La Raza has an article today stating that neither the Graham amnesty nor the CIR/ASAP in the house are GOOD enough....here’s the proof that the more the US gives, the more they demand.

We Don’t Want Just Any Immigration Reform

It is a smart move for 0 to push imigration reform to take the heat off Obamacare. Illegal immigration is the one issue that can rip the anti Obama coalition apart. In 2008 Every candidate but McCain adopted a no-tollerence policy on illegal immigration, conservatism was rejected by the GOP primary voters in favor of...a new Washington tone. Kinda like in 2000. Unfortunately that message couldn't beat Hopey-Changey with moderate voters. Hardcore anti-illegal immigration voters who wouldn't vote for McCain can look forward to the Obama Amnesty.

In June of 06, Speaker Hastert and Majority Leader Boehner announced they would not compromise with the Senate version of the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006 even though the bill had passed the Senate and House. In Nov they lost their leadership positions. Just prior to the 2006 elections the Congress passed, and Bush signed, a border fence and ID reform. In every Mexican border state the GOP lost at least one (anti-illegal) congressmen, and the rats lost none. The lesson of the 2006 immigration debate was trying to placate hardcore anti-illegal wing will cost you elections. It's a lesson we should have aleady learned after the CA GOP was reduced to a flacid joke in the wake of Prop 187. The loss of Latino votes who voted for Bush in 2004 was reflected in the defeat of Graf, Hayworth, Hostettler, DeLay, Pambo, Bonilla, Gilcrist, Harris, Santorum, and other conservative Republicans.

Obamnesty is coming soon unless Obama wants the issue in 2012. I have no preference about which leach steals my money, illegal or citizen. You are welcome to condemn only foreign thieves.
