Pelosi:Passing Immigration Reform is More Important Than Democrats' Winning in November

Full Title:Passing Comprehensive Immigration Reform is More Important Than Democrats' Success at the Polls in November, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.

Passing comprehensive immigration reform is more important than Democrats' success at the polls in November, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday.

A number of Republicans and other conservative voices have accused Pelosi and the Democrats of using the immigration reform issue as a political crutch, suggesting the Democrats would rather keep the issue alive for campaign purposes than actually pass a bill.

But Pelosi on Thursday rejected that notion outright, and she didn't mince words.

"I believe, and I say this with all the sincerity I have, that it is more important to pass comprehensive immigration reform — to me and to my caucus — than to win the election in November," Pelosi said at a Washington gathering of the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

Minority Madam Nancy Pelosi (Dimwit-CA) has said that amnesty legislation would pass by June if it passes this year, -----vote-crazed Dems are desperate----the clock is ticking ---- 2014 looms and the votes arent there for the lock-stepping party loyalists.

FACTS ON FILE---The Senate Immigration "Reform" Bill
Protects corrupt Latino Public Officials from US laws and from prosecution.

Vote-crazed Dems' amnesty law absolves elected/appointed latinos holding US public office from prosecution for wrongdoing---for crimes like government fraud, graft, bribery, selling votes for cash....(the usual politician crimes).

There really is a Ntl Assoc of Latino Elected and Appt Officials organized for govt fraud.

Of course, because that will be the last time Democrats lose until the nation collapses in bankruptcy and ruin. The clueless Republicans will never win another election when all of Mexico is casting US ballots for freebies.

Thanks lbryce.

She's great. I love this chick. She would ask for the entire democrat party to commit actual, physical suicide for a $0.50 increase in the minimum wage, and declare it to be a bold stroke for a glorious future.

She puts the bat-shit in bat-shit-crazy, that one.

She keeps reemphasizing that she is a fruitcake. Seriously, she needs to be under psychiatric care, in some stately country home for the utterly nuts.

You guys only get HALF OF THE STORY.

What made 2006 so terrible for Republicans was President Bush and McCain pushing Amnesty so damn hard. It simply depressed and aready-depressed base.

So, for 2014, if the Dems want to really depress the Republican base - which is their ONLY HOPE to prevent a bloodbath, they have to get Amnesty through - THAT SIMPLE. And they are close, as there may be enough REPUBLICAN IDIOTS to help her along.

So, not only does the Republican Party end up joining the Soviet Communists in the Ash Heap of History, in a decade or so, if Amnesty passes, we also end up DESTROYING our chances to clean house this year.

This MUST BE STOPPED.

Well, Paul Ryan, lots of RINOs and the US Chamber of Commerce agree with her.

Read a report this A.M. of Hispanics not signing up for obamacare. I’ll leave my opinion, at that first sentence, for the time being. I think I know why Hispanics are not signing up, as does everyone else here knows also.

One theory floating around is that they are scared to sign up because they live with illegal friends or relatives and don't want to get them in trouble.

Another one is that the Spanish language website isn't working yet.

"Passing Immigration Reform is More Important Than Democrats' Winning in November"

Precisely because the Demmunists will never have to expend any energy or time to steal another election from that moment onward.

She's right.

Just like LBJ's "Great Society" programs ensuring the black vote for Dems in perpetuity, giving citizenship (and voting rights) to millions of Hispanics in 2014 will ensure that the Dems will win in 2016, and forever after that.

If this passes, then the US that we grew up in, will forever be dead.
