Why not? What do they have to lose? Theyve already pissed away independents and re-energized conservatives thanks to ObamaCare. Might as well use next year to check as many boxes left on their agenda as they can before they take their beating. Amnesty, cap-and-trade, transferring Gitmo detainees to the U.S.: Pour it on and hope that progressives and Latinos will react by turning out in numbers just high enough to keep the House in Democratic hands. Even if it backfires, how bad can the damage be? They lose 35 seats instead of 30?
In fact, this may help them pass ObamaCare next month. What other way is there to read this except as a signal to Blue Dogs and Harry Reid, whom Pelosi expects to take the lead on this that The Ones fully prepared to sacrifice them on the altar of his liberal policy wishlist? Now they can grit their teeth, vote yes on whatever he wants them to, and fall on their swords nobly next November. Well miss you, Dingy.

Voila. After Napolitano and Obama get Amnesty passed in the middle of the night, terrorists already here illegally or terrorists who walk into our nation and claim they've been here all along can walk our streets as citizens and won't have to go through all the trouble of using airplanes to commit acts of terror. They'll have democrats to thank for opening the floodgates of hell to Americans. Those working at convenience stores or gas stations (for example) were doing the jobs Americans just wouldn't do after all.......
Believe it or not, I think many LEGAL, VOTING Latinos don’t want amnesty because they see it as just more competition for the PIE!

There are many frightening things about amnesty. One is that the Fed has no clue how many illegals there are in this country.
Expect a mad dash of millions more when Amnesty is close to getting passed. By the time the gov gets organized, there will be 20 million more.
What are they going to say, no, go home?
The thing is, IF, the Democrats don’t take a beating in 2010 we are really screwed. They won’t have even slight hesitation to pass their agenda.
Don’t blame me. I voted for amnesty McCain.
It is a lot more than 12 million!
1) Keep illegals hopeful so they participate in the census.
2) Since many Mexican immigrants return home for the holiday, the libs want to make sure they RETURN to the US.
3) Obama campaigned on pushing amnesty his first year in office, so the House bill technically implies this has occurred.
Don’t stop with the illegals give Amnesty to all in jail also, whats the diffrence? sicking...hurry 2012
“...hurry 2012.”
This country might not make it to 2012.
Just in time for Obamacare. Step by step is the agenda.
Read Matthew Bracken’s latest book.
I will be surprised if the democrats actually run with this. After the firestorm caused and is being caused by health care dont think they really want to get into this in an election year. Pelosi is on record as saying it wont start in the house, the senate will have to act first. Nasty Nan has learned a lesson.
Here’s my question - when is somebody going to photoshop an Obama “Gringo de Mexico” bill?
It would be hard to outdo bush on loss of sovereignty and violation of federal immigration laws, but osama could do it.
Simply more proof it is a one-party system - open communism or stealth communism.
you may be right what took 200 years of hard work obama is wreaking us in a year...pray 4sure
We need to man the poles at all levels, checking picture ID’s as well as other necessary info to be allowed to vote. If we sleep they will pass this one by us with ease
