The White House provides summaries of four key principles that President Obama wants included in comprehensive immigration reform:

~~SNIP~~

• Streamlining Legal Immigration: Our immigration system should reward anyone who is willing to work hard and play by the rules. For the sake of our economy and our security, legal immigration should be simple and efficient. The President’s proposal attracts the best minds to America by providing visas to foreign entrepreneurs looking to start businesses here and helping the most promising foreign graduate students in science and math stay in this country after graduation, rather than take their skills to other countries. The President’s proposal will also reunify families in a timely and humane manner.

“reunify families in a timely and humane manner”

How about reunifying families where a parent(s) is in jail. Happens to citizens all the time. What about humane treatment for their children? /s

Foreigner: you are here illegally. Leave. If that splits your family then take them with you. We will be charitable and allow you to follow the existing “path to citizenship”. If you do not leave and enter legally, or do not leave at all, once you have an encounter with any LEO or government agency you will be imprisoned. Your home country will be billed for the expense. You will not receive in state tuition, you will not receive a driver license, you will not be allowed to open a bank account.

I see “Now is the time” has become the new catchphrase since Sandy Hook. He said it at least 6 times in the first 2 minutes of him blather today.

Obama’s immigration principles?

Let as many poor folks (future Democrat voters) from failed nations into the US illegally as possible and never deport them. Then make them citizens as fast as possible.

Only one Obama immigration principle.

Obama was in the Illinois Senate-—Did nothing

Obama was in the United States Senate——did nothing.

Now the a-hole is in the White House and HE wants to make the laws. If you want to make laws Richard Head, resign the presidency and run for the Senate.

Work hard and play by the rules. Ah there is the catch, illegals do not play by the rules. The rules include doing your paperwork, getting in line and waiting. We tooks lance’s rewards away, years latter, when we discovered he had not played by the rules, even if he did work hard. Why should we treat these people differently. Let illegal adults go home and wait 10 years before applying for legal entry. Let children who where brought here illegally go home and apply for legal entry with no 10 year penelty. For the kids that were born here, go with your parents till you are 18 then you can return if you want to. No welfare for 10 years, but you can get instate tuition but you can get in state tuition in the state in which you were born.
