IMMIGRATION ISSUE: OBAMA STILL DOESN’T GET IT


We have a Federal government that flatly and overtly refuses to abide by the law or to apply the law when it comes to the issue of illegal immigration.  Arizona, faced with an inundation of illegals across its southern border and an associated crime wave, was trying to enforce the Federal laws but got told by Eric Holder to butt out.  So, they created their own immigration laws that virtually mimicked the one the feds refuse to enforce and Obama and Holder promptly went on the offensive with court actions to quell the new Arizona laws. 

Several other states, even northern states, have enacted laws to deal with the subject of illegal immigration; Alabama was one of them.  Once again, Holder has filed court actions to stop the implementation of the new law, alleging that it invites discrimination against foreign-born citizens and legal immigrants. 

We are all aware of the tremendous drain on our economy these illegals create.  Not only are they availing themselves of free medical services and educational programs, but they take jobs away from Americans who are out of work and they are creating a tremendous prison over-population problem. Aliens who made it here legally are ticked off, because of the paperwork and delays they face.  

Any argument that these illegals pay their way through the payment of taxes falls on deaf ears in this quarter.  If you know that you may be rounded up and deported at any moment, why would you pay taxes?  If you fly under the radar and get paid in cash, how are you going to get nailed?  

We have an Administration that ignores the law, defies the public will and common sense. 

If we do not know who is legal or illegal in our country, why shouldn’t we discriminate? If we don’t know whether not the guy is here legally or has committed crimes, we have every right to protect ourselves and our self-interests.   

The Republicans are just as guilty for failing to come to grips with the issue as the Democrats are.  But, I seriously doubt that any Republican would take the issue to court on our dime and ask the court not to enforce our immigration laws. 

Once again, Obama and his lackeys continue to flaunt their arrogance and their ignorance.  They need to be removed. 

That’s MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
