KANSAS CAVES TO ILLEGALS

When I saw this story by Sarah Bahari of The Wichita Eagle, I felt sick. Not distressed, nor disturbed, nor angry. Just deep-in-the-gut-sick.
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius promised Saturday in Wichita to work on allowing undocumented immigrants to receive driver's licenses and in-state tuition to state universities.
So, non-citizens of the US are going to get Kansas driver's licenses. Also, non-citizens of the US and non-residents of Kansas are going to get to go to college by paying resident tuition rates.

What the hell is going on? As Governor of the State of Kansas, isn't she supposed to support the residents of Kansas? It appears that she's putting out a clarion call to any downtrodden population across the planet that they should come to Kansas because they'll be treated better than Americans.

Her statements were made during a Wichita Hispanic Chamber of Commerce meeting where she was urged:
. . . to find ways to bring more Spanish-speaking adult education to the state, offer incentives to Spanish-speaking physicians who move here, and encourage more banks to allow undocumented immigrants to open checking accounts. [and]

Citing the booming Hispanic population, Sebelius said their education and job training will directly affect the state's economic climate.

Providing higher education at an affordable price to undocumented immigrants is very important, Sebelius said. [Bolded by ed.]
Excuse me, but I just can't continue right now. I feel sick.

There's a bunch more here.

Thanks to Shameless Self-Promotion.
