When Reid's bill passes, said Wong, "the young people of the DREAM Act movement will go on to accomplish and do great things. ... You will go on to become lawyers, teachers, doctors and members of the U.S. Congress to replace those old white men ... ."

If the DREAM Act passes, Wong is right about whose time has come and gone.

Imagine a white professor saying this about those of Asian or Mexican ethnicity.

America: where ‘guest workers’ are a higher class of citizen than ‘mere peon*’.

Why are we surprised? Obama said he was going to fundamentally change this country.

No, it is not ours anymore and we have our government to thank. Our laws and our public policy favor and benefit foreigners and non-citizens to the detriment of American citizens. We are at the bottom of the government’s list of priorities, except when it comes to donating what we have earned to the big pile of tax revenue that the government turns around and gives to those who haven’t earned it. OUR GOVERNMENT NO LONGER SERVES OUR BEST INTERESTS. WE ARE NO LONGER REPRESENTED.

When a nation becomes a safety valve for the world’s problems, as America has become, one can only let off steam, as Americans do.

.
Someone should investigate how we got to this point in our immigration policy. You can bet that the insiduous hand of the UN plays a significant role in this destruction of the West.

Why is it that there is only migration from 3rd world nations to the West and why is it that only the West has to lose its identity and accept that of its immigrants?

There should be no work visas granted to any foreigner while unemployment is so high.

Is This Our America Anymore?

Of course not.
We let in our sworn enemies, be they Muslims or Hispanics swearing
vengence on the Yankees.

As Reagan said (IIRC) a country without a border is not a country.

Americans are fed up. No surprise! Congress approval rating at 13%

Congress’s approval rating has dipped so low, it seems like the only people in the country who approve of the beleaguered pols are their moms, according to a new poll.

A mere 13 percent of Americans approve of the way Congress is handling its responsibilities, a historic low fueled by a deep drop of support among Democrats.

The Gallup poll of 1,019 people — taken between Friday and Sunday as President Obama and Congress hammered out a deal on the Bush tax cuts — found an overwhelming 83 percent of respondents disapproved of the way Congress was going about its business. Four percent had no opinion.
The previous lowest approval rating was 14 percent in July 2008, when the United States was dealing with a crashing economy and record-high gas prices.

The most significant drop was among disappointed Democrats, whose approval ratings plunged from 29 percent in November to 16 percent now.

The November survey was taken after the midterm elections, when the GOP won control of the House, leading pollsters to theorize that the drop in Democrats’ support stems from frustration over the deal to extend Bush tax cuts for the wealthy.

Just think what will happen if they pass the Dream Act.

Buchanan again raising many valid points and displaying a better understanding of economics than the tenured-government paid-university economists who have no clue of what is going on.

Of course, I expect this thread to be full of Liberal, Globalist, Open Borders, Free Trade Communist “Buchanan s—ks” posts. However, Buchanan has been right on the economics all along...and the supporters of tenured-government paid economists cannot challenge Buchanan anymore

My head just wants to explode

If anyone wants to know why they can’t get a job, show them this.

On top of this, the exporting of jobs offshore shrunk the total jobs available. Thank you nafta, walmart and the clintons

This is why we’re screwed. This is why English-speaking men can’t locate work. As pro business as I am I’m not willing to sell fellow Americans out. I’ve heard all the arguments as to why this is happening too. But when there’s a booming Hispanic grocery store in EVERY small town then you just have to conclude that our businesses would rather hire a work-for-10 hour/pay for 6-hour illegal. We have chosen to succumb to this. How disgusting it is.

America is dead. Humans prefer slavery to freedom, even when the slave master (government) blatantly lies and defrauds them daily.

The melting pot is a myth. It is insane to believe that the immigrants, illegal or otherwise are just going to give up the conditioning they received in their homeland.

I knew a guy that came from Yugoslavia by way of Germany. He’s a US citizen now. Total Leftist. Believes in socialized medicine, progressive income taxes, German-style education.

He votes.

We would be better off had he stayed in Germany.
