- SPITZER WAVES The Flag

SPITZER WAVES The Flag ! (Drudge Report)

FINALLY. He listens to the uproar and protests from the people of New York against such an idiotic idea as giving ILLEGAL (NOT undocumented) ALIENS a NY driver's license !!! What was he thinking anyway?

BUT... it sounds like the ONLY reason he dropped this pursuit was because it was causing him (and Hillary) too much grief in their own political popularity polls ! NOT because it was the wrong thing (let alone a stupid thing) to propose in the first place.

LEGAL documented immigration is great... BUT why GIVE people who snuck into the USA ILLEGALLY any more priveledges than they already have ?

What's next... should the Governor propose giving Bankrobbers (that's ILLEGAL too) a new, free checking account ? Or maybe give Car Thieves (that's ILLEGAL too) a free rental car for a week ? Or maybe give Muggers (that's ILLEGAL too) a free gold watch with every mugging?

Each of these (ILLEGAL) law-breakers would have to be registered to get their free gifts... then Governor Spitzer would definitely know where they live in his fair State of New York so he can better watch over and care for them.

The Governor worries that there are hundreds of thousands of ILLEGAL ALIENS driving in NY without a license or insurance. Instead of blaming Bush and crying to Washington for Federal help ($$$) to fix his ILLEGAL Aliens problem... MAYBE his own policing efforts should be more focused.

MAYBE he should strictly enforce the State's existing Illegal Immigrant Laws and the Unlicensed/Uninsured Motorists Laws, and...

MAYBE he should loosen the "Politically Correct" anti-Profiling restrictions now forced upon, and tying the hands of, his State and local police forces.

Why not do unscheduled, periodic roadside checks where licenses, insurance, and sobriety (and passports or green cards or visa documents) are checked ?

The old saying applies: If you aren't doing anything ILLEGAL... why would you complain about having these items looked at ?

And especially, once an ILLEGAL ALIEN is found driving illegally... DO THE RIGHT THING... SEND HIM (and his illegal family and illegal friends) BACK TO THEIR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN !

Just a one-way ticket out of the USA. Let them apply and come back LEGALLY next time.
