The dream act is a socialist democrat dream come true. And a nightmare for liberty minded Americans. The dream act solves no problems. Amnesty solves no problems. The border will not be enforced and instead will be flung wide open.
We do not have jobs for Senator Graham's "eleven million" illegal aliens already here and their offspring nor the other eleven or twelve million he's not counting and their offspring and all their relatives that will be following. We cannot afford the welfare, foodstamps, housing, education, healthcare, EITC, etc, that they demand. And the flood across the borders will be impossible to stop once they are accepted here with open arms.
And they'll vote largely for the democrats. Republicans will never win another election. It's a democrat dream come true.
Hold fast to the rule of law. Damn the RINOs!! Enforce the borders!!
In April of last year, I wrote an article entitled Governments Rot when their Citizens let them.Britain’s culture has become no less multiculturally devalued than that of the United States. Venezuela, Cuba, and many others never, at least in recent memory, enjoyed cultures conducive to freedom and democracy. Ditto many countries in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, plus some of the countries they colonized. Mexico? Hardly a role model for the United States; I didn’t learn much about Mexican history or culture half a century ago in school, and I doubt that many young people in Mexico learn much today about the history or culture of the United States. Few are likely to develop cultural attitudes in contemporary Mexico compatible with life in the United States.There are several failed states whose discouraged citizens are coming to the United States — some for freedom, some for jobs, some to mooch and some to make the United States increasingly resemble their countries of origin. However, due to proximity we seem to receive more from Mexico than elsewhere and I very much doubt that the majority of them, generally uneducated, with no skills to sell beyond stoop labor and unable to speak or even to understand English, have significant knowledge of our history or even what the phrases “Constitutional Government” and “Rule of Law, not Rule of Men” mean. Never having lived where such notions are respected and understood, it’s difficult to appreciate them until a long time after transplantation. It’s good that some of them are socially conservative, but more than that is needed: respect for the supremacy of our Constitution and our laws. That seems quite uncommon, particularly among “differently documented” aliens of all stripes. It takes more than a brief and unlawful stay for it to develop. Even a few years of lawful stay under properly enacted amnesty is probably inadequate. While an Hispanic outreach might enlarge Republican rolls, I fear that attracting them would require giving up on much that conservatives hold dear.
Even if otherwise a good idea, and I do not think it is, pandering to Hispanics to get their vote it quite unlikely to get their votes for a conservative party. As observed at Power Line,
If Republicans are losing elections because of the way Hispanics vote, the solution is not to create through legislation a significantly larger Hispanic vote. Suppose the last amnesty hadn’t occurred? Republicans wouldn’t be wringing their hands now about the difficulties of winning elections given the size of the Hispanic vote.A second amnesty would, before long, end Republican chances of winning elections as a conservative party, and minimize the number of elections Republicans win at all.
In a perfect world, they would all be tossed out of the country, period. We owe them nothing.
The problem has been allowed to fester for far, far too long.
Boehner needs to be put out to pasture. Not suitable for stud service. No gonads.
Terrorists have come across the border. If I could be sure it would happen, I would trade one Dream Act for truely sealed borders.
JimRob I love you but on this one the cause is lost. It was lost years ago when nobody did anything about the problem and millions poured in illegally.
Deporting 12 plus million people is just not going to happen. It is impossible for many reasons.
Yep. He’s detrimental for our side.
A Tea Party patriot must challenge him for speaker.
Eric Cantor is just as bad. He and his wife are part of the Washington social circuit.
Just say no - Boehner must go.
Just enforce the law. Secure the borders. No amnesty! No special treatment for people who are here illegally!
They do need special treatment of a sort. That “special” treatment criminals get.
BTTT!
Completely agree.
I have friends telling me well, we’ve just got to play this game if we ever want another Republican president. I’m about ready to go ballistic.
carefully calibrated NWO BUSH opportunism at work. They took the post-election panic, paid off Hannity & Pags (AM HOSTS) to start slutting for the Hispanic vote. After Americans took such a blow on fraud election & Islamocommie victory. This family needs to be exiled or in Houston made to LIVE AMONGST all their illegal alien pets in SW Houston instead of Tanglewood.
I agree with you, Jim. Once they are granted rights, the dems will dictate to us all. Conservatives have to pull together.. also we have to stop looking for perfection candidates. Everyone makes little mistakes..as long as they don’t lose core convictions, I can forgive. Right now, people are running scared due to the media making it look as though, the republicans are done. Not so. Conservatism in business when implemented works well every time. I would like to see the borders closed and the US to enforce the laws. It’s just a matter of time for a terror attack.

Hear ye hear ye!
People do not realize how much DREAM Act Illegal Alien Amnesy will cost them....it will be our tax dollars giving Illegal Aliens free and reduced college tuition and benefits
And we still have people claiming Marco Rubio is a “Conservative”. Marco Rubio is the biggest proponent of DREAM ACT Illegal Alien Amnesty in the Senate...he is no conservative.
Supporting politicians who push Illegal Alien Amnesty only makes it easier for them to push Illegal Alien Amnesty (and DREAM Act)
Sorry for the double post...
The problem is, the voters said on Tuesday they want amnesty... along with abortion on demand, government-paid contraception, high taxes, homo “marriage,” obamaphones, EBT cards, high welfare, and - most of all - Obamacare.
How are we to deny the will of the people? They want socialism.
Elections have consequences. Big ones.
Jim, I predict the Pubbies will not only support it, but push it.. they are willing to sell their souls and this country to win control..
Boehner and the eRINO's need a history lesson, among other things.
Well, that’s why FR is here and why sites like this are needed now more than ever.
WE ARE THE RESISTANCE!!
Thanks!
