IMMIGRATION'S BIG BUSINESS (Senate no longer represents American citizens)
NY POST ^ | 4/16/06 | EDITORIALS

Posted on 04/16/2006 4:02:38 AM PDT by Liz

THE ISSUE: Tightened immigration control and fraudulent means to amnesty. ("Immigration-Fraud Boom," By Abby Wisse Schachter, PostOpinion, April 10).

**** .....the process to get a green card and citizenship...... isn't as cumbersome as that of some other nations. If prospective U.S. citizens don't want to follow this process, they can either stay home or return to their birthplace. It's as simple as that. Cleveland, Ohio

**** ......if the pro-amnesty forces in Washington get their way.......the multitude of illegal aliens in America will simply overload the already overloaded U.S. immigration system. Just the thought that the pro-amnesty senators and President Bush would even consider amnesty shows how dangerously out of touch they are with the workings of their own government and, more importantly, with the lives of average Americans. The Bronx

**** The Senate obviously no longer represents the American citizen. The illegal-alien situation is beyond what we are able to endure. Our social infrastructure, medical system and prison system are overwhelmed. If our senators think that a $1,000 fine will make things right for an illegal, why do they think that Americans should pay many times that amount in taxes? Calabash, N.C.

The story is a real truth, The United States Senate no longer supports the American People nor does it support the voters who sent them there. They have become like the Senate of Rome before the Republic fell, worried about their own power and royal standing rather than the United States. The 17th Amendment has assured that we will have a royal anti-american Senate and it should be repealed immediately. We have very few Americans in the US Senate and we need to repeal the 17th Amendment so the state houses will again have the power to send representatives of the people to the US Senate.

The US Senate is responsible for the attack of 9/11 and the other terrorist attacks since they are the ones who drew the line in the sand and did not let the intelligence agencies talk to each other on what was going to happen. They have proved to be anti-Americans who are only interested in keeping their royal positions and care less what happens to the American people or the United States.

REPEAL THE 17TH AMENDMENT!

Emailed to them, but govt entities move very slowly, will they be there to make arrests on May 1, will they go after the organizers or will they finally go after the illegal alien perps.

The true intent of the so-called guest workers doing the jobs Americans won't do is really unknown.

If given the opportunity to enter legally and if placed on a watch list they wouldn't enter at all.

EXCERPT........things are moving rapidly in the direction of the immigration restrictionists.

Once again we see the muddying of the difference between legal and illegal immigration. If anything the illegal alien issue has shown Americans are sympathetic towards legal immigrants, but despise the lawbreaking of illegal aliens.

... Americans are a bunch of suckers who cannot see past the smoke and mirrors, and that we would sit still for their abhorent immigration amnesty bill.

Unfortunately you just described about 30% of the public. Not a majority, yet, but the NEA is working on that.

"..so I can boycott the next day"

Why would you not make that a permanent boycott?

Your post bears repeating. The 17th amendment wounded federalism. It made the Senate more vulnerable to special interest groups and removed the voice of the states from the federal government. Repealing the 17th amendment would be the first step towards restoring the system that the Founding Fathers designed and that was broken in 1913 by the 17th amendment. (Repealing the 17th amendment would also restore an important part of the checks and balances envisioned in the US Constitution)

Nice to know a bunch of lettuce pickers and hamburger flippers are as the sign says, "indigenous---the only owners of this continent." That oughta make for interesting political discourse.

The US Senate represents the 100 US Senators.

Anyone that believes differently is delusional.

The Senate has become our very own House of Lords.

I hope the Founding Fathers are spinning. Thanks a lot, guys.

It is just the right time for Republicans to have several very good black candidates, for it is blacks with a 50% unemployment rate in some cities who lose out to illegals.

Hmmmmmm......maybe not.

The whole idea of "immigration" now wears the face of the abhorrent Mexican flag-waving invaders.

Americans are getting sick of all this "hyphenization" of the political process by people who clearly want us to think they are primarily loyal to the foreign government that bred them.....the USA comes last with these hyphenated types.

Real Americans don't use hyphens.

Let's flood our politicians in DC with American Flags. Millions of them. I'm going out Monday and buying flags for McCain, the Pres, etc. Small flags with a note attached, "PROCTECT OUR SOVREINTY" or "PROTECT AMERICA'S BORDERS" or "YOU TOOK AN OATH TO UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION - JUST DO IT."

FLOOD THEM WITH AMERICAN FLAGS.

Did you read where she is supporting Bob Casey---the PA DIM pro-life candidate?

The President has said repeatedly that he is AGAINST amnesty. What do these people need, a smack on the head to get them to pay attention?
