Bush Immigration Plan Borders On Treason

By Chuck Baldwin

Food For Thought From The Chuck Wagon

January 9, 2003 President George W. Bush wants to give some eight to ten million illegal aliens, most of them from Mexico, legal status. The plan would legalize these aliens as "temporary workers," which would allow them to work freely in the United States without fear of deportation. The plan is so disastrous to our country's well being and so fraught with potential risk to our country's security that the plan should be regarded as bordering treason!

Already, more than ten percent of Mexico's population is living illegally in the United States. If Bush's plan is actually implemented, that percentage would skyrocket. Our southern border is already an open sieve, as millions of Mexicans pour into our country. Bush's amnesty program (and that's exactly what it is, Bush's word games notwithstanding) would only be seen as a green light for millions more to invade our nation.

The financial drain on American taxpayers by these criminals is incalculable. Taxpayers will be paying for their food, health care, Social Security benefits, and education, plus all of the above for their dependents, from now on. Not to mention, the cost of law enforcement and loss of property due to the criminal conduct of these invaders.

Bush's amnesty plan is also a serious slap in the face to those would-be immigrants who are trying to migrate to America legally. There are thousands of decent, hard working people from around the world who are seeking entrance into the United States. Some of these are seeking political asylum. Some are fleeing persecution. Whatever their reasons, they are following the rules and obeying the laws. Now, they must wait and watch as President Bush pushes criminals to the front of the line.

Furthermore, to grant illegal aliens legal status jeopardizes the security of the United States and makes us more vulnerable to terrorism. The very fact that an illegal alien is here proves that he or she cares nothing for America's laws. It demonstrates an intrinsic callousness that dare not be ignored.

Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-CO, rightly said that Bush's plan is "dangerous and unworkable." Investigative Journalist Jon Dougherty also predicts that "sustained high immigration levels from south of the border will continue to pose economic, labor, security, and criminal threats to the United States."

Giving illegal aliens and the corrupt American companies that knowingly accommodate them legitimacy is tantamount to the United States legalizing Al Capone's, or any other gangster's, "underground" enterprises. It is repulsive, disgusting, and unconscionable!

Beyond that, the reason President Bush is attempting to legalize millions of illegal Mexicans seems nothing at all but an undisguised ploy to pick up votes for his reelection. Therefore, it should be obvious to all Americans that this president is willing and eager to put America's future largely in the hands of foreign criminals. Every American should give that thought serious deliberation!

I heard Rep. Tom Tancredo on Dobb's state that Bush's plan is dangerous and I am in agreement. IF by treason the author means that Bush has the betrayed the trust of American who he in fact leads.. then the shoe fits.

[Owen]

What's this? Another conservative who dislikes government action angry that Bush didn't announce a greater magnitude of government enforcement action?

[Veritas01]

this is the most B.S. article i've ever read, and to say bush is bordering on treason is B.S.

[Dr. Marten]

Bump! I'm with you on that.

I have been a Bush supporter for the most part since his election, but this is the straw the broke the camels back.

With moves like this, he will end up like his dad...a one-termer

[Visalia]

the plan should be regarded as bordering treason!

Treason??? Come on. I don't like this crazy plan either, but it does not border on treason. That's just plain nuts.

Bush to Americans: "Read my lips. No new illegals."

[Dr. Marten]

I have read so many people on these threads cry about how Bush has ignored the border problems with mexico and just as many scream about all the illegals in this country, but it seems nobody wants to stand up and criticize President Bush on this?

Oh gee, how quickly people fall into the flock...

[Ann Archy]

What have you liked that Bush has done? Not just the War on Terror.

[putupon]

[Dr. Marten]

"Treason??? Come on. I don't like this crazy plan either, but it does not border on treason. That's just plain nuts."

On one hand I can agree with you, but on the other...what do you call the act of sacrificing the best interest of America in order to gain the votes of a growing illegal population who has the best interests of their own country in mind?

I would throw it into the same Pot as Clintoon-China relations...

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

It's articles such as these -- all hyperventillation and hysterics -- that make me increasingly certain that, in the name of ideological "constancy" and "purity," the extremist fringe of our own party would actually prefer eight years of a Howard Dean presidency, over another four years of Bush. That way, they'd actually have something real to p!ss and moan about... which, in turn, would make them all the happier.

There was some goofy university-sponsored "study," a few months back, claiming that political conservatives were just naturally a little... slower than the rest of the population, overall.

Every time I see one of Chuck Baldwin's little heel-drumming tantrums posted on this site: I can't help but be reminded of that, for some reason.

[Asclepius]

Why do you keep posting this Bald-twit crap?

[breakem]

Already, more than ten percent of Mexico's population is living illegally in the United States.

Damn, is this true?

Mr. Baldwin brings up another good point (of many). I didn't recall President Bush mentioning how this would affect others going through the process legally.

I'll say.

Keep your powder dry.

[Visalia]

Hi, Doc! I just tend to see treason as being more of what we can expect from the Commiecrat Party.

[JohnGalt]

The agenda of the phonycons is now very clear: They will fight an endless debt financed war abroad, and appease the invaders at home.

[Dr. Marten]

I agree with you, and I didnt expect it from Bush.
I guess thats why I feel so disappointed in him.
Disqusted is more like it I guess...
