Tom Tancredo:

Tancredo called the decision by Obama a form of amnesty, and argued his move plays into the debate over immigration, not natural disaster.

“Americans are responding to the Haiti devastation as we always do, by millions of acts of individual charity and generosity,” Tancredo said in a statement from the conservative Rocky Mountain Foundation, of which he is chairman. “But Obama’s action in giving protected status to 200,000 illegal aliens already in the U.S. is a cynical exploitation of that horrific situation.”

The outspoken critic of immigration added that he is concerned that once the 18-month protected status period ends, Obama will extend the status “under the excuse that the country has not yet fully recovered from the natural disaster.”

Tancredo also warned against dangerous Haitian gang members entering the United States by claiming refugee status.

“It might help Haiti’s recovery to bring all of them to the U.S. as refugees, but I doubt the citizens of Florida or Texas or Illinois see that as a humanitarian duty,” he said.[snip]

“For Right Wingers like Tom Tancredo to suggest that we should ship tens of thousands of Haitians back into those hellish conditions is beyond inhumane,” Clark continued. “But that’s just the kind of hatefulness that seems to have taken hold of the far Right.” [snip]
