Obama Regime Issued Nearly 5.5 Million Work Permits To Foreign Nationals Since 2009

Pre-amnesty?  I wouldn't have thought it possible for The One to do ANYTHING "under the radar," but here we go:

More than 5.46 million foreign nationals have received work permits from the federal government since 2009, according to a new report from the Center for Immigration Studies. Data uncovered from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services agency reveal that approximately 982,000 work permits were given to illegal [alien]s and other foreign nationals unqualified for admission, most of whom crossed the border without inspection.

The remarkable number of work permits granted by the federal government to law-breaking aliens better explains how all net jobs growth since 2007 has gone to [alien]s. The government issued approximately 1.7 million work permits since 2009 to aliens whose status was not known, not recorded, or not disclosed by USCIS, according to the report. The report says employment is not authorized by law for approximately 1.2 million [alien]s who collected work permits while having a temporary visa status. And the data show that approximately 1,200 new work permits went to unlawful entrants who were denied asylum, were suspected of using fraudulent documentation, were stowaways, or were refused at a port of entry.

The saving grace?  There hasn't actually been any job growth, net or otherwise, since 2009.  But if there had been, all of it would have gone to illegals - a quiet, de facto amnesty precursor five-plus years before the Immigration Proclamation made it unlawfully "official"..  Take that, greedy, racist Americans!

Border erasure extremists insist that migrants should be imported as cheap labor in this country because "they'll do the jobs that Americans don't want to do."  But wouldn't it be nice if Americans were actually given the option of actually turning down these low-end/entry-level jobs before they were given over to immigrants?  And, you know, only allow imported laborers that come here legally?  I wonder if Dems realize the billyclub-sized wedge issue they would have against Republicans if immigration was actually limited to the legal variety.  That might actually be enough to send the GOP the way of the Whigs.
