#1 Wouldn't it be funny if the dems got the boot from their base the same way the repubs did over illegal immigration? It would be great to see it become the new "third rail" of politics in the US...

#2 Spitzer is many things, but in all ways superior to Hitlery. I pray for a fight between them and their camps.

#3 Spitzer is many things, but in all ways superior to Hitlery.

That's been my perception as well. How odd to see Spitzer pushing such political vomit as driver's licenses for undocumented illegals. Much like the Muslims, the democrats just can't seem to miss an opportunity to slit each others' throats. More power to them, especially so wherever Hillary is concerned.

#4 Don't worry - Jorge Arbusto (Bush) will support Spitzer selling out to illegals.

I will never forgive the Bastard for his shallow, corrupt and cruel illegal immigrant stance.

NO SARC

#6 The Buffalo News (link):

A lawsuit is being filed this afternoon against the Spitzer administration seeking to stop the implementation of a new policy permitting illegal immigrants to obtain driver's licenses.

Rensselaer County Clerk Frank Merola, one of 13 county clerks who have vowed not to implement the new policy when it takes effect Dec. 1, said he will sue Gov. Eliot L. Spitzer and Motor Vehicles Commissioner David Swarts today in State Supreme Court in Albany.

"I think it's a slam dunk for us," Merola said citing a section of law that says Social Security numbers be presented when obtaining a driver's license. The Spitzer administration has said the section does not prevent a license from being given out if an applicant has no Social Security number.

Merola said he also is seeking a preliminary injunction to stop the state from its current activities to implement the new law. He said the state is preparing to send out in the next week letters to 150,000 people who lost their licenses in the past because they provide an incorrect Social Security number.
