Amnesty Revisited

Yet Another I Told You So

Hey folks,

This was pointed out to me by SG. "I guess you were right."

Of course I am. I warned you all about this, as well as many other things. It really is this simple. When a Loon is in charge, the Loons come out of the woodwork. The Congress, and even President Bush, attempted to grant Amnesty, over and over again. The NEW Media, Talk Radio, gave you folks the TRUTH on this. YOU put a stop to this.

But NOW? According to the Washington Post - Immigrant Advocates Reach Out To Obama By N.C. Aizenman Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, November 12, 2008; B05

Dozens of immigrant advocates from across the country convened in Washington yesterday to call on President-elect Barack Obama to halt work-site immigration raids and fulfill campaign pledges to offer the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in the United States a path to citizenship within his first year in office.

AMNESTY! Unlike the last countless attempts, this time, you have very little say. This time, we will have a President that wants it, and a Congress that wants it. If they are able to steal another three seats, they will have a filibuster proof Majority. Since they do not care what you think, this will pass no questions asked.

Representatives of the Fair Immigration Reform Movement, a coalition of grass-roots organizations from Los Angeles, New York and the Washington area, also announced plans to mobilize tens of thousands of immigrants and their supporters for a demonstration on the Mall on Jan. 21, the day after Obama's inauguration.

"We voted in the millions, and now we're going to demand progress in the millions," said Angelica Salas, director of one of the allied organizations, the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, at a news conference to publicize the movement's efforts.

Get use to this folks. They want Amnesty. The Feminists want Murder. The Socialists want redistribution of wealth, and Libs in general want to silence Free Speech. Obama is going to be busy.

The last attempt by Congress to overhaul the immigration system foundered in spring 2007 amid a storm of angry phone calls from constituents complaining that the legalization component amounted to an unacceptable "amnesty" for lawbreakers. And several members of the coalition acknowledged yesterday that the tanking economy had further complicated their efforts.

But the election is over folks. They are guaranteed another two year term. President Obama is guaranteed four. "So SCREW YOU America. We will do what we want."

However, they said they were also confident that the record participation of Hispanic and immigrant voters in last week's elections would translate into greater political clout.

Get it?

Turnout among Latinos -- who tend to favor legalizing undocumented immigrants -- increased by 30 percent from the 2004 presidential race. Two-thirds of the Latino vote went to Obama, compared with barely more than half for the 2004 Democratic nominee, Sen. John F. Kerry (Mass.). And Latinos proved particularly helpful to Obama and other Democrats in the battleground states of Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado.

"Historically, we've never had legislative progress on immigration during an economic recession," said Chung-Wha Hong, executive director of another alliance member, the New York Immigration Coalition. "On the other hand, we've never had these kinds of numbers turn out at the polls. . . . The immigrant and Latino vote has permanently established itself as part of the electoral calculus."

Can you say ACORN?

Although Hong and the other speakers said they did not expect Obama to tackle immigration legislation within his first 100 days, they outlined several executive decisions such as the moratorium on immigration raids that they hoped he would take immediately. These included devoting more resources to clearing up a backlog of visa applications, improving conditions at immigrant detention facilities and suspending the Bush administration's recent decision to begin mailing notices to 140,000 employers of workers with suspect Social Security numbers, warning them that they have 90 days to resolve the discrepancies or fire the workers.

"We need an end to these harsh tactics that don't work," Salas said. "Americans have shown that they want practical solutions."

They have SHOWN THEY DO NOT WANT AMNESTY. You IDIOT! They do not want FELONS rewarded. Yeah, let's stop enforcing the laws. Let's stop punishing companies that hire them. Let's just forget their misdeeds and reward them. Yup, that will stop it. Even more will flood in thinking, "hey, even if we get caught, they will just grant us Citizenship ANYWAY." So?

Here we go again folks. Get ready.
