Via Breitbart.tv President Obama’s aunt, who lived in the country illegally for years, says that she did not take advantage of the system, instead she says, “The system took advantage of me.” She says this even though she lived in public housing and collected disability for years while she was in the country illegally. She also said, “If I come as an immigrant, you have the obligation to make me a citizen.”

“NO” VOTE ON DADT & DREAM ACT
Here is video of Democrat Sens. Blanche Lincoln and Harry Reid voting “no” on the cloture vote to bring up the Defense Authorization Bill, which included amendments on getting rid of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” and proposing passage of the “Dream Act.” Reid was pushing for adoption of the bill and the amendments, but if you watch the video, you will see Blanche Lincoln enter the screen at the top right. She indicates her vote “no” on bringing up the bill. She then walks around to Harry Reid and pats him on the back while saying something to him. Then, notice that Reid walks back to his desk, faces the clerk and votes “no” on the bill!!!! The video then shows Reid’s sanctimoniuous comments later in which he slams Republicans for opposing the bill – when he voted against it himself!!!! This just shows what a crass, political animal Harry Reid is. He knows he will get credit among Hispanics for his public comments pushing the Dream Act, but at the end he votes against the bill so he is officially on record opposing it. He hopes to get support and votes from both sides by his actions.
Here is video of the results being announced in the U.S. Senate this afternoon on the cloture vote to bring up the Defense Authorization Bill with amendments attached that would end the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy in the military, and adopt the “Dream Act.” The vote failed 56-43, falling four votes short of the needed 60 votes. No Republicans voted for it.
Sen. Dick Durbin spoke on the Senate Floor today after a cloture vote failed 56-43 that would have brought up the Defense Authorization Bill with the “Dream Act” amendment attached to it. Durbin vowed to continue fighting for the “Dream Act,” and challenged the “11 Republicans” who have supported it in the past to stop “cowering in the shadows” and vote for it when it is brought up again in the future. Durbin called passage of the “Dream Act” his “highest priority.”
