What is Obama thinking?

Letting Illegals stay in the US if they are not criminals. The fact is they broke the law coming here illegally in the first place. AND how are they able to work or go to school if the are not citizens of the US? AND seeing that unemployment is so bad like we have enough jobs for these illegals anyway.

    I think he's thinking that they've been here a long, long time. So why does he have to be the one to deport them all?

    Kudos, President Obama.

    He's probably not republican enough to live in Dream land, and realizes what a contribution these illegals make in the argricultural industy, to say nothing of the food service, hotel. and other industries. He realizes that they provide a service most Americans turn their nose up at, as too hard a job or too menial, or too back breaking.

    Yeah, some jobs just ARE back breaking, and there really isn't a way around that.

    You been in a fast food place lately? I wouldn't hire these kids on a bet. Spoiled, lazy, sneaking off to tweet every 5 seconds, can't break a 10 without making a mistake........and ask them to do something,,..........like mop a floor........you're more likely to get told to eff off and do it yourself.

    Then they ask for a raise. No my friend.......wake up and smell the current generation of computer addicted youth. They wouldn't do these tough jobs if their life depended on it, so why not allow some poor immigrants, seeking that American Dream of a better life, to have a go at it..........just like your Grandparents and Great Grand parents did.....(unless you are Native Indian)

    Hating on Illegals, doesn't fix anything. They're here....and we need them, in more ways than one.

    Sure , we can always do better on border control, and enforcing the laws already ON the books........but we can ALSO help and lend a hand to the ones already here, and working here anyway.

    Businesses can't have it both ways, and don't sit there and tell me, that businesses don't hire these people because they are cheap and off the books, and therefore avoid paying TAXES and Benefits.

    Fix the problem.........by fixing the first 3 problems on the list..........not by scratching off the ones trying to help.

    I'm fairly certain he doesn't just invite illegals and let them stay. I think if an illegal is arrested or pulled over, then they'll be deported or something.

    Clearly he wants illegals to stay and vote for him in 2012. Geez, Obama is really desperate. Shameless anyway.
