Obama has announced today that he will be pushing forward the latest bill in an attempt to fix the ‘broken’ immigration laws we have standing now. But I have to ask, who is the system broken for? Is it the legally born citizens, the ones that came in legally in the past 20 years applied for and attained citizenship, or the ones trying to circumvent every law we have, sneaking in?
I would think this has less to do with immigration laws and more with wanting to push amnesty to all illegals currently in the states. After all, isn’t this a push for more votes, a push to get more people on the government payroll? I would suspect it is, and if history thus far with the Obama Administration has proved one thing, it’s that you have to make changes slowly at first, before shoving something down our throat.

According to Obama, the immigration laws are broken and “Everyone knows it.” Excuse me, that’s assuming an awful lot. Perhaps he should be speaking to the other side of the isle, he so vehemently suggested during his campaign. Or how about talking to a panel of immigrants that have gained citizenship legally and just how broken it really is.
