“Immigrants” – like my adopted sister – by definition, join the American family lawfully, already enjoy a path to citizenship and do not require amnesty.
The same cannot be said for illegal aliens. This applies even to Hispanics.
We have nothing to apologize for when it comes to “immigration” as we as a nation take in more than one million immigrants a year from all over the world. More than any nation on the planet. Another two million or so “guest workers” many of whom scream “you can’t make me leave, I have an American born child and I like it here” !
Illegal immigration is slowing and illegals are leaving the U.S. because of increased enforcement, and the loss of job opportunities – exactly as those of us who fight that crime said would happen with the concept of “attrition through enforcement“.
We are proving that local enforcement works as a deterrent to illegal immigration – and the illegal alien lobby is howling.
The shameful presentation that Americans who demand secure borders and an equal application of the law are somehow “anti-Latino” or “anti-immigrant” is perpetuated by people who cannot find a reasonable argument for allowing everyone on the planet – or in Latin America – to come live in the USA. And because they have created a thriving business advocating for criminals.
The goal of the coaltion of the radical left and Wall St. is really open borders.
Here in the metro Atlanta area, we are nearly out of water, and there was talk three or four years ago of making I-75 twenty three lanes wide near my home. That will eventually happen. English has become an optional language in the American south and the flag of Mexico flies everywhere. Low skilled wages have been steadily declining for years.
Americans who cannot speak Spanish are being denied jobs for that reason in Georgia.
We are bailing out the banksters who illegally made mortgage loans to illegal aliens using Mexican ID.
We as a nation have the right to decide how many people we want to live in our republic and we certainly have the right to demand that our immigration and employment laws are enforced. Those of us who insist that criminal employers who draw the migrating wage-thieves here be punished are in the majority of the ever increasing number of aware and angry American people.
Sadly, the people with the courage to say exactly that are branded “racist” ( what race is illegal?) and “haters” by the race-baiting far left like MALDEF, La Raza, LULAC and that perpetual fund raising machine disguised as a law firm, the SPLC. That fact is either ignored or helped along and perpetuated by many in the MSM. The rocket scientist Rick Sanchez of CNN leaps to mind. I watched in November as he literally had an SPLC critter (Mark Potok) spew his usual hate mongering and name calling from a telephone on the air.
Sanchez literally had him phone it in!
My cat could easily defeat Sanchez (or Potok) in a debate. Having done many live CNN/FOX News hits, although I have a face for radio, I would happily paint the house belonging to any CNN producer who would get me on his show in place of my feline to expose his mindless open borders ethnic oriented agenda.
Mexico uses its military to try to secure its own borders and deports nearly as many people each year as we do….virtually all of whom are Hispanics.
Radical xenophobes and haters….si?
Most Americans don’t give a hoot about where a real immigrant comes from. But we do insist that they become assimilated and adopt to the American culture and language.
That ideal is not un-American.
We also understand that legalization – by any name – does not result in secured American borders, enforced employment laws or an end to illegal immigration. We proved that with the “one-time amnesty” of 1986. We will not forget the lesson.
Instead of the reported sixty “Latino leaders”, Obama would do well to schedule meetings with mainstream Americans who study immigration and the law. We know more about the issue than he does and we want what is best for the nation – not for special interest groups using ethnicity and skin color as victimhood and a basis for special treatment.
Obama would also do well to heed the advice of the late Barbara Jordan, the first black woman elected to congress and the Bill Clinton appointed head of his Commission on Immigration Reform from the 90’s. From Jordan in 1995: ” To gain credibility on immigration policy: “Those who should get in, get in; those who should be kept out, are kept out; and those who should not be here will be required to leave — deportation is crucial.”
On the criminal employers who lure illegals into our republic, Jordan recommended mandatory electronic verification of legal employment eligibility. “Employer sanctions can work,” she said.
Fortunately for Jordan, a 1994 Presidential Medal of Freedom award winner, 21st century ethnic hustlers, biased journalists with a clear agenda like Sanchez and Wall St. scammers in search of even more taxpayer subsidized “cheap labor’ weren’t there to attack her “extremism.” Si?
Heads up – the coming corporate funded attempt to repeat the amnesty of 1986 will be met with more defiant popular grass-roots resistance that the media – or the Congress – can ever imagine and the price of it passing would be a forever divided “new-America” that will simply become part of the envisioned “North American Community” dedicated to redistribution of the wealth, socialism and increased profit for those who are more equal in the disgusting barnyard of 21st century American politics.
Please pass this on to the suits at CNN HQ who may think they are fooling all of the people all of the time. And Sanchez.
