Yep. I wonder when millions of those little guys are going to get up off their backs?
Tyranny on the horizon. Keep your powder dry.
It’s always a good day to BLOAT.
Yes. I plan to BLOAT Saturday morning [ BLOAS?! ;o) ]
You can never have too much ammo. Unless it cracks your slab.
The job of every member of Congress is to represent the wishes of the people of his state or district. Period. It is not to impose a will, or coerce an opinion, it is to do what the people want.And the people don't want this immigration bill.
Not by a damn sight.
And the president and Congress who do not honor that wish have don't need a lesson just in immigration policy, they need a lesson in American democracy.
And they are about to get it.
Ping!
LOL! I think I can get a bit more in before that happens.
As bad as the GOP has been - the Dems will be FAR worse.

Thanks potlatch!
yw!
ew...snakes on #49!
Completely!
My sentiments exactly. I'm bringing my pitchfork. I can't wait to get in my two Senators faces and give them a tongue lashing they'll never forget. They need to see the fire in my/our eyes and have them feel the fear from betrayed citizens!!!
Flaw No. 1: Sen. Sessions pointed to perhaps the biggest flaw by noting that the “ ‘enforcement trigger’ fails to require the U.S. VISIT system – the biometric border check-in/check-out system established by Congress in 1996, but never implemented – to be fully functioning before new worker or amnesty programs begin. Without the system in place, the U.S. has no method of ensuring that workers and their families do not overstay their visas.”
Flaw No. 2: While most Americans tell pollsters they want less immigration, this bill dramatically increases overall immigration. It TRIPLES chain migration through the year 2016 – all the while sanctioning a mass importation of low-skill foreign workers and, by extension, a mass importation of poverty into this country.
Flaw No. 3: Illegal aliens get “legal status before enforcement” begins;
Flaw No. 4: The “triggers” require “no more agents, beds, or fencing than current law” mandates;
Flaw No. 5: The completion of background checks, including checks against criminal and terrorist databases, is “not required for” the granting of amnesty (in this bill, it is referred to as “probationary status”);
Flaw No. 6: Criminals of all kinds – including gang members, some child molesters, and absconders (i.e., “aliens who have already had their day in court [and who are now] subject to…removal” [covering “more than 636,000 fugitives”]) are eligible for the bill’s mass amnesty;
Flaw No. 7: “Illegal aliens with terrorism connections are not barred from getting amnesty. An illegal alien seeking most immigration benefits must merely show ‘good moral character.’”
Flaw No. 8: Illegal aliens granted amnesty or guestworkers imported via the new “Y” “temporary worker” program can claim the Earned Income Tax Credit, which “will cost taxpayers billions in just 10 years”;
Flaw No. 9: “Affidavits from friends” are acceptable as evidence of satisfying requirements for amnesty, thus “invit[ing] fraud and more illegal immigration”;
Flaw No. 10: “In-state tuition and other higher education benefits…will be made available to current illegal aliens that are granted [amnesty], even if the same instate tuition rates are not offered to all U.S. citizens,” a violation of current Federal law, which “mandates that educational institutions give citizens the same postsecondary education benefits they offer to illegal aliens”;
Flaw No. 11: New visas are created for individuals who are prone to overstaying their period of authorized admission – namely, the new “parent” visa, which allows parents of citizens, and the spouses and children of new temporary workers, to visit a worker in the United States. Not only is this term “a misnomer, but also an invitation for high rates of visa overstays” because it “specifically allows the spouse and children of new temporary workers who intend to abandon their residence in a foreign country, to qualify to come to the U.S. to ‘visit.’” To obtain the visa, one must only post a $1,000 bond, “which will be forfeited when, not if, family members of new temporary workers decide to overstay their 30 day visit. Workers should travel to their home countries to visit their families, not the other way around”;
Flaw No. 12: To be granted amnesty, illegal aliens need not pay back income taxes;
Flaw No. 13: Social Security credits for work done while in the United States illegally will be granted to “[a]liens who came to the U.S. on legal visas, but overstayed their visas and have been working in the U.S. for years, as well as illegal aliens who apply for Z visa status but do not qualify”; and
Flaw No. 14: “The criminal fines an illegal alien is required to pay to receive amnesty are less than the bill’s criminal fines for paperwork violations committed by U.S. citizens, and can be paid by installment,” which means that “the fine for illegally entering, using false documents to work, [is] one-tenth the fine for a paperwork violation committed by a government official.”
Agreed.
In the meantime we can start marching on their offices in their home states. Additionally, they can be confronted any time they are out in public. This is no time for courtesy or PC for these scofflaws. "In your face" confrontation is needed so it puts brown spots in their shorts!!!
| Thanks to Bill... Subject: Medicare Part D.................this will curl your hair! Five million of our older Americans have not yet signed up for their Medicare, Part D, drug plan------they are old and confused... ...and we are NOT going to grant them an extension. However, at least twenty million illegal aliens are in our country and we are going to allow them to stay, protest, procreate, receive support monies, free medical care and free lunches, attend our schools, avoid paying income taxes, cause our teachers take 300 hours of ESL(English as a Second Language) training at our expense, etc. WE MUST REALLY DISLIKE OUR OLD PEOPLE...... ...OR WE MUST REALLY LOVE OUR TACOS!!! If this ticks you off, call your Representatives, then pass this on!!!! And don't forget to pay your taxes...... ...Twenty million illegal aliens are depending on you!!!!
Just say NO to Illegal Alien Amnesty!!!
Keep calling!! It’s NOT OVER!!
