Reducing immigration in the USA

Rather than take control of illegal immigration in the USA, Barack Obama seems to have decided on an easier route. California Political News reports that:

'The Obama administration has effectively declared open borders to millions of would-be illegal immigrants not through legislation, but with a sneaky policy move.

On Aug. 20, its man at ICE, John Morton, wrote a memo stating that being in the U.S. illegally is no longer sufficient reason to send someone home. An illegal immigrant now has to be a security threat or else commit a crime and a violent one at that. To everyone else, ICE turns the blind eye.

Director Morton says it's a matter of priorities. But make no mistake: This is amnesty by another name.

Adding insult to injury, ICE will empty its costly, just-built detention centers of 17,000 existing deportation cases as long as an illegal can show that he or she has applied to become legal.

This, says the New York Times, will "pare huge case backlogs." And to ICE bureaucrats, it's proof they're doing their jobs.'

Barack Obama's Democrats are just trying to build a client state in the USA that will always vote for them, just as Tony Blair's Labour party did in the UK.
