Pelosi: Republicans Would Pass Immigration Reform for the Irish
Breitbart ^ | 04/11/14 | William Bigelow

Posted on 04/11/2014 6:39:11 AM PDT by nhwingut

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has judged the GOP—and found it racist.

Speaking at her weekly press briefing Thursday, she said cuttingly that the reason the GOP has not followed through on a comprehensive immigration reform bill was simple; the GOP would be comfortable with good ol’ white Irishmen immigrating to the United States but not people of another color.

I am going to guess that not many black or brown people live in Nancy’s neighborhood. Nancy “Good for thee, not for me” Pelosi.

So—if thousands of Irish came here illegally, she would be good with that?

Isn’t that rassist?

If the libs weren’t certain that the vast majority of illegals would eventually vote democrat, they wouldn’t care a whit if they died of thirst in the desert.

Want to see the Dems oppose open immigration? Just open it to immigrants with very conservative views.

Nancy seems to forget that a Congress of which she was a member voted to allow more Irish to immigrate to the United States than the percentage of the world population at the behest of Senator Edward Moore Kennedy. I wonder if she is throwing Senator Kennedy under the bus or maybe under the aircraft carrier as the case may be.

Didn’t Ted Kennedy try to get some special treatment in the immigration law for the Irish?

I can’t remember the last time the Irish illegally sneaked into the country... unless they had a few pints in them... SORRY! Had to say it.

There’s the matter of Ireland being separated from us by an ocean vs Mexico having no such natural barrier to entry to the USA.

So what else is new. Nasty Nancy believes white Americans are “rasis”. What are the commie ‘RATS going to do when Barry is cooling his heals and counting his money on the beach in Hawaii and they won’t have the race card to throw around anymore? Alinskyites are morons.

Kennedy was a major cog in the '68 and '86 immigration 'reforms'. A major part of his motivation in each case was to buy Irish street cred by making sure the illegal Irish then swamping Boston and other anchor cities were favorably treated. It can be argued that the unintended consequences of giving the Irish preferential treatment the last two times immigration 'reform' was implemented have put us in the mess we're in now.

“Being Hispanic is NOT a race, its an ethnicity.”

It’s actually neither.

The people of Mexico and Spain don’t share the same ethnicity. They just speak the same language. Most Mexicans are descendants of the native population of central america.

Republican “resistance” to reform is being pictured in the way Nanacy Pelosi wants to frame it.

It does not, and never did, have a thing to do with color.

It does have a great deal to do with bringing to America persons EARNESTLY interested in personal freedom, and of good character, and with skills useful to the commerce of America as a business enterprise.

Importing of persons who only want to bring the trappings of their former place, with all its limitations and rigid rules of misconduct, with them, who are of malevolent intent, or who possess few skills to assure personal success in life, is exactly opposite to the goals and aspirations of all those generations of immigrants who have found America, adopted its ways, and prospered in the new land.
