Bring Me Your Tired, Your Poor, Your Undocumented Democrats

In an apparent case of Jerry Brown envy, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has made it clear he will do what he can to assist anyone on Earth or the closer planets who wishes to crash the American party and live on our hospitality.

The Washington Times reports that Cuomo sent a "Cease and resist" letter to federal immigration authorities demanding that they stop inconveniencing citizens of other countries living in New York illegally.

Of course the people Cuomo is conferring rights on are not American citizens of New York who don't fancy picking up the tab for the care and feeding of a significant fraction of the Southern Hemisphere.

The Times suggests that Cuomo's latest spasm has something to do with a looming primary challenge from actress Cynthia Nixon who is occupying the tiny sliver of political landscape to the left of Cuomo and making a lot of noise.

Cuomo of course denied that his nullification edict has anything to do with New York politics.

No, Cuomo claims that he is responding to "Lawlessness." Not the lawlessness of citizens of other countries here illegally, but the lawlessness of immigration officials who attempt to return these folks to their own countries.

Cuomo did not immediately return my phone call inquiring as to how many Mexicans, Colombians, Salvadorans, and Nicaraguans he plans to put up at the governor's mansion in Albany.
