CA Governor Brown Signs Bill Giving State Financial Aid to Illegals
2011-10-08
I'm soooo angry. My kids don't qualify but these do? The Democrats in this great state should be evicted...but who would take em?
Gov. Jerry Brown has signed a bill allowing illegal immigrant students applying to state universities to receive state-funded scholarships and financial aid.
If there's money available for illegals, there's too much money
AB131 by Democratic Assemblyman Gil Cedillo of Los Angeles is the second half of the California Dream Act. Brown, a Democrat, signed the first part in July, which approved private scholarships and loans for illegal immigrant students.

The bill requires the immigrant students to meet the same requirements as others but specifies they would only qualify for financial aid after all the other legal residents have applied
the same people who apply "colorblind rules" will find a way around this requirement too. As if there's additional unused money available while we're shutting down State Parks?
Brown says the bill gives top students a chance to expand their educational opportunities
GilCedillo is a racist Mexican-"American" and needs to stripped of his citizenship and be deported

#8  Now all they have to do is twist the qualifications so that only illegal aliens can meet it. For example requiring them to understand 2 languages (fluent in a foreign one and can say "RACISM!" in english.)

#7  The strength of the Afghanistan economy at nearly all levels is supported by a robust "illicit drug" trade. Perhaps Governor Brown should consider...... oh wait.

#6  Barbara, unless of course, the ONE does via executive order. (Yes, I know the constitution says that Congress controls the money, but the Constitution is a living document, subject to update in order to fit today' "requirements".)

#5  "the question is how soon will us Kansans (and other states) be forced to bail California out?"

As soon as the other 98 Senators and 372 Representatives want to lose their jobs, bman.

#4  No the question is how soon will us Kansans (and other states) be forced to bail California out?

#2  No doubt this will lead to another round of well-deserved mockery for the once great state of California. But I think before we start, we should pause for a moment and honor them for performing a most interesting experiment, namely: What if we put every stupid idea we could possibly think of in a pile and did them all at once?

Here's hoping we can profit from the lesson and that we don't get stuck cleaning up the wreckage of what was once the most prosperous state in the Union. Good luck, suckers!

#1  I have this mental Image of Chickens, Millions of them all waiting impatiently for dinner.

And the State just gave it to them, all of them.

BUCK, BUCK, BUCKAW.
