From Healthcare to Amnesty: An Indication of the Future
Captain Dave Funk ^ | March 29, 2010 | Doug Mitchell

A week ago Sunday there were actually two things going on. First, the demise of our healthcare system that 57% of Americans were against. Second, allegedly tens of thousands of immigrants rallied for amnesty in Washington. I've heard many people lately asking how the Democrats can have the audacity to act against the American people and still expect to stay in office.

Well. What would an additional 8 million and counting voters do? Obama has been making more and more mentions of his campaign promise to tackle immigration reform saying,

"I have always pledged to be your partner as we work to fix our broken immigration system, and that’s a commitment that I reaffirm today.”

Obama's pledge to fix a system that isn't actually broken is frightening. Immigration isn't broken, it's just not enforced. Of course Obama's changes don't mean to start enforcing, rather, offer amnesty to all illegal aliens and essentially securing the 2010 election year.

Much like healthcare, a majority of Americans are against amnesty and the type of reform team Obama would pursue but now they have proven they just don't care what the American people think. This battle is not over and 2010 is still going to be a long year for a lot of us. The President and Democratic leadership have spoken. Now it's time that we speak. Now it's time we make sure they can't pass anymore legislation that will destroy our Nation's economy and Constitution. If not it will turn into the passage of cap and trade and any other form of legislation that will steal our liberties.

They think we're going to give up after this enormous defeat and blatant disregard of the people. We're not. We're going to fight harder. We're going to fight longer. We're going to make sure every representative that voted for healthcare and pushes illegal amnesty will know for a fact they will not be around after November. We need to stick to our values and make sure amnesty doesn't pass. The audacity of their corruption will not cease unless we put it to a stop.

America as I knew is done and has been for a long time. I’m probably a lot older than you.

I'd gladly pay $1000 in tax money myself to put that as a bounty for every ILLEGAL found and deported. This would be Stimulus we could count on to get these inter-lopers the hell out of OUR COUNTRY. It will create jobs, relieve billions on the hospitals, welfare, food stamps, education system, and THAT return-on-investment is where we need to go.

Likewise, re-visitation of the "Anchor Babies" mis-interpretation of the Constitution would pay dividends even greater to tax-paying REAL American Citizens.

Probably can’t be a whole lot older and yes, the America that I knew is gone. Some things are better, many worse. We still have a chance to take things back at the ballot box but if amnesty passes there is no hope.

I really can’t post my thoughts to threads like these anymore. I would be banned, which would be the least of my problems.

the only thing I can say is, though I’m politically active (I am a FReeper afterall) I’ve never been to a Tea Party rally. I will now go to all TPs within reach and I’ll drag every person with a pulse with me.

WE ARE AT WAR PEOPLE. How is that for inflammatory rhetoric White House staffers?!!!!!!!!!!!!!
