States that do comply with the Real ID Law are penalized because their voters will have to have the "Real ID" proof, and the other states won't.

Are those states ALL Dem States?

Already, WA State, and many other states offer this type of State ID card, EVEN if you don't drive.

How to get a Washington State ID card
To apply for a Washington State identification card:

Visit a driver licensing office.
Bring with you:
proof of residence and identity.
$20 fee (cash or check).
Teens
If you are under 18 years old, you may bring your parent or guardian with you to prove your identity and Washington State residence. Your parent or guardian must live in Washington State and must be able to present a Washington State driver license, ID card, or other acceptable documents to prove residence.

How to get an Enhanced ID Card
See Steps to getting your EDL/ID to learn how to get a Washington State Enhanced ID Card, which is an acceptable alternative to a passport for re-entry into the U.S. at land and sea border crossings.

The Real ID Act says that, starting around May 2008, Americans will need a federally approved ID card--a U.S. passport will also qualify--to travel on an airplane, open a bank account, collect Social Security payments or take advantage of nearly any government service. States will have to conduct checks of their citizens' identification papers, and driver's licenses likely will be reissued to comply with Homeland Security requirements.

In addition, the national ID cards must be "machine-readable," with details left up to Homeland Security, which hasn't yet released final regulations. That could end up being a magnetic strip, an enhanced bar code or radio frequency identification (RFID) chips.

The votes in Maine on the resolution were nonpartisan. It was approved by a 34-to-0 vote in the state Senate and by a 137-to-4 vote in the House of Representatives.

Other states are debating similar measures. Bills pending in Georgia, Massachusetts, Montana and Washington state express varying degrees of opposition to the Real ID Act <<<<<<<<<<<<<<snip
