June 29, 2012 Victor Davis Hanson: Obama Amnesty Cynical and Suspect "President Obama recently issued an edict exempting an estimated 800,000 to 1 million illegal aliens from the consequences of federal immigration law. Ostensibly that blanket amnesty applies to those who arrived before the age of 16 and are younger than 30; who are in, or graduated from, high school or have served in the military; and who have not been convicted of a felony or multiple misdemeanors. And while most Americans sympathize with helping those who were brought into the United States as toddlers, were raised as de facto Americans, and followed the rules, the policy of exempting hundreds of thousands en masse may create far more problems in the long run than it solves," says Victor Davis Hanson.
Playboy Model Get "Genius" Visa "Shera Bechard, the Canadian-born former girlfriend of Playboy Enterprises founder Hugh Hefner, would not be an obvious candidate for the special visas that the U.S. government reserves for 'individuals with extraordinary ability,'" Reuters reports. "Playboy magazine named Bechard Miss November in 2010, and she also started an online photo-sharing craze called "Frisky Friday." Neither seems quite on the level of an "internationally recognized award, such as a Nobel Prize," which the government cites as a possible qualification."
Less Immigration Means Less School Spending Californiawatch.org reports on how lower immigration means reduced schooling costs in California. "This public elementary school has for 40 years served children who have just arrived from Latin America and speak only Spanish, who beyond its walls are out of their element in almost every way. Those students are dramatically fewer now. As the flow of immigrants from Mexico has dwindled in recent years, the school's enrollment has plummeted from a high of 264 students in the mid-2000s to 72 this past spring."
