Hey, Teddy K - Got A Message For You!
It's from your good friend, Secretary Chertoff: We've got a host of measures in place, but we're starting to get some resistance. The 9/11 Commission said that in the hands of a terrorist, a phony document is a weapon. Yesterday someone brought into my audience four North Carolina driver's licenses that had been picked up. Each of them looked valid to anybody except someone who had a lot of sophisticated tools. They all had the same picture of the same person and they had four different names. As long as we allow driver's licenses to be at a level of security where you can basically get one made on any college campus in the country, we are throwing the door open for people who want to pretend to be somebody else.
Ted, we've been talking about this for quite some time, but you really need to get on this. At the very least, tell Lorna Youngs to quit handing out ODLs like they're candy. It'd be nice to be able to say that you're working hard on behalf of public safety and security. At least for once.
