House Leaders to Educate Voters About Immigration: 'Become America'
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | July 18, 2013 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 07/18/2013 6:09:18 AM PDT by Timber Rattler

House Majority Leader Eric Cantos (R-VA) will lead a tour of House leaders next week aimed at educating Americans, and each other, about the history and importance of immigration to the United States. The tour, dubbed the "Become America" tour, will feature events and speeches aimed at overcoming opposition to the passage of comprehensive immigration reform, which has stumbled amidst opposition from conservatives.

(snip)

The trip is being coordinated by the non-profit Faith & Politics Institute, and will include members of both parties, such as Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), a persistent advocate of amnesty for illegal immigrants. In April, Guiterrez told a wealthy audience in Chicago that they owed it to the people who "wash the dishes" and "take care of your kids and mow your lawn" to support a path to U.S. citizenship for illegal aliens.

Arrogance...presuming that we need to be "educated" about what we all know to be true.

Indoctrinated is a better word.

How many Mexican citizens are getting food stamps and rent assistance paid for by the U.S. taxpayer? Inquiring minds want to know.

Sorry, but very very few congresscritters in the house or senate have the intelligence or education to “educate” anyone.

And anyone who voted for bills before they read them should be tortured, hanged, and their sorry *ssed remains buried in Obamastuff.

Not now.

But yesterday.

I don’t need them to tell me about immigration. How dare they treat us like children?

They need to be educated about illegal immigration. They are insulting all of us. Just proving they are fools.

We know what immigration is, DC. We don’t want to reward ILLEGAL immigrants who broke into our country. The arrogance and deceit on this issue from DC over the last 7 years makes me want to bang my head against a wall. Or maybe bang some other peoples’ heads against a wall.

Very inclusive, if you believe America is populated exclusively by leftist democrats.

Let’s never discuss that an illegal immigrant is a lousy potential citizen, a user by definition.

I never hear any intelligent discussion of what is good for America. For instance, I assume these people will continue to vote in Mexican elections. These are not faithful Americans.

Maybe they need to be educated on the law. We don’t willfully want criminals in this country based on law. Laws protect the citizens and yet you want a group of people who have proven they don’t care about the laws we have.

I will say it again these poeple are criminals. Maybe that was not clear enough THESE PEOPLE ARE CRIMINALS.

Look what happened to Trayvon Martin. This is what our country will end up like if you morons keep letting people flount the law.

Man the GOP is just plain stupid.

I don’t need their effin “education”! I know all about “immigration”, the LEGAL kind.

But apparently THEY could use some education because they do not know what ILLEGAL means.

We are so screwed....

Excellent point. Let's see if they even mention the significant, basic distinctions between legal, self-supporting immigration and illegal, parasitic "immigration".

These Republican elites -- becoming more and more like the Democrat Socialist Left each day -- really think they can cause confusion in the minds of the electorate. They know they'll lose (if they haven't already lost) the conservative base, but they must think if they can just convince enough ignorant voters to vote for Republicans who think and behave like Democrats rather than voting for Democrats who think and behave like Socialists, that's a "winning strategy".

Fools!

That would be me. They don't act like they owe me anything.

I have no problem with immigrants who are here legally and work for a living.
Does that make me a racist? Probably.
