Immigrant rally to target Scott Brown holiday party

Immigrant advocates are planning to rally outside a Christmas party hosted by U.S. Sen. Scott Brown to pressure the Massachusetts Republican to support the "DREAM Act."

Members and supporters of the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition are scheduled to gather Friday afternoon outside the Park Plaza Hotel in Boston where Brown is slated to host the party.

The federal DREAM Act would allow some children of illegal immigrants to qualify for permanent legal residency by graduating from college or a trade school or by joining the military.

Scott Brown needs to wake up to the reality that these people will not vote for him even if he does support the Nightmare for America Act. He will gain nothing by voting for it.

On the other hand, those who supported him before will not support him henceforth if he does vote for sellout legislation. He will lose his base by voting for it.

I would hope he would have learned that lesson after Juan McAmnesty didn't get their support in '08 no matter how much brown-nosing he did...

How dreamy is this? Illegal immigrants trying to bully a U.S. Senator into giving them stuff.

There isn't a barf bag big enough for this.

"Members and supporters of the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition "

Dumb enough to want voting rights so they can support Democrat liberal communists that will keep them in a permanent state of underclass slavery.

Man...even McCain & Graham are behavin right now...I hope the brats go pedal to the medal on this...love it! The public will see the full “TURNING ON THE HOST” element that Europe discovered TOO LATE! Stealth & Amnesty were pivotal partners now just like the tune “The Thrill is Gone” “The Stealth is Gone” eh? Correct me but it seems on this issue that now the ship can only take a rt-ward shift.

My understanding is that Brown says he’s a no on cloture. Why bother with this dumbass move if he’s not on the fence?

I do hope they will show up with Mexican flags and Aztlan posters to emphasize just how much they want to be treated like U.S. citizens.
