An interview with Tavis Smiley in 2005 on health care. He must work for whatshisname.

It makes me furious when these foreigners come here and want to “reform” our country. Why don’t they reform their own. This guy is a socialist, and India wasn’t socialist enough for him, I guess.

“building a new economy for shared prosperity and expanding our democracy”
Sounds like a guy ginning up his courage to try and take a larger slice of my pie. I kept buying over the last couple years when things were bad.
Any socialist who wants to pull back a bloody stump can try.

Yep, he's a little acorn. A community organizer type just like whatshisname

Bet his name's on the visitor list at the White House.

I think it might be the straw...etc. Coming to a head during the health care debacle, a new “stimulus” bill (Dirty Harry’s ‘jobs bill’), and while the EPA is plotting to take over the energy sector of our country. Oh, and the KSM trial in New York. A harmonic convergence, as it were.

This guy is a socialist

Easiest way to make a living, be a parasite. We the tax payer are the blood they suck on daily under the guise of helping the poorest of the poor.

IMO they are the scum of the earth.

Yeah, well, how about this. To quote a president let’s be “fair.”

Did you see this little tidbit at your link??

SEIU right smack dab in the middle of this.

This line is interesting...”SEIU ULTCW (United Long Term Care Workers)”.....so old & disabled folks can look forward to being cared for by people who won’t speak their language??

By Joaquin Guerra, originally posted on the SEIU blog.

On Saturday, over 400 community members, clergy, students and SEIU (Service Employees International Union) members crammed into Los Angeles offices of SEIU ULTCW (United Long Term Care Workers) for a Community Accountability and Planning Session on Immigration Reform.

Congressman Xavier Becerra and SEIU ULTCW Trustee Laphonza Butler were in attendance, hearing the stories, fears, and hopes of many in the crowd on why we need Immigration Reform.

Laphonza Butler noted:

“People are hurting. Real lives are at stake. Among our members and in our communities. We cannot rest until we get comprehensive immigration reform. Its an issue for all of us, regardless of race, cultural differences or economic status.”

Congressman Becerra followed saying:

“I stand with you. I stand ready to take this issue forward. I feel it on a personal level and as a representative for what is right for our communities and our economy”.

Organized in conjunction with local partners CHIRLA and others members of the Reform Immigration FOR America coalition, this event was the first in a series of engagements with elected leaders.

Working closely with Reform Immigration FOR America (RI4A), SEIU will play a leading role to ensure the March 21 event is a huge success.

As the largest union of immigrants in the nation, it will be particularly critical that we turnout our members-those who are immigrants and those who are not-to ensure that the message resonates with Congressional leaders and the broader American public.

For a slideshow of the event on SEIU’s blog.

Seems the Immigration service might do well to converge on Washington DC during this time — I bet they’ll find tons of IA’s just ready to be deported...Sure they’ll be there too...Right...

Yeah, I’ll bet Secretary Napolitano will be all over that. But it would be a good question to ask at her next press conference, wouldn’t it?

He’s right about one thing: he uses the word “broken” five times.
But in a sense he doesn’t intend. We are broke. That doesn’t stop the statist mentality, however, from thinking there remains an endless supply of sugar-milk available from Uncle Sam’s teat, e.g. see the 1 billion dollar—for starters—embassy Barry plans to build in Britain.
Hard to believe it will be 4 years from May 1st, 2006 when they first marched demanding the entitlements of citizens, and we told them to either go to hell or back to Mexico.
If Barry wants to open the amnesty can again, we’ll give him a real hiding. Americans are in no mood for any more of his foolishness.

MSM WILL cover this so-called “march.” Even if only a hundred paid performers show up.

It will be on the morning shows, the mid-day breaks and for two or three days afterwards with a full analysis and the leftist goals and talking points covered over and over and over . . . in the most sympathetic manner.

Any chance that this has been on Drudge or Rush? Wish I had the money to put this on a billboard in front of the Congressional offices!

One possible way to limit illegal immigration, and money going to Mexico to support their corrupt government would be to highly tax any money transfers through Western Union (and any other money transfers - from the USA - to Mexico, plus tax major, any monies being converted from the dollar to the Peso.)

But, then, it wouldn’t show the ‘goodness of our hearts’, would it?
