White House responds to 'deport Justin Bieber' petition
Toronto Sun ^ | APRIL 19, 2014 | QMI Agency

"Sorry to disappoint, but we won’t be commenting on this one."

That's the short and sweet response from the White House to a petition to deport Justin Bieber.

Nearly 275,000 people have signed the Deport Justin Bieber And Revoke His Green Card campaign that kicked off in January.

The petition reads: "We the people of the United States feel that we are being wrongly represented in the world of pop culture. We would like to see the dangerous, reckless, destructive, and drug abusing, Justin Bieber deported and his green card revoked. He is not only threatening the safety of our people but he is also a terrible influence on our nations youth.

"We the people would like to remove Justin Bieber from our society."

The We the People platform on the White House website allows people to create and sign petitions that call for the federal government to take action on a range of issues.

In its response to the Bieber petition, the White House said, "The We the People terms of participation state that, 'to avoid the appearance of improper influence, the White House may decline to address certain procurement, law enforcement, adjudicatory, or similar matters properly within the jurisdiction of federal departments or agencies, federal courts, or state and local government in its response to a petition.'

"So we'll leave it to others to comment on Mr. Bieber’s case, but we’re glad you care about immigration issues. Because our current system is broken. Too many employers game the system by hiring undocumented workers, and 11 million people are living in the shadows."

They don’t comment on anything if it doesn’t criticize conservatives.

You got it right there. Only if it makes conservatives look bad and Obumbles look good by comparisson. They really should just remove that claim that supposedly obligates the White House to respond when a certain number of people e-sign the petition. Stop moving the goal posts on your new lies.

Rather than deport him, give him an ultimatum: If he can listen to his own music longer than 3 hours he can stay. If he can’t, buh-bye.

Leave Justine Bieber alone! She’s doing the best she can.

The saddest thing is the fact that Americans have actually begun to believe that online petitions are a legitimate means of redressing grievances.

Yep. That snot nosed kid is the king of the wiggers. That Kardashian clan ain’t far behind, if at all, from what is reported either.

I doubt that they will deport Justin Bieber, because both Harry Reid and Joe Biden are known to have “Bieber Fever”, which explains a lot of their behavior.
