It appears on the flip side of 4.6 million licenses issued since December 2006. It was conceived by a national group of motor vehicle officials for possible use as an authenticating mark. North Carolina was the only state to use it, in what DMV calls a pilot program.<BR/><BR/>U.S. homeland security officials decided not to take the hologram nationwide, so North Carolina stopped putting it on new licenses this week.<BR/><BR/>The two-year experiment cost the state $1.5 million.<BR/><BR/>Topics: Illegal Immigration, North Carolina, Division of Motor Vehicles, hologram, security, foil stamp, DMV, pilot program, Marge Howell, driver's licenses, erase borders, illegal immigrants, North American Union, William Gheen, Americans for Legal Immigration PAC, Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America, Rep. Ron Paul, undermine U.S. sovereignty, Real ID, hologram program dropped<BR/><BR/>October 22, 2008<BR/>Bruce Siceloff<BR/>The News & Observer<BR/><BR/>"What this hologram was supposed to do was to show that this was an official document of a state DMV," said DMV spokeswoman Marge Howell. "That was the idea in the first place, to put them on all licenses across the country to help law enforcement officers readily identify them."<BR/><BR/>The hologram was linked last year with a purported scheme to erase national borders, flood the land with illegal immigrants and create something critics call a North American Union.<BR/><BR/><B>William Gheen of Raleigh, president of the Americans for Legal Immigration PAC, said the DMV hologram resembled the logo of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America. He said the group promotes a speedier flow of goods and people across the continent.</B><BR/><BR/>Texas Rep. Ron Paul has criticized the partnership as an "unholy alliance" of business and government leaders seeking to undermine U.S. sovereignty.<BR/><BR/><B>Gheen also objected to the DMV hologram as part of the federal government's "Real ID" effort -- a security program that includes digital face recognition and other identification technology. He said the foil stamp gave DMV the ability to add microchips that emit radio tracking signals.<BR/><BR/>"We believe illegal immigration can be reversed without subjecting law-abiding Americans to this kind of Big Brother ID tracking," Gheen said.<BR/><BR/>"We're pleased to see this potential tracking device removed from the licenses. We hope to see North Carolina withdraw from the Real ID program."</B>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3929097902645862162.post-49112755561958216752008-10-28T03:50:00.000-05:002008-10-28T03:50:00.000-05:00Faye, yea, it is a little different not congregati...Faye, yea, it is a little different not congregating in one place. I think you are right. There are a lot of things (collectively) that are going on and people aren't connecting the dots to draw out the bigger picture.<BR/><BR/>As long as the media keeps on showing us garbage day in and day out with with the in between mention of issues (only mention, no call for real action - oh, ah), they'll continue til the check-list is complete.<BR/><BR/>Very disheartening. I continue to fax my reps though. They are up for re-election, I'll be sure to vote against the ones known to have done more harm than good - even if some of it is <I>after</I> the fact.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3929097902645862162.post-30749986461468612222008-10-24T09:41:00.000-05:002008-10-24T09:41:00.000-05:00Hi, litew8!

I guess I should add one more now... "There Went Your 401K." "There Went Your Standard of Living" is fast on its way. It's disgusting sitting back and watching all this happen, especially when the plans are right out there for anyone to see and the implementation is in our daily papers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331244178779098768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3929097902645862162.post-64339397078915905142008-10-23T13:37:00.000-05:002008-10-23T13:37:00.000-05:00Great article Faye.Great article Faye.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
