TYLER - If you've ever purchased a gun or applied for a job you've probably been asked whether or not you're a U.S. citizen.  Washington officials who oppose the Arizona Immigration Law say it opens the door to racial profiling, but Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert says what's happening in Arizona isn't illegal and people are asked about their citizenship every day across the country.

• Last night, Bill White wrote on Facebook: “In Rand Paul’s victory speech last night, he said, ‘We’ve come to take our government back from the special interests who think that the federal government is their own personal ATM,’ and from politicians who hand out ‘checks emblazoned with their signature as if it was their money to give.’

In 3 days last week, Perry flew… to 5 cities at taxpayers’ expense, holding press conferences, delivering $2,325,000 in checks.”
This IDIOT Governor JUST CUT THE EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT SYSTEM 75.8 MILLION DOLLARS OF THE STATES EMPLOYEES HARD EARNED MONEY SEE THE LBB) JUST TO TURN AROUND AND HAND OUT $2,325,000 in checks? TO WHO AND FOR WHAT?
IF YOU VOTE FOR THIS CROOK GOVERNOR OR LT. GOVERNOR YOU ARE WORSE THAN AN OBGYN PERFORMING AN ABORTION ON HIS/HER OWN DAUGHTER.

So now Louie Gohmert is an expert on citizenship and immigration. What a colossal bunch of dunces we have. Idiots who have never lived in countries where this sort of garbage is commonplace. In fact, they are all so thoroughly spoiled by the good life here that they are casually talking about throwing it out just because we are apparently too dumb to fix a border problem. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Sir are you saying Mr Gohmert is wrong,i hope not.If your here illegal please tell me your location so we can deport yo self back home.

HE IS WRONG.....Individual states do not have the right to create their own immigration laws or citizenship laws. He and you need to actualy read the U.S. Constitution.

They are asked by NON GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS (SUCH AS LAW ENFORCEMENT) but agencies such as a private business. BIG DIFFERANCE !!
Why doesn't Louie Gohmert file a bill requireing all U.S. businesses to use the federal E-Verify that is 99.5% accurate. A bill that would have harsh punishments for those who hire illegals.
