Quietly slipping through the legislative process, at least until lately, is the latest incarnation of the Immigration Reform Bill, called Immigration Legislation S-9. This is still nothing but an amnesty plan and a give away of America. This plan cheapens citizen ship by giving it to virtually anyone who can get to U.S. Soil and seek it.
Senate Minority Leader John Boehner has called this bill a "piece of shit" and while the words are strong, they re descriptive. This more than can be said of the full name of S-9 as sponsored by Senator Harry Reid. It is called the "Stronger Economy, Stronger Borders Act of 2009.
For starters, this bill reduces the US/Mexico border fence from 800 miles to 200 miles. It allows for chain immigration as well, where not only can an illegal get amnesty and citizenship, but he can also import his extended family as well.
Alien gang members which are estimated to be 30,000 minimum, qualify for amnesty simply by declaring they "don't to be in a gang any longer". Aliens will pay no back taxes but will qualify for the "earned income tax credit" by way of a check from the Government at taxpayer expense.
Tax payers will foot the bill for lawyers to represent illegal aliens and instate college tuition will be given to them as well. Illegals will be given legal status just 24 hours after filing, even though a background check will undoubtedly take much longer. "Temporary " visas will be granted indefinitely.
At a time when the economy is in the worst recession in many years and the competition for a dwindling number of jobs is fierce, the resentment of Americans having to compete for them with illegals is growing. What jobs are out there have had their wages depressed by this cheap labor source as well.
At 10.2% the jobless rate is higher now than it has been in more than a quarter of a century and at 17.5% the rate of people who are working below their capacity is setting another record. A Russian comedian named Yakov Smirnoff use to say at ever revelation about America "What a country!"
Native American citizens are starting to shake their heads and say the same thing.

I think this amnesty bill has potential to do more damage to our country than health care and cap N trade combined, and that’s saying a lot!
Might shed some light on the goals of our own left wing.
Let me see if I understand this...
IF YOU CROSS THE NORTH KOREAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET 12 YEARS HARD LABOR......
IF YOU GO INTO CHINA ILLEGALLY, YOUR CONSIDERED A SPY AND GET HARD PRISON TIME.....
IF YOU GO INTO GERMANY ILLEGALLY, YOU GET A HEFTY FINE, WORK IT OFF OR PAY IT OFF, THEN GET DEPORTED........
IF YOU GO INTO ENGLAND ILLEGALLY, YOU ARE IMMEDIATELY JAILED AND DEPORTED........
IF YOU CROSS THE IRANIAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU ARE DETAINED INDEFINITELY....
BUT, IF YOU CROSS THE U.S. BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET:
1. A DRIVERS LICENSE
2. A SOCIAL SECURITY CARD
3. WELFARE
4. FOOD STAMPS AND
5. FREE HEALTH CARE?
I guess I still don’t understand...maybe we need to VOTE OUR LAWMAKERS OUT!
“I think this amnesty bill has potential to do more damage to our country than health care and cap N trade combined, and that’s saying a lot!”
Agreed, boxlunch. It will insure tens of millions of socialist 3rd world mentality welfare voters and change this country beyond repair. Let’s not forget, in the figure of 12 to 20 million illegal aliens, anchor babies (citizens who vote) are not counted. We’re talking of importing a majority voting bloc who can then bring in all their family members.
“Its time Americans considered some of the revelations coming out of Great Britain concerning the left wing and why they sought to flood their country with foreigners.

I’d bet there isn’t 1 American in 50 who has a clue how lost Britain is because of ‘immigration’, much less how many illegal aliens we have in this country. I do not recall ever seeing a broadcast news story of some of the horrors going on in Britain with their ‘aliens’.
These anti-Constitutionalists are becoming more and more emboldened with every small success they achieve.
Amnesty for illegals is the next step in securing the ballot box for the DhimmiRats for the future.
With a solidly entrenched entitlement society, dependent on the feds for rent, food, healthcare, and all the other necessities of life, adding in more illegals will only deepen the pool of people falsely convinced of their own victimization. And, THAT will spell the end of America in the modern world.
Can't be repeated enough!
The metrosexual wussies are taking over the world!

You didn't mention one very important other thing they get: American JOBS!
Over 1,200 janitors fired in MN immigration audit
Snips: Roughly 1,250 Twin Cities janitors with suspect employment documents were fired from their jobs in October as their company carried out an audit prompted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, an immigration attorney said Monday.
The janitors worked for ABM Industries Inc., a New-York based company that provides janitorial services nationwide.
In the Twin Cities audit, Keller said, the vast majority of the 1,250 fired workers turned out to be undocumented. Keller said to his knowledge, no one was arrested or deported.
Ask who benefits other than the Dem party in this? Is this the Quid-pro-qou for supporting Obamacare?
Think.......
WTF??? Boehner is the House Minority leader. Doesn't anyone proofread their stories anymore?
Why did Britains Left do it? Votes? Their cult of Multiculturalism? Wanting to balkanize the country (divide and conquer)?
And, there are still some on this forum that think that Lieberman has the interests of the United States at heart....
Its time Americans considered some of the revelations coming out of Great Britain concerning the left wing and why they sought to flood their country with foreigners.
Might shed some light on the goals of our own left wing.

Alinsky’s rules for radicals - overwhelm the system..
Ah, but we’re toein’ the line. We’re here and we’re FIGHTIN’ mad.
Sorry about the lengthy link...
So all of the above. And moreover to destroy what it means to be a Briton and erase her as a distinct culture.
The Left is a cancer! They want so badly to eradicate Western civilization out of their own selfish desires and ideology of self-hatred.
