Video just being released:

"We will be creating a governing coalition for the long term, not just for an election cycle."

At the America's Future Now! conference in Washington, DC on June 2, 2009, SEIU International Executive Vice President Eliseo Medina addressed attendees on why comprehensive immigration reform is an important issue for the progressive community to support, and how progressives can forge common ground on an immigration reform strategy.

This has to be fought hard but it is not new that the democrat party wants to bring in more immigrants to vote democrat. The democrat party and boss Tweed set up programs to meet the Irish and other incoming immigrants at the boat with a hot meal and party workers to register them all as democrat voters.

“This is why I could never understand the positions of people like George W. Bush and John McCain on the subject of immigration.”

They’re open borders, one worlders more than they are Republicans. It’s why Bush could go to Africa and “pledge” billions of dollars of American taxpayers’ money for AIDS programs—welfare without borders.

People focus on the increasing birth numbers the amnesty can be stopped, its important to cut programs providing welfare,and all the programs that are increasing the growth of these parasites. Put pressure on your local and state officials.

They're both progressives.

“”We will be creating a governing coalition for the long term, not just for an election cycle.””

Wake up people! Obama saved ‘immigration reform’ for his final shot in his pitiful speech last night and he needs John McCain to accomplish this! It’s NOT immigration reform..it is AMNESTY. Obama/McCain and the media will never admit it is amnesty, so it’s up to us.

Go J.D. Hayworth!

Even most progressives are against amnesty, when it’s actually called what it is.

“... 55,322 criminal aliens were arrested a total of at least 459,614 times, averaging over eight arrests per alien. The Department of Justice expressed its surprise at the ‘extremely high’ rate of re-arrests for criminal aliens when it found that that 73 criminal aliens in a study group were arrested a total of 429 times.”

...quoting a Government Accounting Office (GAO) study.

Reflect on those numbers for just a minute.
This GAO study is only counting the number of arrests! And that should bring two questions immediately to mind:

How many actual crimes did these 55,322 criminal aliens actually commit?

How is it even conceivable that each of these illegal aliens could be arrested on average a total of almost nine times?

To at least partially answer the second question, you only need to look at so-called “sanctuary cities.”

Sanctuary cities are localities across the United States where liberal mayors and local legislators have instituted policies that prohibit law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration agents and prohibit them from even questioning the immigration status of anyone they arrest.

But to add more insult to injury, many American cities even allow illegal aliens to obtain free health care, food stamps and a whole assortment of government goodies without having their immigration status questioned.

Does this explain why EVP Medina was dispatched to a San Diego local?
