Hispanics blame Rahm for immigrant ban

Hispanic lawmakers say an old adversary, White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, has his fingerprints all over a push to prohibit illegal immigrants from buying health insurance plans in a new market for people who don’t get insurance through their employers.

“A forensic study would show it all leads back to Rahm Emanuel and the White House,” said Illinois Democratic Rep. Luis Gutierrez, a member of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus who worked with Emanuel when the president’s top aide was in the House.

“This analysis is inaccurate,” said a White House aide who had been shown the comments made by Hispanic lawmakers.

The health care bill passed by the House earlier this month would prevent illegal immigrants from getting subsidies to buy insurance, but they would be permitted to buy plans from the exchange with their own money. The Senate bill would cut off that option.

It’s like pinching the tails of cats while they drink milk. A fight quickly ensues among themselves (so I’ve heard). We should be using their own lies against them. And slipping new lies into their circles. They have to know they lie, thus, they as well can’t trust each other too far. It’s only business. Nothing personal.

I can’t begin to tell you how much I loath Gutierrez. This is a case of the enemy of my enemy is my friend. All I can say is go Rahm.

You and me both. It's bad enough that they're here stealing identities and money, sucking off the American taxpayer, closing emergency rooms by using them for primary care and not paying, spreading diseases long eradicated-and some new ones into the bargain..

Then they have the sheer arrogance to demand that they be given the same rights and privileges-no, even greater rights and privileges-than American citizens and taxpayers.

As much as the scummy illegals, I despise all those in government and business who've made them believe that they be so arrogant. Illegals in the streets of America flying the flag of Mexico, besmirching the American flag, and demanding things when all they have coming is a swift kick over the border-whast a country we live in.

Why are they bitching about it? There won’t be any “illegals” anymore after amnesty.
