“Gruber Democrats”: You can’t be that stupid again, can you?

As I stated in Grubergate, Obama and his administration think democrats are stupid. I like to call them Gruber Democrats. You fell for Obamacare which was a massive power grab dressed up like compassion, backed by purposely deceptive math, obfuscation, and downright lies. (For you Gruber Democrats: obfuscate means to be evasive, unclear, or confusing.) Obama must figure Democrats were stupid enough to be duped into supporting Obamacare, let’s try amnesty.

Allow me to point out some things about Obama’s executive order on immigration now so you are not embarrassed that you supported this later, when a “Gruber” is caught on video saying how stupid you were for believing Obama.

The President said in the announcement of his executive order on immigration, “It does not grant citizenship or the right to stay here permanently, or offer the same benefits that citizens receive. Only Congress can do that. All we’re saying is we’re not going to deport you”. That is a downright lie, or a Gruberism, as I like to call it. What he didn’t tell you was that this executive order also gives certain illegal immigrants work papers and social security numbers. This is where he runs afoul of the constitution. I won’t bother belaboring the unconstitutionally of this action because I have become painfully aware of the fact that few Democrats even pretend to care about the constitution any more. So let me focus on other aspects of this travesty.

Obama says there are not enough money and people to enforce the immigration laws so he is deferring deportations for certain illegal immigrants. To do this he is going to set up offices and hire government employees to process these new applications including fingerprints, criminal background checks, and verification of residence in the US for at least five years. The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website says that application fees will cover the increased cost. Even you Gruber-democrats can’t believe that!

And consider this: when it became too onerous to check if people applying for subsidies for Obamacare really deserved them, they allowed people to “self certify”. All they had to do is sign a paper saying they qualified. It is clear Obama wants as many people as possible to take advantage of this new executive order. Does anyone really think he is going to demand that the applications be thoroughly reviewed?

Applicants must pay Social Security taxes. So what do you think will happen if they get their work papers and don’t pay their taxes? Will they be deported? After all, Obama asked in his announcement, “Are we a nation that accepts the cruelty of ripping children from their parents’ arms, or are we a nation that values families and works together to keep them together?” And does anyone doubt that they will be eligible to receive Social Security, Medicare, and other benefits if the executive order is not reversed?

According to the USCIS website they plan to process the applications within a year. Why then, don’t they use these resources to clear out the backlog of legal immigrants waiting for their application to be approved?

And how do illegal immigrants prove they have been in the country for the minimum amount of time? They can show utility bills. Illegal immigrants can get fake social society cards and IDs, does anyone doubt they can get fake water bills?

It has also come to light that employers do not have to provide healthcare to illegal immigrants with the new work authorizations, as is required for American citizens because of Obamacare. So if an employer has to decide between hiring an illegal immigrant or an American for whom he has to provide healthcare or pay a $3000 fine, who do you think he will hire?

As the old saying goes; “Fool a Gruber-democrat once, shame on you. Fool one twice, shame on the stupid Democrat”.
