Real ID cards: Big Government GOP-style

Those Communist Republicans are marching America into a bunker of totalitarianism, where Big Brother obliterates our State's Rights in favor of a one-size-fits-all national identification card. This unfunded mandate will hobble the states' budgets to the tune of billions, further reducing a state's ability to be free to decide for itself how best to issue driver's licenses. What's next, Commie Republicans, numbers tatooed on our arms (or crowns) and weapon registrations?

...at least, that's what the country's Republicans would be saying if it were the Democrats passing such a law.

But, more laws demanding more tax money from citizens that reduce the 50 states to mere clerks' offices is a-okay as long as a Republican congress and president passes them. Kentucky's license fees have already jumped from $8 to 20 this past year. Thanks, GOP, for ushering in all that "change" you boasted about back in 1994 and 2000. I thought you meant "different," but you only meant "more, and lots more of it...."
