Immigrants swarm Carl Rove's home, pound on windows, demand support for DREAM act.

WASHINGTON, March 28 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Hundreds of grassroots leaders representing National People's Action (NPA) are paying a visit to the home of President Bush (news - web sites)'s Senior Policy Advisor Karl Rove on Sunday, March 28, because he refused to meet with them to discuss the rights of immigrant youth.

NPA and immigrant rights' leaders want the White House to support the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act (DREAM Act). It would grant access to instate tuition for children of immigrants whose families have been in the county at least five years and paid taxes for three. The DREAM Act has 62 co-sponsors and the White House is standing in the way of it being brought to a vote this year.

NPA Leaders plan to arrive at Rove's house, located at 4925 Weaver Terrace, N.W., in Washington around 4 p.m. "We paid our way to come to Washington, D.C., to talk to Rove, and he wouldn't listen," said Tomasa Fonseca, an educator from Marshalltown, Iowa. "So we came to his house to ask him to support the dreams of our youth."

It is estimated that 50,000 to 65,000 undocumented students graduate from high school in the United States each year. Upon graduation these youth cannot work legally, nor can they qualify for in-state tuition at universities because they aren't considered residents.

Recently, the Bush administration came out in support of a guest worker plan, which would allow immigrant workers temporary residency for a maximum of six years. NPA leaders believe that Bush's plan will divide hard working immigrant families. The DREAM Act, on the other hand, is an example of positive immigration reform that would give immigrant youth the opportunity to realize the American Dream by becoming workers, tax payers and positive community leaders.

"We are here today to send a strong message to the Bush administration," said Emira Palacios, NPA Co-Chairperson. "We are telling them that if they want the Hispanic vote, they must give us the DREAM Act."

National People's Action is a 33-year-old multi-racial/ethnic, inter-generational non-partisan coalition of hundreds of local community organizations that volunteer their time to make communities throughout the United States safer, healthier and more stable environments.

Besides if you are going to try to sell someone something, even an idea; you are not suppose to walk on their lawn.

The two leaders who are key figures appear to be Emira Palacios and Inez Killingsworth, because they look like the people who secured NPA school buses full of 11 year-old kids to be used as human shields this weekend. Palacios and Killingsworth are employees of schools in Wichita and Cleveland. Let their employers know what they've been doing with taxpayer funds and the children entrusted to their care. If their employers don't care, move up the chain one step at a time.

Ms. Palacios is not only one of the leaders of National People's Action, the group that attacked Mr. Rove and his family in his home, Ms. Palacios is an employee of Cloud Elementary School in Wichita, Kansas. What's more, her co-chair at National People's Action, Ms. Inez Killingsworth, is an employee of Alexander Hamilton Middle School in Cleveland, Ohio.

It appears from this news article that Ms. Palacios and Ms. Killingsworth appropriated school buses and students from their respective schools. What's more, employees responsible for their students' safety appear to have purposefully placed these students into a violent and unpredictable situation, even encouraging them to form a mob and commit crimes against a person in his own home.

And they have threatened to do it again.

Ask the people responsible for Ms. Palacios and Ms. Killingsworth whether their school districts will continue to use taxpayer money to support political goon squads that attack people in their homes!

Ms. Palacios' Cloud Elementary School is located in District 6 of Wichita, Kansas. The Principal of the school is Ms. Carla Smith, and you can contact her by e-mail at csmith@usd259.net. The Board of Education member responsible for Cloud Elementary and Ms. Palacios is Mr. Lynn Rogers, and you can contact him by e-mail at lynnwrogers@sbcglobal.net.

Ms. Killingsworth's Alexander Hamilton Middle School is located in Cleveland, Ohio. The Principal of the school is Mr. Hiawatha Shivers, and he may actually be complicit in the attack (given his involvement with these activist organizations), but you can contact him at (216) 561-3880. The Chairwoman on the Cleveland Board of Education is Margaret Hopkins, and you can contact her at (216) 361-8254. However, given the politically charged nature of Cleveland education, it may be more fruitful to contact the State Superintendent for Education, Dr. Susan Zellman, at (877) 644-6338.

Rove opened the can of worms with his/GW's illegal amnesty talk.

Yep, sure did.

I hope he has that mob in his yard seven days a week demanding their "rights".

LOL, I love it! Let Rove see what it feels like to be swarmed with illegals. Not so great is it, huh Karl? LOL

I hope the next batch is one thousand strong and hits Crawford when Dubya is there. Then again, he'll just capitulate to their demands so maybe that's not a good idea.

Time for the United States to build "Hadrian's Wall" from the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of Baja! Time to start placing help wanted ads in German newspapers for experienced fence installers willing to relocate to the American Southwest!

Future Republican voters spontaneously gather in Karl Rove's yard to express their gratitude for his amnesty proposal.

Enjoy it Karl, you've earned it.

Did they strew dirty diapers and other debris all over the property? Were any fences cut?

This is just a preview of things to come in America.

It was however quite amusing to see Rove come face to face with his own Frankenstein Monster. A well-deserved and understandable reaction to all the pandering Bush/Rove have engaged in to appease the Illegal Alien Lobby and their constituents. "More, More, we want More"!

Illegal aliens are now invading our nations capital and terrorizing American citizens in an effort to have their "demands" met.

Meanwhile not a single one of them is arrested.

Aye, that does give sober men pause.
