Dem Compares Obama’s Unilateral Action on Immigration to Lincoln’s Freeing of the Slaves
The Blaze ^ | Nov. 15, 2014 | Pete Kasperowicz

Posted on 11/15/2014 8:51:28 AM PST by Ben Mugged

Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) this week said President Barack Obama’s pending plan to give legal status to millions of illegal immigrants will someday be seen as an historical action along the lines of the Emancipation Proclamation.

Johnson, one of several Democrats pushing for Obama to move on his own and allow millions of immigrants to live and work legally in the United States, also said movies would someday be made about Obama’s action.

Lincoln freed the slaves to cripple the south's economy. Obama will do the same.

Lincoln had no legal or Constitutional authority to release the slaves IN THE SOUTH. He did it anyway.

I notice Lincoln did nothing for the slaves that were not in the south.

Hank won't be singing any hosannas when these illegals overrun his district and vote him out in favor of one of their own.

Isn’t Johnson concerned that if we have many more immigrants the United States will tip over ?

This guy has IQ of 50 as there is no comparison. The slaves were here “legally”. Illegals broke in, came illegally, stayed illegally, faked or stole ID, SSN, etc., illegally secure services, don’t pay taxes, take jobs, infect us, crowd our schools, stores, and kill us on the roads. No, illegals are not slaves. Freeing illegals is to simply dump them over the border. It frees us.

The Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the rebel states. There were still many states where slavery remained in place.

Actually, The Emancipation Proclamation was in the third year of the Civil War. We were already fighting.

Hank Johnson thinks Guam will tip over if more people go there. Hank Johnson took over the post held by the esteemed Cynthia McKinney. The fact that people vote for him speaks volumes.

I’m thinking a March on DC is in order if this goes down as Obama promises....and promises...and IF he finally delivers a reason for a eye to eye meeting in DC with the American People.

I’d certainly give up some vacation time to the effort to send a message.

What Lincoln did was lawless, too. His lawless Emancipation Proclamation freed exactly ZERO slaves.

If I were Black and I heard democrats talking this way I would be incensed, after being taught for years that I and my brothers were owed by the White man for being a slave and now Whitey wants to give all my goodies to someone that just walked across the border.

You have to wonder if the Blacks will ever wake up to their ongoing slavery to the demoncraps.
