Homeland Security Secretary: Illegals Have ‘Earned Right to be Citizens’

Gold Star For Doing NothingAnd to the obvious detriment of actual Americans?

Clearly the Demorats and a number of Republicans are nuts.

(CNSNews.com) – Speaking at the United States Conference of Mayors on Friday, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said the approximately 11 million people who are in the country illegally have “earned the right to be citizens.”

“An earned path to citizenship for those currently present in this country is a matter of, in my view, homeland security to encourage people to come out from the shadows,” said Johnson, in what he remarked was one of his first public speeches since being confirmed as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) chief in December.

Really?

And just how have they earned that right?  By doing nothing in order to earn a gold star pasted to their foreheads?  By “showing up”?  Their mere presence is a reason for excellence?  Should we give T-ball holders to illegal Mexicans?  Should we create a program designed to enhance “esteem” in illegal Mexicans?

Should borders mean nothing?  Should law-breaking mean nothing?  Because, if so, I can’t wait.  I’d love to walk into a San Francisco Rolls-Royce dealer and take a new Phantom.  Not because I can pay for one, but because I simply want one and, after all, laws don’t mean anything and my wants and emotions trump logic and budget.  Don’t they?

Apparently so — to both Demorats and Old, Staid Country Club Republicans.

Here’s my challenge to DC and to Leftists and Progressives and Demorats and RINOs of the GOP:

Simply de-criminalize illegals of all shades and stripes.  Remove the word illegal and remove immigration laws from the books.  No more “detainees.”  Certainly, check vehicles and various modes of transportation for illegal contraband and goods, but allow the vertical bipeds to enter entirely unhindered.

You talk some smack.  Now walk the walk.  Put your vote where you ass-music is.

Remove the laws.  You don’t enforce them nor do you want to.  So remove them.

Let anyone and everyone into the country.

Ball’s in your court.

Go.
