Exclusive: Rep. Wilson kept illegal immigrant in US

[Hepburn]

‘You lie’ Wilson shows two faces on illegal immigration

...

Two months before he heckled Obama, he introduced legislation to keep Sainey Fatty, an illegal immigrant from Gambia, in the country. Fatty came to the U.S. for school in the early ’90s and lived here for seven years while under a deportation order, according to his friend Bill Cook’s blog.

In his bill, Wilson asks Congress to forgive Fatty’s immigration woes, drop the deportation order against Fatty and allow him to remain in the country legally.

Wilson’s communications director Ryan Murphy told Raw Story in an e-mail that “Congressman Wilson does not support illegal immigrants getting access to a government taxpayer funded health insurance program.” He did not respond to questions about what motivated Wilson to keep Fatty in the country or whether Wilson supports Fatty’s ability to receive medical care in the U.S.

Officials with Immigrations and Customs Enforcement told Raw Story they aren’t allowed to comment on the details of requests for asylum, although Fatty’s friend Cook says in his blog that Fatty is allegedly a Christian convert who abandoned his Muslim roots. Cook did not respond to Raw Story’s request for comments, and restricted the public’s ability to view his blog after Raw Story left a voice-mail message at his office. Government workers familiar with the process in which members of Congress fight deportation orders say many undocumented people file asylum claims stating they would face violence if they return to their native countries after converting to Christianity.

So, let me understand this, Rep. Wilson: Illegal CHRISTIAN aliens are OK in your book, right? What about an illegal MUSLIM alien who faced violence in his/her native country? Would you file a bill for this person? Allow him/her and the family to carry health insurance?

Oh, and please do respond as to any health insurance coverage for the illegal immigrant who is at the basis of your bill. We are awaiting your reply.

BTW: Can we all say: H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E?

2. Boy, is that the truth.

And...I am betting his answer to health insurance for an illegal immigrant would be, "Yes...but ONLY if a Christian."

3. Maybe this is what makes him an immigration attorney. He's

an attorney and he helped an immigrant.
