Cedillo claimed that the motive behind his measure was to "restore highway safety." Methinks if that were his true goal, Cedillo would have increased penalties for those who drive without a license or without insurance. Instead, he is poised to wink at the practice.

I only wish this rebuttal would be made more often in the press, rather than just repeating Cedillo's talking points.

One idea I heard that had been floated was to have tax payers pay for illegal immigrant insurance, yet if we just eliminated the middle man, the government, we already are paying for their insurance, it's called uninsured motorists!

For sure the cost of the uninsured would increase 10 fold if more people who refused to obey the laws , e.g. immigration laws, are invited here to drive and have legal status, since they broke the law to come here to begin with, why would anybody believe they would all of sudden start obeying the law and buy insurance !

"When Team Arnold floated the idea of marking illegal immigrants' driver's licenses to show they are not legal residents, Cedillo complained to reporters that the very notion "invites discrimination." Actually, immigration law demands discrimination as it prohibits employers from hiring illegal immigrants. "

Arnold is making a requirement, that the Dems will never go for, and Arnold will never go for the Dem version.

The Dems real objective is to erase the difference between legal and illegal immigrants, Arnold, wants to make sure this will not happen.
