DREAM Act is a Dream Come True for Illegal Aliens

The stupid party is at it again! The Senate Judiciary Committee is working on a bill that will allow illegal aliens to pay in-state tuition for college and permit them a level of residency, thus legitimizing their criminal behavior of flagrantly violating our immigration laws. The Republicans are in the lead on this latest effort to destroy our culture and our sovereign integrity.

While 85% of Americans view immigration as a serious problem, the only thing that has prevented President George Bush from granting a general amnesty for illegal aliens was the backlash from 9-11. However, the political elites continue trying to devise a way to undermine American citizens without exposing their traitorous actions. Against the will of the American people, the Republicans are pushing for a modified form of amnesty for illegals, with the help of the donkey party, to paint themselves as a politically correct, multicultural party.

The Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act, which is sponsored by Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), would lift a federal ban that prevents states from allowing illegal aliens to pay in-state tuition for college. Mind you, a number of states have already passed laws allowing illegals to pay in-state tuition, and no doubt the enforcement of the federal law over the state laws is currently in question. In addition, conditional resident status would be granted to illegals under 16 years of age who have lived more than five years in the U.S. and have graduated from high school, or served in the armed forces, or performed community service of some kind. This is a joke.

This is a sleight of hand trick to provide amnesty to illegals, as these teenagers aren’t being punished for their actions, and no doubt neither will their parents be punished. By granting residency status to minors, in turn politicians won’t want to look like ogres by expelling the illegal parents, as the kids will be left without parental authority and could end up wards of the state, or politicians will fear looking like destroyers of families. Once again, the politicians don’t want to hold people accountable for their actions (except the actual citizens of the U.S.) and will put a bigger burden on Americans by flooding our cities with illegals, thus driving down wages, draining our welfare and medical resources, and assuredly raising citizens’ taxes to shore up the depleted resources illegals will drain.

Senator Hatch says, “It will allow these illegal immigrant children the opportunity to not only dream of the infinite possibilities that their futures may hold in the United States, but it will also afford them the opportunity to realize their dreams.” Well, Senator, what about the dreams of American CITIZENS? We want our government to enforce our laws. We want elected officials to honor the oath of office they took and defend our rights as legal citizens. Quite frankly, who cares about the dreams of these criminals? I don’t care about their dreams any more than I do the dreams of a rapist, a murderer or any other criminal that contaminates our land. These people are criminals, hence the term ILLEGAL ALIEN. I’m concerned with the dreams of my children, American citizens, and the dreams of my fellow Americans who are all here legally. You took an oath to protect and defend our rights via your oath of office to uphold the U.S. Constitution.

The long-term damage this DREAM Act will inflict on our country can’t be seen by politicians, because they don’t want to look that far down the road. They are incapable of looking beyond the next election and attempting to appear compassionate. From where I sit, they have no compassion at all. For U.S. citizens that is. The DREAM Act is just another example of how the Republicans and Democrats are two sides of the same coin, and unworthy of support by all decent, honorable American citizens.

Once the genie is out of the bottle, not only will the flood of illegals increase, as more outsiders flock here waiting for the next amnesty, but the Democrats will jump on this and expand the boundaries of the Act to declare anyone who can touch our shores a citizen, qualified to vote, the second they get here. Citizenship will mean nothing.

The Senate Judiciary Committee will continue work on the DREAM Act on October 23rd. People need to let their senators and congressmen know they oppose amnesty in any form for illegals. The door was cracked open once before when Ronald Reagan signed an amnesty bill, which lead to a new flood of illegals. This is throwing the door wide open. Until the feds do their constitutional duty and shut the door, no talk of amnesty should move beyond political pundits, and definitely shouldn’t be taking shape in a bill on Capitol Hill. If this bill passes, we need to throw out of office anyone who votes for it.

What if this happened to you: You grow up being a happy American child, you do pretty well in school despite your parents lack of money and constantly being uprooted every couple of years. When you become a freshman in high school, all your friends want to get their driving permits, so when you ask your parents for the papers needed to get the permit, something terrible happens. Your parents tell you about your “illegal” status in the country and if this isn’t shocking enough, this might be the first time they tell you weren’t even born in this country. You don’t know what to do .Suddenly you are an “illegal,” a criminal and you didn’t even know it.
You can’t try to obtain legal residency because being under 21, you fall under your parents undocumented status, thus are unable to make your status legal. What do you do? Do you go to your country of birth despite having to leave your parents behind, being only 15, not knowing the language, not knowing the culture, not knowing anyone in the country, and most importantly not even remembering ever being in that country? Or do you stay with your parents and the only country you have ever known and hope no one finds out. Anyone who says they choose option one is a liar.
