Kill the jobs/economy/sovereignty killing bill!!
A country without borders is a notion, not a nation
I feel like I’ve been stabbed in the back. Again. By another bunch of “conservatives”.
Looks like the cheap labor pimps are out today.
There are only 2 groups that will benefit from Amnesty
The Democrats and cheap labor pimps.
WSJ is calling conservatives against amnesty Nazis. It has officially jumped the shark.
As Mark Levin described the WSJ editors — “a-holes”.
So it’s the “Blood and Soil” bunch versus the “Lawn-Care and Housekeeping” faction.
Did all these stakeholders in amnesty threaten to cancel their subscriptions or something?
They know full well this is a sham and what the consequences to our nation will be. So it makes me wonder - if this is their position, can the reader trust what the WSJ says about money and markets?
Wall Street Journal is pro-cheap labor? Damn. What a shock.
Doubling the size of the Border Patrol won’t fix anything if the government enforces the new laws like they enforced the old ones. Illegal immigration is fueled by two factors; access to employment and low threat of deportation. Until we fix those two problems a 40,000 strong border patrol will have no effect.
Not really. The phrase "blood and soil" predates the Nazis, and I have on occasion over the years used it as a handy short-hand for the strain of American conservatism that sees American nationhood and American patriotism in terms more fitted to the nations of Old Europe in which ancestry and birth were the basis of nationhood, rather than fealty to the ideals of a constitutional order as is (or should be) the case for Americans. And, it is, indeed, that strain of conservatism which is most vocal against any amnesty for illegal immigrants -- though there are sound conservative arguments based on the rule of law for being against it as well.
Full disclosure: as FReepers with long memories know, I am dead set against any path to citizenship for willful violators of our immigration laws. As far as I'm concerned an amnesty into guest-worker status, or an amnesty into red card status (permanent residency with no way to attain citizenship) could be part of a grand reform including serious border enforcement, harsher penalties for knowingly or without due diligence employing illegal immigrants, a guest-worker program and adjustments to immigration quotas, but an amnesty onto track to citizenship is right out.
The WSJ nerds clearly haven’t had their kitty litter changed.
WSJ = Globalists.
Next question.
Blood and Soil: Does that mean native folk who llove their land?
Well! WSJ you aren’t even free market. Any idiot knows that if you pump serf labor into a market that you’ve distorted that market.
at the July 4th GOP Picnic (Omaha, NE), I’ll be in attendance with a “NO AMNESTY” sign!!!! Might even take my Palin picture with me (2’ by 3’).
I was a regular subscriber to the WSJ until a few years ago. One of their contributing writer Thomas Frank extolled the virtues of Ayres and Dorhn. What crap. I have not read the paper nor purchased a copy since then
