Immigration Song and Dance

If you were watching The president's immigration skit last Thursday, you were treated to his plan to get something done. That will show us who the third branch of government is, by golly. For those of you not watching Univision last week, here's how the plan went down:

Three new bureaucratic task forces to hopelessly confuse strengthen border security. Because there's no problem that can't be made more better by putting a few more friends on the payroll. Also, make sure they don't talk to each other or people already doing that job.
Prioritize deportation of the really bad guys first. Meaning anyone who gets out of line.
Scatter "Secure Communities" because those were really starting to work
Give the ICE officers a fat raise. Because if enforcement is not an option they need a reason to come to work.
Give incentives for all immigrants to get here before they turn 16. That way, you can decouple them from that subversive family oriented support as quickly as possible.
Give preferential treatment to those who've managed to hide effectively for five years, and especially if they have kids while they are here. They need to be dependent on government out of the gate, of course.
Release the detainees who appear to be talented. Don't want any positive examples laying around the community centers. That would ruin everything.

As usual, the politicians are not looking for a real solution, or even to clarify the US policy on immigration. Its a complicated mess, only because thats what they want it to be. The politicos are fond of pointing out our rich heritage in welcoming immigrants. What they leave out is that all the immigrants learned English, took care of their own, and respected our country and our traditions. Instead, our elected representatives are actively supporting dual language programs, in the process guaranteeing non-integration of the newcomers into society. Some melting pot.

Here's the Wizer's plan. Drop all the bi-lingual support and force all immigrants to learn English. It's the compassionate thing to do. Term limit the benefits so that the immigrants know it is a safety net and not a hammock. Tell them this is the land of opportunity, and they are free to be part of it. If they 
want to come here it has to be for the right reasons. Finally, yes, they should read the constitution. In fact, we all should. It might change a lot of things for the better.
