Biden: Amnesty for 11 Million Illegals ‘Granting Them the Dignity & Respect They Deserve’
CNS News ^ | May 9, 2013 | Penny Starr

Vice President Joe Biden said Wednesday that passing an immigration reform law that would give the estimated 11 million people in the country illegally a pathway to citizenship would be “granting them the dignity and respect they deserve.”

Speaking at the Conference on the Americas on Wednesday in Washington, D.C., Biden told attendees from countries throughout the Western Hemisphere that every nation has to make “tough choices.”

“In the United States, it means reforming our immigration system and 11 million undocumented men, women and children being able to come out of the shadows and be full participants in American life,” Biden said. “Imagine that - the dignity.

“My father would say, ‘it’s all about dignity,” Biden said. “Granting them the dignity and respect they deserve.”

Biden said not doing so would be disrespectful to the people living throughout the Americas....

” Based on that logic, setting bank robbers, burglars, forgers and muggers free with the money they stole would be “granting them the dignity and respect they deserve” wouldn’t it? “

Yep, I don’t see a distinction either

FUJB. Like the dignity and respect they show our country? 0bama's goal is not only to acquire millions of new Democrat voters with the stoke of his pen, but to OBFUSCATE THE RULE OF LAW AND TO SUBVERT AMERICAN TRADITIONS BY PROMOTING NON-ASSIMILATION.

Which laws can Americans break and be rewarded with praise, goodies, prizes and incentives by government?

This is a uniquely Democrat/Liberal disease, believing that criminals are somehow due the same "respect and dignity" that they have themsleves chosen to turn their backs on by electing to become criminals.

There is no dignity, or honor, or respect in being a criminal. And those who pretend that there is or should be are just enablers who encourage criminal behavior in others. They are no different from the criminal element they engender with their ignorant pandering.

We as a society cannot afford to draw any distinction between the criminal aliens who are destroyng what was once our uniquely American society and those who give them aid or succor.

They all must be done away with for America to return to her legacy greatness and manifest destiny.

"granting them the dignity and respect they deserve..."

Just what did they do to earn that "dignity and respect"? I mean - besides breaking our laws?

Or is Biden implying that, just by being inhabitants of Latin America, they deserve U.S. citizenship?

To: I want the USA back

They want Mexicans voting for Democrats more than anything. This is beyond a typical Obama power play, it’s a broad axe stroke directed squarely at the GOP’s neck. Boehner was right, Obama Is trying To “Annihilate The Republican Party”. The GOP needs to change the narrative and quick but with the media controlled by the democrats, that’s easier said than done.

They deserve the same amount of respect they have for our immigration laws and the taxpayers whose tax dollars are being used to support them. Zero.

Now we owe them? Build the fence, enforce e-verify, and make illegal entry a misdemeanor. Prosecute identity theft, based on e-verify rejections.

Give it a few years, and see what happens.
