The Demonuts would never support a Republican plan ,it would just start the Demonut Propaganda Ball rolling
Wrong. The Democrats are willing to accept legalization without citizenship. When someone like Gutierrez says this, you know the fix is in:
"I don't think this is a good idea because citizenship is important, but I don't think it is a big deal breaker either," Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., a leading congressional advocate for overhauling U.S. immigration law, said in a speech last month. "Right now we have to stop the deportations that are breaking up families. And if we do not get citizenship this year, we will be back next year and the year after that."
Legalization means the formerly illegal immigrants would receive Employment Authorization Documents (EADs, or work cards), legitimate Social Security accounts, drivers licenses, expanded (though still limited) access to welfare, travel documents enabling them to leave and freely reenter the country, eligibility for affirmative-action preferences, and much more. The only thing they wouldnt have is a timetable to apply for citizenship, which means no prospect of eventually being able to vote.
Legalization is forever and the Dems can still use the citizenship issue as a club against Reps. A non-citizenship amnesty will not, in the final analysis, prevent this. Thats because in the real world the amnesty beneficiaries will eventually get green cards, and every Republican lawmaker pushing the idea knows that. Permanent second-class citizenship is politically unsustainable in the United States, and thats not a bad thing. If such a measure were to pass, the Democrats would attack the Republicans relentlessly for imposing a Jim Crow immigration regime, and Republicans (led by todays amnesty-pushers) would quickly fold, possibly delivering green cards to the former illegals even sooner than planned by the Senate bill.
