Hard To Find Illegals, Unless They Are In The NYT

"Those darn Illegals, are just to hard to find."

Hey folks,

Happy Friday to you. Since it is Friday, it's time to go to the Emails. Here it is.

NY Times Publicizes a Four-Person March in Support of Illegal Immigrants By: Clay Waters January 04, 2010 16:10 ET

A “march” from Miami to Washington on behalf of illegal immigrants consisting of a grand total of four marchers somehow merited a 780-word New York Times article by reliably pro-amnesty reporter Julia Preston, “To Overhaul Immigration, Advocates Alter Tactics.”

By contrast, a massive anti-Obama rally that attracted over 100,000 people to the Capitol on September 12 resulted in virtually the same level of print coverage in the Times: A 932-word article.

The text box to Preston's story on Saturday read: “Hoping that a four-person walk will resonate in a way mass marches did not.” That lack of resonance was not through any fault of Times reporters like Preston who mainstreamed the marches and portrayed them in a positive light.

Preston certainly embraced the self-serving melodrama of the protesters:

Lacing up new pairs of walking shoes with a flourish, four immigrant students set out on foot from downtown Miami on Friday, starting a four-month walk to Washington to protest what they called the Obama administration’s lack of action on legislation granting legal status to illegal immigrants.Three of the four protesters, who are current or former students at Miami Dade College, do not have legal-resident status and risk detention by immigration authorities during the 1,500-mile walk.

The protesters must not have felt too much risk, given that all four (!) were identified by photo and name in the story.

The students’ trek showed the resolve and also some limitations of groups supporting an immigration overhaul that would include measures to legalize illegal immigrants. Those groups said this week that they would start a national campaign in January to pressure President Obama to push for the overhaul before midterm elections in November.

But as immigration enforcement has continued at a steady pace during the first year of the Obama administration, many illegal immigrants are clinging to jobs and families in this country and may be afraid to participate in public demonstrations. With unemployment holding at 10 percent, immigrant advocates acknowledge that their campaign could awaken passionate opposition in Congress and around the country.

Preston got to a single opponent of amnesty in her very last paragraph:

“Allowing millions of illegal immigrants to stay and take jobs away from citizens and legal immigrants is like giving a burglar a key to the house,” said Representative Lamar Smith of Texas, the senior Republican on the House Judiciary Committee.

Amnesty is not dead folks. Neither is Cap and Tax. Neither is all the other stuff that they want to do. No. Obama is far from done. As we have seen with Obamacare, the Kooks in congress have taken the Lead of our enemies. They have become Suicide Bombers. Politically speaking of course.

They have discovered, that it is pretty hard to stop someone that is willing to kill themselves for their cause. They are committing Political Suicide in their dark back rooms with Obamacare. They know this. So once they get this passed, they will them move on to Amnesty, and all the rest. There are no more checks and balances. They just simply do not care what you think or even what you do at the polls. They have an agenda, and they are sticking to it, for their Master, King Hussein Obama.
