Dem governor cracks down on illegal children (Richardson)

As everyone knows the only people in America who are so heartless as to report illegal immigrants to the immigration cops are evil conservative Republicans like those profiling fascists in Arizona, right?

Right?

Well not so fast there, Bubba.

Left wing wunderkind, Bill Richardson, Democrat and waiting-for-indictment corruptocrat, lame-duck governor of New Mexico, has ordered the state department of children's and family services to begin reporting illegal immigrant children to ICS.

Oh the horror of it all! Reported by the NY Times, right? Well, no. Reported by the Washington Post and the LA Times, right? Well, er, ah, no. But the Associated press picked it up and broadcast it to the world, right? Uh, well, no. Sissy Chrissie Matthews is feeling a vibration all the way up to his prostate gland, right? Well, not so's you'd notice, but then with that guy...

Don't bother Googling for it because it's not there, but it was at the top of the front page of the Albuquerque Journal yesterday (subscription only - free story here courtesy of the Las Cruces Sun-News). Does this thundering national media silence tell you anything about who controls the flow of information in this world?

That's right folks, it's going unreported because the edict came from one of the lapdog media's favorite also-rans, Big Bill Richardson, failed governor, failed commerce secretary and failed human being. Had a Republican governor done this there would be howling calls for boycotting New Mexico, which, when you think about it being next door to Arizona, would give outraged liberals an easy two-fer.

We all know there's no hypocrisy in liberalism, right?

[Logical me]

What? Really? New Mexico? I’m holding my breath.

[Red Badger]

...and a Hispanic................

[Fawn]

Good find!

[Bullish]

We all know that hypocrisy is synonymous to liberalism.

[PhilDragoo]

Gee, if we'd known he was going to do this, we might not have left North Mexico.

He is infamous for boldly declaring no fence would stop history.

Tony Rezko, Ron Blagojevic, and now Bill Richardson--not the Tony, Ron and Bill the Narcissist in Chief knew.

O pobrecitos; que lastima. Richardson es cabron.

[Kartographer]

Billy, Billy, Billy what are you up to? There has to be something in this for him. Bill has an ego that drawfs even Zero’s.

[AuntB]

Wow.

[potlatch]

Very interesting!

Why is everyone surprised? New Mexico has to do something or they will be over-run with illegals.

And it was a Democrat administration which set the precedence for keeping families together when sending them back to a dictatorship, even if a child was a U.S. citizen.

Remember Elian Gonzales? When he set foot on a Florida beach, automatically he became a U.S. citizen (by legal statute). That didn’t stop the Clinton administration from sending him back to Cuba based solely on keeping ‘family’ together. So, a precedent has been set and it is a big one by Democrats. The child, when reaching majority, can petition the U.S. government for citizenship recognition.

Well, more power to New Mexico if they do send families of illegal aliens back to their nations of origin. It is disappointing that this is being attempted under the radar of the national media.

This is completely false. He did not become a US citizen by stepping foot on US soil. They only get the right to stay.

Prove I’m wrong. Cite a reference and provide a link.

[HiJinx]

Ping!

Is Richardson up for re-election?

You’re the one who made the claim, you provide a link. You don’t have to prove a negative. I work with Cubans and they cam here on boats and rafts and none of them were citizens till they went through naturalization, including ones who came as children.

When he ranted against the new law in AZ it made the MSM for two days. Of course our media is badly biased, even my eight year old grandson knows that.

Wet-Foot Dry-Foot Policy

Others take the shorter, more direct route from Cuba to the United States--often reaching shore in the South Florida area. They have risked their lives on boats of different sizes or homemade vessels that are not always sea-worthy. Cubans are motivated by the “wet-foot, dry foot” policy that allows those who reach dry land in the U.S. to remain in the country. If they are intercepted at sea, the Cubans get deported. However, if they manage to reach American soil they are allowed to stay in the U.S. and are granted Green Cards. The waters of Florida are constantly patrolled by the Border Patrol and by the U.S. Coast Guard, yet it is estimated that more than 16,000 Cubans make it to the U.S. successfully every year.

I believe the original rationalization was to provide sanctuary for fugitives from a repressive dictatorship.

Carter, Clinton, Obama would question the sanity of anyone fleeing such a socialist paradise.

When it is time to flee Obamismo where shall we go?

Thank you for your information, graciously given. I admit I was wrong but I suspect everyone understood my message.
