Given Attorney General Eric Holder's recent dictate that States cannot purge their voter rolls of illegal aliens and dead people, thanks ACORN and the DNC, Holder now reverses a Bush policy that to any sane individual would seem fair. Why do the American taxpayer have to automatically fund legal counsel, usually the lowest of the low scum suckers that you see with full page ads in the Yellow Pages, for people who break into this country and steal services meant for tax paying, and usually more for poor, non tax paying citizens, and legal resident workers. Many of these people are multiple violators and criminals as well, and the costs are staggering....look it up.

Obama Reverses Bush Rule: Illegals Now Get Lawyers
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 1:40 PM






WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration has reversed a rule issued in the last days of the Bush administration that said immigrants facing deportation do not have an automatic right to an effective lawyer.


Attorney General Eric Holder says he is vacating the order, issued by predecessor Michael Mukasey, and instructing the Justice Department to study whether a new rule is needed.


Mukasey had issued a 33-page decision in January saying the Constitution does not entitle someone facing deportation to have a case reopened based upon shoddy work by a lawyer. Mukasey said the Justice Department does have the discretion to reopen such cases if it wishes to do so.


Immigrant rights groups had criticized the Mukasey decision.

Five broken promises in a continuous stream of lies, broken promises, deception, corruption, etc., etc.....

Five Promises
A look at how the GM bailout was supposed to go.

By Stephen Spruiell

GMAC, the company that finances car purchases for GM, has already received two infusions of taxpayer assistance totaling $12.5 billion. Now, the feds say it needs up to $5.6 billion more. Sen. Chris Dodd, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, was among the first to break the news. “There will be an infusion, I’m told, beyond what they’ve already seen,” he told the Dow Jones news service. “But I’ve also been assured by the administration that this is the last of it.”

Really?

Nearly $100 billion in taxpayer dollars wasted by government agencies
Quote
WASHINGTON -- More than $98 billion in taxpayer dollars spent by government agencies was wasted, much of it on questionable claims for tax credits and Medicare benefits, representing an increase of $26 billion from the previous year.

In all, about 5 percent of spending in federal programs in fiscal year 2009 was improper, according to new details of a government financial report that were released Tuesday. Saying the overall error rate was similar in 2008, officials attributed the $26 billion jump to some changes in how to define improper spending as well as an increase in overall spending because of the recession.
