What kind of review is this? You never tried to use the product. Useless "review" and it detracts from the overall rating of the item. Next time read the product specifications before you order and don't waste your time or ours, OK? In reply to: "Might be ok. Didn't open package. See below."

"Real ID" is a $Billion$Dollar$ boondoggle. People better wake up and start calling their elected officials state and national saying NO NO NO to Real ID or soon it will be here with its waiting lines and expensive sign-up getting shoved up your gazunga.

Do what you can to stop this nonsense
Write your senator or congressman...tell everyone you meet that all of your personal information, ALL OF IT, will be down-loadable from some new government database subject to all the theft and problems that goes with putting your personal info in yet another government controlled database. This can be stopped. The people have to raise their voices and not be led like sheep to the slaughter.
Government is FOR the people and this program works against people. In the frightened post 9-11 world a 250 million people will be targeted for government downloads in the hopes of stopping one or two bad guys. Worse yet, anyone can blow through this system just like they have in the past. Boondoggle...and it will end up costing YOU more than a passport to get one and renew it every 2 years. Estimates are $120 for this card per person in America, plus what comes out of the taxpayers pocket to keep another stinkin' bureaucracy in place.
Psssst....do something!

Students have the right to shut the *F* up
The court is right. Parents have a responsiblity to teach respect for teachers and respect for the other students in a classroom. Since many parents don't know how to do this, because their own parents never taught them how to respect anything, we have a big and growing problem.
Cell phones are subject to abuse. Students have a right to not be disturbed by other student's cell phones or conversations. One student's rights to talk on a cell phone end where the next student's ears begin.
Phones should be confiscated by teachers or principals and not returned until the parent of the child shows up to claim it and sign an acknowledgement of responsibility for their child...of any age.
A school is not a democracy. It is a chance for children to learn the basics of what they need to know to function in a democracy. It is clear that "schools are failing" when they turn out such twisted minds as I see in some of these forums, who believe their child should not be submissive to the teacher's authority. Bad parenting is what makes schools fail. And then students turn out to be more bad parents. An endless cycle that is stealing the civility from our country.

Telecoms committed criminal acts
And they do not get a get-out-of-jail-free ticket. GoPPigs seem to think that if their crooked executive, Bush, directs illegal actions it is as good as if King George directed his troops to invade American offices and steal their private information. Bush is not a king, he is an unelected fraud who has brought suffering on this country. No laws were rewritten by Bush edict to allow the telcoms to steal our info and do it again and again.
It's time these chickens came home to roost. Let's hope the Dems have the cahones to stop the Repigliken attacks on our privacy and bring those companies to justice. Let's hope lots and lots of good lawyers get them all by the balls and squeeze real hard!

The one-in-a-million aggravation
Bottled water--a bomb? Maybe one in a million or even 10 million--but you can't bring your own water on an airplane.
Shoe bomb? Maybe one in the history of the world. But you now take your shoes off for these federal sized pains in the ***** called the TSA.
Burning Batteries? Maybe one in a million, but every chance the government gets to affect your freedoms it will take unless you fight back and tell them you will bring your batteries, water, and shoes on the ****** airplane.
In the name of security, cowardice and stupidity have reared their ugly heads.

Now we know why elBushko kissed Lieberman on his bald forehead...
Looserman always plays the lapdog to power. Dems don't want him and goppers didn't nominate him.
I'm waiting for the German government to disclose what parts of the anti-civil liberty, anti-US Constitution, privacy-invading-without-the-advice-of -the-judicial-branch, aided in this months'-long investigation. We all know instinctively that it is another stinkin' lie from the most unpopular, un-elected ba$**** in the history of the republic. You're doing a great job, Brownie!
