MD DREAM Act Opponents Cry Foul Over Fed’s Latest Immigration Decision

"A federal decision that lets illegal immigrants without a criminal record... "

I'm sorry, but illegal means you have committed a crime and have a criminal record, so this deports all. Case closed.

I just don't get it. What am I missing here? The louder the citizens of this country speak up the more the government wants to shove illegals down our throats.I am tired of hitting 1 for English.I am tired of government programs throwing our cash at people that are breaking the law by being here.

What part of illegal does the government not understand according to the laws of our country? On the national news last night, they stated it takes $24,000 to deport an illegal alien. That does not even compare to the free food stamps, medical care, education, cell phone and every other program the government is throwing at these people.
