House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday blasted House Republicans for their intention to file a legal brief challenging President Obamas unilateral actions on immigration.
Its ironic that theyre having this vote on St. Patricks Day, Pelosi told a news conference. Last night, we had a celebration of the Irish-American heritage. While I do not have Irish grandparents, I do have Irish grandchildren, and one of them was there at the dinner and we talked about immigration.
Pelosi then turned her attention to Irish citizens who are in the United States illegally: So, and what its about is all the Irish who are here 50,000 who are here who cant even go home for a family funeral because the law would not allow them to come back into the country. They are not here, shall we say, fully documented, and we need to change the law, comprehensive immigration reform.

“Why bring that up? This is about illegal Irish immigrant here today, not 5 or 6 generations ago.”
Sorry, didn’t realize /s was required on that. The post was made in response to another made on the thread that referred to 50,000 deaths in Ireland. Sorry if it touched a chord, or whatever.
Here is an idea that will drive Nan wild. We agree to let the 50,000 Irish stay and 50,000 English speaking non welfare recipient Mexicans if you can find that many. The other 12 million go back. LOL!
Well I was thinking if they all left, the beer and spirits industry would be in big trouble.
Ireland is part of the Visa Waiver program. The Micks just overstayed their 90-day welcome.
Sure they can. They just can’t come back. And what is wrong with that?
“Pelosi Complains: 50,000 Irish in the U.S. Illegally ‘Can’t Even Go Home for a Family Funeral’”
Technically we should JAIL THEM for being here illegally, and only then SEND THEM HOME. But we are nice people - we’ll let them leave...as long as the don’t return.
So, are these Irish illegals walking across the border? Or overstaying visas, or what?
And if they’re here illegally the first time, and go home, why should they be allowed to return illegally a second time?
That’s the kind of Obamentality we’re being forced to embrace.
Instead of deterring the law breaking, we’re supposed to find more ways to help them to break our laws, invade, bankrupt, and destroy us.
Kind makes you want to vote for Trump doesn’t it?
Again—bless your heart. Sorry I got under your skin, obviously. But I’m already bored with you. So kindly refrain from stalking me across threads.
You didn’t get under my skin at all
Still waiting to hear what gone books you’ve read in my field
Trump is going to run these snakes out of America.
