Is Eliott Spitzer deaf?

At first look it appears that New York Governor Eliot Spitzer backed down from the idiotic policy of rewarding illegal immigrants with the right to get a New York State drivers license. But, no Spitzer still wants to go ahead with giving these lawbreakers a license and he wants to make it cheaper and so they can renew by mail. I'm not sure Chertoff was rolled by Spitzer but, he did say something that Spitzer and other New York State politicians need to read real slow:

"I do not endorse and I do not think it's a good idea to give undocumented workers licenses or IDs of any kind,"- Michael Chertoff

Did you hear that Governor Spitzer? Apparently not:

"Backing away from his vow to give immigrants the same licenses as citizens, Spitzer announced a compromise deal with the Bush administration to create three kinds of licenses - two that comply with federal law, and one illegal immigrants can obtain."

What exactly is Spitzer's idea of correcting this situation:

"We're on our way to offering to New Yorkers the option of three secure licenses to drive and travel in this state, in this country and throughout the Western Hemisphere," Spitzer said at Homeland Security Department headquarters.

Hey idiot the whole purpose is to not make it easier for those here illegally to travel. That way we encourage people to come here legally and become citizens and don't make it easier for terrorists. Maybe that's why in appearing with Spitzer, DHS Secretary Michael Chertoff said the enhanced licenses "address our concerns," but also made it crystal-clear - four times - that he's not thrilled at the illegal immigrant component. It seems Spitzer still did not hear that. I guess we citizens will have to speak a little louder.
