Super agree!
I liked Rush’s proposal (which of course could never happen):
Let them become “instant citizens” if they are prohibited from voting for 25 years.
Agree and I Dream of a Country where Laws are enforced equally, the Border is secure,the Federal Govt. stays the heck out of my way, a non-Hyphenated America based on the Constitution.... (i could keep going and going)
How about a counter proposal. The Dream Act only applies to military service only. As a long shot, how about an American version of the French Foreign Legion. After 7 years service, you can become a citizen upon discharge. The AFF could be used in all kinds of hot spots that American families would not want to send their own kids, just like the French use it. If you survive or don’t desert, you are given your citizenship.
Sounds like we’ll making more bus trips to D.C.
I so agree
Time to Compromise? Not just no but... HELL NO!
“Elections have consequences”
After that, deport (or execute as appropriate) all those that are in prison, or have a record of any kind. Those that remain should be prohibited from voting for 25 years, required to pay a heightened tax rate (liberals would support that, right?), required to learn English, and also given the option of leaving. I bet most of them would leave. Those that remain after completing all of the above would have the makings of good citizens, I suppose.
YOU get the government YOU deserve...’nuff said.
Jim,
Decades of compromises and Grand Bargains from DC Hacks, past and present,
on both sides have brought this country to t,he brink.
He’ll no to Amnesy and Grand Bargains.
Mexico’s unemployment rate for October - 5.01%. Their highest employment rate for the year has een 5.8%.
Boehner is already writing the recipe for a House disaster in 2014, by urging US Representatives to “go along to get along.”
The Rats have control of the US Senate, so the House has to stop this horrid nonsense.
Do NOT sit on your hands! Make your Representative fully aware that the “Dream Act” in a non-starter NIGHTMARE!
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.
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.
Just say no - Boehner must go.
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.
