Obama Moves to Give Illegal Immigrants Path to Citizenship
Submitted by DeepDiveAdmin on Jun 25, 2009
As if he didn't already have enough on his plate, this week President Obama began campaigning for a bill that would offer a direct path for illegal immigrants to achieve full U.S. citizenship. Central to the debate over the bill is a financial question: will allowing illegal immigrants to become citizens be a boom or bust for the U.S. economy?

A bunch. Just a bunch a bunch. I want everyone to be an American. I like it so much, I want to give it to all my friends and relatives. Open the borders fully, let everyone come and experience the greatness that is the US.
If our borers are not secured, you will get your wish. By most accounts, if Illegal Immigration isn't stopped we will have an unsustainable population of over 500 million or more by 2045. We will be a third world country and the American dream will be over and Ms. Pelosi will be correct when she said, if this bill doesn't pass 500 million people will lose their jobs .
your info.
If you are too dumb to find it you need help.
You post chain letters as arguments.
You make up numbers, and when I ask you to source them, you insult me.
And I'm sure you're just recommending yourself merrily along.

Since you can't find anything yourself.
I'll summarize.
There's an old guy standing in front of a Constitution graphic saying that we should be ashamed because someone called America cowards. Apparently, passing a spending bill and saying "You're all little girls, America" is the same thing according to this man.
The government is creating amnesty programs, apparently, while ignoring people who don't like that sort of thing.
See, this is the funny thing, this is the paradox of this particular rhetorical trick. "WHEN THESE MEN DEFY YOU, THEY MOCK YOU! THEY CALL YOU STUPID, AMERICA. THEY CALL YOU WEAK. AND YOU LET THEM DO IT, BECAUSE YOU ARE STUPID AND WEAK IF YOU DON'T GET ANGRY!"
Apparently we're being taxed without being represented. Just like England did. So... congress is a myth, according to this man. Elections are a myth.
The old guy is actually shaking with rage at this point. I changed my mind, you should watch this. It's like Sam the Eagle, the muppet. Except sadder.
He's saying that the problem of illegal immigration was caused by government. I suppose, if you take a really, really scaled back view, government passed laws making certain types of immigration illegal, so they're responsible for making it illegal. The US government is not responsible for, say, Mexico being there. Maybe it was during Mexican-American war.
I'll summarize by saying that none of your statistics were addressed by this video, Virgil.
"Buy a gun. You'll need it." Meaning what, Virgil?
After a bit of searching, I found out the old guy's name was Bob Basso, who is an actor who also does motivational speeches. His website is lacking, so it looks like he could use some money . I'll advertise him for free, out of the goodness of my heart.

Because Bob Basso needs to eat. Or at least afford more Thomas Paine wigs.
I have no idea as to the Author of this but it is a…..
Great explanation.
Subject: Let's Say I Break Into Your House!!!!
A lady wrote the best letter in the Editorials in ages!!!
It explains things better than all
the baloney you hear on TV.
Her point:
Recently large demonstrations have taken place
across the country protesting the fact that Congress
is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration .
Certain people are angry that
the US might protect its own borders,
might make it harder to sneak into this country and,
once here, to stay indefinitely.
Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.
Let's say I break into your house.
Let's say that when you discover me in your house,
you insist that I leave.
But I say, 'No! I like it here. It's better than my house.
I've made all the beds and washed the dishes
and did the laundry and swept the floors.
I've done all the things you don't like to do.
I'm hard-working and honest
(except for when I broke into your house).
ACCORDING TO THE PROTESTERS:
You are Required to let me stay in your house
You are Required to feed me
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family
(my husband will do all of your yard work because
he is also hard-working and honest, except for that
breaking in part).
If you try to call the police or force me out,
I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs
that proclaim my RIGHT to be there.
It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do,
and I'm just trying to better myself.
I'm a hard-working and honest, person, except for well,
you know, I did break into your house
And what a deal it is for me!!!
I live in your house, contributing only a
fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of cold,uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and bigoted behavior.
Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you learn MY LANGUAGE!!! so you can communicate with me.
Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?!
Only in America .
If you agree, pass it on ( in English ).
Share it if you see the value of it.
If not blow it off.........
along with your future Social Security funds, and a lot of other things.
your house. It's a country. I get the analogy but it's weak in my opinion. A better analogy, again in my opinion, would be:
Hey, you broke into my condominium complex. Not into any particular condo, but the complex as a whole. So damn, now I have to consider the opinions of everyone that live in this complex. And damn, if I don't like it you will protest and appeal to others in the complex trying to gain ground. And damn, now you people are going to want to use the pool, and the volleyball court, and probably the gym too. Damn damn damn. It's mine mine mine. Now, I know that you are going to pay rent on your condo in one way or another, just like everyone else here, one way or another. And you are most likely going to get a job like the other tenants. But it's mine damnit, go away.
The far left doesn't represent the whole of America, or as you put it, the expensive condo complex. Just because the far left has a majority seating in this phase of the American experiment doesn't mean all's free and fair for the illegals. People object to this nonsense, and I can guarantee you these same people will be thinking about this issue if it goes through come next voting session. There are ways to America citizenship, and riding on the back of a jackass across the border isn't one of them, unless of course you're the far left for some bizarre reason. But they also think the temperature rises because cows burp too much.
