What’s this about living in the shadows? Colorado will begin issuing driver’s licenses and other state IDs to illegal immigrants Friday. Bloomberg News reports:
Colorado Overwhelmed by Immigrant License Requests http://t.co/AmcN0S70YP via @BloombergNews
— HAMZA SADRIJA (@HSADRIJA) July 31, 2014
Undocumented immigrants in Colorado may face waits of a year or more to obtain drivers licenses under a program starting tomorrow, as thousands seeking to apply overwhelm an online scheduling system and available staff.
When the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles started accepting appointments from foreign nationals online July 1, it received as many as 107,500 page views an hour, crashing the system for several days. The DMV expects to process 9,551 applicants through September.
Laura Ingraham’s followers aren’t fans of the idea.

@IngrahamAngle #BorderCrisis So every illegal who gets an ID will go out buy auto insurance, be a safe driver, and respect the law. HaHa

@IngrahamAngle Along with the DLs, they will register to vote. This is the reason for the motor voter law – to register illegal Democrats.

@IngrahamAngle You know, it's frigging easier for an illegal to get a driver's license than it is for my son to get a permit!

@IngrahamAngle The TSA should not accept any CO driver license as ID for boarding a plane. Illegals should be deported not allowed to stay.
