Video just being released:

"We will be creating a governing coalition for the long term, not just for an election cycle."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK7K0itgQt0

At the America's Future Now! conference in Washington, DC on June 2, 2009, SEIU International Executive Vice President Eliseo Medina addressed attendees on why comprehensive immigration reform is an important issue for the progressive community to support, and how progressives can forge common ground on an immigration reform strategy.

Good catch’
This MUST be seen by as many as possible and Freepers will get it out there.

This is purely frightening and could so easily happen if we don’t stop it

A perfect reason to ship the illegals out of the country. They aren’t smart enough to get involved in our politics.

Interesting how this guy uses the analogy of a parasite.

Not staying in the original Country and fighting to make THAT Country more like the U.S. but feed on american Freedoms to make the U.S. look more like the third world h-hole the individual came from.

Wow what a concept.

Why you think SEIU is advocating amnesty and why ACORN was chosen to impliment the census.....Dems knew this, political analysts knew this, and many have warned about such....for quite sometime.

Not only hordes of voters (I’m sure they would be required to wait 5 years for citizenship eligibility) BUT hordes of UNION dues paying members.

It’s almost indentured servitude.

GWB, McCain, Graham, et al, they all knew this too, and they nevertheless tried to ram amnesty down our throats in 2007. Just makes no sense.

But 8 million votes? That is LOWBALL. There are approximately 20 million illegals in the US. Amnesty would allow them to bring in immediate family members. So that could be another 20-40 million.

And if they break 80% Dem....well, it would be more like 32-48 million more Dem votes.

Report: More than half of foreign-born Nebraska residents aren’t citizens

Arizona taxpayers owed $1 billion from illegal immigration

http://www.kvoa.com/news/arizona-taxpayers-owed-1-billion-from-illegal-immigration/

The cost of illegal immigration has exhausted the Arizona State Treasury. In order to pay for the federal government’s responsibility of securing our national borders and incarcerating individuals who enter the United States illegally and commit crimes, the state has incurred hundreds of millions of dollars of debt to pay these bills,” said Treasurer Dean Martin.

Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) has filed an amendment (Amdt. No. 3111) that would do three things:

It would require the use of a meaningful and effective verification system to ensure that illegal aliens will not be able to access taxpayer-funded tax subsidies created by the bill;
It would prevent illegal aliens from accessing the taxpayer-funded exchange to buy insurance; and
It would maintain the 5-year waiting period in current law so that immigrants must pay into the system before they are able to receive taxpayer-funded health benefits. The 5-year waiting period is critical because it embodies the principle that immigrants should not become a public charge - or burden - to the American people.

This is why I could never understand the positions of people like George W. Bush and John McCain on the subject of immigration. This is why the RATS are in favor of unlimited immigration both legal and illegal. A large majority of these immigrants WILL vote democratic. This is where the RATS have simply outsmarted the Republicans. This started in 1965 when the Democrats passed the Immigration Laws that have completely changed the United States, and I would argue for the worse.

This must be prevented by any and all means possible.

They’ve declared war on America — the idea — and the Constitution.
