Let me get this straight: you are opposed to clerks in the DMV who refuse to follow Herr Spitzer's command to issue drivers' licenses to illegal aliens because their actions threaten the rule of law. But the lawbreaking illegals themselves are not an affront to the rule of law? I think they call this irony. Maybe now you can see what happens when the federal and state governments decide to ignore the laws which say that immigrants must go through a legal process to reside in this country. Sort of a domino effect. After all, aren't the rebellious clerks entitled to amnesty? There at least citizens!
