I KNEW IT! I read words to this effect a few months back in an article but couldn't find anything recently to back it up. A friend related this info but I didn't realize they got it from the Star.

Key passage here:

A passport application receipt will help, but those travelers should also bring a photo ID and proof of citizenship, said Roger Maier, Customs and Border Protection spokesman. U.S. citizens won't be denied entry, fined or punished if they don't have a passport or other approved document, Winkowski said. They will be given a reminder and could face delays, but nothing more.
"We are still going to admit you if we are satisfied with your citizenship and identity," said Winkowski, who expects a smooth transition this week.

I know a lot of people who are passing on the Roger Clyne show because they couldn't get their passport in time or just forgot to. Thanks for passing that on.

Tell everyone you know to get a da*% passport or passport card. The more people sail right through with the proper paperwork the easier for all of us to cross that congested border. They won't turn folks back who can reasonably prove they are US citizens, but every one they have to scrutinize means another 10 minutes idling in Sonoyta for me and my passport.

Agree with surf 100%. We arrived at the border on 6.8.09 about 12:15 and didn't get through until almost 1:00. The border agent said maybe 50% of the people had either a passport or passcard. Major holdup all because people don't want to spend any $. Heck, if you can afford gas, food, and lodging for a trip to rocky point, you can afford to get a passcard and not make the rest of us miserable waiting in line...

As if US citizens having a passport helps or solves anything. If all the ID I carry isn't enough to convince the officials of my own country I live/belong here, then maybe I don't need to come back....hmm
