Illegals Will be Counted in the U.S. Census

California could get nine House seats it doesn’t constitutionally rate because illegal aliens will be counted in 2010, concluded an opinion piece in The Wall Street Journal.

The forthcoming census, which determines the apportionment of House members and Electoral College votes for each state, will be counting all persons physically present in the country -- without regard to the legality of their status.

Set for big gains thanks to illegal populations is not only California but Florida, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, New York and Texas, according to the Census Bureau’s 2007 American Community Survey data.

*snip*

Dr. Elizabeth Grieco, chief of the Census Bureau’s Immigration Statistics Staff, told the WSJ that the 2010 census short form does not ask about citizenship because “Congress has not asked us to do that.”

Nah, no agenda there.  Nothing to see here...move along.

This will cause a shift in house seats that will greatly favor the Dims.  Couple this with ACORN's illegal activities and the usual DimRat election cheating and they may hold onto to their majority in the house.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Okay then, how about we have ICE step up their operations then to minimize the number of illegals in the US by the time of the census.

Not gonna happen under 0Bama and Nappylitano.  In fact, they are targeting businesses instead of the illegals now. Even Sheriff Joe is being forced to release captured illegals. Detroit Examiner

I was born in Kansas. We used to have at least 8 kids per family until the Gubmint started stealing too much from us. Now it's impossible to have that many kids and be able to afford it unless you're on the welfare roles! Myself, I could only afford 2!
I'm the guy your mother warned you about!
