The "New" Amnesty Bill


The NEW Amnesty BillAmnesty For Illegal Aliens On The Way Back To Congress‘Comprehensive’ Immigration Bill That Includes Amnesty.
‘Pathway to Citizenship’ for Illegal Aliens.
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet
*****************************************

The Obama Regime has tapped Senators Charles Shumer D-NY and Lindsey Graham R-SC to create a Comprehensive Immigration Bill. The bill was supposed to have been introduced and passed into law during Obama’s first year in office. But a little thing called “ObamaCare” and “ObamaCare 2.0” got in the way. Not to mention, a recession and, lest we forget -- the near total collapse of the American economic system. So, immigration was pushed back aways.


Well, this week, the President will be meeting with Shumer and Graham for a progress report on the immigration bill they have been working on.


I think we all are aware of what “revised” means to the Obama Regime. Think ObamaCare and ObamaCare 2.0. The latter was supposed to be the revised bill. It was, in fact, the original bill with a couple, or three, Republican suggestions thrown in to make it more palatable to the G OP and the American people. But, as nobody has actually seen a hard copy of the bill, doubt remains that ObamaCare 2.0 even exists.


Now we are to be presented with a “revised” version of The Amnesty Bill dating all the way back to the Bush Administration. Oh, it will be called something other than “The Amnesty Bill.” In fact, they are already referring to it as “The Comprehensive Immigration Bill.” But you and I know it is the same bill, the one we referred to as The Amnesty Bill.


Once again we will be called upon to rally and throw as many roadblocks as we can into the path of The NEW Amnesty Bill before the Obama forces can push the monstrosity through the Congress.


Many months ago Obama answered a reporter’s question concerning so-called “immigration reform” which, translated, means: “Amnesty” for illegal aliens hiding in the US today. Here’s what the President said: “Now, am I going to be able to snap my fingers and get this done? No,” said Obama. “This is going to be difficult; it's going to require bipartisan cooperation. There are going to be demagogues out there who try to suggest that any form of pathway for legalization for those who are already in the United States is unacceptable. And those are fights that I'd have to have if my poll numbers are at 70 or if my poll numbers are at 40. That's just the nature of the U.S. immigration debate. But ultimately, I think the American people want fairness," Obama continued. “And we can create a system in which you have strong border security, we have an orderly process for people to come in, but we're also giving an opportunity for those who are already in the United States to be able to achieve a pathway to citizenship so that they don't have to live in the shadows, and their children and their grandchildren can have a full participation in the United States. So I'm confident we can get it done.” That, dear reader, is the President of the US speaking.


I shouldn’t have to ask this question, but it seems I must. Have you stopped to consider how many millions more will pile onto “the dole” US taxpayers will have to support if this NEW amnesty bill passes? 12 million is a drop in the bucket to the REAL figure, which you are NOT going to hear bandied about by this administration, nor the democrat/progressive/socialists in the Congress.


Just as we believe the REAL unemployment figure is closer to 20% than it is to the 9.7% being reported by the government, and the number of jobs lost last month, we believe, is closer to 50,000 than it is to the 36,000 the government reported, we believe the real figure representing illegal aliens in America today is closer to 36 million than to the 12 million, or so, the government has been reporting.

Obama and the democrats/progressives/socialists must REALLY think the average American is an idiot! Why, they are so disconnected from the reality in America today that they have no idea the odor they get a whiff of every now and again is the tar and feathers being prepared in their honor!
A few of the Congressmen and Senators attending some of the town hall meetings have felt the heat. But not enough - not nearly enough, to put the fear of God into them! A few of our nation’s legislators have seen the handwriting on the wall and have already headed for the exits. They are not waiting for the political blood bath that awaits the Democratic Party this coming November AND the Republican Party, as well, if they do not shape up and listen to what their constituents are asking -- no -- demanding they do on ObamaCare AND on The New Amnesty Bill.


Senator Lindsey Graham, of South Carolina, is in very hot water at home and his chances of surviving a challenge in November are certainly not assured. Graham has buddied around with Senator John McCain far too often and the folks at home are not happy about it – at all! He will be in even hotter water if he even hints at amnesty in the so-called Comprehensive Immigration Bill he and Senator Charles Shumer, of New York, are currently formulating.

It is incredible that Washington seems unable to sense the anger of the average US citizen toward relaxation of the immigration laws, especially toward the Hispanics who are flooding our country and straining our healthcare services, our educational services, and our welfare services to the breaking point? How can Congress and the President not know this? How?

Common sense dictates that they MUST know this. So, why the continued refusal to secure our southern border? Why not return those illegal aliens to Mexico or their country of origin? Instead, the US government is pushing for a law to make those who are already here illegally… legal? You have to wonder if they are nuts!

No, they are not nuts. As we have learned, they just don’t care what you and I think, or want, or NOT want, as the case may be. We don’t count with the current government. They are far smarter than we. They know far better than we what is good for us.There is very little fear of our dissenting votes in Washington, anymore.


The progressive/socialists have managed to secure the votes of the less literate among us in such large numbers as to override our dissenting votes. We warned, months ago, that the progressive/socialists had dispatched armies of “helpers/organizers” into the field to register “new” voters from among those whose livelihood depends on the government check they receive the first of each month. And it worked in 2008!


Finally, consider this: When you add to those legions the millions of illegal aliens who will be voting for the progressive/socialists -- as soon as the Obama Regime pronounces them “legal,” – one can readily see that you and I will be overruled at the ballot box in perpetuity.


If The New Amnesty Bill is passed we will truly lose what little bit of America we currently have left… forever.

  1. But ultimately, I think the American people want fairness," Obama continued.

    Yup, that's precisely WHY Americans oppose this type of legislation. Illegal immigration is by definition UNFAIR. It is unfair to legal immigrants and to the Americans who end up losing jobs to or subsidizing illegal aliens. In the interest of FAIRNESS, illegal aliens should be forced to return home and get to the back of the line at the U.S. embassy. The only AMNESTY I'd support is a repeal of the 3- and 10-year bars to make it easier for illegal aliens who leave to get in line.

  4. This bill is a slap in the face to the many people who have fought so hard to to come to the United States legally. Why are the illegal immigrant rates soaring?? Because they knew that one day, we would vote some dipsh*t into office that would give them all a parachute. I am a second-generation hispanic American, and my grandparents did not jump over the fence like they owned it. These people have some nerve. And to the last poster...Why don't you take advantage of the free education that we the tax-payers fund, and learn proper gramar. Then, when you can read and write, maybe you can try to fill out an application for U.S. citizenship. Then, maybe, after that, you can get a real job, pay taxes and come back on this blog and join us. Until then, quit living off of my dime.

  5. There should be no amnesty to illegals in US . India, Pakistan, European countries and Muslim countries don't have such type of options, whenever they catch any illegal they punish them and this is the right way. These amnesty options encourage the illegal immigration. I know any people who are waiting for amnesty and keep on committing crimes. Definitely there should be no Amnesty bills. This is definitely a slap on the face of who are illegal here. With the news of this Amnesty bill some of my friends who were legal in the US for 10 years have started to become illegal, since they now think being illegal is an easy way to get citizenship in US.

  6. It's obvious that with socialist programs like "ObamaCare and the New Amnesty bill" true American ideals are being trampled on by our "elected" leaders. We began as a Republic and over the years lawmakers have destroyed the Constitution and lost sight of what this country is supposed to be. It's sad when the voices of working Americans who have a true vested interest in this country cannot be heard over the chants of "Give me more, more more." from those on social welfare programs and the voices of those who have not EVER earned the right to have a voice in this great nation.

    When will the true Americans say finally say this is enough!? When will the real Americans wake up step away from their liberal televisions and see that this country is dieing from the inside out? When will they see that Obama and other socialists are turning our great republic into a socialist regime? We are blind and complacent. Maybe just complacent but isn't that worse!? My friends, the time has passed and if we wait any longer to see how it plays out it will be too late! If you don't stand up now you my as well hand over your checks and your guns (remember why we have those! To protect ourselves from political corruption!) WAKE UP, STAND UP, and UNITE!

    How are these socialist programs going to be paid? Maybe I should has with what money are they gong to be paid? Everyone knows.... TAXES!

    How much more can we pay? We opposed excessive British taxation and revolted becoming the great nation we are today! How much more do we need to be taxed before we stand up and scream NO MORE!? I believe in paying for my military, and for helping fellow Americans down on there luck, for homeland security, for science and education. We should ALL refuse to pay for the lazy, the undeserving, and especially the illegals! Only when we ALL stand up at once and refuse will be taken seriously again in Washington. Only when we come together in one united voice and scream to our so called representatives we be heard.

    The United States is a beacon of freedom shining over the entire world. It will be a sad day when that light dies because of complacency from within.

  7. I it's very ridiculous to say that ilegals live off the "tax payers dime" it is logical that when someone is " ilegal" you can't get in to any program available (welfare,medicare,bank account's,get a loan,get a new car, get a drivers liscence, a social security even rent in a lot of cases.(i can go on an on) but if they happen to get a job ( wich is usualy a shitty one) and minumum wage. (if not less than that). they get taxed like everybody else, when they buy food,clothing,gas etc. they are taxed. we all know in america NOBODY gets away with out paying taxes. chances are "ilegal's" make minimum wages there for they probaly make somewhere around 12,000 to 15,000 + witch i know for a fact that you get at least
    1,000 or so, back at the end of the year. most "ilegals" do not make their taxes becasue they are afraid to do them or they don't speak english( wich is most of the cases) ( there is a legal number they can get to pay taxes)so there is no escuse in why undocumented people should not pay taxes) i really doubt that there is an "ilegal" that makes huundreds of thousands of dollars and evades tax pay, or that they go and takes advantage of programs such i mentioned before. if you do not not have insurance you can't be seen in a hospital they usually send you back without medical attetion!( unless youre terrebly hurt.) now dont get me wrong! they are bad people and im shure some of them are ilegally in the country but let's not blame them all. i know a few pwople that are between the ages of 18 to 25 and they are in programs such as medical, welfare, wic,and housing! these people where born in america. i think these people should get to work and leave the sistem alone for the americans that do need to make use of it.what we fail to see is ilegal imigrants do live in the shadows. washing dishes, cleaning somo rich man's house, doing maintance jobs, landscaping ect. so ask your self is it hate that over power us? is it greed? is it fear? i think is ignorance the lack of knowlage to realy know the fact's of why people come to this country ( as we all know this country was formed)) the real question should be. why do they allow it an who? the truth is people are here and it is a big problem..so why can't be part of the solution?
    and stop the hate and discrimination. we are all brothers and sisters.

  8. Yay im all for it hope they pass im white and i would never ever think of discriminating against people who arent from here because first of all this country belonged to the indians and we were all here illegally at one point but we became citizens at one point so wtf is the problem with giving other ppl who arent from here yhe same opportunity that we were given....and im sooooo tired of hearung the jobs are beung stolen yeah im sure they walked up to your asses with a gun and said im gonna take ur job from u come on now how stupid and there wouldnt be so many americans without jobs if the lazy asses wouldve got up and went to get a job instead of depending on welfare n secton 8 and government assistance....n i dont care if ppl agree with me or not u can kiss my ass so have a wonderful day everybody
