Amnesty today proves illegal entry tomorrow is a good idea.
No guns for defense and illegals whose backgrounds are not checked out y’all come in! Whut could possibly go wrong?
Government by edict and application of regulatory bureaucracies, not answerable to any review or debate, is the way Xerxes of Persia was used to getting things done.
Xerxes, son of Darius, sort of bullied his way into the job, over the claims of an older brother, who was the child of a commoner, whereas Xerxes was of royal lineage. Once in the job, Xerxes crushed a revolt boiling in Egypt, and once this was under control, proceeded to the eastern Mediterranean sea to punish the Greeks for their temerity in attacking the lands and trade routes of the Persian empire. The huge army and fleet was held bottled up by King Leonidas and the 300 at Thermopylae, which sort of set Xerxes off. As a result, once he broke through, Athens ended up being burned down. Whether that was an accident, or “scorched earth” by the retreating Athenians, or just an irrational act by Xerxes, is still sort of an open question in history. But Xerxes was occupied with rebuilding at least the port facilities at Athens, while the various Greek navies stood offshore. The Greeks, to their everlasting glory, thought this a propitious time to strike, and owing to some circumstances of weather and positioning, soon left Xerxes with no option except retreat. Besides, some very serious insurrections were happening back in the kingdom, and his attention was drawn back to his home territory, where he chose to end foreign engagements, preferring to build a number of fine monuments at Persopolis. But situation went from bad to worse, and Xerxes ended up murdered by some of his own court advisors.
The article is incorrect. There IS a problem with the amnesty itself. Period.
Also, no one knows how many illegals will be covered by this. It’s (further)insanity to allow a group of illegals to become legal, whether it’s 11 million or 30 or 40 million.
But then why should anything approaching simple logic be discussed? Obviously this program should have a numerical limit, which many would argue is zero.
In before the Liberal PhonyCons start attacking WND....
Makes a lot of good points....Obama has his hands in deep ready to do Illegal Alien Amnesty on his own...and his Amnesty Liberal butt-boy Marco Rubio is there to provide cover in case amnesty backfires....Rubio-Obama Amnesty Bill gives Obama the excuse to blame the GOP
