Obama and illegals

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/01/28/MNH1UL57Q.DTL

Obama supports drivers licenses for illegal immigrants. So that sounds like an enlightened position... But lets take it a few steps further...
If they get a drivers license, that presupposes that they will purchase cars, but will insurance companies sell them car insurance? Will illegals even know to get insurance on the car? What if they dont get insurance and someone is an accident with them? Who will pay for the damage? Not the taxpayers again?

Again, sounds good, but the reality of the matter is that it isnt a good idea...

If Obama's intent is to give illegals some sort of identification that helps the government know who they are, he should adopt Guiliani's idea of a national id card...
