Reid: Obama/McCain Agreement on Immigration ( AMNESTY )

President-elect Barack Obama and his former general election rival, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz), have come to an agreement on immigration, Senate Majority leader Harry Reid told the Detroit Free Press in a recent interview. Reid said the two standard-bearers have agreed to move forward on immigration legislation during Obama's White House tenure. "On immigration, there's been an agreement between Obama and McCain to move forward on that," Reidsaid when how Congress would handle immigration and healthcare with expanded Democratic majorities and Obama in the White House. Early on in their general election campaign, both McCain and Obama pledged to enact sweeping immigration reforms. McCain attempted to pass a massive immigration bill during the last Congress, forging alliances with such heavyweights as Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) and President Bush. McCain proposed granting a pathway to citizenship for illegal resident aliens and ramping up security efforts along the U.S./Mexico border. The effort failed. When asked if immigration reform would cause "as much of a fight" in Congress the next time it comes up, Reid cited McCain as a key GOP ally who could enable Democrats to enact reforms. "We've got McCain and we've got a few others. I don't expect much of a fight at all," Reid said. The Detroit Free Press posted Reid's interview to its website Sunday.

Not that I'm defending McCain's position on immigration here but let's face the facts about who is most likely to provide amnesty and why. Obama, Pelosi, and Reid (the three blind mice), know full well that legalization will provide a whole new underclass that will be indebted to the federal government to take care of them. This dependence will provide millions of additional votes to rat candidates at all levels of government. That's what amnesty is about and that's why it's going to happen under their watch. McCain's position is meaningless in the overall scope of things at this point.

The final surrender of American sovereignty to Mexico. If we were going to surrender to someone, why couldn’t it have been to a country that at least has some accomplishments in its resume, instead of to a third-world toilet populated by miscreants like Mexico?

[raybbr]

We are going to get over 15 million invaders declared fellow countrymen.

It galls me to no end.

[Las Vegas Ron]

American’s will continue to fight the CFR/OBL for the sovereignty and security of our country.

That in and of itself is an amazing statement.

That the American people have to engage Congress to protect our Nation's security and sovereignty is quite telling.

Somewhere, the tree of Liberty is calling and the words are getting louder and clearer.

Wrong romney never paased gay marriage!

You are correct. However, he did sign gov't healthcare into law. That is enough to disqualify him.

[restornu]

you forget every one had to pay their own way there was no free lunch Mitt made it affordable by removing some goverment red tape and the poor received the same assistance as the system we have now which is a good system.

McCain is a POS...

I that coming way before the erection, er, election...

The RNC helped the Left route the primaries to the liberal states and open primary states first just for this reason.

The pervert marriage thing didn’t work out for them, but either way, the country has been betrayed.

[nowheretohide]

Big deal! Bush/McCain/Reid were in agreement and it didn’t pass.

[org.whodat]

Ya all should be happy McCain and smooching Huckabee got Romney knocked out of the race...

Sure ,Willard and his illegal gardeners. Buy a clue Willard is as liberal as the other two, if not more so.

Yeah and that is why Mass is asking for a bailout from the federal gov't. This story is about how costs are rising and how higher unemployment will probably destroy the system.

Healthcare cost increases

[restornu]

Your credibility is a joke.....LOL

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

FWIW, all of his voicemailboxes are full. Washington, tempe, tucson, and phoenix.

OH REALLY?!!

I don't know what Reid, Kennedy, McCain, and the rest of their ilk stand to gain by pushing this thru, but they are in for the fight of their lives.

This Country will not tolerate the actions of a few dictators who won't do the will of the people who elected them!
