Harry Reid is from Nevada, so he’s familiar with gambling. Still, the Senate majority leader is taking a heck of a risk by asking his fellow Democrats to vote on an immigration bill so close to an election. Specifically, Reid said today he may attach the Dream Act to the defense reauthorization bill.
What’s the Dream Act? It is legislation to offer a citizenship to illegal immigrants

You are correct. There are NO illegals in our military. legal immigrants can and do serve and then are on fast track for citizenship
but of course they have done everything LEGALLY
the only way an illegal could join the military is with fake ID. Don’t think too many illegals care enough to serve to use a fake ID to join. use a fake ID to get a job and bennies for the illegal kids and anchor babies yes
but to serve in an honorable institution like our military?
not happening
ALL FReepers need to call your Senators and make sure Reid isn’t allowed to put this crap into a defense bill
Sounds more like the Nightmare Act.
Reid hate America more than any of the leaders of countries that are our official enemies!
I sent Sharron $20 and I’m from TN.
The Dream Act is pure amnesty.
ALL students, regarless of citizenship, become anchor babies up to the age of 30(!) and can do serial immigration.
He needs to sit down and shut up.
He’s running on the “fear” campaign: scaring the ignornant, disabled and seniors into voting for him or what happens to Nevada is “THEIR FAULT!”
I need to email that idiot. Again.
Reid was a “bag man” for the Conforte family 30 years ago.
NumbersUSA is asking everyone to call their Senators to vote against this POC Act.
Where is Sharon Angle on this ? She should hold a News Conference and Blast him for this
‘I sent Sharron $20 ...’
ditto......from FL.
Let’s hope he does. I think enough Americans are in bad enough financial shape now that we’d REALLY resent having to take on the support of more people.
If he does so, I’m hoping Nevadans turn out in record numbers to support Sharron Angle and run him right out of D.C.
Since when does a US Senator work for, promote, pander to, and fund illegal alien causes? What about the US citizens -whee are their representatives -their government -their dreams?

Young Illegals Out Themselves, Daring To Be Deported
On July 20, 22 young illegal immigrants in caps and gowns entered the Hart Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C., and began sit-ins in the offices of several senators. Twelve soon returned to the atrium, where they formed a circle around a banner reading "Undocumented and Unafraid." Refusing to be moved, the students were arrested by Capitol Police, as were nine others who had stayed put in the offices of Sen. John McCain and Majority Leader Harry Reid.
Less than two miles away, a similar protest by a separate but allied group was taking place at Lafayette Square in front of the White House. These students went a step further. Openly announcing their immigration status and giving their full names just across the Mall from Immigration and Customs Enforcement headquarters, they forced a difficult choice upon ICE officials.
Take no action, and ICE would undermine the law. But come down hard by deporting the students, many of them still teenagers, and it would risk drawing overwhelming public outcry.
These individuals—plus several hundred more high school and college students of illegal status—had come to the capital to call for passage of the floundering Dream Act. Dream, the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act, co-sponsored by 36 senators, including Dick Durbin (D., Ill.) and Richard Lugar (R., Ind.), would offer temporary residency to students who arrived in the U.S. illegally as minors if they attend college. It would grant them permanent residency upon graduating.
Agreed! -blast him hard and blast him repeatedly -for even considering such an illegitimate scam...
They want to lose every seat they can this November.
I wonder what RINOs will be helping him?
Repubs need to oppose this, fillibuster if needed, and demand a bill with just troup funding on it.
raise your hand if you think Hairy Screed is tweeting. He probably doesn’t even know how to use a computer.
The EMOcrats MUST be eradicated.
Yes. That would be fine. I want to see Fancy Nancy cry. CRY!
