Organizing for Action will hold an immigration "day of action" May 2 that could include rallies around the country and visits to members of Congress. The group is also holding nearly 250 phone banks Tuesday to appeal for supporters to get involved.

There’s an absolutely enormous bloc of Democrat Party voters to be had, if the Democrats can just get those who have come here illegally made citizens.

And for decades to come, these characters will be dependent on the Democrats to pass all sorts of federal giveaways and perks for the newbies, all at taxpayer expense.

Aren’t you happy to pay the way for this scam? Your family doesn’t need all that cash, now really, does it?

The only thing broken about the system is that it is ignored. Existing immigration laws are sound but not enforced. If you have a car with a tire that has a slow leak. Do you pull it over on the side of the road and set it ablaze?

I am a simple man that believes in simple observation. I don’t create nuance. I dismantle into plainspeak.

Totally against this bill in any shape or form. A bad idea all around. They say we can’t round them all up and deport them but I have a better plan.

Pass a bill that starts in January of 2014 that states the federal government will roundup and execute of all illegals regardless of race, creed, color, sexual orientation (to keep it politically correct) and give Americans living on border states North or South (again with the PC shxt) authorization to shoot anyone coming across the border. I’m sure there would be a mass exodus.

Also include in that bill anyone on welfare would be required to replace the jobs the illegals were doing at the same pace or production to earn their welfare or they will be rounded up and banished to Detroit to live out the remainder of their lives.

Immigration reform is the gateway to terrorism. The left's favorite word, "Undocumented" is code for "ethnic solidarity" (think Boston bombers w/ a latino accent). Thanks to vote-crazed pols pimping reform, the word in the bodegas is: "come on down---invade the US, and bring bombs. It's open season to conduct dirty deeds....and US politicans are helping us."

=======================================================

REGISTERING TO VOTE AT THE BORDER---MEET OUR NEW DEMOCRATIC VOTERS---Viscious Mexican drug cartels are swarming into the US----beheadings are their calling card. The Mexican drug lords are partners in financial arrangements with Hamas and Hezbollah terorists. They will be empowered to expand those partnerships via The Schumer-Rubio amnesty bill. It’s a small step from blanketing America w/ marijuana and heroin to aiding and abetting Hezbollah terrorist operations. To these hardened criminal, the profit motive rules, no matter the source.

NY POST EXCERPT--- Mexican cartels dispatch agents deep inside US - spread into non-border states

CHICAGO (AP) — Mexican drug cartels whose operatives once rarely ventured beyond the US border are dispatching some of their most trusted agents to live and work deep inside the United States — an emboldened presence that experts believe is meant to tighten their grip on the world's most lucrative narcotics market and maximize profits. If left unchecked, authorities say, the cartels' move into the American interior could render the syndicates harder than ever to dislodge and pave the way for them to expand into other criminal enterprises such as prostitution, kidnapping- and-extortion rackets and money laundering.

Some cartels even have Mexican operatives fill out job applications before being dispatched to the US, Riley added.

In Mexico, the cartels are known for a staggering number of killings — more than 50,000, according to one tally. Beheadings are sometimes a signature. So far, cartels don't appear to be directly responsible for large numbers of slayings in the United States, though the Texas Department of Public Safety reported 22 killings and five kidnappings in Texas at the hands of Mexican cartels from 2010 through mid- 2011. Still, police worry that increased cartel activity could fuel heightened violence.--SNIP--

In Chicago, the police commander who oversees narcotics investigations, James O'Grady, said street-gang disputes over turf account for most of the city's uptick in murders last year, when slayings topped 500 for the first time since 2008.

Although the cartels aren't dictating the territorial wars, they are the source of drugs. Riley's assessment is stark: He argues that the cartels should be seen as an underlying cause of Chicago's disturbingly high murder rate. "They are the puppeteers," he said. "Maybe the shooter didn't know and maybe the victim didn't know that. But if you follow it down the line, the cartels are ultimately responsible."

AS SICKIOFLIBS INSIGHTFULLY POSTED: There is winning or whining, we need to choose. Post-2012 we now know "Immigration Reform" is a dangerous issue for Repubs---they are cornered.

A Morning Joe guest pointed out that even suckup Obama once voted against immigration reform b/c it lacked a ‘path to citizenship’----a key demand of strongarm unions.

MJ guest also observed that unions are not enthused about immigration reform b/c legalized workers will compete with union members (exactly why business wants it). Now unions will go along IF illegals get the vote (cunning union bosses calculate this will help them b/c illegals will vote Dem/lib).

SOLibs SOLUTION---HOIST THEM ON THEIR OWN PETARD Repubs in the House should not do or say anything until Reid gets a bill passed. At that point, Rs offer a ‘compromise’ that is similar to Obama's relentless EO's.....but contains no path to citizenship.

Now if Reid fails, the GOP goes into 2014 rubbing the debacle into the faces of a key Dem base (EXACTLY how Obama plays Rs against each other) .

It is important that Repubs say things like “America is built on hard working immigrants and we welcome those immigrants who want to follow our laws, pay their taxes and live the American Dream’ (the way O sucks up----not pull a Romney 47% gaffe). When the bill dies for lack of union support---- Repubs can then blame Dems and Obama for ‘making the perfect the enemy of the good.'

Amen.

And it's the War on Drugs that hyperinflates the profit margins.

I am wondering....what would happen if those opposed to this travesty just refused to file their tax returns? ;-) After all, they let on like we “need” these ILLEGAL CRIMINALS to boost our economy and they will be paying taxes, fines, yada, yada, yada.... We can always say it’s their turn to keep US up for a while. Can you imagine the chaos that would ensue if all of us that _didn’t_ want this shoved down our throats just quit paying into the system?

Yes, we’d all go to prison.

And don’t for a minute think they wouldn’t do it, even if they had to transform Yankee Stadium into one huge cell.

Unfortunately you are right. Law abiding citizens could never get away with what the illegal criminals have.
