Geraldo: Republicans 'Would Blame Immigrants for Climate Change' if They Believed in It
newsbusters.org ^ | November 22, 2014 | Randy Hall

Posted on 11/22/2014 2:43:33 PM PST by Tailgunner Joe

During Thursday night's edition of The Kelly File on the Fox News Channel soon after the president announced that he was taking executive action regarding illegal immigration, guest Geraldo Rivera praised Barack Obama for “doing finally the right thing” and blamed Republicans as the reason legislation on the issue has failed to pass Congress.

The senior correspondent for the network declared that “I don't know and I don't care” why Obama took the extreme action more than a month before the newly elected Congress will be sworn in and claimed that the GOP “had it coming” because they blame immigrants for everything, including “climate change if they believed in it.”

Kelly began the segment by playing a video clip of Charles Krauthammer -- another analyst for Fox News -- stating that if Obama “feels so strongly about this, and Scripture dictates this ought to be done, why did he do nothing about this in 2009 and 2010, when he had control of the White House, the House and the Senate, and he could actually have done this Constitutionally by passing legislation?”

When the host asked her guest to respond to that statement, he said: “It's not relevant to me. It really made me angry that he chose to go with ObamaCare rather than immigration reform even though he had told the Latino community and the Asian-American community that immigration reform was his priority.”

Rivera dismissed the fact that the president waited six years to address the issue and asserted:

What matters tonight is he's doing finally the right thing. He may be doing it for awful, base reasons, political reasons. I don't know and I don't care.

I care that he has finally done the right thing for otherwise law-abiding family immigrants who have been here five years or more who have, in every other way, followed the law.

“These are people that are the seeds of the Earth,” he noted. “These are people who make America strong, and I'm glad he's done it.”

Geraldo: Republicans 'Would Blame Immigrants for Climate Change' if They Believed in It

Immigrants from third world countries increase their energy consumption and pollution output by an order of magnitude after they get here. Either being a new rat voter trumps that, or rats don't really believe in the ManBearPig shtick either.

Something has to be done to stop this runaway train named Obama.

If something is not done immediately to stop Obama from abusing his power to sign executive orders, Obama will feel free to sign more executive orders whenever he feels like it: Tomorrow, 6 months from now, Obama will sign new executive orders legalizing another 2,000,000 to 5,000,000 illegals until there won't be anybody left in Mexico and Central America, because they will all be here in the United States because of the "kindness" and pen of President Obama.

Is there any judge or any lawmaker out there who can stop this madman Obama from destroying the United States as we know it? God help us.

Wait until he pardons every “person of color, gay, transgender, revolutionary” and etc. in jail, prison, probation, parole and on trial. Think he won’t?

*****

Geraldo's mother is Jewish. So why doesn't he spend half of his energy on condemning Muslim attacks on innocent Jews in Israel? What a hypocrite.

If our illegal alien problem consisted primarily of Asians, Africans or Europeans Geraldo would never utter a peep about it.

Nice way to take two totally unrelated issues and blend them into a farfetched lie.

Illegal Alien Crime and Violence by the Numbers: We’re All Victims

by Peter B. Gemma, National Executive Committee member

If just car thievery were the main concern, it would be an important problem to address. However, the Office of Immigration Statistics reported that of the 188,382 deportations of illegal aliens in 2011, 23 percent had committed criminal traffic offenses (primarily driving under the influence). Congressman Steve King (R-IA) estimates that illegal alien drunk drivers kill 13 Americans every day — that’s a death toll of 4,745 per year.[4]

The 23 percent criminal traffic offenders figure is only part of the overall picture. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, another 23 percent, more than 43,000 illegal aliens, were convicted of drug offenses. The violent crime category of assault, robbery, sexual assault, and family offenses comes to 12 percent. The non-violent crime grouping of larceny, fraud, and burglary totaled seven percent, and on the list goes — equaling 100 percent of illegal aliens who have been through the criminal justice system and inflicted thousands to millions in cost per alien on the system, for issues having nothing to do with their illegal entry into the country.[5]

the rest of the history

No. Pardon me. That’s an insult to Capone.

I fail to understand why Geraldo is ever on any network, much less on Fox News. He sees the entire world through a racial lens to the detriment of logic.

That describes Hannity's "very good friend", "reverend" Al $harpton too.
