Obama:Amnesty Bill that Rewards Illegals Means 'Everyone Plays by the Same Rules'
Breibart ^ | March 26, 2014 | Tony Lee

After House Democrats filed a discharge petition on Wednesday to try to force a vote on comprehensive amnesty legislation, President Barack Obama praised the bill as one that would "make sure everyone plays by the same rules," even though it would give special treatment to illegal immigrants who have broken the law.

In a White House press statement, Obama blamed "Republicans in the House" for refusing to "allow meaningful immigration reform legislation to even come up for a vote." He then applauded the "efforts of Democrats in the House to give immigration reform the yes-or-no vote it deserves."

"It would make sure everyone plays by the same rules by providing a pathway to earned citizenship for those who are living in the shadows," Obama said. "Immigration reform is the right thing to do for our economy, our security, and our future."

House Democrats need 218 signatures to force a vote, which is highly unlikely, for their H.R. 15 immigration bill that is essentially the Senate's comprehensive immigration bill with looser border security provisions. The discharge petition, at this writing, has 24 of the 218 signatures needed. Reportedly, 200 people have co-sponsored the bill, including three Republicans who have said they would not sign the discharge petition.

WTF! How can he say people who break the law, scramble across our border and suck taxpayer money, play by the same rules as people like my parents who waited their turn in a war torn continent, followed all the laws and and signed a stipulation that they would take no money from the government no matter how many children of theirs were born here, for FIVE years! I don't think that even the twilight zone is bizzare enough to make this idiot seem coherent.

So is he saying that none of us have to obey the law, since he doesn’t and the illegals don’t?

Only “those who are living in the shadows”

My American Dream is that those shadows are in Mexico...

(1) DMV offices issuing drivers licenses to illegals and (2) Mexican Consuls signing up illegals under Obama-Care.....is just a smokescreen.

Both of these are blatant, in-your-face voter fraud schemes.

healthcare.gov is also a voter registration site. Enrollees in Obamacare are also registered to vote under multiple identities---easily plugged into Dumbo voter rolls-----counted as voting even if they didn't show up.

MOTOR VOTER FRAUD No question, this scheme is another vote-crazed Dummycrat voter fraud. The Dum-dums fix it so that the licensee is also registered to vote. It's a good bet that these people are being licensed under several identities......easily be plugged into Democrat voter rolls and each identity counted on election day....whether they voted or not.

=================================================

NOTE Each state's Secretary of State is tasked w/ investigating voter fraud. Your state's SoS should be contacted WRT possible voter fraud. Obviously a Dem SoS will facilitate the coverup. However, many SoS's are Republicans.
