They want everything America has to offer and the democRATs want to give it to them while those of us who work for a living foot the bill. No thanks.

WASHINGTON – The Senate moved Thursday to delay a politically charged showdown vote on legislation carving out a path to legal status for foreign-born youngsters brought to this country illegally, putting off but probably not preventing the measure's demise.
Facing GOP objections, Democrats put aside the so-called Dream Act and said they'd try again to advance it before year's end. They're short of the 60 votes needed to do so, however, and critics in both parties quickly said they won't change their minds in the waning days of the Democratic-controlled Congress.

What a steaming pantload.
Amnesty by any other name is still amnesty.
Yeah, and the AP Obama water-carrier called the DREAM Act (a real acronym) “so-called.”
Hey Julie, nice try. It’s pretty tough to say something dumber than Obama croaks on a daily basis, but you have done it sweetie.
“Young immigrants bill”. ROTFL!!! Just say NO to drugs!
“foreign born youngsters”....nice spin, you lying SOB lib morons.
We must fight and defeat amnesty at all cost.
14-Year-Old Mexican Drug Gang Hit Man Is US Citizen

MEXICO CITY Officials confirmed Thursday that a 14-year-old boy who carried out assassinations for a Mexican drug gang is a US citizen and so is his 19-year-old sister.
The boy and his sister were arrested a week ago as they tried to board a plane to Tijuana. A 23-year-old sister who drove them to the airport was also detained.
Morelos Gov. Marco Adame Castillo said last week the 14-year-old was born in San Diego, Calif. The teen, nicknamed "El Ponchis," told reporters last Friday he had worked for a drug cartel since he was 11 and that he participated in at least four decapitations.
He said he felt bad as he cut the throats of the victims, but said. He denied hanging the bodies of the victims from bridges. “I only cut their throats, but I never went to hang (them) to the bridges. Never,” he said.

“I only cut their throats, but I never went to hang (them) to the bridges. Never,” the 14-Year-Old Mexican Cartel hitman said.
(Sniffle) Gee, watta nice guy. A real credit to the US (sob).
Changing the name is a common liberal tactic; like when Pelooser renamed the Bush Tax Cuts the "Middle Class Tax Cuts".
Liberalism is a disease.
In other words, incremental amnesty. If we pass the Nightmare Act, next they'll tell us we can't send the parents home. They won't stop until they've turned us into the cesspools they turned their own countries into.
It targets the most sympathetic of the millions of undocumented people — those brought to the United States as children, who in many cases consider themselves American, speak English and have no ties to or family living in their native countries.
Any sympathy I may have had went out the door when they were in the streets waving the Mexican flag, telling me they demand to stay here. They've sucked enough out of the taxpayers, send them home.
They want everything America has to offer and the democRATs want to give it to them while those of us who work for a living foot the bill. No thanks.
Nice play on words once again “young immigrants bill” Where have you ever heard of a nation that caters to illegal immigrants at the cost of thier own who were elected to represent AMERICAN TAXPAYING CITIZENS. Come January I want to see hell fire from the GOP in the house or they to will be swept out with the trash! I am sickened by the site of these despicable bastards
Good points....and Illegal Alien Amnesty musy be defeated at all costs. It is the number one issue....as Americans do not have the money or infrastructure to handle up to 100 million third worlders.
I am dismayed that GOP Talk radio is not covering the issue. The tax bill and other stuff is moot if 100 million Third Worlders are brought into the USA. That will raise your taxes
If the bill dies in the Senate by virtue of supporters failing to garner the 60 votes needed for cloture, then it is dead for this session of Congress. If supporters wish to bring it up in the next Congress, the fact that it passed in the 2010 House of Representatives is, I assume, moot. So DREAM Act supporters would have to start over in the new and improved House, right?
If my thinking is right, if the bill fails to achieve cloture in the lame duck Senate session, it is for all practical purposes dead until 2013 at the earliest. And given the prospect of GOP Senate gains in 2012, it may be dead for a much longer time. Am I missing anything here?
Since the Dream Act was first introduced in 2001 it has passed the Senate Judiciary Committee four times. It also passed the full Senate in 2006 but died when the House didn’t take it up. If it fails in the senate this time the version that passed in the House is dead.
Thanks. I was almost certain that was the case, but I wanted some confirmation. I want the DREAM Act to be, as the Coroner of Oz would say, not only merely dead, but really most sincerely dead.
