Prince William County (Map, News) - Corey Stewart marched to the front lines of the war on illegal immigration convinced that it was the right thing to do, that it was popular, and that it was possible.

The young Republican was elected chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors in November 2006 to fill out the unexpired term of Sean Connaughton, who had been appointed U.S. maritime administrator. The following summer, he began cracking down on the county’s growing illegal-immigrant population, which many residents said was spiraling out of control and driving down the region’s quality of life.

Stewart, 40, unapologetically championed a policy that would direct police to check residents’ immigration status and restrict services to illegal immigrants.

When opponents charged that his efforts brought turmoil to the county, Stewart said “tumultuous can be a good thing.â€

Critics say Stewart has used illegal immigration to serve his political ambitions.




I find such a statement from the "critics", aka pro-illegals, to be more of the usual hypocrisy.

There is a long list of politicians, starting with Obama, who have used illegal immigrants for their own political ambition up to, and including, making promises to the ethnocentric community that they cannot keep.

Corey Stewart has used his position to UPHOLD the laws of this country and restore his community to the American people.
