You Can't Stay on the Fence About Immigration

YOU CAN'T STAY ON THE FENCE ABOUT IMMIGRATION

The bitter battle over the immigration bill has become a legislative minefield in this election year, though it's still unclear whether November will see any heavy political fallout as a result.

To put it mildly, this issue is a thorny wilderness, festering intra-party divisions and brewing voter backlashes. It could inflict additional wounds on George W. Bush's battle-scarred presidency, shrink the GOP's congressional Republican majority and, possibly, hurt some vulnerable Democrats.

Let's slice up some of these pitfalls.

We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

I've seen some comments about Rush, but I've seen posts from some people who seem to be changing directions on this subject along with Rush and a few others... I'll find the Tony Snow link for you.

Interested in some harmless fun?

Wanna give the Conferees a major purgative a day or two before 06-06-06??

Get someone in L. V. to mail to each Conferee a dead fish wrapped in newspaper.

Mailing out from L. V. will make them think the mob did it!

Villaraigosa Opposes English as National Language




LOS ANGELES, CA (KNX)  -- Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has come out against the idea of making English the official national language of the U.S. The proposal has been attached as an amendment to the federal immigration bill.

Villagrigosa says if the measure is strictly enforced, it could result in creating communications problems between people who provide emergency services and those receiving them.

The amendment states, "Unless specifically stated in applicable law, no person has a right, entitlement, or claim to have the government of the United States or any of its officials or representatives act, communicate, perform or provide services, or provide materials in any language other than English.''

The mayor appeared on CNN's "Late Edition" with Wolf Blitzer, offering his support for most of the provisions of the immigration bill adopted last week by the U.S. Senate.

"Well, what it means is you won't be able to communicate with people for badly needed services," said Villaraigosa. "They could be emergency services. They could be services for medical care.''

He also took note of the fact that the Senate has made no provisions to assist immigrants in learning English.

They didn't allocate money so people can learn English. I can tell you that, here in Los Angeles, there are lines, thousands of people waiting to learn English in our adult schools,'' he said.

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said Sunday he doesn't believe the amendment would negate any current laws.

I think I find this the saddest turn of all. I respected him even when I didn't agree all the time, but in the comments on Rush, Dobbs and now this coment.... maybe Rove thought since he was so well liked we'd all drink the koolaid.
