Amnesty update, Lindsey Graham.
Sen. Graham Says President Obama’s Proclaimed ‘Unwavering’ Commitment to Immigration Reform; ‘Doesn’t Pass the Smell Test’
Mar. 15, 2010 Jake Tapper
On Thursday President Obama met with Sens. Chuck Schumer, D-NY, and Lindsey Graham, R-SC, who are working on a bipartisan immigration reform bill. Afterwards, the president said his commitment to resolving the issue is “unwavering.”
On “This Week” Sunday, Graham took issue with that,
“The idea that the president has;been unwavering on immigration doesn’t really pass the smell test,” Graham said. “One line in the State of the Union that was unnoticeable is not; ‘unwavering.’ A hastily called meeting Thursday because of a rally next weekend is not ‘unwavering,’ is CYA.”
Graham said that “unwavering is sending two Cabinet; members over to the House and the Senate two hours a day for two months; That’s what President Bush did. President Obama has not been unwavering on immigration reform. He has pretty much ignored it because; he has been consumed by health care.”
Graham called Schumer a “great partner” and said the two would soon release a document “about our way forward on immigration.”
“President Obama: lead,” Graham said. “You write an...immigration reform bill. You do the heavy lifting. You put together a comprehensive immigration reform package. You bring it to the Senate and House and see how many Democrat and Republican supporters you can get. All you have done is talk about what we should do, now is the time to lead.”

I don’t trust Lindsey Graham, he is a slippery dude that talks out of both sides of his mouth!
But this number isnt high enough for Dem Cong Gutierrez and his 92 co-sponsors. Their Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill includes a provision called recapture that will add up all the supposedly unused work visas since 1992 and issue them immediately.
This is a complete fraud, as all unused work visas are rolled over to the family reunification category the next year as it is.
Gutierrez' Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill will create 100,000 visas from countries that send the most illegal immigrants every year. According to the State Department, this will mean 550,000 new foreign workers.
AND GET THIS Mexico is the staging area for Third World and other illegals preparing to violate our borders. The Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill rewards Mexico b/c they calculatedly promote illegal immigration.
=======================================
Gutierrez' bill will make it much easier for more illegal aliens to break in. Under the Bill, to prove they have jobs and were in the country BEFORE Congress passed amnesty, illegals are allowed to use stolen ID's, fake green cards, and fraudulent SS numbers....... without fear of prosecution.
Mexico facilitates the profitable staging area for global illegals to cross the border. Contrary to Obamas claim that CIR bill will increase border security, it does just the opposite.........
<> it guts successful enforcement measures,
<>limits raids on illegal immigrants,
<> prohibits use of troops on the border,
<> replaces E-Verify used to ensure employers hire legal American workers,
<> overturns all state and local US laws that crackdown on illegal immigration,
<> abolishes 287(g) that allows local L/E and federal authorities to apprehend criminal illegals.
And where do you draw the line, pendejo?? You want our country overrun, if it isn’t already? Let Mexico have a civil war or revolution as they did 100 years ago. The US either stays one country or it falls.
Well, I see that at least one Spanish speaker has familiarized you with a word that is no doubt apt to your condition. I'm nothing if not civil, so please don't converse with me if you lack the discipline or upbringing to do the same.
