RICK SCOTT VETOES BILL TO GIVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS DRIVER'S LICENSES

Gov. Rick Scott (R-FL) on Tuesday vetoed a bill that would have required Florida hand out driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, a sign he is taking a stand against the left in favor of conservatism.

“Florida is home to immigrants of many nationalities, who add to the cultural fabric of our great state, and whose productivity and hard work have contributed to our economic turnaround,” Scott said in his official letter to Florida Secretary of State Kenneth Detzner announcing the veto. “Still, our nation struggles with immigration issues every day, as Americans seek to reconcile the fact that at one point our families were immigrants who came, as many do today, to work and live the American dream with the fact that the federal government has failed at enforcing the nation’s laws on this topic.”

Scott went on to detail the inconsistencies of immigration policy coming out of Janet Napolitano’s Department of Homeland Security and President Barack Obama’s administration at large.

He is smart. Now they will all come to Maryland and get a license and he will be rid of them. O'Malley will give them hugs and kisses, a license, in state tuition, housing, free health care, and then send them to Salisbury for a free education. And the ones that are not sure what sex they want to be will probably get a job working for the city.

Without trying to sound racist,their dui rate is unreal,and completely disproportionate to US citizens.That alone is reason for denial in my opinion.

The irony of a tragic accident today in Lincoln Delaware. Six of the seven involved were all hispanic, the seventh a white caucasian politician. Our roads are over run with illegals, causing accidents. Remember last week when two drunk illegals made a u-turn at night (in Maryland?), didn't see a motorcycle coming with it's headlight on and pulled in front of the white caucasian driver. He was killed, they took off on foot, but were later caught by police. We have Democrats to thank for our rat infestation, republicans would deport them.

Why would they even give illegal immigrants drivers licenses. First they don't have cars commonly, second they steal jobs that they shouldn't even have, third they act like this is there country, and finally fourth I am sure everybody knows where the money to pay for the cars for the illegals are going to come from. It has to come from our taxpayer's money and while they don't pay taxes for mostly everything.
