Demonstrators Swarm Around Rove's Home
Washington Post ^ | March 29, 2004 | Steven Ginsberg

Posted on 03/29/2004 9:17:23 PM PST by seastay

The protest was organized by National People's Action, a coalition of neighborhood advocacy groups based in Chicago.

Leaders said they want Bush to advocate for the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act, a bill that would permit immigrants who have lived in the United States for at least five years to apply for legal resident status once they graduate from high school. The measure would eliminate provisions of current federal law that discourage states from providing in-state tuition to undocumented student immigrants.

Immigrant activists say that 50,000 to 65,000 undocumented students graduate from U.S. high school each year and that many students can afford college only at the reduced, in-state rates given to legal residents.

I don't care much for Karl Rove at times, but a man's home is his castle and should be treated as such.

The only good thing about left wing activism is that it keeps young people off the streets. Oops, come to think of it, there's nothing good about left wing activism.

I wonder if this treatment by our criminal invader lobby will change the boy wonder's opinion of giving them amnesty?

I'm glad this made the post, but watch it be buried in the rest of the liberal media.

Which one? John Kerry and his wife have at least 5 multimillion dollar homes.

I wonder how these a-holes would like a bunch of people clamboring all over their homes and pounding on the widows.

Nope. Rove will just get better security at tax payer expense, while leaving the rest of middle class America to deal with it.

"Several hundred people stormed the small yard ...pounding on his windows, shoving signs at others..."

Well that looks like "trespass" and "Assault with a deadly weapon" and attempted "breaking & entering"

Shame that didn't occur in a freer state like Texas - he could have given them what they needed - a 12-gauge mouthful!

Tell that to the hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens that are already ignoring our laws, and trespassing all over Texas.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
And here Rove thought this would only happen to California.
I hope they keep this up for a good long time.

Ironically the DREAM ACT IS SUPPORTED BY JOHN KERRY.

IT IS A TRUE AMNESTY PROGRAM JOHN KERRY OPENLY SUPPORTS.

The purpose of the program is to reinstitute the anchor babies who keep families here.

IOW no longer can you deport the whole family and tell any children born here to come back when 18. Also no longer would you have to hide for 10 years for the standard federal rolling amnesty.

BTW john kerry supports a program which allows the legalization of people who have been in the usa for a number of years. This is easy since the program has existed SINCE THE 1960'S! what a doufus.

They called in the D.C. police and the Secret Service. Considering the makeup of the group a couple of uniformed INS agents could have cleared that street in a couple seconds.
