Immigration reform? (Obama's Amnesty Agenda)
http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2009/04/09/ldt.obama.immigration.cnn ^ | April 9, '09 | Lou Dobbs

The Obama administration's push for amnesty for illegal aliens could not come at a worse time for Americans who are struggling to survive this recession. The unemployment rate in this country has soared to the highest level in a quarter century. But despite that, Obama seems determined to flood the U.S. job market with even more cheap labor.

Who cares if more Americans are unemployed and the few jobs available go to cheap labor that suppresses the wages of all workers? Who cares if citizens are paying ever-increasing taxes for prison incarceration, bankrupt public school districts, insolvent hospitals, the ravages of the drug cartel and social welfare costs? Who cares about the national security threat of open borders in an age of international terrorism? Why shouldn't we do even more to attract and increase the Third World invasion of America? Look at all those VOTES just falling into our laps!

This is about ensconcing the “Race Card” upon the pantheon of American politics. It is the Zimbabweification of America, take a look at his advisors. On one side is Rahm who I doubt wants this and on the other side is the Mau Mau faction where race is everything and whites are the devil. I assume the M&M faction has won this battle and the Obama crew will get to play Mugabe.

Exactly...this “amnesty” is about millions of new voters for the Democrat Party. We will have a situation where the non-productive, poor will outvote the productive “rich”.

Welcome to redistributive democracy. Clearly, this is coming. Get used to it. Unless the Republicans in the Senate and one or two Democrats have the gonads to filibuster.

We will see.

Watch for Obama and his stooges to pass some sort of legislation that would make his granny legal and also Presidents that were born in Kenya legal. That way when we finally find out he is not a citizen of the US, he will be covered under the new law. (this is almost satire, but not quite)

Obama is just ridiculous! This is probably so his dear Auntie (the illegal immigrant here - along with who knows how many more of his Kenyan relatives hiding out) can stay.

If he is insistant on doing this, at least set some conditions. Like, first of all, they must learn to speak English. If not, they get sent back. Second, they must not turn to welfare. If they have no visible means of support, they get sent back. Those are just starters.

To make it worse, I got an email from TX Sen. Cornyn yesterday, trumpeting his support of “comprehensive immigration reform.” As usual, I sent him the obligatory email. It defies all logic that the GOP supporters of this and other obaminations cannot or will not see that they are fast becoming the Whigs.
BTW, the HUFFPO is looking for “citizen reporters” to register with them and give good, honest reporting on this strange phenom known as “Tea Parties”. As many of us possible should sign up and give them honest reports, really. The other side has been shouting, whining and demonstrating for 40 years while our side worked to (effectively) pay them for doing it. Now we have to turn public opinion, because everything’s a numbers deal. If this country can't get turned around by popular opinion and the ballot box to the right direction, one side or the other ends up on the wrong end of a barrel.
Cheers.

Nope. No Zimbabweification here. Whitey ain’t going quietly into the American night. It will be more like Rwanda.

Good point. If we look back at the Democratic primary everybody from Bill Clinton to Barack Obama played the race card. Yes, Obama. Blacks are very adept at playing the race card because they imply that those who don’t support them are racists. This is a clever play upom white guilt.

Excellent point. Obama and his quasi-socialist supporters only do two things well: Spend and redistribute the wealth of the productive. They are incapable of CREATING wealth. In fact, they do everything they can to kill the freedom and incentive to do so.

Terrific post! At least Mussolini made the trains run on time. Obama can’t even claim that much unless we consider bankrupting America as a great achievement!

Thanks for that reference. I wondered whatever happened to that shill for the open borders crowd. By the way, I learned all about him and his shameless attempt to railroad Ramos and Compean by clearly denying those border agents due process in their trial from the excellent series Lou Dobbs had on that issue.

Good satire must always contain at its core an undeniable element of truth - which it satirizes - and yours is good satire. It’s a propos to nothing, but why don’t we be honest and refer to Obama as the first mulatto-American president? After all, it’s discriminatory not to give credit or blame to his whiteness as well as his blackness! But I guess that would confuse and anger the racial and ethnocentric factions.

Good idea, but you are right. It would be great, though, to watch the media blow up. LOL

Call it the “Hate Card” a page out of about any African or Nazi/Commie playbook. The Shamnesty debate is all about ensconsing the “Race Card” around the “devil’s” necks. I have no doubt that one of the left’s turds will even refer to it as a necklacing, in deference to Winnie Mandela and her favorite form of killing.

Right you are. I think it was Bay Buchanan who wrote a good article explaining that the new McCarthyism is now from the Left. Instead of slandering people by calling them “communists,” they accuse those of us who want the law enforced by securing our borders as being “racists,” “xenophobes,” “nativists,” and much worse. As usual, when you can’t defend a position rationally you can always resort to ad hominem attacks and name-calling.

I agree 100%. Nothing more reactionary and violent than the enviromental materialists of the stuck in the mud left, fighting battles from 1950.
