No, Kris Kobach, it's not 'illegal aliens' scamming the system, it's you

Smelling money and attention, Kris Kobach ramps up attacks on Obama and ‘illegal aliens’

Smelling national attention and cash from his other job as a lawyer, Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach is doubling down on his harsh criticism of President Barack Obama’s immigration policies and immigrants themselves.

First came Kobach’s widely derided comments about “ethnic cleansing” on his radio show last week, days before Obama took action to shield millions of immigrants from deportation.

The second attack came this weekend in a Washington Post feature, in which Kobach threatened to lead a national lawsuit against the president’s executive actions.

(snip)

If Kobach is working all these hours on immigration issues in his office, what’s he doing to earn the $86,003 he’s paid by Kansas taxpayers to be the secretary of state?

(end snip)

Not to worry, he invented Crosscheck to take 'care' of the voters. /sarcasm off

As long as you have a large population of illegals in this country, the big meatpackers, construction companies and other large corporations have a pool of people to exploit. That's the real reason why we don't see immigration reform.
