    it works well, too, if you're playing Bullshit Bingo during one of O's speeches... or pretty much any other candidate's or congressmonkey's...

    Regulation Nation... politicians are always looking for ways to justify their existence...things to fix... except all of the things they have already broken.

    This rocket scientist representative reminds me of the congressman that thought that Guam might flip over if too many people reside on one side of the island.

    May I suggest that all political candidates be required to pass a common sense test the next time they run for office. I would be happy to design such a test.

    This is also right up there with the congress woman who, wanting to ban magazines by ceasing their manufacture, said that after the bullets were all used up there would be no more of them.

    Customers of what? The bank? Evidently that means a customer of an ordinary merchant.

    This although, as the article says, doing up a phony ID is much easier than changing one's fingerprints.

    Hey, Petie! Why don't you start by making that ObamaCare site work right first?

    OK, just a bit of clarification. Isn't it easier to forge a picture I.D. than a fingerprint? This is right up there with the congressman who thought that too many people on a Pacific island might cause it to capsize. Unfortunately, this seems, more and more, the type of moronic elected officials we've been putting into office.

    There may well be a case here of a goverment official wanting the citizenry to only use government ID that he and his cronies control. IE: it is a power and control issue passed off as "we are just trying to protect you......because you are too stupid to look out for yourself!"

    So Missouri is catching up to Venezuela on Venezuela's most offensive affront.

    What a numbnut. He must've majored in stupidity in college. His application of it is clearly shown.
