How the REAL ID Act is being Misrepresented by Media

[Pass this info on and call, fax your Senator by Monday a.m., and local media as well.]

" Real ID Act bars illegal immigrants from using driver's licenses for federal ID, tightens up asylum provisions and completes U.S.-Mexico border fence at Otay-Mesa."

This is the TOTAL SUMMARY and description the Orange County Register (CA), a conservative paper, gives the REAL ID Act of HR 418 going before the Senate. THEIR SUMMARY IS A TOTAL FRAUD AND MISREPRESENTATION OF THE CONTENTS OF THIS BILL, and they know it. Their position is this: "If you do not vote for this bill, the immigration problem will get worse". Again, this is total misrepresentation.

Note how they are USING the "Minute Man" issue to PUSH THIS BILL (in California especially), pretending that it is an immigration controlling measure, AND NOT MENTIONING HOW THIS WILL EFFECT EVERY AMERICANS FREEDOM OF TRAVEL, PRIVACY, AND STATES RIGHTS. This permits TOTAL control of the ID contents by Homeland Security, which will BIOMETRICALLY "PRE-BOOK" ALL "FREE AMERICANS" AS CRIMINAL SUSPECTS (fingerprint, eye scan, digital facial, etc), and could CHIP every American, on their DL, with RFID--total surveillance and tracking by Satellite or local DMV, i.e. "ON STAR" on every American's person (wallet, purse)! This would put every American on an electronic LEASH...THE DREAM OF the power-mongers who want every new toy and gadget to have Total Surveillance and control of every person. Is this "defending freedom" or erecting tyranny?

Secondly, this bill is being "packaged" for NO-DEBATE passage, being tied to Iraq War funding and possibly Tsunami Aid. Result? "IF you do not vote for this package, you are unpatriotic and uncompassionate".

Facts easily expose this fraudulent reporting and propaganda, in this bill passed with the same coercive force as the unread Patriot Act:
