Retired Congressman Duncan Hunter released this statement today regarding this weekend’s critical votes in the United States Senate:
The so-called DREAM Act does one thing – and that is it disserves the men and woman of our Border Patrol and our other border control agencies. It increases the magnet for illegal immigration into the United States. It is one more way of saying that if you get past the immigration officers, and you violate our laws and come into the United States, and you cut into the line in front of the people who are patiently waiting, you will be rewarded in some way. That is exactly the wrong message we should be sending in this age, when we need to really enforce the border and make sure that folks who come into this country knock on the front door. The Senate should reject this amnesty plan from the open borders lobby.
And once again, the liberals in the Senate and the House are prepared to “reward” the great men and women who won the war in Iraq by forcibly injecting practicing homosexuals into their ranks. I would advise the members of the Senate and the House to listen to your Marine Commanders, who commanded the point of the spear, the tip of the spear – that is the platoons, the companies, the battalions, and regiments of Americans in combat – to reject this new legislation that would repeal Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. What the legislation really amounts to is an unprecedented injection of practicing homosexuals into the ranks of young men and women who joined the US Military not only for all the benefits that are offered, and not only for the opportunity to serve their country, but also for the wholesome atmosphere that the US Military has always maintained, with its reliance on traditional values. Those traditional values are about to be ripped apart by the leftwingers in the House and the Senate. My advice to all the members of the Senate who want to see the continued effectiveness of the US Military is to reject this radical approach that is being spearheaded by Barrack Obama and Harry Reid in the next couple of days.

More are interested in what Sarah Palin's take is on the issue.

Damn straight!! THis is a trainwreck.
THANK YOU Roses.
Thanks for posting. Numbers usa will also give talking points.
"Unlike Hunter, Palin supports a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens."
That unknown has-been is irrelevant.
Palin's support for a "pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens" is a bus ticket back to where they came from, and then they get in line with those attempting to come here legally.
Sen. Mitch McConnel Republican minority leader and Republican members of the US House ALL violated the US Constitution to pass the recent tax bill, which should have started in the Hosue not the Senate.
In other words, these socialists do not care what you want or think.

RT @thegoldfarb: It looks like Dems have now lost Corker and McCain, and I suspect Graham too. START is suddenly looking doomed.

Yep. It is an astounding display of arrogance by these chumps.
Keep scorching their EARS OFF!!!!
Call your senator!
Not only that but McConnel aided in the passage of the HC bill by not requiring it to be read in to the record, and the same holds true for the house.
I already called Voinovich's office (wasted my time, as always).
Sherrod Brown wouldn't get a phone call from me if his number was 9-1-1
