I don’t want to single out Mexicans here, but honestly folks, if I didn’t know any better, I’d swear I’m beginning to feel like I live in a Mexican border state. Everywhere I go anymore, everything is including Spanish translations and no, I don’t want to press 1 to continue in English!!!

Just this week, our enlightened new dummycrat governor, Elliot Spitzer decided that proof of US citizenship should no longer be required to obtain a New York State drivers license!!!

(CBS) NEW YORK They were celebrating outside the governor’s office Friday as Eliot Spitzer handed a landmark victory to a half-million illegal immigrants.

The state will no longer require proof of citizenship for driver’s licenses.

“We’re changing our policy with respect to getting more people out of shadows and into the system so people don’t hide they’re here,” Spitzer said.

He said the current restrictions on non-citizens have filled the roads with unlicensed drivers five times more likely to get into accidents.

But the also called it a matter of justice.

“As long as I’m governor we won’t pretend they don’t exist, cut them off from society,” Spitzer said.

A MATTER OF JUSTICE?!?! This coming from the man who was so determined to uphold the law when he served as NYS Attorney General and was literally on a crusade to prosecute criminals? Oh, I’m sorry, immigrants entering the United States and living in New York must have nothing to do with large corporations or individuals making huge profits. Ok, that ’splains it. By any chance, I wonder if his divine inspiration came from political intimidation by the same bunch of American hating libtards involved in this ridiculous lawsuit…

Lawsuit: ‘Operation Return to Sender’ Violates Constitutional Protections

NEW YORK (AP) – Immigration authorities violated Hispanic families’ civil rights by raiding their homes without court warrants, sometimes bursting in before dawn to look for people who didn’t live there, according to a federal lawsuit.

The suit was filed Thursday on behalf of 15 people—including seven U.S. citizens—who say their suburban homes were raided earlier this year.

Arguing that the raids violate constitutional protections against unreasonable searches, the suit seeks unspecified damages and a halt on the home raids until Immigration and Customs Enforcement develops legal guidelines for them.

Mark Thorn, an ICE spokesman, said the agency does not comment on pending lawsuits.

According to the lawsuit, a program dubbed Operation Return to Sender dispatched armed federal agents to homes in search of illegal immigrants thought to have lingered after being ordered to leave the country. But the people sought often weren’t there and couldn’t “reasonably” have been expected to be, the lawsuit said.

Given that, plus the absurd notion, as my hero Claire mentions over at SondraK’s website, that today’s Hitler of the Islamo-fascist movement is being allowed to set foot on NY soil – much less American soil – just begs me to ask somebody out there; WTF am I staying here for??? Someone… anyone??? Please tell me!!!
