    On Tuesday, Rep. Maxine Waters told a crowd gathered at a job fair in Detroit: “The Congressional Black Caucus loves the president, too. We're supportive of the president, but we're getting tired. We're getting tired. The unemployment is unconscionable. We don't know what the strategy is. We don't know why on this trip that he's in the United States now, he's not in any black community.”

    Rep. Waters has been complaining all week about the Depression-level unemployment rates among blacks, and the seeming unwillingness of this president to deal with it.

    Waters said recently: “There is a growing frustration in this country and in minority communities because the unemployment rates are so high.”

    And, those rates are not only high—they are unprecedented.

    In June, CBS News reported that while the nation’s overall unemployment rate was around 9.1 percent, it was 16.2 percent African Americans, and a even higher still for black men. But, for black teens, the figure soars to a disastrous 41 percent. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/06/19/eveningnews/main20072425.shtml

    Of course, on Thursday, the Obama administration announced that they will now longer deport illegal aliens who have not been convicted of crimes. But even worse, the administration will also reportedly distribute work permits to those illegal aliens allowed to stay.

    A recent study conducted by the Chicago Urban League and the Alternative Schools Network showed the tremendous impact illegal aliens are having on the employment levels of low-skilled American workers, particularly for young workers.

    The study revealed a rather shocking revelation, in that, the unemployment rate among teens and young adults is soaring to unprecedented level, while millions of illegal aliens continue to hold jobs.

    Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX) and Rep. Gary Miller (R-CA) released the following joint statement on the study’s findings:

    “During the course of the 2007-2009 recession, the employment rate of the nation’s teens fell steeply to 26.2% by October-November 2009, setting new record lows each year. No other age group has experienced employment declines of this magnitude in the current recession. Young adults 20-24 years old in both Illinois and the nation also have been adversely affected by the deterioration in labor market developments in the state and nation in recent years, especially men, Blacks and Hispanics, and non-college graduates.”

    Rep. Smith went on to say: “The fact is that illegal immigrants take jobs from American workers, particularly poor and disadvantaged citizens and legal immigrants. The best outcome for low-skilled citizen and legal immigrant workers is the removal of the illegal immigrant population. The very jobs that illegal immigrants occupy rightfully belong to out of work citizens and legal immigrants.”

    “At home in California, almost weekly I hear from my constituents that illegal immigration is exacerbating the unemployment crisis.”

    Congressmen Smith and Miller have recently formed the Reclaim American Jobs Caucus.

    In early 2010, the California Immigrant Policy Center released a study revealing that 84 percent of Latino and Asian immigrant men were employed, as compared to 78 percent of American men of Latino and Asian descent. The report also found that 12 percent of Latino and Asian immigrants are actually self-employed, as opposed to 8 percent of their U.S.-born counterparts.

    In short, the study conducted by the University of Southern California’s Program for Environmental and Regional Equity, found that currently, immigrants (both legal and illegal) are as a group, more likely to have a job than are American workers.

    These studies provided further proof for what many of us have been saying for years…That contrary to what open borders politicians such as Barack Obama want us to believe, illegal aliens are taking jobs away from American citizens.

    It has become quite clear that Obama simply takes black voters for granted and has hitched his hopes to the millions of soon-to-be legalized mostly Latino illegal aliens, who are taking jobs away from black Americans.

    The Congressional Black Caucus should spearhead a movement in Congress to impeach this president who seems to make his own laws when his country’s laws no longer suit him politically.

    Watching the Democrats just use and abuse the Black Community is sad... the worst part...too many have bought into the Jesse Jackson / Barack Obama / Al Sharpton lie.

    Obviously the Black Congressional Caucus doesn't understand that Obama is President of ALL the People, and isn't a personal possession of blacks.

    I have heard, a few years ago now, that the trend is for teens to put off work and attend college instead. Perhaps that's why teens aren't working? Parents want their kids to go to college, parents don't want to push their teens out of the home at 16 anymore and force the teens to scrap.

    As for why Blacks in America are highly unemployed, it's because they have the disadvantage of always being one step behind other American groups. Black Americans, I think, moved to urban centers looking to make their fortunes working in the then booming factories, having finally saved up enough money from working agriculture to have a mass migration to the cities, but it happened at the tail-end of the industrial boom. They didn't build up enough generational wealth to pass on to their children.

    The trend of urban renewal, raising property values, just hits the Blacks in the pocketbook reducing their savings and delays their move onto the suburban lifestyle.

    The DREAM Act failed to pass the peoples representatives smell test....yet, here it is...unconstitutionally and inexcusably implemented via executive fiat.

    Such a clear and present danger to a nation founded on laws is, IMO, worthy of "hysterics".

    Illegal immigration has been going on for DECADES..

    And there are plenty of illegals besides Mexicans.

    Work permits for those workers who are needed and deportation for the others.

    There are immigration laws in place that about a million people a year abide to attain citizenship.

    to simply extralegally and arbitrarily determine which illegal entrant is worthy of concessions is not only a slap in the face of those million or so who've jumped through the proper hoops, it is a gross injustice to current American citizens suffering through a horrendous job market.

    (how are you holding up, btw?)

    The US has supported illegal immigration with our hard earned dollars for 6 decades.

    Americans are NOT scrambling for jobs that illegals will accept.

    I am a lifelong Republican who got sick of Bush and the neocons.

    Immigration laws have been on the books a LONG time.. WHO has enforced them in the past and why not?

    Maybe stop breeding like cockroaches with no pot to p!ss in and maybe most of your problems will go away?

    No sympathy here. You have no jobs because you either didn't finish high school or never bothered to go to college or just be motivated and start a business.

    But I'm not letting Obama off the hook either. All his 1 Trillion stimulus did was feed CEO's bonuses and put the future Americans who aren't even born yet into debt.

    There are very few jobs Americans won't do, as should be evidenced by the show T.V. Dirty Jobs. Some of the ones on that show boggle the mind.

    Illegals lower wages for many jobs that used to pay well.

    Illegal immigrants work in many sectors of the U.S. economy. According to National Public Radio in 2005, about 3 PERCENT WORK IN AGRICULTURE; 33 percent have jobs in service industries; and substantial numbers can be found in construction and related occupations (16 percent), and in production, installation, and repair (17 percent).[5] According to USA Today in 2006, about 4 percent work in farming; 21 percent have jobs in service industries; and substantial numbers can be found in construction and related occupations (19 percent), and in production, installation, and repair (15 percent), with 12% in sales, 10% in management, and 8% in transportation.

    So why don't we first employ the unemployed, and then hand out work permits? Wouldn't that make more sense?

    We don't need illegals. We have plenty of low level non violent American criminals that could fill the employment needs. What's even better is they don't have to get paid. It's a win-win for the employers.

    And it's not slave labor you ACLU'ers. They're paying their dues for the wrongs they brought this country and putting the American taxpayers in debt.

    You should look up how many times this approach was taken by republican presidents. Seems all presidents are prepared to unconstitutionally and inexcuably implement policy by fiat, some one helluvalot more than others.

    Oh dear.

    The president is like America's sheriff. He has the legal authority to command his federal employees (deputies) to take discretion. Otherwise under the letter of the law the police can arrest you for littering or j-walking.

    "Sheriff's" don't make the law, and most who are caught handing out arbitrary leniency, favors or priviledges unevenly usually have a pissed off electorate to contend with.

    Black people will still vote for Obama's stupid leftist loser ass, he does not care about the black people who are conditioned to obey their masters on the democratic leftist loser plantation, and he does not care about anyone else either, to him people who vote for him are but useful idiots, and common leftist loser leader trait, like Stalin, Hitler, Chavez and others.

    Every-time I watch "COPS" there is at least some segment where the LEO catches someone with weed and lets them off with a warning. We're these police officers committing crimes?

    Bull(*)(*)(*)(*) aside, they are indeed violating their oath to uphold the laws of their state or municipality.
