Why Illegal Aliens Must Be Licensed to Drive

By John W. Lillpop

Liberal politicians in California and elsewhere have attempted on several occasions to grant driving privileges to illegal aliens, otherwise known as undocumented Democrats.

This utterly stupid leftist argument goes something like this:

Illegal aliens are “good-hearted, hard-working” folk--even G.W. Bush says so--who are quite concerned about breaking California laws by driving without a license and insurance.

Think about it. California has about six million criminals who have invaded America by crossing our borders illegally, and who have ignored all U.S. immigration laws.

These criminals access public services to which they are not entitled, evade both federal and state income taxes, and have overcrowded California prisons to the point where authorities are no longer able to effectively manage U.S. citizen inmates.

Illegal aliens have also forced hospitals and medical clinics into bankruptcy and out of business because those facilities are required to provide medical care regardless of ability to pay. Thus, facilities built for the care and treatment of U.S. citizens are no longer available to citizens.

Yet, liberals want thinking people to believe that illegal aliens simply want to do what is right in order to comply with the law?

Has human history ever recorded a more illogical, dumb argument?

Actually, there is one argument that is nearly as foolish: Liberals who would grant driving privileges to illegal aliens are the same anarchists who vehemently oppose laws requiring positive identification at the voting polls.

In other words, if liberals had their way, illegal aliens would be licensed to drive to the polls, but would not be challenged before voting.

Of course, most, if not all, votes cast by illegal aliens would be for Democrats.

A right-wing cynic might speculate that opposition to positive voter ID is just another instance of Democrats eschewing the rule of law and democratic principles in order to gain partisan advantage.

OK, so call me a right-wing cynic!

To illegal aliens genuinely concerned about following the law, I have a perfectly logical suggestion:

Head south, do not look back, do not come back, and do not write--even if you are able to!

Comprehende~?
