RE: Hume

A few weeks ago, I was astonished when Hume claimed that the current comprehensive immigration law was not amnesty. He went on to say the amnesty was not a part of any of the previous comprehensive immigration bills.

We have had thousands of rounds of what is and is not amnesty. ‘They’ have thrown out numerous terms as an attempt to change the perception. Some call it regularization; some call it legalization.

What level of intelligence does it take to see through such smokescreens? Just because the word - amnesty - is not used does not mean that implementation of a bill results in giving illegals a ‘safe haven’.

Amnesty, not matter what you call it, is still amnesty.

Hume and the entire Fox/News Corp seems to have a distinct pro-Latino flavor any more. It would be interesting to know the details of Murdoch’s meeting with Valeria Jarrett a few weeks ago, as the topic was supposedly immigration.

It is terrible, that.

I do not have an answer, except to say I’ve never thought Fox New was conservative, but I do believe they were/are fairer/more fair than any of the other network newsziods.

Even as those who we saw as conservatives advocate amnesty, there are still others on the channel opposed to it. No other network news organization even allows that.

I say that not to sugar-coat it, but there it is.

We need to continue the fight with good arguments as to why amnesty would be a disaster, and concentrate on securing the border (and other ports of entry, which themselves are HUGE sieves) above all things.

“A few weeks ago, I was astonished when Hume claimed that the current comprehensive immigration law was not amnesty. “

We are living George Orwell’s 1984 and Fox is but one department in the Ministry of Truth. It is a little bit more complicated/Nuanced but Brit Hume is a typical RINO Elite. He is well off, is partaking in the shaping of public opinion and that gives his ego a great deal of satisfaction.

Just like we obtain physic satisfaction when someone like McDaniel wins a primary. We are however disappointed when a Rubio appears to double cross us

I was astonished too. I was watching something one day and all of a sudden, Hume had become a “Stepford Wife.” Or pod person. Not only pro IAs, but citing the same ridiculous lines as the rest of the pro-criminals.
