In January, 2009, the Bush administration issued a ruling that said illegal immigrants facing deportation don’t have an automatic right to an attorney. That was soooo January.
Now Attorney General Eric Holder is vacating the order and instructing the Justice Department to determine if a new rule is needed. In other words, illegal aliens get free attorneys and you get the bill.
According to the Bush administration’s interpretation of the Constitution, illegal aliens were not entitled to have cases reopened because of shoddy work by their lawyers.
That sent immigrant rights groups to howling. Forget the fact that illegal aliens are criminals by virtue of the fact that they are in this country illegally. Or undocumentedly, as the activists would prefer.
After all, we are the world. We are the children. We are the taxpaying dopes.

Why shouldn't we pick up the tab for the illegals attorney fees? We're already paying to house, clothe, feed, and educate them plus giving them free medical care to boot! Just put it on Joe Sixpack's tab, the dumb slob voted for Holder's boss didn't he? Time to ante up, be patriotic, do as "Generous Joe" Biden says and pay your fair share Louie Lunchpail!
Darn, I've got to log off and go move some more financial assets offshore, after all I don't want to get stuck paying any taxes on my wealth, that's for the clock-punchers baby!
I cant tell if the left loves lawyers more than unions...its like a giant orgy and the tax payer is stuck holding the mop.
