Illegal Alien Protesters Occupy Congressional Office
“Rep. Steve King has told Breitbart News that illegal immigrants attempted to take over his Washington, DC office on Thursday. ‘They openly defy our laws,’ Rep. King exclusively told Breitbart News. ‘It’s the most brazen lobbying I’ve seen since I entered Congress,'” Breitbart News reported.
Buchanan: Whom The Gods Would Destroy . . .
Next year should be a banner year for the GOP, and may yet be […] But if the GOP is favored to hold the House and make gains in the Senate, the long-term prognosis for the party remains grim,” says Pat Buchanan.
“On how to deal with 12 million illegal aliens—send them home or grant them amnesty and a “path to citizenship”—the party’s rancorous division will be starkly visible when the bill reaches the House. But the existential crisis of the GOP, from which it has turned its eyes away since George H.W. Bush, is demography.”
Gang of Eight Tries to Get Cornyn Vote on Amnesty
“Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) is the big prize in the quest for more than 70 votes for immigration reform, but the Gang of Eight is split over whether he’s worth wooing. Cornyn told Republican colleagues at a meeting Wednesday that he would consider making changes to his amendment to bolster the border-security provisions of the Senate bill,” The Hill reported.
Eberle – Are Conservatives Ready to Revolt Over Immigration?
“The Senate has been debating so-called immigration reform for quite a while, and now the House of Representatives is about to get into the action. However, many House conservatives are outwardly voicing their displeasure with House Speaker John Boehner over fears that he may ramrod a bill through the chamber without going through the proper legislative procedures,” says Bobby Eberle.
“Is Boehner in trouble? Is it time for him to go? If the Republicans endorse a bill that doesn’t focus on the REAL problem (border security) and instead panders to the next great voting bloc, we are all in serious trouble. We can’t beat the Democrats with pandering since they can and will always offer more taxpayer-funded handouts. We must stand on principle, and it appears Boehner’s job may be hinging on it.”

One old definition of democracy is RULE BY THR MAJRITY WITH RESPECT FOR THE MINORITY. This definition has now been perverted to read RULE OF THE MINORITY WITH CONTEMPT FOR THE MAJORITY. One of the roots of the problem are the federal courts. It all started when judges stopped being jurists and took on the role of sociologist. The federal judge sees himself as a law giver not one who rules from he law and its intent. Arrogance of their type has rarely been seen in democratic systems.
I absolutely agree with you Melinda. I believe that if illegals in America put the time and effort that they do here in America to reform our laws around them in their own country to reform it’s laws I guarantee their own country would be a lot better place.
If these people act in this rude, aggressive way now how would they act in the future? These are not the type of people who would help further the progress of our country. They are here to take over the country and make it their own. No stinking amnesty for these lawbreaking people. Get smart America and be rid of them!!!
When you give someone an inch, they take a yard, no other country would allow this except America, just to to get votes, you have have enough peoples here in this country and alot of people out of work, America is already the highest crime country in the Western hemisphere, and more people will make it better??????
The “long term prognosis” for the GOP need not be “grim”. They simply have to appeal to more women and working class and stop tilting towards the one percent. Not that they have to become the Democrats, nor should they. But the GOP probably could have an additional 4 or 5 senators at present, if they had not put up candidates that were seen as extremist by a large percentage of voters.
The Democrats realized that they were not going to win with candidates like Mondale and Dukakis so they turned to more centerist candidates like Clinton. As Mr. Eberle says, the GOP can never outpander the Democrats on massive government spending, and making citizens of 12 million illegals who want those programs is counter productive. A lot of liberals and moderates fully agree with a hard line on enforcement.
Reading the paragraph about Rep. King, I was reminded of a video I watched of a pro-illegal march, I believe in New York. A group was protesting against illegal immigration, so the pro illegal crowd surrounded this smaller group, starting throwing things at them. calling them names, giving them the middle finger, and even tearing up their sign that they were displaying. Also I heard of an immigration hearing or meeting, I believe in Birmingham, Al. Whenever a speaker who was against illegal immigration tried to speak, a bunch of pro illegal supporters started chanting and wouldn’t let the person speak. Yes, absolutely this country should pass an amnesty so we can have more high quality people like this living here.
This country has made it so easy for illegals to get their foot in the door – If this was anywhere else and illegals stormed an office to protest rights they don’t have and SHOULD NOT HAVE IF THEY ARE ILLEGAL they would be arrested and deported. Stop bending over America@!
