Chertoff Retreats
Immigration Enforcement "Designed to Fail"

"We're not abandoning the no-match rule. We're modifying it to be consistent with the district court's order." (This will take three months)
Lou Dobbs Tonight -- CNN -- November 26
Wian: DHS says it is considering multiple options to get the no- match rule up and running including challenging the judge's order, but for now it plans to issue the revised rule by March of next year -- Lou.
Dobbs: Why in the world is it going to take that long to amend the order?
Wian: DHS is not saying beyond the statement that we reported there in the piece. It is technical issues that -- and minor issues, according to the DHS that the judge has a problem with in this case, but they don't say why it is going to take four months to get it fixed -- over four months, basically giving employers of illegal aliens in this country a free pass for another four months -- Lou.
Dobbs: You know and the illegal employers in this country have had a free pass for long enough. This administration continues to look like a bunch of just weak-kneed, frankly weak-kneed cowards when it comes to enforcing the law against corporate America. It's disgusting to me that they would put off this encounter.
