ALIEN BILL DEFIES PUBLIC WILL (Lonsberry)
boblonsberry.com ^ | 06/18/07 | Bob Lonsberry

It's not even about illegal aliens anymore. It's about the relationship between the government and the people.

It's about who wears the pants in the family.

And right now, the president and a whole bunch of others are confused about that. See, they think they're in charge. They think it's their country.

They think they're going to tell us what to do.

Well, they've got another think coming. This time they've got a fight on their hands.

The background is illegal immigration and the years of treasonously incompetent government which have allowed it to turn into the biggest threat to our country and its future. It takes some doing for an issue to rival militant Islam as a danger to the United States, but illegal immigration does.

And that is completely the fault of the federal government. Stretching back to the late 1980s, and accelerating to light speed under George W. Bush and the Republican Congress, government negligence turned a blind eye to border security and the flood of illegal aliens into the country. Instead of dealing with the problem, the government facilitated it. Instead of being rounded up and deported, illegal aliens were guaranteed an ever-larger pool of government services.

The United States became Mexico's welfare and medical system and the federal government did absolutely nothing to protect the interests or territorial integrity of the nation. As cultural dilution and antagonism became rampant, the government was uncaring and impotent. It was national suicide by governmental neglect.

American wages were suppressed, American taxes were raided, American communities were endangered, American values were suppressed, American culture was spat upon. Entire communities were lost to illegal newcomers who were invaders, not immigrants. A centuries-old American model of immigration was thrown out for a divisive new pattern which has already effectively lost the United States sovereignty over portions of its own territory.

We face cultural and financial bankruptcy because the president and Congress failed to uphold their oaths of office. They have ignored the rule of law by refusing to enforce the written law. We have a border, we have immigration laws, and the federal government has ignored them both.

And only after years of complaint and rising public upset did the government begin to do anything. But even then it was mostly manipulation for political gain. It has been a scripted dance in which the people have demanded and the politicians have manipulated and in the end they get our dollars and our votes and we get the back of their hand. And the illegal immigration problem festers into malignancy while they twiddle their thumbs.

Now there is a bill.

Now, they tell us, is the time to act. And their bill is the only thing that can be acted upon. Negotiated in secret, amended in secret, demanded in public. Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up. It's time to pull the wool over our eyes and they're impatient, afraid that delay will lead to scrutiny and defeat.

In the name of helping us, they are about to kill us.

And a tiny group of senators, in league with the president, have agreed to ramrod this through. And to defuse the nation's roaring disapproval they are taking a tone of authority and power their offices do not provide them.

The president who is sure one more of his stammering speeches will convince the nation to change its mind. The Democrat senator who is essentially calling the American people racists. The Republican senator who is going to “do something” about talk radio, the only place political correctness and government intimidation have not yet completely choked out the voice of the people. All are miffed that the people have not rolled over and obediently accepted the superior enlightenment of the Washington fat cats.

And that's what brings us to today's fight. Not just to stop an immigration bill that is poison to our national interests, but to knock down the politicians whose arrogance has presumed they could cram down the throats of average Americans a piece of legislation that every measurement of public sentiment shows they don't want.

They said “Yes,” we said “No,” now they have raised their voices and furrowed their brows and pointed their fingers and said “Yes” again. It's as if they are the masters and we are the servants and they have reminded us to know our place.

Well, the fact is we do know our place.

We are at the top of the political food chain. We are the people the Preamble is talking about. We are the United States of America – they aren't. It is supposed to be government for, of and by the people, not imposed on the people.

The job of every member of Congress is to represent the wishes of the people of his state or district. Period. It is not to impose a will, or coerce an opinion, it is to do what the people want.

And the people don't want this immigration bill.

Not by a damn sight.

And the president and Congress who do not honor that wish have don't need a lesson just in immigration policy, they need a lesson in American democracy.

And they are about to get it.

Secure the border. Make it impenetrable. Shut off the influx of illegal aliens. Begin cleaning up the mess in our schools, jails, hospitals and streets caused by illegal aliens. Actively seek and deport illegal aliens and their families, particularly those involved with welfare and crime. Change the 14th Amendment to get rid of anchor babies. Passionately promote a national program of culture and language education and assimilation.

Then, after a couple of years, talk about legalization and pathways.

But secure the border first and foremost.

And actively take down every candidate and party that pushes forward this asinine immigration bill.

As bad as the GOP has been - the Dems will be FAR worse.

While that may be true, only one party at a time can be defeated. So, the one that has to go down first is the one that occupies the oval office and is so blatant about disregarding the people. Replace all Republicans with Democrats in Congress and one in the oval office. Don't cast a single vote for the Republicans. That will put the fear of God in those SOBs.

How much worse can it be with Democrats in full control compared to the farce that exists now. They won't do too much more damage because they'll be too busy being at each other's throats for the plunder. At the next election cycle, vet the Republican candidates and then put (vote) them back in office.

I'll get flamed and it will probably come from those that are all talk and no show. People that keep doing the same thing over and over yet expect different results. You've got to learn to "let go".

I’m not flaming you, but I’ve read your tagline. Is it true? Where did you get the information. I would like to read it so I can debunk a couple of people who think the bill is ok. Thank you.

.

US Representative Steve King’s website has press release letters with various info

I believe I have 3 of them cloned as copied webpages

Half murders by illegal aliens

Half killed by drunk illegal aliens

Steve King’s sources are the FBI and GAO

Anyone who thinks the bill is OK is *related to Bush (*I am - But I’m not buying this BS)

Tony Snow was attempting to “snow” Sean Hannity live on talk radio a few seconds ago

Sean is not buying the “We have to do it all together or....”

Ike deported 1 million illegal aliens in the 50s and went after the crooked employers of illegals

Slap the crooks in jail - don’t hit them with a token fine

Don’t be upset if the Kool-Aid drinkers are not converted

Get some new friends

They are not your friends

[My taglines are always true]

Thanks for the ping Seadog. The ‘no extension on Medicare’ signup really brings the point home to you as to the illegals!!
