I remember when driver's licences didn't have photo ID. We survived anyway.

This is nuts. Conservative Muslim women who do not go out without their face covered also do not go out in public without male escort, and do not drive cars without one. In general, they are not allowed to drive cars or operate machines at all. (That's man's work, infidel! )

If she's gonna stand on her religion, let her stand by it too.

No license for masked drivers!

alondra,

I'm so glad to see you posting again on the forum! My feeling is that if you cannot or will not show your face for something as important as a driver's license, then you shouldn't be driving! But what troubles me about your thread is that it's too narrow-minded! The last time we saw you on the forum you really had some incredible thoughts that you put before us all! About your past, about our country as you knew it growing up, and what it is now. You left a lasting impression on a lot of people here. I even think I wanted to vote for you for P resident!

I'm afraid for our country. I'm afraid for it's future. I'm afraid that we can have a guy like Bush, or anyone else for that matter, in office for four years without recourse!!!! We don't have the luxury of refurendums, or, the word alludes me now, the ability to have a popular vote on a given important issue! I truly believe the Bush administration is out of control! And there's nothing in our Constitution to stop him!

We've got twelve aircraft carrier groups throughout the world! Is this overkill or what?! Our infrostructure is shot to hell. We have roads that beyond repair, bridges that were last worked on during the WPA! The thirties! We've got to get our priorities in order. We've got to our "Ducks" in order. What's wrong with us anyway?!

glohworm, I think the word you are looking for is plebiscite.

Thanks willy',

That's one great flaw our founding fathers never considered in our constitution; the ability to have our citizens vote on important issues as they ocurr! Obviously they had no way of voicing their opinions at the time like we do now, but in this world of instant communication, we could very easily voice our views. This, to me, would be a truly representative government!
