Barack Obama has mixed up priorities

So President Obama believes Arizona's immigration law, which closely mirrors federal law, is misguided. Well, he can believe what he wants and so can I. Here is what I believe.

Using taxpayer dollars for free medical services to illegal immigrants instead of providing funds for cancer research or Alzheimer's disease, or juvenile diabetes - that's misguided.

Spending billions of dollars on special programs in education for the children of illegal immigrants instead of providing better programs for special needs children - that's misguided.

Providing taxpayer dollars for social service programs for illegal immigrants instead of making the American Legion and VFW have fundraisers to help vets with housing. health, and career services - that's misguided.

Other countries, including Mexico, can stop, require ID, and if necessary detain or deport undocumented people, but we should not - that's misguided.

Oh, one other thing, Mr. President, I believe it is our federal government that is sadly misguided.
