A lot being reported today about the behavior of mbrs at tonight's State of the Union speech & the hectoring of Obama by GOP SC Rep Joe Wilson. Wilson DID NOT heckle Obama at a State of the Union. It was a speech before a Jt Session of Congress on health care on Sept 9, 2009.

Security officials here at the Capitol have no structure..at any Capitol entrance..to run someone’s Social Security number. Such a request by Rep Gosar at such a late time would entail USCP/USSS to run Social Security numbers over the radio..on the spot..on hundreds of people.

Colleague Jake Gibson rpts DoJ has no record of Gosar's request to check status of those attending State of the Union. Fox is told some years ago that the Secret Service DID used to run numbers of invited guests. But that was the purview of the USSS.

GOP AZ Rep Gosar asks USCP/DoJ to consider checking ID's & arresting those with undocumented status who attend State of the Union. Wants USCP to arrest those using fraudulent Social Security numbers. Sr CapHill source tells Fox "We’re not going to do that”
