Sharpton Keen on Extending Social Security, Medicare and Food Stamps - to Illegal Aliens | NewsBusters.org

Sharpton Keen on Extending Social Security, Medicare and Food Stamps - to Illegal Aliens | NewsBusters.org: You'd think he wouldn't have such persistent trouble with the "illegal" part of that.

Bad enough, as far as "the Rev" Al Sharpton is concerned, that Republicans want to rein in entitlement spending before America morphs into Greece and brings down much the world with it. (video clip after page break)

Here's Sharpton on his MSNBC "PoliticsNation" show Friday night, talking with Florida Democratic Party chair Rod Smith and "HuffPost Live" host Alicia Menendez about President Obama's end-run around Congress on the DREAM Act --

SHARPTON: Now Alicia, while the president is moving in this that all of us agree is politically wise but is also something he has a core belief in and has always talked about, congressional Republicans are pounding the president's immigration, uh, bi-, decision and they're coming with legislation, for example, yesterday they pushed two bills, one that had 11 co-sponsors and it would require the Department of Homeland Security (Sharpton quotes from story in The Hill) '(to) make sure illegal immigrants don't receive Medicare, Social Security or food stamps.'
