ILLEGALS: On Obama's watch

Hispanic lobbies have announced they are going to hold back support and votes if Obama doesn't put a stop to all deportations. With all his administration has done for them, It's really unfair. He has sued the states that want to enforce immigration laws and used policy changes to halt enforcement. Other policy changes have put millions of illegals on Social Security, even though they never paid in. The families of "anchor babies" receive enough welfare to preclude them from working. The CBO put the figure at $860B being paid each year for illegals in benefits and support. They even sent several thousand guns to keep the DEA and the border patrol off their backs.

Obama has managed to keep his programs safe from any budget cuts or reform. Although he proposed modest tax increases and to nail the Fat Cats, he hasn't really gone after the Fat Cats yet, as he has been getting big campaign contributions from them to meet his goal of a billion dollars. Hey amigos, he really is your buddy, and he can keep bringing the taxpayer pork your way.
