Occupy America--Obama immigration policy erodes U.S. national identity
The Washington Times ^ | November 7, 2011 | Editorial

This isn’t your father’s America. As promised, President Obama is “fundamentally transforming” the nation with a plan to flood the United States with individuals whose hearts belong to other lands. The message to illegal immigrants is if you can get in and keep out of further trouble, you’re welcome to stay. The Land of the Free has become the land of the home-free.

On Oct. 31, the Justice Department sued South Carolina in federal court to block the state’s strict new immigration law, set to take effect Jan. 1. The move mirrors earlier Justice actions to halt toughened rules in Arizona and Alabama. In all three jurisdictions, legislators were attempting to deploy state statutes to enforce federal immigration law that U.S. Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. has refused to uphold. In this manner, the Obama administration is placing greater importance on protecting the rights of illegals than those of American citizens wishing to maintain an orderly immigration process.

The new South Carolina statute would require that law enforcers alert federal immigration officials when a detainee is suspected of being in the country illegally. It would also mandate that businesses use the federal government’s E-Verify computer system to confirm legal status of new hires. The Justice Department argues such measures are unconstitutional and would divert resources from more critical security needs. As if it weren’t already clear where its sympathies lie, the department set up a hotline in Alabama for illegals to report instances of purported discrimination resulting from the state’s new law.

Exactly. B. Obama is doing everything possibly to flood this country with not just immigrants, but highly undesirable ones whose value differ from ours and who milk the welfare system.

And unlike a lot of the destruction he's done or got planned, this is, as a practical matter, going to be largely irreversible.

He wants this country as we've known it, dead.
