Don't ask - don't tell?

If you are a US citizen? Some lawmakers want the question ( Are you a US citizen?) added to the 2010 census questionaire and you guessed it, right away lefties are crying foul. The outcome of the census will affect the funding states get, so why not count our "guests" ? Rightly so, the feds fail to secure the border, the feds should feed 'em, not the states.
So what do you think???????

What do you mean by "don't ask don't tell" being gay or an illegal alien?

Illegal..........some dems are already objecting to the question being asked on the 2010 form. I did a edit job to try to clarify that in my OP.

I'm not shocked by the liberals stance, its typical.

The question is perfectly fine with me.

You have to remember illegal aliens are a protected species by liberals. Loyal liberal voters and yes they can vote in "sanctuary cities." Yea, Chicago has one of those "don't ask don't tell" voting policies.

Re: Don't ask - don't tell?

Of course they should and if te answer is yes then you throw them in the paddy wagon immediately. you also ask who they used to work for amd who their landlord is.

I don't understand why that question would be a problem. Which "lefties" are "crying foul".

A link would be helpful.

I like the idea too but I don't expect a whole lot of truthful answers lol. So with that said the idea is a good one to actually gauge the amount of illegals in this country but at the same time its moot because its not like illegals will admit to being illegal.

I saw on the news this AM...........I believe it was on CNN. The opposition shown was a black female rep from CA. (real shocker, huh?)

This is pretty outrageous in my book. The govt is going to spend a ton on collecting facts, but let's not have too many or all the facts on who all makes the USA their home.

Re: Don't ask - don't tell?

Hasn't the census been co-opted by the White house?

Re: Don't ask - don't tell?

I think so,but not 100% sure. I'm also curious to see if ACORN worms their way back in the census effort....it sure didn't take them long to get back in the taxpayers pocketbook, did it?

Illegals wont be reigned in by any party. Corruption and greed run to deep.

Re: Don't ask - don't tell?

Humm, I don't see the problem. In fact, I don't see any lefties crying foul. At all. Any source to go with this?
