| #4 since the begging of the recession, the number of illegals here has probably fallen, if you presume that Obama's actions have hindered the recovery, you could argue that his administration has been objectively working to decrease illegal immigration (the hotlink is to a pro enforcement org that thinks the number of illegals declined quite a bit in 2008) |

| #3 > Why are we allowing our elites to do this to us? The tax system rewards rent-seekers and punishes self-improvers. |

| #2 More like, Democrats are trying to get amnesty in through the back door. When yet another (remember the first amnesty bill, 1986?) amnesty takes place, and a million or more additional illiterate/semi-literate campesinos swarm into El Norte to get in under the wire between announcement of the bill and passage, the nation's direction toward Mexican-Brazilian style oligarchy will be irreversible. Great republics can and do fall. We are now witnessing the deliberate transformation, by a totally cynical political class and a clueless corporate elite, of a broad-based middle-class democracy into a crony capitalist, statist oligarchy. Who will cry BS on this utterly insane policy of importing another underclass? There is not another left-social democratic party on the planet that would support flooding their nation's low-end labor market with millions of unskilled illiterates. Not in Britain or France or Germany or any other advanced nation. Unthinkable. Why are we allowing our elites to do this to us? |

| #1 Surprise, surprise. Amnesty's a-comin'. Circle November 4, 2010 on your calendar. One of the main conservative talking points against the health care bill was that it would cover illegal immigrants — that’s what led to South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson’s “You lie!” outburst to Obama, who said they were never covered under the bill. Now Republicans say any attempt to ease immigrants into the system would prove the GOP was right. “Earlier this year, the president reassured the American people that illegal immigrants would not be covered by his government takeover of health care,” said Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee. “Now we see what he means. He intends to give millions of illegal immigrants amnesty in order to give them access to America’s health care system. In other words, the president and congressional Democrats are trying to get illegal immigrants into the health care system through the back door.” |
