That's what Ed Morrissey asks about this one that has Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis advising illegals of the number they can call to make sure they are getting their proper wages. Not, apparently, a joke.
Says Ed:
Does it occur to the White House at all that "undocumented" workers are breaking the law themselves? They shouldn't be exploited, but then again, they shouldn't be here to be exploited, either. At the same time that the Obama administration contemplates a lawsuit against Arizona to stop them from enforcing immigration law, they're working on a program that supports the people breaking that law, all while unemployment continues at a high rate long after their stimulus plans have run aground. Instead of enforcing the law - which is, after all, the raison d'être of the executive branch -- they're conspiring to help people break it, and with our tax dollars, no less.
Of course, this could be an elaborate ruse to find new sites to raid. The political fallout from that would be fun to watch, but alas, it seems that despite the cheesy graphics and extraordinarily bad concept, Obama and his team are serious about helping illegal immigrants get paid more for their work.
Is this not Aiding and Abetting a criminal?
Impeach Obama!
Impeach Obama? In this case, the right not to be exploited is a stronger one. They ARE here, and they do work hard at jobs others won't. They pay taxes, too. There are plenty of enemies. These people trying to better themselves and pursue the American dream are not.
Eric the word illegal means they are breaking the law.
They dont pay taxes, they send the money home.
When the illegals march again, they should bring out a giant scoop and then dump them over the border...
EVERY illegal alien working in this country has broken at least four federal laws: illegal entry, document fraud, false swearing, and failure to file and pay taxes.
Violation of ANY ONE of those laws would get a legal US citizen (you and me) prison time.
But for illegals, such serial lawbreaking is utterly ignored in Democrats' pursuit of another voting bloc...although such voting is illegal in itself. (OK, five federal laws.)
The Obama Administration no longer feels the need to camouflage their contempt or conceal their scorn for law-abiding Americans.
They disrespect and undermine our allies while brown-nosing our sworn enemies, attack our corporations, accuse those who disagree of racism (as they display it themselves) and scheme and plot to extort billions in new fees and taxes from EVERY American...INCLUDING the poorest, who they claim to represent against the 'rich'.
EricD -- What flavor was the Kool-aid that you drank?
Oh good so they have a phone number. It's simple.. just track the numbers that call in and roll out roll them up and drop them on the border to build our border fence and then tell them get back over or we'll shoot you. Nice and easy who ready for lunch? This running a country stuff is easy.
Look. I see it different. Is that how you generally engage people who don't share your view?
They DO pay taxes. It's withheld from their paychecks. The discrimination towards others is not limited to people from the South.
Your scoop method seems absurd. Can you come up with something realistic?
