“But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Today’s despicable Illegal Immigration agreement, conceived in secret and forced upon an unwilling citizenry, decimates everything that Lincoln and our brave soldiers across the decades died for.
May God help us. sigh.
That’s why we lost seats. How can you truly believe we’re serious about the GWOT while the border sits open and folks aren’t being sent out? We have terrorists at our engineering and biochem colleges with Muslim Action Groups and jihad preaching imams. We have those who came here on a visa to go to college (such as the two on the kids school bus in Florida), who registered and hadn’t gone in months.
God forbid if this legislation was brought in the light... who knows what abominations are in there. The public should know... even better, we should vote on it... it’s our tax money that’s been spent and our security at risk.
Trust me, a lot of dems are pissed as well.
How the hell are they paying 5000 when they shouldn’t be here working in the first place?
And what about the stealing ID felonies, can they stay? I’m sure they do... as well as three of the Ft. Dix six and every jihadi that ever crossed Canada and the border.
No wonder they wanted to raise taxes without us voting on it.
Mexicans aren’t the only ones in this country illegal... what’s wrong with them. It must be nice to be oblivious to what’s going on in the world.
All the changes in states on this issue didn’t make a difference to them either.
