Scarborough takes a stand against illegal immigration
Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBCs Scarborough Country, recently took a tough stand against illegal immigrants, saying that America must hire former must hire former New York City mayor Rudolph Giuliani to, among other things, halt the Mexican governments practice of passing out illegal I.D. cards. Click below to read Scarboroughs thoughts.
WERE BEING TOLD that Americans are helpless when it comes to the issue of illegal immigration. Thats garbage. I remember reading about how former New York Mayor John Lindsay said New York was an ungovernable city. The liberal Republican kept saying that so much that he actually started believing it. And sure enough, soon enough, the Big Apple began its historic decline, until a guy named Rudy Giuliani took it over and almost made the job look easy. Now we find ourselves in a position where our leaders on Capitol Hill and in think tanks across America are telling us theres nothing we can do to stop the tide of illegal immigration, so we might as well just let them into our country, break our laws, and then maybe we should grant them amnesty. You know what? That is a losers way of thinking, because, if we want to stop illegal immigration in America, we can do it. The question is whether we have the will to do it. Right now, I dont think we do. But theres a good way you can prove me wrong. First, stop letting Mexican government officials pass out illegal I.D. cards to illegal immigrants. And second, hire Rudy Giuliani. Hell fix the problem. It may take him a while, but Ill guarantee you one thing. He wont come back to the American people whining about how illegal immigration is a problem thats just too big to fix. He doesnt think that way, and neither have any other great American leaders in our history. Fix our border, fix the problem, and quit making excuses, Washington. Were sick and tired of it.

First, stop letting Mexican government officials pass out illegal I.D. cards to illegal immigrants. We can't stop what Mexican government officials do. But we can pass laws that forbid those cards from being accepted as legal ID, and to consider possession of such a card, in absense of other U.S. immigration paperwork to be probable cause that the holder is an illegal alien.

In a previous FR post, we discusses the AZ Supreme Court and Medicaid. The AZSC extended Medicaid coverage to all illegals regardless of the severity of care required. It used to cover, by law, only lifesaving measures in emergency rooms. It must now be provided for coverage of everything from hangnails to hangovers. It's time to hammer our state elected officials.

BTW I've never heard Joe use the word "foreigner" when referring to illegal immigration. Sounds like MSNBC's own characterization.
