A first in Northwest Indiana: Illegal immigrant sets sights on attending college

But Vega, who overcame several obstacles to attain her own college degree, has hope -- and a plan. It starts the next day.

The Real Republicans in the US House have a plan too. It starts by killing the Rat/RINO senate amnesty bill.

Yep helping Vincente get his dream while my kids have to pay through the nose and be subject to all kinds of picky rules like where they live and ACT scores.

Dream act for those who do not deserve.

This post is dire need of a barf alert. Another friggin' sob story about our wonderful "immigrants"

[Prince Charles]

Exactly. All of my relatives who went to college have huge outstanding loans that they have to repay, unlike these illegal aliens.

I've never seen such a disconnect between the people and the numbskulls in the senate.

Note to self.

Throw a call into ICE first thing Tuesday morning and mention this restaraunt in Hobart.

Yep. They all have hard luck stories to tell; like we suckers who have to pay the bills haven't ever had a bad day in our lives?

[Prince Charles]

Bingo!

One of my sons is working on a doctorate and his outstanding balance is around $120,000.

Thats not counting the number of free ride scholarships he earned in competitions and of course loans that will never be paid back from mom and dad.

[Prince Charles]

I know exactly what you mean.

You have to feel for the citizens who are being displaced by the illegal aliens now invading our colleges. Nothing like flushing the American dream for some Americans.

[Prince Charles]

The campus commies have invented a pretty good scam for themselves: get the gummint to finance their hate speech thru all these illegals.

Any other Hoosier remember the 21st Century Scholar program? Free ride to any of the state's colleges, so long as you managed a C average in high school, no mininum SAT or ACT scores, member of underrepresented race mandatory?

[Prince Charles]

I can't say that I have; I'm a recent transplant from Crook county, Ill. (Best move I've ever made in my life).

[ncountylee]

Watched the democrats and RINOs literally cackle as the placed onerous clause after clause into this monstrosity.

Felt physically ill and had to turn C-span off.

dream act? NIGHTMARE for TAXPAYING PARENTS!!!!!

Ditch "dream act" and shove it Congress!

I think it was Berrum on the line the last time I called H-P tech support.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Exactly. PUKEMAO!

[OKIEDOC]

Many FReepers have posted complaining about my obsession with this Shamnesty bill.

But like you I was physically ill at my stomach watching the rape of the American majority.

This was the Democrats demanding their way and many RINOs capitulating against those who sent them to the big Senate dance.

Will I forget what these bastards did to American?

No, I will never forget and plan on reminding anyone within earshot or keyboard range just what these arrogant @$$holes lead by McCaniac and Kennedy did to America.

I have no respect at all for the RINOs because they pretend to be one thing to the voters and when they get into office do another.

[OKIEDOC]

Friday I received a call asking my Opinion on a number of issues.

When it came to the Shamnesty bill I told the man to tell the Senate they were the height of arrogance.

If the Shamnesty bill passes in its present form then we are definitely on the wrong track.

Just my lowly opinion.

Immigrating to the USA gives them an undeserved and instant pay raise of 1000%. I have no damn sympathy for him and his parents that cut to the head of the line, who gamed the system. Screw 'em. People in other counties are waiting 5-10 years just to get here legally, just to live and work here, never mind citizenship which everyone must wait for! And I would rather have those people (they speak English and have education) than the hordes streaming out of the failed nations to our South
