One Week to Go: Illegals and the Vote

With one week to go until the most important Midterm Elections in modern history, let’s compare some presidential quotes, shall we?

President John Fitzgerald Kennedy

And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.

 

President Ronald Wilson Reagan

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.  Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged. 
 
President Barack Hussein Obama

If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, ‘We’re going to punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us,’ if they don’t see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it’s going to be harder and that’s why I think it’s so important that people focus on voting on November 2.

I thought this guy was supposed to be The Great Uniter?

In a divisive piece of propaganda waaaay beneath the dignity of his office, President Barack Obama told Hispanic voters to turn their anger and resentment over stalled immigration reform against Republicans on Election Day.

Facing a Political Massacre on November 2nd, a desperate Obama and his party are trying to get Hispanics, a crucial voting bloc in several battleground states, to get up off the couch and vote.

Yesterday, Scooter promised Hispanics that he would push an immigration overhaul after the midterm elections, which, in reality, will be very hard to do, considering the Democrats may lose both Houses.

Bringing up Republicans such as Senator John McCain, who formerly supported an overhaul but now are stressing border security and supporting strict immigration laws like Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration measure, Scooter said:

Those aren’t the kinds of folks who represent our core American values.

What do you mean OUR CORE VALUES, Scooter?

Stumping for Senator Harry “Dinghy Harry” Reid, locked in a dead heat with his Republican opponent, Sharron Angle, Obama warned voters that Ms. Angle “is completely opposed to comprehensive immigration reform.” He also dismissed an ad encouraging Nevada’s Latinos to stay home on Election Day as “cynical.”

Democrats have put forth a number of proposals aimed at overhauling the nation’s immigration laws. But talks floundered after Senator Lindsey Graham, the lone Republican who was working with them on the overhaul, walked away because they wanted to ram cap-and-trade down Americans’ throats with that bill, and RINO Senator Grahamnesty did not want that kind of publicity.

The Justice Department even went so far as to sue an American State, Arizona, over its immigration law, arguing that it interfered with the federal government’s role in enforcing immigration laws, even though Obama’s administration was not enforcing them, endangering Arizona’s citizens. Arizona has appealed a stay imposed by a federal judge.

Comparing the immigration fight to African Americans’ decades-long struggle to gain civil rights, Obama said:

…instead of us giving up, we just have to keep working until it gets done.

One problem, Scooter.  Those African Americans were legal American citizens.  What part of the word illegal, don’t you understand?

Obama proclaimed:

I’m going to keep my promise on immigration reform.

After November 2nd, only if you bypass Congress, Scooter…and I would not put that past you.

Out in America’s West, Illegals have teamed with SEIU to try to undermine the votes of American citizens.  Allow me to acquaint you with Mi Familia, a Latino “social justice” group and Big Labor satellite.  According to discoverthenetworks.org:

  • Run by progressive labor leaders
  • Works to naturalize new citizens, to register new voters, and to use the 2010 Census as a redistributive mechanism

The Mi Familia Vota Education Fund (MFVEF) is an open-borders group that advocatessocial and economic justice.” It maintains offices in Arizona, Colorado and Texas. As a national partner of the Ya Es Hora, Hagase Contar! (“It’s Time, Make Yourself Count!”) campaign, MFVEF works in conjunction with the NALEO Education Fund, the National Council of La Raza, the Service Employees International Union, Univisión Communications, Entravisión Communications, and ImpreMedia to naturalize new citizens, to register voters, and to use the 2010 Census to redistribute wealth and power in the direction of Mexican immigrants. MFVEF is also part of the Center for Community Change’s massive Reform Immigration for America campaign and operates as a prominent member of the We Are America Alliance.

MFVEF identifies the following as its major objectives:

  • “Expanding the electorate through direct, sustainable citizenship, voter registration, census education, GOTV [Get-Out-The-Vote] and issue organizing in key states”;
  • “Forming and supporting key alliances at national, state and local levels to increase civic engagement”;
  • “Providing technical assistance and support to other organizations”; and
  • “Increasing public support for full civic participation for New Americans.”

Our problem is not just out West, however.  America’s Illegal Immigration problem is affecting elections from one coast to the other.

Portland, Maine residents will vote Nov. 2 on a proposal to give legal residents who are not U.S. citizens the right to vote in local elections, joining places like San Francisco and Chicago that have already loosened the rules or are considering it.

Opponents of the measure rightly say that immigrants already have an avenue to cast ballots — by becoming citizens. Allowing noncitizens to vote dilutes the meaning of citizenship, they say, adding that it could lead to fraud and unfairly sway elections.

Exactly right.

Portland resident Barbara Campbell Harvey said:

My primary objection is I don’t think it is right, I don’t think it is just, I don’t think it is fair.

In San Francisco, a ballot question Nov. 2 will ask voters whether they want to allow noncitizens to vote in school board elections if they are the parents, legal guardians or caregivers of children in the school system.

In America, in order to vote one week from today, you must:
 
1.  Be a citizen of the United States of America.
2.  Be a resident of the state in which you are voting.
3.  Be 18 years old.

 

Our Best and brightest have died on battlefields, in lands far, far away, to protect and preserve this right.  Those who have entered this country illegally, as a burglar enters a home, in no way deserve this right.  Period.

 

 
Obama and the Progressives ought to be ashamed of themselves for trying to give away this proprietary right of American citizenry.  But, in their quest to preserve their political power, conscience has taken a backseat to desperation.

    Everything in this blog is disgusting…from Obaka’s devisive hate-speech to nonAmerican groups plotting to take over the country and change its nature to giving noncitizens the right to vote (and I don’t care that it is ‘limited’ to local elections).

    My country is in big trouble
