Obama's Attorney General Nominee: Illegal Immigrants Have a Right to Work in The United States
Townhall ^ | Jan 28, 2015 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 01/28/2015 5:52:42 PM PST by george76

resident Obama's recent executive action on illegal immigration, deferring deportations and giving millions of individuals access to work permits, Social Security, Medicaid and other benefits, was front and center during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Capitol Hill Wednesday where attorney general nominee and U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch testified.

Under questioning from Republican Sen. Jeff Sessions, Lynch argued that regardless of an individual's lawful status in the United States, they should have the right to work.

...

Attorney General Eric Holder, who Lynch will replace if confirmed, has openly stated he believes amnesty for those who entered the country illegally is a civil right.

ANY senator who votes for this wretch is a traitor, even more so if they are Republican.

That makes it easy. Voting “no” should be obvious for anyone, Repub or Dem.

So this vote isn’t really about her. It will tell us everything we need to know about the people supposedly representing us.

It may be the nail in the coffin of the Republican Party.

I don’t think there is any other country in the world that believes that illegal aliens have the “right” to work in that country.

We are truly, “Uncle Sucker”.

How can a citizen of a foreign country be entitled to rights and privileges due the tax paying citizens of a sovereign nation?
Oh yea, the people who passed laws that EXEMPT themselves from the very laws of the nation say so.
We have lost the republic, and most are too stupid to even realize it.

I wonder if this ditzy broad could point out for us where this “right” is kept? I hope she doesn’t do drugs.

If an undocumented immigrant has a right to work in America, obviously he should be able to work as an undocumented Doctor or Lawyer or Judge?

No documents. No Problemo.

Yeah, but that guy actually went to school and passed the bar. If illegal undocumented people have a right to work in the US, then they should have a right to practice medicine, work as an attorney, teach schools without any documentation at all.

Maybe she is in the wrong country for being an AG, and ANY Senator that votes for her confirmation needs to voted out of office.

I think we have some better American Candidates....REJECT this one, she sounds like a foreigner, not an American.

No country can exist with porous borders, just ask France.
