Obama expands “hardship” waiver for illegal immigrants
The Washington Times ^ | Stephen Dinan

Posted on 01/07/2012 1:21:21 PM PST by Tigen

The Obama administration on Friday proposed new hardship rules that would make it easier for illegal immigrants to apply for legal status and stay in the country if they have a spouse or parent already living here legally.

Immigrant-rights groups called the move a “tremendous” victory while those who favor a crackdown on illegal immigration said it is another step in what they describe as administrative amnesty.

If it’s such a hardship, why don’t the spouse or parent go BACK to Mexico with the illegal until EVERYONE gets their immigration papers?

We need to fully support whoever runs against B. Obama.

This is disloyalty at all levels of cooperation, to the very IDEA of America.

Based on his actions and the DOJ, State department , DHS under his administration Obama identifies more with illegal aliens than US citizens.

They have basically passed amnesty without Congress.

Illegal alien rights. Future votes for the party. Sell your birthright, especially if you weren’t born here.

Obama is trying to put together the same type of coalition that Hugo Chavez used to seize control of Venezuela.

Get the Communist and Left Wing Elites, the ignorant underclass of welfare moochers, ambitious Military officers willing to sell out for power, the unionists, and as many illegal aliens as you can register to vote.

Now all he needs are his thug squads to intimidate the opposition with violence ( OWS is the start of this group) and for the Unionized Police to look the other way like they did in Wisconsin

Hugo won and has established a Cuba styled Communist Dictatorship in Venezuela. He has run the once prosperous country into the ground will probably die in office after 15 years of destroying his country.

If Obama gets re elected 2012 will be the last of the free and fair elections in America. We will instead see Third World style elections in the US and a steep and rapid decline like Venezuela

Obama writing his own laws again.

His oath he took at his inauguration was worthless.

This is the very definition of chain immigration. If you can get one pregnant illegal over the border, you have an anchor for the entire family. Believe me, there is no way to prove people are NOT related with the way we treat these “invaders with govt permission”.

No doubt. Why do we put up with this cult mentality? Aside from stupidity, of course.

“Obama is trying to put together the same type of coalition that Hugo Chavez used to seize control of Venezuela.” Post #12.

Your post is the best short and complete formula description of Chavez’s takeover that I’ve seen. By those standards Obama is dangerously close to repeating it here in the US as you describe. Good post!

Citizenship is a joke and this proves it. What’s the point anymore? None of our leaders will do a damn thing about the borders and illegal immigration.
