Because resistance to REAL ID is so widespread, it was necessary for our Congressional gods and goddesses to come up with an alternative penalty for non-compliance.That’s how we got the new updated version of the Anti-Homegrown Terrorism (shut your mouth and sit down) Act, which has no limits on who it can target and persecute.
What I believe this is really about is not so much enacting such an illegal law like REAL ID, but instead, provoking civil disobedience and unrest.They want us to rebel!Bush needs an excuse to declare martial law and suspend the Constitution and Bill of Rights.He and his cohorts in crime knew full well that Americans’ steeped in the concept of freedom would not sit still for this;which also explains to me why we entered into the Civil Assistance Plan with Canada which will allow the use of their military against us on our own soil.Why would this plan have been agreed to at this particular time and with what in mind?None of this is accidental timing.
As usual our congress on, both sides of the isle have not only complied with the establishment of the coming police state, they have facilitated it.I have maintained for years that the terrorists we need to fear most are holding court inside the beltway.
As we enter the last half of 2008, it is becoming increasingly clear that whatever this rogue administration and congress has planned for our final demise, is about to take place. I fully expect to see sites like OpEd either seriously compromised or gone altogether.
We have little time left, if any at all. Stand up now or there will be no peace.
We do have a recourse. All we need is for one state to say we are standing for our rights. If the Fudal United States says different, then we no longer are under the Constitution. If we are not under the Constitution then we have 50 independent nations. No Federal Government, just a Confederation of nations with only such power as each state decides to give it. That is why the Constitution came about in the first place. We had 13 independent countries and a powerless confederation. In fact in adapting the Constitution two states held the power to withdraw as part of their agreement to form a Federation. Those states were NY and VA.

Vermont has a huge movement under way to leave the union. In Texas, a candidate who advocates Texas removing itself from the union got 1/4 million votes. In the Pacific Northwest another movement on to with draw.
I don't know that any of these efforts will succeed......but it points to a growing distance between government and the governed.
Personally, if Texas is successful one of the terms should be having to take Bush with them and the entire Bush clan.

On Jan. 26, 2007, Maine became the first state in the nation to pass a joint resolution demanding the repeal of the law. Similar bills are already pending in Montana, Georgia, Massachusetts and Washington.

In the article is a link current to 2oo8 that shows the states that have rejected fully, those that are rejecting and demanding repeal, and those who are in the process of deciding.
