Democrats To Expand Healthcare Coverage To DREAM Act Recipients
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | December 4, 2012 | AWR Hawkins

A group of Reps. led by Barbara Lee (D-CA) is asking Obama to extend healthcare coverage to the children of illegal immigrants for whom he waived deportation months before the election.

These "DREAMers" -- so-called because they are recipients of a de facto DREAM Act -- are "not eligible for Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program, or federal subsidies provided under [Obamacare]."

The waiver of deportation was known as the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), and Democrats are now saying it simply does not go far enough.

According to Reps. Lee, Judy Chu (D-CA), Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), Lucille Roybal-Allard (D-CA), and others, "There is no principled reason to treat differently young people who received deferred action through DACA...

This is what O meant when he said no O-care for illegals, didnt the MSM and Dems go into a tizzy when Wilson yelled “That’s a lie’ ??

He never said no O-care for Dreamers

Too bad the ‘fine’ is so small,

“Sorry, but this camel is coming in backwards, winking the whole fricking time.”

You got that right! As Terry Anderson tried so valiantly to warn us about this subject....”Stupid people of America!!!!”

These kids can do as they have always done. Load up our emergency rooms and never pay.

Free insurance.

The camel’s head and neck are now under the tent.

Dude... the camel got spooked and went running off the cliff about a year ago.

BWA HAHAHAHAHA! This is really great news, guys. Let them do this. Tack on as much pork and people as possible. Overwhelm the system, folks. Completely overwhelm it. I want dials popping off, screws and rivets ricocheting off of walls, steam pouring out from pipes. When the whole damn thing collapses into a steaming pile, those well-armed among us will be in a unique position to take over and restore our Constitutional Republic.

Not that I'm well-armed. My whole arsenal went down with a Bayliner that sunk a few years ago in deep waters of the Gulf.

Where is the GOP running the House? Why isn't this illegal selective "Non enforcement" of the nation's laws DEFUNDED? Why hasn't OBAMCARE been DEFUNDED by the House?

REPLACE THE WEEPER OF THE HOUSE NOW.

Which means there'll soon be blanket amnesty and everyone will get ObamaCare.

It is time for all of us to start loudly and aggressively demanding that everyone (including congress and all entities which have received ObamaCare waivers) be required to participate in the program, or that it be abolished.

Sorry RATS, and I don't know the laws in CA but in AZ being part of the "deferred action" amnesty group does NOT give you legal status in the USA. AND you are still denied all state funded benefits in accordance with AZ State law. NO DRIVERS LICENSES, NO IN-STATE TUITION, ETC.

Bring it on. Give them everything they want. Let people see what happens with a runaway welfare state in a country with a large, dependent, fatherless underclass.

Liberals CUT medical benefits to these people:

So they can give FREE medical care to these people:

And I am a Neocon racist for objecting. How truly Orwellian. The people of this country fully deserve what is coming.

RE :”Oh, baby, you ain’t seen NOTHIN’ yet!!!!”

Of course I cant imagine that anyone at FR (members) didnt fully expect this when O announced his Dream policy. So no one should have been shocked.

But Republicans are so afraid of Hispanics (electorally) that after Romney got the nomination to the general election against O neither he nor his campaign or probably any other nominee was going to point this out to use against O.

Why not extend Obamacare to all of South America? Anything less would be racist.

The INS is obsolete, so close the government org down and save us billions each year. Just let any friggin body who wants to come destroy the (no longer) United States of America come on in. After all, we true citizens appear to be obsolete to our govt officials...since they listen to the Latinos (by this I mean those who speak out in favor of getting amnesty and freebies for illegals) more than us.
