So you went on the White House’s website and you signed a petition to deport Justin Bieber back north to Canada. And you were not alone. Over 270,000 people signed the petition to deport the Biebs.

According to the White House’s own rules, any petition that gathers over 100,000 signatures will receive a response from the administration. Well the White House is responding, and sorry to disappoint you folks, but Justin Bieber is staying put.

On Friday, the following statement was issued.

Thanks for your petition and your participation in We the People.
Sorry to disappoint, but we won’t be commenting on this one.
The We the People terms of participation state that, “to avoid the appearance of improper influence, the White House may decline to address certain procurement, law enforcement, adjudicatory, or similar matters properly within the jurisdiction of federal departments or agencies, federal courts, or state and local government in its response to a petition.”

So we’ll leave it to others to comment on Mr. Bieber’s case, but we’re glad you care about immigration issues. Because our current system is broken. Too many employers game the system by hiring undocumented workers, and 11 million people are living in the shadows.

That status quo isn’t good for our economy or our country. We need common-sense immigration reform to make sure everyone plays by the same set of rules.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
