Commentary: Foes run over sensible N.Y. license plan - CNN.com

Score one for the knee-jerk naysayers. You know the type: those who find it easier to criticize proposed solutions to tough problems than to propose solutions of their own, which then could be criticized.

Faced with the problem of what to do with thousands of illegal immigrants who drive on state roadways every day to go to work for people who insist with a straight face that they want nothing to do with illegal immigrants, New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer proposed a controversial, yet terribly sensible, plan to give the undocumented a state-issued driver's license that would be easily discernible from licenses carried by U.S. citizens and legal residents.

You've got to be shitting me.  This moron seems to think that giving illegal immigrants driving licence's/permits/whatever you want to call it is a "sensible plan"? 

And of course, he wants to make it all sound like it's a "racist" thing.  Simply put, it isn't.  Driving is a privilege that American citizens enjoy.  When you are unable to drive due to health or illegal driving habits, you can't drive anymore.

So why should illegal immigrants be allowed to have this privilege?  Why should illegal immigrants be given anything except emergency health care and a trip back home?

Illegal immigrants deserve none of the things that American citizens enjoy.  We don't get those privileges in other countries, so why should we give them to illegals here?

Easy, they shouldn't.  Want to be able to drive in America?  Become a citizen.
