It is not official yet, but you can bet on this happening. Thomas Perez, the current Labor Secretary for the State of Maryland, and former board director for Casa de Maryland, one of the most influential immigrant advocacy organizations in the country, will take over (literally) as the Head of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). According to Wikipedia, CASA de Maryland is to Maryland politics what MoveOn.org is to national politics. CASA is affiliated with the National Council of La Raza, which is the largest Hispanic "civil rights and advocacy organization" in the United State. CASA has also received a two-year grant from George Soros's Open society Institute.
Thomas Perez played a key role in Obama's "transition," and is yet another Clinton retread, having served as a top official in the Justice Department for his administration.
In a related story that appeared in 24Ahead.com, in 2007, Perez "joined students in Annapolis to urge approval of a bill granting in-state tuition rates to undocumented immigrants."
And, in a story published last December by ALIPAC, CASA’s workers’ centers— are places where laborers, regardless of their immigration status, can come seeking jobs. CASA vigorously lobbied county officials against getting involved in immigration issues. CASA has also used the power of the American Civil Liberties Union to initiate civil rights lawsuits against police for "racial profiling."
Looks like Obama is getting ready to throw open the flood gates and put everyone South of the Border on a fast-track to citizenship.
Is anyone here surprised?

Our “poverty rate” is about to go through the roof!
He’ll report to Mohammed al-Mohammed, the new director of Homeland Security.
Black is white, up is down...
Always like this in Communist countries. Everything's inverted.
Is this the fox watching the henhouse?
Yes.
No need for Congress to pass amnesty legislation if this guy is in charge of CIS.
Amazing, just when I think things cannot possibly get worse.....
It’s frightening to realize how much damage one person can do
This Presidency will cause damage to our beloved country like no other before or long after. Look at the damage the O has done in just one month. God forbid he’s turns out to be a 2-termed Presidency... the country might not survive it.
We’re going to see some very bad and ugly things before the end of this year.
More like Winnie the Pooh in a honey factory.
My country tis of thee
Used to of liberty
Be known worldwide
Now it’s just all messed up
Thrown from the turnip truck
Only with massively good luck
Will freedom reign...
Just a little ditty for you to enjoy...
The hits just keep on coming.
We’re not going to last a year.
True, but Mohammed al-Mohammed reports to Barack Hussein Obama.
Border? What border?
That is, if we still have a Republic by then.
The United States will henceforth be known as Northern Mexico.
Thanks, LucyT.
A “Latino Advocate” and Janet Napolitano in Homeland Security=disaster for the country. There’s got to be a stronger term for open borders.
Wonder if we’ll ever see an advocate for people like me....
FYI:
Democracy = two wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
Liberty = a well armed sheep contending the outcome of that vote.
