Paterson Makes Last-Minute Deal With Feds On Illegal Immigrants
AM 810 WGY ^ | 12/31/2010 | Staff

Posted on 12/31/2010 6:48:12 AM PST by Shady

Governor Paterson has made one more major policy decision before he leaves office tonight. The Democrat is announcing a deal with the federal Immigrations and Customs Enforcement to take a hands-off approach to illegal aliens without serious criminal records. The agreement calls for ICE to move to deport illegal immigrants charged with felonies--instead of those whose only crime is illegally crossing the border.

So we basically have a sanctuary state. California and New York deserve all they bring on themselves. Unfortunately, the rest of us will end up paying for it.

His approach to this is very consistent with the primary motive of so many Democrats ~ they want plentiful and cheap lawnboys and bedwarmers.

Beyond that they have no interest in immigration and naturalization issues.

This is grounds for impeachment:

New York State Constitution

ARTICLE XIII Public Officers

1. [Oath of office; no other test for public office]

Section 1. Members of the legislature, and all officers, executive and judicial, except such inferior officers as shall be by law exempted, shall, before they enter on the duties of their respective offices, take and subscribe the following oath or affirmation:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the constitution of the United States, and the constitution of the State of New York, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of the office of ......, according to the best of my ability;"

and no other oath, declaration or test shall be required as a qualification for any office of public trust, except that any committee of a political party may, by rule, provide for equal representation of the sexes on any such committee, and a state convention of a political party, at which candidates for public office are nominated, may, by rule, provide for equal representation of the sexes on any committee of such party. (Amended by Constitutional Convention of 1938 and approved by vote of the people November 8, 1938.)

If Arizona can’t enforce their legally passed laws then the Governor of NY can’t make any declarations that have NOT passed a vote.

If DemoRATS in New York and California keep this sh!t up, they are going to make “fly over country” decide to uphold
the constitution in the good “old fashioned” way.

Better impeach him by midnight tonight.... Oops, sorry, by ten tonight...

NEW YORK (WCBS 880) – Gov.-Elect Andrew Cuomo is hitting the ground running as he prepares to start his new job on Jan. 1, 2011. He’s even getting an early start. Cuomo will take the oath of office two hours early at 10 p.m. on Friday. His early oath will allow his three daughters to watch.

Democrats know illegals vote for Democrats as they did in Nevada for Harry Reid, Boxer in California, Jerry Brown in California etc.

If we don’t deport illegals soon then the whole U.S. will be to the left of what California is now. This is the number one issue. Why don’t people see that?

Democrats sure do have a tendency to crap in their nest and walk away for someone else to clean it up.

People are too busy with going to the movies, football games, playing video games, and other forms of entertainment to have to worry about that silly stuff.

Actually, if they keep this up, we're going to require passports for them to enter the US. They won't be considered citizens and their drivers licenses won't be accepted as proof of legal residency.
