Obama Orders Dance Classes, Movie Nights, and Bingo for Illegal Detainees
american thinker ^ | 6/11/10 | Chris Banescu

The Houston Chronicle reports that the Obama administration has ordered the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) department to implement multiple modifications to their facilities to make life easier, more comfortable, and pleasant for the hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants (approximately 400,000) it detains annually. An internal ICE email highlights 28 different changes the organization will have to make to soften the look of its facilities, present a friendlier environment, offer better entertainment, organize fun activities, and provide illegal immigrant detainees with free access to email and phone services, as well as better dining and training classes.

I think he’s trying to start a violent revolt so he can use the heavy hand of the government to silence all opposition.

He’s going to keep poking until someone throws the first punch.

You check it once, you check it twice, and still your brain is saying, ‘This has to be a hoax; no way can even Obama be this insane.’

On the bright side, it really can’t get much crazier without running off the rails sooner or later. I’m better sooner.

WOW. This is so incredibly ridiculous, I don’t even know where to start. I just wish I knew of a country that I could sneak into, break some laws, and then get rewarded with all these perks. Unfortunately for me I was born here and have to work my butt off to earn similar frivolous activities for myself. Why would we want a softer image for where we hold illegal immigrants, anyways? These things sound like pluses for a resort vacation destination. Illegals shouldn’t even be there long enough to worry about a variety of food options before they get deported.

It’s no joke. Meanwhile, during Capitol Hill testimony yesterday on the oil spill, it was revealed that the Coast Guard is having to ration the oil spill response teams and equipment because of budget concerns.

What in the hell is going on in this country? It is time to start calling for Obama’s resignation or impeachment. This is not mere incompetence...it is a wilful dereliction of duty.

(ICE to make detention centers more humane)

"But the plans are prompting protests by ICE's union leaders, who say they will jeopardize the safety of agents, guards and detainees and increase the bottom line for taxpayers. Tre Rebstock, president for Local 3332, the ICE union in Houston, likened the changes to creating “an all-inclusive resort” for immigration detainees.

“Our biggest concern is that someone is going to get hurt,” he said, taking particular issue with plans to relax restrictions on the movement of low-risk detainees and efforts to reduce and eliminate pat-down searches.

The changes outlined in the ICE e-mail are planned for nine detention centers owned and operated by Corrections Corporation of America, including the 900-bed Houston Contract Detention Facility on the city's north side.

Some of the changes will be implemented within 30 days; others may take up to six months, said Beth Gibson, ICE's senior counselor to Assistant Secretary John Morton and a leader of the detention reform effort."

More Unions?....a Progressive Cancer that removes freedom....Obama is not just smoking cigarettes....cocaine?

"...Why not just remove American taxpayers from their homes and place them all in the ICE detention centers, and then insert the illegals in the vacated homes. That way, they’ll have all the comforts of nice bedrooms, TVs, dishwasher and laundry facilities..."

That's Phase II, scheduled for after he finishes subverting the authority of Congress, packing the Supreme Court, and fully consolidates power in the Executive Branch - somewhere around mid-October. Right after he finishes landing the multi-national Greater American Freedom Force all over the Gulf Coast under the cover of "fighting the disastrous Bush/BP corporate greed-induced oil spill"...

... hanging plants...

Say again...

Yep... every time you thought you've heard everything, this asshole does you one better. He doesn't have a "line."

At this point, I'm beginning to wonder if what some here are purporting is actually true - that Maobama is just trying to push buttons. He can't be this much of a delusional, incompetent leftsist. Nobody can be this screwed up.

Well yeah, except you don't get many of these perks on a cruise ship.

Also, I remember had to PAY for my internet and phone calls when I was on the FR cruise.

self-serve beverage stations

Self serve? Oh my Lord, they have to WORK to get their own drinks?

No taxpaying slaves to serve them?

Next thing you know he'll require we pay them minimum wage.

And the Pizza Hut and the Subway. Now, instead of Subway after talking to my wife on the AT&T phones, I buy some junk food from the PX. Surely this is better for us all! lol...
