Is everyone @ AP having fun on:
Reagan did not act alone, he made a deal with Congress (which failed on its end of the deal) and it was one of the biggest regrets of his Presidency
Is everyone @ AP having fun on:
lol. Andrew Taylor is obviously still in a tizzy of the election. the butt hurt in this one is strong.
I wonder if he has ever referred to the democrats as "big labor influenced", or "gay rights obsessed" . . . "Baby murdering" . . . You get the idea.
Nearly three decades ago, there was barely a peep when Reagan and Bush used their authority to extend amnesty to the spouses and minor children of immigrants covered by the 1986 law.
1) there wasn't a peep because the 86 law was passed (unfortunately) via the constitutional process; and 2) part of the bill was to garauntee border security indefinitely. Of course the bottom feeders in the majority, democrats true to their lying character, completely reneged on this part.
Reagan DID NOT ACT ALONE on immigration reform.
It was an initiative properly legislated, beginning with a subcommitte which became known as “Simpson/Mazzoli.
It continued through the Constitutional process, with the Bill originating in the House and was passed to the Senate, as called for in the Constitution.
The bill failed but, was brought up again and passed.
President Reagan only signed it after it went through the legislative process.
Reagan DID NOT ACT ALONE.
HE DID NOT INITIATE THE PROCESS.
That said, the bill did not result in some 10 million illegals receiving citizenship, legal resident status or worker permitting.
In fact, 20 years after the bill only 22% of the original illegal aliens obtained some sort of status.
And remember this: That 22% was only reached in the last 12 years.
The majority of Latinos felt they would be in some sort of jeopardy if they even attempted to obtain status and hence, never applied.
of the 22% who did achieve legal status, 70 +% felt they too would be in jeopardy but, with certain assurances, by various gubmint representatives, they rolled the dice as a last resort and received their vaunted legal status.
Even if it were true, I would support impeachment for them as well.
What’s with Liberals justifying crime by saying that others also committed the crime, so it’s ok?
You would have to be a “stupid” ObamaCare supporter or something to work that logic.... oh, yeah....
Dead Red Ted Kennedy LIED...
Making regulations the congress doesn't approve of is the same as making regulations they do approve of.
And anyone who says different is a racist!
What is so hard to understand?
We've been systematically invaded since then by tens of millions, from countries like Mexico where the people have zero respect for our laws and rules. This has cost the tax payers dearly, looted the American treasure of many hundreds of billions, created tens of thousands of crime victims, and on and on.
And now they want to do the same damn thing again, by rewarding them.
They have literally replaced Americans and completely changed many regions of our country with millions of illegals and now they to reward them...Again. Over and over.
I have nothing but contempt for those supporting the obvious incremental demise of America. And that is exactly what this is. And every bit of it was sponsored by and aided and abetted by our own government.
This is yet another infuriating article by the so-called “Associated Press (AP)”, aka “American Pravda” — basically lying about Reagan/Bush’s Amnesty (WITH Congressional approval) to construe it as SIMILAR to President Narcissus’s forthcoming use of executive order to pass laws from the Executive Office:
However, the AP conveniently glosses over these facts:
-Obama’s unilateral action will be completely unconstitutional.
-Whether or not we agree with the Reagan/Bush Amnesty, it WAS constitutional because of congressional approval.
That’s a big difference that “American Pravda (AP)” doesn’t want the sheeple to understand.
That the AP gets away with this type of fraudulent reporting is astonishing. These left-wing journalists are the lowest form of scum.

My post: That 1982 Supreme Court ruling is the reason we need Constitutional amendments like the following to try to control illegal immigration:
1. "School attendance: Only citizens, legal residents, those with special student visas can attend elementary, high school, and colleges in the United States."
2. "One parent must be a citizen before a newborn child is given automatic citizenship."
3. Felony: We must finally get very serious and declare that crossing the border illegally is a felony. It sounds mean to call it a felony, but we must do it, if we will ever have any chance of controlling our borders. Having the same illegals crossing our borders over and over is wrong,wrong, and wrong.
Illegal immigrant parents come to the United States for the wonderful benefits that their children can receive, like a quality education and great health care. Can you blame them for making the dangerous, long trip with their young children, or sending their children by themselves with the hope that the United States will automatically let them stay?
I don't understand how a child can illegally cross the southern border one day and automatically be eligible to enroll in public school the next day. That is wrong.
