Beer Monday: Illegal News Roundup

Happy Monday! The start of a new work week. Time to get busy, shift a few paradigms, pay attention to the coming Super Bowl. How ’bout a beer?

Sen. Barack Obama easily won the African American vote in South Carolina, but to woo California Latinos, where he is running 3-to-1 behind rival Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, he is taking a giant risk: spotlighting his support for the red-hot issue of granting driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.

It’s a huge issue for Latinos, who want them. It’s also a huge issue for the general electorate, which most vehemently does not. Obama’s stand could come back to haunt him not only in a general election, but with other voters in California, where driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants helped undo former Gov. Gray Davis.

Goody, let’s patronize people who cannot even legally vote, Mr. B. Hussein Obama.

Leaders of a Chicago church where an illegal immigrant from Mexico took sanctuary for a year before being deported say they plan to house another immigration activist who is set on defying a deportation order.

Flor Crisostomo, 28, an illegal immigrant who came to the U.S. in 2001, was slated to report to federal immigration officials on Monday, but the head of Adalberto United Methodist Church said she will seek refuge at the church in the same way as immigration activist Elvira Arellano, who was deported to Mexico last August.

Being a church does not give them the right to break the law.

Sen. John McCain now is embracing a version of the attrition strategy to fight illegal immigration, saying his version of a guest-worker plan would actually force many illegal aliens to leave the country over the next couple of years.

“I would propose, once the borders are secure and the borders stay government-certified, then I would have [a] tamper-proof biometric-document system so that the only people that can work are those who have that. And that would cause many more to leave this country,” Mr. McCain told “Al Punto,” Univision’s Sunday political talk-show program, in an interview broadcast yesterday.

The “Maverick” says he got the message about his disasterous amnesty bill. OK, fine, you do not want to call it amnesty. Let’s call it “giving people who broke our laws a chance to become legal with a simple fine” then. Quite frankly, if McCain wants people to believe he is anti-illegal aliens, he should go up to Capital Hill and submit legislation. Actions speak louder then words.
