My. My. My.

We KNEW these precise kinds of American M.S.M. TV stories and news articles were in the works and would be forthcoming.

You can sense that there will be more on the way.

Their subtle propagandistic and editorial objective is of course to get average non-thinking Americans in their Lazy Boys to start to feeeeeeeeeeel a little "guilty" about the nationwide border/immigration/freebies crackdown that is inevitable.

In a sense, the timing, intensity and contents of such an GMA ABC TV story is good as it serves as a clear barometer. in fact, I knew something like this would get out there around this time frame.

Because it is indicative of the progress we HAVE been making on this issue at the local level.

Two or three years ago, such articles and TV segments designed to provoke a (primarily White) guilt complex did not exist, because the pressure was almost non existent on illegals and their supporters, and they more or less had free run of the place. But no. Not now. The PEOPLE have revolted, all the way down to that feller who took down the Mexican flag in Reno the other day. It is growing in intensity, nationwide, and they see it coming like a full steam locomotive. And it scares them. They must act. They must write such text. They must file such stories.

Now that the forces of GOOD are on an unmistakeable roll, it is necessarily important for the liberal/left/media establishment to come out with these slanted pieces.

What will amaze them is that their hope for it to slow down Americans will not even come, it generally will not reverberate. Again, that is going to shock them all ways to Sunday. I know how these social-crusade type assholes think and write for TV and papers.

I have already a nickname for these efforts, as part of the greater "A.B.C.", that is, the "ANTI-BACKLASH CAMPAIGN". You see Reuters, AP, CBS, Washington Post, LA Times now indulging in it in increasing frequency. They all write (and photograph) from the same template. One can sense the tension. They are in for quite a surprise when they see that their Guilt Campaigns fall largely on deaf ears.

Do I have a witness?

Actually, if he’s never been so frightened in his life, why is he here? I doubt that he is the least bit frightened. A little concerned, perhaps that he’ll be deported and have to go to the trouble of illegally crossing again? But frightened? Give me a break.
And no, I’m not inclined to let any of them stay. It may be that we can’t possibly ferret out all of them and send them back, but I do not want to reward anyone for breaking the law. What you reward, you get more of. It works in dog training, and it works in everything else.

We're aren't going far enough in cracking down on illegals. Local and state governments are doing the job the federal government won't do.

I am beyond hating the Limosine Liberals who never live close to the life of those of us driving a 1979 Buick and living on Soc Sec.

Living in NYC and window shopping the poshest stores and eating in restaurants where a glass of water can cost $5, they are totally clueless about the life most Americans work and live every day.

Claire Shipman isn’t fit to walk my dogs. I wouldn’t let her on my property.

Do we still have 12-20 illegal aliens squatting in America?”

I think it is closer to 45-55 million. The 12 million figure has been used FAAAAR too long. They are reproducing like lemmings.

The illegals are still here, therefore the local governments have not gone far enough.

Wow, that puts it in perspective...

Pretty scary huh? Five and a half years. No weekends, no holidays, just 24/7 of constant arrests, fingerprinting, photographing, repatriation paperwork, and busing to borders and airports. Had Bush started such a program on 9/11 they'd just be finishing up and rounding up the stragglers, but no, he dropped the ball bigtime. In just months he'll be kicking back at Kennebunkport, doing the talk show circuit, writing his memoirs, and we'll be up to our eyeballs in foreign nationals.

You raise good points. My statement about letting him and others stay if they met certain conditions was based on them meeting certain minimum standards.

When Senator Coryn of Texas proposed even lower standards during the first amnesty discussion in May, very basic things like excluding gang members and felons, his amendment was voted down by our overlords.

It showed they were in no mood to make even basic concessions to us mere sheeple. By showing their true intentions, I think it woke a lot of sheeple to flood the phone lines during the next big amnesty push.

Yeah.
I don’t think an issue has ever frustrated me quite so much. It is clear they don’t have our best interests at heart, and it is clear that much of the American public is STILL asleep! Otherwise they would be taking to the streets en-mass.
