Obama: Legalize illegals to get them health care
President Obama said this week that his health care plan won't cover illegal immigrants, but argued that's all the more reason to legalize them and ensure they eventually do get coverage.
"Even though I do not believe we can extend coverage to those who are here illegally, I also don't simply believe we can simply ignore the fact that our immigration system is broken," Mr. Obama said Wednesday evening in a speech to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute. "That's why I strongly support making sure folks who are here legally have access to affordable, quality health insurance under this plan, just like everybody else.
Mr. Obama added, "If anything, this debate underscores the necessity of passing comprehensive immigration reform and resolving the issue of 12 million undocumented people living and working in this country once and for all."
When making a national speach Obama says "no health care for illegals" but when speaking with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus institute he winks and says he'll just make them legal. He just assumes that most people aren't paying attention.
It's also worth noting that he seems to support giving the children of illegal aliens "affordable, quality health insurance."

Hey, it will be easier to bankrupt America if we have over forty million criminal aliens getting free health care and not paying taxes to support the program. That is Obama's plan. He wants to destroy this country. It is obvious that he hates America. Don't forget we need to let in tens of millions of their family members for free health care, free housing and jobs for them over Americans. Voting has consequences. Goodbye America, the world's only superpower, hello third world status.
I just saw on TV this morning, Obama will share our mexican flu vaccine with other needy countries. I wonder how many American babies will be sacrificed? He is making Neville Chamberlain look like Winston Churchill. Hating and killing American babies.
lol
That, I suppose, is what is referred to as a "Catch-22".
SNAFU.

Dave01, the 40 million number is an exaggeration that refers to the number of uninsured people in this country. Of these, half are illegal aliens. Of the remainder, an estimated 5 million actually do not have access to health insurance - others choose not to enroll, for various reasons.
It seems to me that we could address the roughly 5 million without blowing apart the health systems already in place in the USA. Of course, BO wants to ensure that illegals have insurance as well, and so Representative Joe Wilson was absolutely correct when he asserted "You lie!".
BO claims that we can add millions of people - at lower cost. Yet should the plans under consideration be adopted, 45% of US doctors have stated that they would consider dropping their practices or taking early retirement. If only half followed through, it would still amount to a reduction in force of approximately 360,000 health professionals.
And the USA is already adding patients at a rate that eclipses the numbers of doctors added. Do the math, and one thing becomes certain:
Government health care will involve heavy rationing. Despite the claims of BO and other Leftists, there is literally no other possible outcome.
Max, I'm referring to the 40 million criminal aliens here. I'm not talking about the people without health insurance. They always use a twelve to twenty million number. That estimate is several years old. I think a few more have snuck in since then. The house did a report called the Line In The Sand. In 2005, four to ten million came here illegally. If I remember correctly, only about twenty percent or so were caught. Thirty three million people visit legally every year and we still don't have a visa exit system. We are being run by the inmates of the nuthouse.
After being rewarded with amnesty, healthcare, jobs, and other social services, people will flock to our country. All the illegals here now will be able to import many relatives. They have children, siblings, nephews, nieces, cousins, parents, grandparents that will need to be here. Shit, we might get whole villages to come here.
The American experiment will be over and disappear like the Romans. They let in the barbarians and we are doing the exact same thing.
It's very simple.
The immigration system is not broken. Our government system is broken.
We don't need comprehensive immigration reform. We need comprehensive government reform.
We have the most corrupt vile group of "leaders" that I can ever remember.

40 million undocumented in the U.S.? Wow, now that is a number. All along we have heard from the racist hategroups that we only have 10-20 Million. They should hire you as their flunky...
Bobkatt, does your memory for some reason not include 2000-2008?
Fellow Libs, it's time to leave Miglavia. It seriously is. No one here will be persuaded or convinced of anything grounded in reason and sanity. By arguing with fools, we only become fools ourselves. Besides, I don't want to change or stop Miglavs from anything he does or says, because truly, he is the best thing liberals could ever hope for: He is his party's own worst enemy, a walking advertisement of stupidity, bigotry and political reaction. I wish he was a regular guest on Lars' radio show. Hell, I wish he had his own radio show, complete with giant billboards all over Oregon.
But most of all, it's time to stop feeding attention-starved Daniel Miglavs' ego. Here he is, in his own words, from many posts back:
I enjoy that so many of you hate me. I really do. The thought of hundreds of people waking up every morning to read what I write, scream epithets at their computer and then insult me brings a big smile to my face.
Keep that in mind: When you insult him, criticize him, call him names, etc. you're bringing "a big smile" to his face. So stop posting here. Wipe the smile off his face.
This is my last post, as an Anon, as anything. I'm outta here. Have fun, Miglavians.

Prove that number to be false. The 1986 amnesty was supposed to be for 1.1 to 1.3 million criminal aliens. The actual number ended up being about 3 million. If they are saying twenty million, you can bet it is a lot more. The pro amnesty people will lie to make amnesty more palatable for us. The government will just lie to us. They will amnesty the criminal aliens if they are able to. Then the US will end up as a third world hellhole. There will probably be large race riots. We have let all the barbarians into our country. I imagine the country will be split up into several chunks of land.
Why is it that mexicans cannot stay in their own country and try to help their people? Here's an idea, stay in YOUR country and work together to make it a better place. They must have love and loyalty to their country since they fly their flag and celebrate their holidays here at every chance they get. I myself could not imagine sneaking into a country where I am not welcome, mooching, commiting crimes and being deported several times. Why go to a place where you are not welcome nor wanted? A very intelligent group of people!!

What really burns me up is that mexico has the 11th largest gdp on the planet. They are a wealthy nation. The only problem is that the wealth is in the hands of a few. Mexicans must be very proud, they have a wealthy nation and over ten millions of their citizens are in the US getting jobs, free healthcare, free education and incarceration. What a role model for other nations.
So long, Anonymouse 607. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out. But be certain of one thing as you leave: You will not be missed.
