Pennsylvania Senatorial candidate Bob Casey is trying to unseat Rick Santorum and is issuing highly misleading statements as part of his attempt. One of those is the claim that he doesn't want to give Social Security benefits to illegal aliens. If you parse that statement in the legally-correct, Clintonian way it's true.

What he fails to note is that under the Senate amnesty bill (which he supports), many millions of current illegal aliens would be suddenly declared to be legal residents, and then they'd suddenly be eligible for up to $50 billion worth of "federal benefits such as the earned income and child tax credits, Medicaid, and Social Security" (WaPo on the CBO estimate).

UPDATE: In an earlier version I said "all" current illegal aliens would be legalized under the Senate bill. That actually wouldn't include "all", just the vast majority. And, it would also most likely include new illegal aliens who came here and obtained falsified documents "proving" that they were covered under the Senate amnesty.
