Bachmann: If Immigrants Were Conservative, Obama Wouldn’t Want to Give Them ‘Amnesty’
Mediaite ^ | February 7th, 2014 | Matt Wilstein

Posted on 02/08/2014 10:27:55 PM PST by Slings and Arrows

During a radio interview this week with Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) shared her views on the immigration reform debate, revealing what she believes to be the real reason President Barack Obama and other Democrats are pushing for a path to citizenship for the millions of undocumented immigrants who currently live in the United States.

Bachmann began by saying she thinks it would be a “terrible idea” to move forward with any immigration plan this year in Congress. “Let’s face it, if these were conservative Republicans coming here illegally,” she said, “the last thing Obama would do is seek to give amnesty and citizenship and and legal voting status to the people coming into the country.”

She’s right..the ONLY reason why Obama and his cronies want amnesty for illegals is because they will vote Dem..Dems wont need to commit voter fraud anymore..they could win legit just by these votes alone

In other words, if these were people who obeyed the law, zero wouldn’t want to do them any special favors... It’s only the lawless that he wants as citizens because after all he couldn’t care less for the rule of law and the constitution that he supposedly swore to uphold...

Remember when they were interning Cuban refugees in Guantanamo?

That was Clinton. If they thought Mexicans would vote Repub, they’d be in Guantanamo just that quick.

You got that right, Michelle! He has no use for real conservatives because they tend to think for themselves. I miss hearing about Michelle Bachmann. I guess she will not be running for office again, or not for a while. She’ll be back. In the political world, she is still young.

How about if they were European the Dems would not want to give them amnesty? Whites don’t tilt far enough left for the Obama Admin especially those who are married

Illegal immigration must be 96% non white
Legal immigration is at lest 85% non-white

Amnesty?? Democrats would hunt them down with dogs. That is not an exaggeration.

Conservatives wouldn’t need amnesty because they wouldn’t have broken the law to begin with. They would go through legal channels.

If immigrants were conservative, the border would be mined and there would be machine gun nests every 50 meters.

The rancid legacy of Ted “The Red” Kennedy lives on after him. He led the move to tilt our immigration policies to admit a majority of non-whites to our country, and the Democrats have been cashing those votes ever since.

She is right on this one.

Too bad most Republicans are too stupid to see this...

Hell if Obama could get away with it he’d round up the daughters of the American revolution and ship them out.

I have a Good Friend from Lithuania, who was born and raised in Lithuania when it was a part of the Soviet Union.

Except her Heritage is BOSNIAN.

Her Grandparents were moved to Lithuania after World War 2 by the Communist regimes.

I can't shake that feeling here, Population Experimentation.

Move Different Ethic Groups around to minimize Friction. Or ones that are more compatible with the Regime while shipping Real Lithuanians off to Siberia.

Just More Subtle Communist Tyranny from Ubama.

Actually, she should rephrase her statement to direct it at the Mexican citizens.

“The Democrats favor illegal immigrants, on condition that they vote for Democrats. But once they are citizens, if they ever want to live decent lives for themselves and their families, they should vote for Republicans, because Democrats want to keep them poor and dependent.

“So why come to the US looking for a better life, if it means you will remain a peon to the Democrats? It may not be easy to become an American, but once you are, if you are wise, you want to lead a good life, to be a free man. The Democrats offer you easy slavery in exchange for your liberty and prosperity.”

That’s why I had so much trouble tracking my great grandfather before his arrival in the USA. He was Polish, Austrian, Russian, Jewish, Catholic, Methodist and had multiple names.
