My plan will not grant amnesty or move anyone to the front of the line.
An absolute bald lie. His plan is an amnesty that will grant blanket legal status to every illegal in this country and allow them to stay and work here. They are at the front of line, which really begins in their home country. What about the 4 million intending LEGAL immigrants who have filled out all the paperwork and are waiting their turn to enter?
Words have meanings. The Democrats and the mainstream media have hijacked the language surrounding the immigration issue to the point that we had Michael Chertoff, the Secretary of Homeland Security and our nation’s top immigration official at the time, testifying before Congress using the term “undocumented workers” to describe illegal aliens. John McCain and Barack Obama studiously avoided the term “amnesty” to describe their comprehensive immigration reform plans and despite the evidence, baldly declared that it was not an amnesty. Instead, they used such euphemisms as “getting to the back of the line,” “an earned path to citizenship,” and “coming out of the shadows.” The Democrats and pro-amnesty crowd know full well that the American people are against amnesty, hence the avoidance of the “A” word.
Then, watching the Fed suing Arizona for doing the Fed's Constitutionally mandated job of enforcing an international border has been too much to stomach, because of the reality of what that means.
The mental state that has taken over so much of US needs to somehow be countered or we go down.
Perhaps Dr. Paul's speech is designed to lower the resistance some of US have to common sense and the realities of being a careless falling soooper power in a dangerous world.
One has to be careful waking up a sleeping morning after alcoholic. Careful with those bright lights and noise, go slow, be nice, and maybe they'll see things more clearly once they wake up.
