    • On September 21, 2011, by RetiredPublicSafetydotCom - Don't these Republicans get it? We The People have rejected their REAL ID Act that was snuck in via a Tsunami Relief bill and continue to do so. It's been pushed back from 2008 to 2011 and now to 2013. Why not just appoint the DHS Secretary King? No one votes for them, and they have all sorts of unlimited power. Why did we revolt in 1776?
