Why is he not doing things to help those without jobs and instead allowing those taking jobs away from Americans to get a free pass??
Because immigration is more important than jobs.
Health legislation is more important than the economy.
Global warming is more important than jobs.
Get it?
Anything is more important...
As I’ve said for over a year, their blatant arrogance and condescension is owing to the fact that the ace up their sleeve is amnesty.
This has been part of their plan all along.
Moderates and independents, reacting to the anti-Bush and anti-Republican blitzkrieg for 8 years voted the communist into the White House.
They pushed as much communist policy as they could. They kept a good portion of the “emergency” TARP funds aside to spend in Democrat districts for the midterms. But, all the while, they’ve been planning on amnesty to compensate for the backlash-vote they knew to expect.
If socialist medicine and/OR amnesty goes through, we’re done.
For years we have been told that these illegals contributed greatly to our economy. If that were true, we should completely open the borders and all our economic problems would vanish, but I suspect you are more correct in that it has more to do with swelling the dem voter rolls.
I just read the speech that Geert Wilders gave at the British Parliament yesterday. IMMIGRATION needs the brakes put on. His speech can be found here: http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/
There are other reasons to do this as well. For example, it further helps load-up and burden us with entitlements. It sends a welcome message to existing criminaliens, that although you might be inclined to go home now with unemployment passing 12% in some states (CA), please don’t and stay... look, we will make it worth your while to hang on a bit longer. Also, it allows dems to take a short breather from HCR, to stoke fires elsewhere... and then they can return to HCR and stoke it furthur as well.
Since Obama and his co-conspirators claim there are between 12,000,000 to 20,000,000 illegal aliens working in this country I am sure the meeting is to get rid of all Illegal Aliens and replace them with Unemployed AMERICANS.
The Illegals could run to 40,000,000.
This is the most Ignorant, incompetent and useless administration ever in our Government.
These dims are insane!
I’m getting weary of playing “wack a mole” with these Marxists on every issue.
Of course, it’s every illegal’s US Constitutional right to be able to vote for the RAT candidate.
This shoulr read:
Obama will meet with Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York and RINO Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina on Monday.
This needs to be stopped.
Exactly. The idea is to get the Dem base energized. It is like pulling the race card. Every election cycle the Dems raise the issue of the Confederate flag. This is the equivalent. Get the Reps on the record against amnesty and paint them as racists, bigots, and nativists. It also serves to divert and distract from issues like jobs and the growing national debt.
Another Alinsky tactic...keep people in a constant state of ‘unbalanced’ ness...
Yep, go ahead and piss off even more people, Mr. President Zero. The more the better.
I suspect the numbers are significant and if known and publicized would make many on the unemployment rolls very unhappy. Maybe enough to mitigate any votes he gains.
He wants to ram everything threw before we take back the House in November?
He is doing everything BUT concentrating on the deficit and lack of jobs in this country.
“Immigrants and their advocates — promised by then-candidate Obama that he would tackle the issue in his first year as president — have been growing frustrated by the inaction.”
Oh my, they are FRUSTRATED....how sad.
From the LaRaza site....expect this to be the mantra:
Pass Immigration Reform that Will Strengthen the American Economy
Naysayers claim that immigration reform cannot be prioritized when so many economic issues remain unsolved; however, recent studies from progressive and conservative groups alike show that immigration reform would be a boon to the economy. “
