| New Czar - 'Advocate For Illegal Aliens' |
| 2012-02-09 |
| U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said the advocate will "serve as a point of contact for individuals, including those in immigration proceedings, NGOs and other community and advocacy groups, who have concerns, questions, recommendations or other issues they would like to raise." The agency — part of the Homeland Security Department — said Andrew Lorenzen-Strait will be the first advocate. But Rep. Lamar Smith, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, And in very deep trouble from his sponsorship of SOPA and PIPA. said that meant elevating the concerns of illegal immigrants. “It’s outrageous Outrageous, I say, outrageous!, said Captain Renault. that the Obama administration has appointed a taxpayer-funded activist for illegal and criminal immigrants who are detained or ordered deported. The administration all too often acts more like a lobbying firm for illegal immigrants than as an advocate for the American people,” Mr. Smith, A wholly owned subsidiary of the RIAA and MPAA. Texas Republican, said. Mr. Smith said that when Congress created the Homeland Security Department, it specifically created an advocate’s position for those in the legal immigration process, but it declined to create one for illegal immigrants, who the courts have regularly ruled are not entitled to the same protections as citizens and legal residents. |

| #7 Nothing like debasing the value [and legitimacy] of the citizen's vote. Just like they do with the money. |

| #6 The sad part is the only reason Smith is speaking against this, the reason *only* Smith is speaking, is because he is in deep political trouble, and facing a well funded primary opponent; no other Republican gives a hoot, or would care if Obama appointed a dozen (more) prostitutes to 'Czar' jobs. "That's a president thing, not our problem." |

| #3 Next, we'll have a czar to support the orcas from Sea World, since PETA can't seem to carry the ball. |

| #2 How about an advocate for the CITIZENS and LEGAL IMMIGRANTS of the United States? That would be an entirely new concept for Homeland [In]Security - and a long, long, absent concept for Congress itself. (Hey - I can dream can't I?) |
