My immediate reaction and thought was WHY the CANADIAN BORDER such an issue, when it is the SOUTHERN BORDER with MEXICO that is the SIEVE?!!!!!
Could the "War on Terror" be a FRAUDULENT LIE, readers?
"Six senators urge delay of new ID rules" by Wilson Ring Associated Press January 29, 2008
MONTPELIER - Six senators from northern New England and New York asked the US Department of Homeland Security yesterday to delay implementation of stiff new identification requirements for people entering the United States by land from Canada.
In a letter to Secretary Michael Chertoff, 19 senators said commerce will be stifled and lives disrupted if federal officials go ahead Thursday with plans to end the practice of allowing people to enter the US after showing a document, such as a driver's license, and declaring their nationality.
Who gives a shit? We got terrorists to fight, dammit!
But federal officials say the "honor system" must end now.
Sig Heil!
"There is enormous downside and very little upside to the new hoops they want to put everyone through on the Canadian border," said US Senator Patrick Leahy, Democrat of Vermont. "These paper padlocks won't make us safer."
And one does wonder why the focus on New England in particular.
Maybe we should secede and join Canada.
I'm offering that motion right now?
Any seconds?
Implementing the new rules now would violate the spirit of a law passed last month that delays until June 2009 a requirement that people carry passports or similar documents when entering the United States by land or sea, they said.
The senators want Chertoff to delay the new ID requirements until the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative is fully implemented.
Part of the North American Union, right?
Despite the fancy name and shit, that's what this is all about!
CONTROL of a HEMISPHERIC POPULATION (Sig Heil)!
The extra time is needed to ensure the requirements are implemented smoothly and do not disrupt commerce and lives along the border, they said.
Terrorists! Terrorists! Terrorists!
How could "commerce" be more important?
And "lives" are being saved from "terrorists," so why the complaining, right, readers?
WTF?
"If these new requirements go into effect at the end of this month, travel to and from Alaska and other border states will be severely crippled," said US Senator Ted Stevens, an Alaska Republican. "I strongly urge Secretary Chertoff to reconsider his decision to move forward with this ill-conceived plan."
That a REPUBLICAN saying that, folks!
Yeah, and what up with the NORTHERN FIXATION?!
The "illegals" and the WIDE-OPEN, POROUS BORDER is SOUTH with MEXICO, not Canada!!!!
WTF, readers?!
Haven't the Canadians always done a better job than the Mexicans?
WTF?!
Why we getting on their case?
Laura Keehner, Homeland Security spokeswoman, said people have known for months the new system was being implemented. "We remain steadfast in our commitment to rejecting the honor system when deciding who to let into the United States. That's why we are moving forward with new procedures starting this Thirsday, Jan. 31," Keehner said. "This department cannot ignore the lessons that we learned from Sept. 11, 2001, nor can we faithfully strengthen border security yet leave this vulnerability in status quo."
Translation: Advance the police state forward no matter what!
Your papers please!
And Sig Heil, too!!!!
All based upon a SHIT LIE!!!!!
A spokesman for US Customs and Border Protection, the agency tasked with the new policy, said he was not expecting any problems Thursday. No one will be denied entry if they don't have the required paperwork, he said.
Then what's the hubbub, bub?
Travelers who don't have the required identification will be given a flier explaining the new rules. It is unclear how long the grace period will last.
In Vermont, people fear the new requirements could hinder commerce and disrupt a way of life in which people cross with few formalities.
Then WHERE are the "terrorists?"
Why aren't they STREAMING ACROSS the Canadian border -- like the illegal workers pouring over the Mexican border, 'eh?
In Maine, the Merchants Association said it supported efforts to delay the pending border requirements."
And that's the ticket to defeating this Anti-Christian Fascism!
Getting the COSTS to BUSINESS for this PHONY "WAR on TERROR" that this SHIT FASCISTA PLAN based upon LIES is FINISHED!!
