Back-Door Amnesty Backfires: Obama’s Approval Hits New Low of 44% With Hispanics

In the same week that Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano announced that her department was going to review the cases of 300,000 illegal aliens in deportation proceedings and allow “low priority” cases to stay in the country and receive work permits—a move House Judiciary Chairman Lamar Smith called a “back door amnesty”—President Barack Obama’s approval dropped to an all-time low of 44 percent among Hispanics, according to Gallup polling data released today.

That is a drop of 41 points from the spring of 2009, when Obama’s approval among Hispanic Americans peaked at 85 percent (in the weeks that ended April 26, 2009 and May 17, 2009).

Obama’s approval among Hispanics dropped 5 points last week alone, falling from 49 percent in the week that ended Aug. 14 to its new low of 44 percent in the week that ended Aug. 21.

On the weekends I often stop in and eat my favorite food, authentic Mexican food at a real Mecican restaurant a couple of towns over from me. All the employee's are Mexican quite naturally, many of whom are American born, some are not, have green cards or naturalized.

Brandon, my the head waiter and friend who is about 28 y.o. was pretty peeved at Obama for what he is doing. His response was 'WTF is he doing'. He went on to say, 'damn, ain't we got enough wetbacks over here already?'. He said several others there feel similarly. No illegals work at this restaurant even though they are always coming around looking for work he says. He believes it should be done the right way too.

” Rick Perry should take note.”

Rick Perry should GET LOST!

Perry is still smoking those funny smelling cigarettes if he believes pandering to the illegal aliens will get him elected. The La Raza and the other illegal alien front groups no more represent the Hispanic population than does the Republican Party represent the Conservative American population.

La Raza and the Republican RINO's have much in common, foremost that they both want unfettered cheap exploitable illegal alien labor.
