'Si se Puede;' Obama, Panderer in Chief, is baaack for more Latino votes.

Election 2012 is coming up soon, so el Señor Presidente Barack Obama, the illegal Immigrant’s best friend needs the LATINO votes desperately, he’s come out for another push towards legalizing the over 15 million, or so illegal aliens in this country by proposing more amnesties.

President Obama delivered his big address on immigration reform at the El Paso border. And his big pitch could be summed up in four words that aren’t generally associated with immigration policy: It’s the economy, stupid.

Obama: “Because undocumented immigrants live in the shadows, where they’re vulnerable to unscrupulous businesses that skirt taxes, and pay workers less than the minimum wage, or cut corners with health and safety laws, this puts companies who follow the rules, and Americans who rightly demand the minimum wage or overtime or just a safe place to work, it puts those businesses at a disadvantage.

One way to strengthen the middle class in America is to reform the immigration system, so that there is no longer massive underground economy, which keeps exploiting cheap source of labor, while depressing wages for everybody else.

I want incomes for middle-class families to rise again. I want prosperity in this country to be widely shared. I want everybody to be able to reach that American dream. And that’s why immigration reform is an economic imperative. It’s an economic imperative.â€

Sounds like common sense to me
