Then again, I guess I should be glad that anybody even cares that the drug lords are a threat. This country has gone insane.

Our federal government makes no sense to me. They should be put behind bars for falling to “uphold the law”.

Except this R called McCain - adopted this position ever since he began his current primary and general election run for the Senate seat in Arizona!

— Absolutely on the money. Both the Ds and the Rs like illegals!

Meanwhile, the federal government has a lot of gall to be saying that Arizona is upsetting the delicate balance of immigration law non-enforcement, as though there is any method to this madness other than paving the way for cheap labor all these years. But now that the numbers of illegals are this high, and the public is supposed to be so brainwashed, now it is also starting to be about getting the illegals voting, in order to get more Dem votes.

I’m sorry, but that is really the only reason that the Republican Party is starting to have a problem. The non-enforcement and cheap labor was fine with them since the Reagan years - until it began threatening their elections. So now, they suddenly act upset.

But it’s all a play-act. Everything they suggest is really just a stall tactic. The idea (and the Dems are doing this too) is to keep things essentially as they are, providing cheap illegal slave labor for their buddies in business. The only thing the Republicans might try to do is make voting a little harder for illegals, and try to hijack the Tea Party movement, of course.

On Friday, a letter written by Prince William County Police Chief Charlie Deane to Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security John Morton, was released to the public. Chief Deane asked the DHS to stop issuing employment authorization cards to illegal aliens who have deportation proceedings pending against them.

In the letter, Chief Deane detailed a recent DUI crash in his county which killed Benedictine nun Sister Denise Mosier. The fatal accident was caused by Carlos Martinelly Montano, 23, an illegal alien from Bolivia who was handed over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement after a previous arrest, but was freed while awaiting a deportation hearing.

Montano received a U.S. Employment Authorization Card on January 14, 2009, after his second DUI arrest, which he then used to obtain a Virginia driver’s license. He was granted the card though he was slated for deportation.

Deane wrote: “I have been in contact with Virginia authorities regarding the concern that Virginia DMV documents issued based on EACs under these circumstances is very misleading. This can result in criminal aliens being inappropriately released when being processed by law enforcement authorities.”

Deane continued: “I ask that this glaring gap in DHS policy be ended.”

DHS has yet to respond to the request.

The wreck that took Sister Mosier’s life was actually Montano’s third DUI arrest in Prince William County over the last five years.

Montano is currently being held without bond at the Prince William-Manassas regional jail.

A list of a of few Montano’s offenses follows:

- April 2009…he was arrested for driving without a license and convicted in June.

-October 2008…he was stopped for driving 55 in a 35 mph zone, and was found to have a .17 blood alcohol level. Montano was sentenced to three years probation and his driver’s license was suspended.

-December 2007…he was arrested for being drunk in public.
-July 2007…he was charged with DUI and convicted later that same year.

Not only has the federal government abandoned their responsibility to defend our borders, but they are issuing legal documents to criminal aliens which enable them to stay here and cause even more mayhem.

I have my own message to Assistant Secretary Morton…How many Americans have to die before you decide to enforce our laws?…Either do your job or resign!

I am surprised that the mother and her two toddlers were not arrested. Once the right influential “protect the illegals at all costs” rotten, scum, supporters are informed of this miscarriage of American Justice, am sure that this irresponsible mother and her two toddlers will be charged with some crime and an apology issued along with an appropriate financial settlement - to the scum illegal.

That comment sure is a lot like what moonhowler just said on the open thread in her blog. Nice to know she pops in here for a visit once in awhile to spew her anti-Republican rantings.

For all the countless times Obama and crew have utilized and continue to invoke the “blame Bush” meme … pointing to the mess that was inherited from Bush years that will require years of cleanup and billions of spending by Obama and Co…. pretending that Obama has any intention of handling the immigration fiasco any differently is incredibly disingenuous. If there is any difference, any “change”, it is that Obama seems intent on outdoing his predecessor in the realm of dereliction of duty :

The price of allowing lowlifes who do not belong in this country to live here anyway just went up once again:

A young mother and her two toddlers remained hospitalized on Wednesday, one day after a tow truck driver struck them as they were crossing an Oxnard [California] street, dragging the children about one-quarter mile before stopping, police said. …
The driver, Mehran Khamseh, 45, of Santa Barbara, was later arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs, police said.
Khamseh was being held without bail in Ventura County Jail on Wednesday on suspicion of felony DUI causing injury, misdemeanor being under the influence of a controlled substance, a parole hold and an immigration hold, jail records show.
The immigration hold means that yet another maniac driver has destroyed American lives while in the country illegally.

Khamseh was convicted in 2008 of felony charges for making terrorist threats and petty theft. Yet he remained in the USA, like countless others like him.

But at least our rulers are keeping children safe from swing sets and Chuck E. Cheese.

“convicted in 2008 of making terrorist threats and petty theft with a prior conviction, both felonies.”

“My understanding was that there was a deportation hearing where a judge allowed him (at one point) to stay in the country. We are still looking into that. We don’t know the details,” Temple said.

“According to Ventura County court records, he was convicted by a jury in 2008 of terrorist threats and having a prior petty theft conviction. He also had a couple of prior traffic violations.”

An Iranian national, residing and working in the U.S. illegally, with multiple felony charges and prior traffic violations, gets a drivers licence and is hired to drive a tow truck..another catch and release, eternally “pending” immigration case where a foreign national is free to roam inside our nation….

While I don’t necessarily agree with the way this case was handled and am appalled at the tragic result, how about sharing with your readers what has specifically changed under the Obama administration as compared to Bush that lead directly to this tragedy. Let’s face it: for folks as up in arms about this issue, Bush was a joke. Laying this at Obama’s feet is incredibly disingenuous.

What are the chances he filled out the voter registration form when he got his license? Does anyone know how VA DMV is notified when one of the states registered drivers is deported?

Employment Authorization cards are issued by USCIS. ICE would be in charge of the monitoring or in this case likely monitoring the monitors, i.e. contractor

“In July 2009, DHS/ICE’s office of Detention and Removal Operations (DRO) awarded a $372 million, 5-year contract to BI Incorporated, a Boulder Colorado-based company, to provide support services for its Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP) 11, as the federal government previously called its electronic monitoring program.
”
I haven’t read all the news coverage of this story since I’ve been on the road, does anyone know or remember any news about the failure of the monitoring company?
Thanks.

Would you also ignore the federal laws associated with bank robberies?
