The policy was ridiculous....scrapping it was a good thing...
Which shows that like a broken clock, even Obama can be right once in a while...

No they are not

there is no such thing as dual citizenship in the United States...

we are not subject to the laws of other countries...

only the laws of America count...

to become an American citizen you have to give up your allegiance to Australia or ant other country...

I know ...I had to publically cut all ties to New Zealand a month BEFORE I was naturalized an American citizen...I had to raise my had and swear so...and sign a document...

I could not become an American citizen and retain citizenship in another country...

Its an American immigration law...

BTW the World Court part of the UN would just love to be over to override our American laws and our Constitution...they’ve been trying to for years...

Meanwhile there is no dual citizenship...

There is no such legal status in America...

What a legacy, for the first time ever, America would return refugees to tyranny. How disgusting. Good thing the Jews of WW 2 were not depending on Obama.

Why would you want to treat one group of people differently from another?

So if us hating Mexicans swimming the Rio Grande makes us bigots, does this mean Obama is a Cuban hating bigot?

Cubans, wrong hispanics. They vote Republican. Best way to enter the US from Cuba is to put on a sombrero and enter through Mexico as a potential democrat vote.

Castro’s stooge is still sucking up to the Communist State.

Why do those fleeing narcoterrorists or “AIDS prejudice” get priority over those fleeing Communists or anti-Christian religious genocide?

Wait. I really believe he will do something against Christians, too. This petty narcissist is trying to harm all of his enemies before he leaves.

The coward waited until the DemoCraps lost to make ALL of these policies. And when he pardon’s the faggot traitor (Bradley Manning) his true calling will be evident.

(Manning’s sexual proclivities are entirely fair game as it is his own cited reason for attacking the military).

I agree. I don’t care who they supposedly vote for. They don’t have the right to be here.
