Top Official Says Feds May Not Process Illegals Referred From Arizona
Fox News ^ | May 21, 2010 | Fox News

A top Department of Homeland Security official reportedly said his agency will not necessarily process illegal immigrants referred to them by Arizona authorities.

John Morton, assistant secretary of homeland security for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, made the comment during a meeting on Wednesday with the editorial board of the Chicago Tribune, the newspaper reports. "I don't think the Arizona law, or laws like it, are the solution," Morton told the newspaper. The best way to reduce illegal immigration is through a comprehensive federal approach, he said, and not a patchwork of state laws. The law, which criminalizes being in the state illegally and requires authorities to check suspects for immigration status, is not "good government," Morton said.

are these people that stupid, well yes they are.

AZ did the bill because the Feds were not helping in upholding the law and now the feds say this

This is coming from the top i.e. obama.

The man is infatuated to get those millions of illegals voting for him in 2012 without him he will not finish his far left socialist agenda and change the demographics of this country

And if borders are meaningless there should be no issue with outsourcing to foreign countries.

And you see what happened when Admiral Blair tried to do his job which he was NEVER allowed to do. Gonzo! And they BLAMED him for THEIR malfeasance.
They have literally destroyed this country from the top down and bottom up every day for over a year and NO ONE can stop them.

he’s paid to enforce the law, he is not paid to ignore the law and decide which law he likes

The GOP had better go after him Holder and the other idiot woman and get them to step down as they are ruining this country and treating themselves like dictators

I'm ready to start a company to deal with those folks. It can be based in the desert where the land is need of enrichment. I'll be happy to contract with Arizona.

John Morton is just another $cum&ag lawyer MISrunning a enforcement or intelligence agency.

Just like lawyers Napolitan, Bersin (Border & Custom Patrol), Panetta (CIA), Michael Leiter (Director of National Counterterroism Center)...

As long as lawyers like Obama & Biden head the regime, actual laws are meaningless.

I went through the immigration process and saw a ICE guy.

I told him that I knew of several pubs and restaurants hiring illegals in Boston as I had to work up there sadly.

To my amazement he told me that they do not go after people lie that only the ones who break the law .
I told him that they are breaking the law as an immigrant I know that full well

He then said before he walked away, “ well it’s people like drug smugglers we go after and big times criminals

I stood there with my wife and said why the hell did I just pay over two grand, go back to my country of birth a couple of times to do paper work and do these interviews etc.

what a complete sham all of this is and why the hell are people like me following he law when others get rewarded fro breaking it

you know what I worked to become America and I ma proud of both,
Maybe if they worked for it they might value being here more so
