By

The current Real ID debate, which has been under discussion since 2005, clearly illustrates what a basket case the government of Maryland is ("Foes denounce driver's license bill as 'amnesty,' " Metro, March 29). It has been manipulated by the agents of foreign governments for the sole purpose of benefiting financially from the illegal acts of immigrants hiding within our borders. This amounts to a criminal enterprise, much like the Mafia. The sponsors of this inane bill should be kicked in the posterior for falling for a scam that any high school student would have seen coming.

The picture is painted more darkly by the two Democratic delegates. Delegate Kathleen M. Dumais of Montgomery County cannot figure out what "proof of legal presence" is. Is this person another Clintonite who is looking for the definition of "is"? Are all politicians morons? Do they exist to press their own personal agendas or to serve their constituents?
