Oh, good, let's start gassing Jews again. Hitler didn't finish all of 'em off. That's what they did in Germany, so it must be OK, right?

Why don't YOU go BACK to Germany if you think it's so great over there, instead of trashing the U.S. Constitution!

What is it about a national ID card that trashes the Constitution? Over the lifetime of an average U.S. citizen, he/she will have other forms of identification such as a driver's license, social security number, military I.D., passport, etc. Your gross overreaction to Nobbi's post notwithstanding, there are many good citizens, including yours truly, who would have no objection to some method of reliable identification which might eliminate the necessity of screening procedures at the airport for those persons holding such identification. If someone determines that method could be a national ID card, I'm for it.
