Insult, injury to the unemployed

America's unemployment rate is an awful 10.2 percent. Millions of U.S. citizens and legal immigrants who want to work cannot find jobs, and the employment picture may not improve for months or even years.

Yet the Obama administration says that early next year is the time for Congress to legalize the estimated 12 million to 20 million illegal aliens in this country.

We and millions of U.S. citizens have a different opinion: There is never a "good" time to reward illegal alien lawbreakers by making them legal.

But legalizing illegals when millions of U.S. citizens, as well as immigrants who came here in accordance with our laws, cannot find work will be a direct "slap in the face."
