Obama Pushes Work Permits for Illegals....What????

Uhhh....yup...

Despite the U.S. currently reflecting unemployment of well over 9% (actually MUCH higher as this only counts the people actually LOOKING for work and not those who have given up or run out of unemployment benefits) the Obama administration today announced that it no longer wishes to pursue deporting illegal aliens who have "not committed a crime and aren't considered a threat to public safety" to remain in the U.S. indefinitely and additionally give them the aforeto prohibited right to apply for a worker's permit!

First off, I'd like to point out that on the face of this statement there is a glaring problem.  Stating that they don't want to pursue deportations for those illegals who haven't committed a crime is impossible by its own definition.  They are illegals and have already committed a crime by setting foot on American soil illegally and therefore have committed a crime the moment they get here!  Pay that no mind though, the current administration wouldn't want to alienate (use of the word intentional) any more Hispanic voters as it knows it needs them in droves to get re-elected.

Which is really what this move is all about.  Evidently the politicos have decided that pandering to the Hispanic voters in the U.S. is more important than showing the overall American public that the administration is working to get employment down.  Afterall, if you were looking to lower unemployment for American citizens would you suddenly add a massive new number of available workers to the pool of those looking for jobs?  Not only that but this essentially gives illegals all over the world even more incentive to come here and take jobs away from Americans.  Obama is saying--Hey, as long as you don't stab anyone, you are free to enter our country illegally and then get a work permit to try and get a job!  I know if I lived in the Sudan, Bolivia or Mongolia, coming to the U.S. even without a job here I'd be better off than staying where I was--Plus...Hey!!  Free health care!!

But, then again, this is our own fault.  This is what you get when you devolve into a country of takers instead of givers.  With fully 50% of the nations population not paying a SINGLE cent of Federal Income tax, over 50 million (that's 1 out of 6) people in the country on food stamps and 1 in 3 children living in a household where NEITHER parent has a job...well...when you don't demand better, you won't get better...
