Why the Amnesty Lobby is Freaking Out
Townhall ^ | Apr 08, 2014 | Conn Carroll

Posted on 04/08/2014 8:22:19 AM PDT by george76

The Congressional Hispanic Caucus is done being patient. There was a time when an Oval Office meeting with President Obama could buy their silence. But no longer.

On Friday April 4, the CHC sent a six-page letter to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson demanding that Obama use "all legal means available" to "suspend, delay, or dispense with the deportations of immigrants who would qualify for legal status and protection under S. 744."

At no point does the letter bother to call for new legislation or the passage of S.744. Instead, the CHC just demands that Obama enforce current law as if he had already signed S.744.

...

amnesty advocates are freaking out now. They know that if Democrats lose the Senate this November, they'll be cut out of the debate entirely.

This country was not founded by immigrants. It was founded by colonists and pioneers.

1. Arrest the those employing illegal immigrants.
2. Deport illegal immigrants.
3. Build the fence. Shovel ready work for many Americans.

I think this is just a media narrative to juice up the campaign & maybe even a little support for the Dems.

That’s what the Jeb Bush crap is about.

...and the fat check stapled to it, or the lucrative job offer like Mike Morrel from the CIA got with Hillary's friends at Beacon Global Strategies. A million a year ain't bad for a simple cover up and the media adoration that comes with it.

Jeb Bush did us a favor with his incoherent speech yesterday. Now it’s on the record how big an elitist fool he is. I hope him and that back stabbing traitor Christie both get in. It would be good to have the squishy RINO vote get split. Twice in a row the conservative votes get divided so we get stuck with useful idiots like McCain

Before 1965 immigration to a mostly empty usa CAME FROM eUROPE.

After the democrats’ 1965 immigration act immigration has come from latin America, Asia, africa , the 3rd world. that is ethnic cleansing that is your legal immigration you support. the democrats use these non-whites in a game of racial marxism to set up the races against each other
and grow socialism. most hispanice
s, asians etc. vote democrat and so for socialism . so you are for socialism and ending freedom and opportunity. this is what democrats planned to destroy capitalism , freedom and America. and you are for that.

you all bashing me for saying we don’t need more immigrants are for 1 million dworld legal immigrants flooding our country . what other people is for that? no one with any logic. just the economic reasons are enough to not want more people flooding a country much less the social and political changes .

what about that there are limited resources in a country do you not understand? there is limited amount of oil etc in the USA . there are 330 million people already here. who would want more competitors to come take the resources , jobs , etc . are you insane or a socialist? do u have an once of brain cells or any sense of self preservation? only a socialist would want more immigrants . ok lets let 2 billion more in since legal immigrants are so good. s

no one in their right mind would want the 1 milli0n legal immigrants to keep coming here every year to the USA.

you are for more immigrants as you say they are so good. you approve of the destruction of the greatest country there ever was

Immigrants being “bad” shouldnt b the point.

We let a million people into the country per year, legally. Another 700,000 come in on green cards and student visas. Our country cant survive that on top of illegal immigration for much longer. There will be a serious crisis at some point if it continues, which it will.

STOP ALL IMMIGRATION NOW!

you are for letting in 1 milion 3rd world immigrants per year into the USA which is the law now

go ahead and justify to Americans why we need to let in a million 3rd world immigrants per year into the USA when we have the lowest workforce participation ever in the USA and exploding welfare, exploding debt in this country . go ahead and make your case for why we need to let in these 1 million immigrants per year

you are the democr4at troll and brainwashed socialist puppet of the media

Troll or no, what the MaybeTroll says is absolutely true.

The U.S, had no need of immigration in 1965. No one even used that as a reason for the 65 act. They would have been laughed out of the room.

The act was justified by the usual sobbing liberal shibboleths: evil American racists had broken up families by preventing wives and children from joining their hard toiling immigrant Dads, there were only a few, and it “would not change the ethnic makeup” - Kennedy’s words.

Family reunification would be the primary consideration from then on.

A few thousand at most was the reassuring cooing that they gave.

Actually it became the 80 million mentioned.

Would anyone have agreed to that in 1965 if the truth were told?

No. Seven years later we were being told that we were overpopulated and we needed to have only “replacement” children. That was the Rockefeller Commission. It was used as a justification for Roe v. Wade.

So we have the Left telling us it’s OK to let in massive numbers of people from places unrelated to the settlers of America at the same time they were screaming that there were too many Americans.

Think maybe the plan was to drown the Americans in a sea of foreign faces? People from thugocracies who had no history of individual liberty and responsibility?

The result is Barack Obama, a giant government bent on redistributing every iota of earned wealth to people it considers deserving (um, “non-whites”), the abolition of Christian values ( white people stuff again)....we could go on and on.

Demography is destiny. Everything I’ve said here you can find on ethnic nationalist sites...where they CROW about it. They know it was a radical remaking of the US and they are triumphant about that!

Hey, look at us...we took over gringo land and didn’t fire a shot!

So troll or not, what DM says is true. Unlimited legal immigration is what destroyed America...and it was the basis of mass illegal immigration too.The fish needed a sea to swim in, and that was those already here.

80 million? Coming to a country already settled, already the most powerful and successful country on Earth? What for? What did they do to deserve that?

Other than the refugee South Vietnamese, absolutely nothing.

But they know one thing. We had wealth...and they wanted it. And if they can get it by voting for the Looter in Chief....they will.

And did.
