The American Pundit

Umm, no. Allah points out that refusing to enforce the law, isn’t the same as breaking it. Allah’s actually excited that she’s talking. I guess I should be, too. It’s kind of like letting John Kerry tell jokes; It makes us look better. The media’s portraying her as a lovely mother, ripped from the arms of her son, who just wanted to hold a job, become an American, and pay taxes. Except for the fact that she had him here, she’s been convicted of Social Security fraud, and even fellow illegals didn’t like her blatant entitlement attitude.

Let there be no mistakes. She thinks she’s wonderful:

“If my deportation has united the people, for me it’s good,” she said. “That price had to be paid. If that’s the way it happened, I’m satisfied.”

And this:

Why do you think you were arrested and deported now?

They always had plans to deport me because I speak out. They saw me as a threat to the United States because of the actions I took in favor of legalization. I knew this. They need to send a message to the undocumented.

And here’s how much she had assimilated over the 10 years she was here:

Arellano, however, was focused Monday evening on the agonizing question of whether her son, Saul, would stay with her in Mexico or return to Chicago, where he has lived most of his life. Family friend Rev. Walter “Slim” Coleman said late Monday he expects the boy will return to Chicago for school. Earlier, Arellano had said she hoped he would stay with her, but would take Saul’s wishes into account.

“I will continue to tell him about the beauties of my country,” she said. “He will know that he will have a marvelous future here.”…

Arellano said Monday that she has no intention of trying to return either legally or illegally to the United States. She has already received a job offer in Mexico.

“I am in my country. I can walk through the streets free, without fear,” she said.

She’s not just referring to Mexico as “my country” since her return. She was saying the same thing when she was here. Let’s remember that her supporters marched through the streets with Mexican flags, before they were told it wouldn’t help their “this is our home” game.

Anyway, I’m not sure how her argument makes sense to her. We broke the law by not enforcing it for a while? We didn’t have an agreement with the illegal aliens, allowing them to cross. We didn’t promise them a better life. They broke the law the second their foot went over the border without documents. We had the right to enforce our laws, at any time, and deport them as our law dictates.

So, she’s back in her country now. She’s been offered a job, has her family there, was invited to speak with the Mexican Congress, and hopes her son comes to live with her. She says she’s free to walk the streets without fear. Sounds great. It sounds like living here was just not allowing to live her life fully. Better off there.

That being said, had she come the legal way, we would’ve welcomed her with open arms. Maybe she should’ve filled out the paperwork and waited like everyone else. Instead, she wanted what she wanted, when she wanted it, and how she wanted to do it. Such a waste.
