You won't believe what the Pubs are slamming Obama for NOW!
Edited on Fri Oct-10-08 12:58 PM by napi21
I just received this BS in an email from NewsMax. Yes, I get their emails precisly for this reason. I want to know what the hell they're up to!

Even I was surprised by THIS ONE!

Not after 9/11.

Did you know that Mohamed Atta, the 9/11 ring leader, had a valid Florida driver’s license?

Did you know 13 of the 19 hijackers had obtained valid driver’s licenses? Armed with these licenses, eight of the hijackers even registered to vote!

Here is the shocking fact: Obama strongly supports giving illegal aliens in America driver’s licenses.

He said as much during two Democratic debates earlier this year.

The head of Homeland Security said such thinking was dangerous for national security.

Even Hillary Clinton backed away from Obama’s radical driver’s license plan.

Obama’s position is not a new one: We discovered that Obama has been a major proponent of driver’s licenses for illegals since his days as an Illinois state senator.

We have no doubt that, as president, Obama will also champion this radical plan.

With Osama bin Laden still at large, with al-Qaida promising “spectacular” attacks on the U.S homeland, with the threat of them using weapons of mass destruction against our cities — biological, chemical, and nuclear — can we risk putting such a man in the Oval Office?

Doesn’t he remember what happened on 9/11? More than 3,000 Americans were murdered.

Doesn’t he want to prevent that from ever happening again?

If he supports driver’s licenses for illegals, the answer is clear.

We need to inform millions of Americans about this man and his risky judgment.

We are days away from our new TV ad exposing Obama’s support for driver’s licenses for illegals.

But we need your help. We’re already preparing our ad budget in key swing states. The more you can donate to us today, the more we can spend in the coming days.

And don’t forget, you can donate a maximum of $5,000. Your spouse can also make a $5,000 donation.

With $5,000 we can saturate a whole city/market in a key swing state for one whole night.

But even $1,000 helps us. With $1,000 we can run 10 TV ads in a key market.

Whatever you can give, $500, $250 or any amount, can make a huge difference.

We at the National Republican Trust PAC appreciate your support and love of our country. We will not fail you. Too much is at stake.

Help Expose Obama's License Plan — Go Here Now



Thank you.

Yours for America,

Scott Wheeler
Executive Director



They even had a pic of Ata's Florida DL!

1. I also support giving them drivers licenses
They can't buy insurance without a license and I would rather they be insured than uninsured.

5. Me too
I got hit by an undocumented driver. My choice was to report the guy and have his car taken away, get him in a world of trouble and him possibly deported or walk away and pay for the damage myself. I paid the damage myself for being rear-ended. If that man had could get a license and insurance, it wouldn't have cost me anything.

What scares me is how many people are buying into it!!!! There only has to be ONE really crazy nutjob out there to cause a true tragedy here.
If this should happen...God forbid a million times...I hope that McSame and the barracuda are brought up on charges of treason.

4. I got that one too. I like to know what "they're" up to and it is sickening
most days. I don't suppose the Newsmax geniuses bother to think about how these 911 hijackers got into the U.S. in the first place, some being on watch lists and all, or how they over stayed their visas and the INS hadn't a clue in hell as to where they were. And, when they did know the government (FBI) didn't seem to care. Why am I preaching to the choir? Newsmax does that to me!

10. One slight problem with the arguement: all were here in the USA legally.
http://www.nilc.org/immlawpolicy/cdev/congrssdev018.htm

Sensenbrenner also has asserted that the 9/11 terrorists were able to carry out their attacks because, collectively, they were able to obtain 63 state driver’s licenses. His claim has been widely circulated by anti-immigration groups such as the Federation for American Immigration Reform and in Congress. But the claim is contradicted by both a 9/11 Commission staff report and a fact sheet recently issued by the 9/11 Public Discourse Project (9/11 PDP), a nationwide public education campaign created by the ten members of the 9/11 Commission (a description of the 9/11 PDP can be found on its website: www.9-11pdp.org).

The fact sheet makes clear that the claims Sensenbrenner has made about the number of licenses the hijackers obtained before 9/11 and the conclusions he draws from their use by the hijackers are both incorrect. The fact sheet reports that, in fact, the hijackers obtained only 13 (not 63) driver’s licenses, and that 2 of those were duplicates. According to the fact sheet, they also had 21 U.S.A.- or state-issued ID cards. However, the fact sheet itself is somewhat misleading in including so-called U.S.A. ID cards in this number. These are not government-issued ID cards; they are cards made by a private company that sells deceptively real–looking ID cards. So the number of government-issued ID cards was actually somewhat lower than the number cited by the commission and far lower than the number cited by Sensenbrenner.

According to the 9/11 PDP fact sheet, all the terrorists’ driver’s licenses were legal, although not all were legally obtained. At least five of the hijackers obtained their licenses by falsely stating that they were residents of the state that issued them. All the hijackers entered the U.S. with valid immigration documents, so a law preventing undocumented immigrants from obtaining licenses would have had no effect on the hijackers’ ability to obtain licenses.

12. I didn't think the hijackers were here illegally. Didn't they have visas? Which
is why they had licenses. Apples and oranges.
