Obama Is Back On The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bandwagon

Having solved all the other problems the nation faces, it’s apparently time to push shamnesty again. And he wants a civil debate

President Obama is going to Texas on Tuesday to give an immigration speech in El Paso before raising money for his reelection in Austin. After he speaks at two Democratic National Committee events in Austin, one of which is open to just a print pool reporter, Obama will fly back to Washington, arriving early Wednesday morning.

“In recent weeks the President has met with and heard from leaders and stakeholders from diverse sectors including faith, business, law enforcement officials, current and former elected officials and others about the need to fix the broken immigration system, and why it matters to the American economy and will allow us to better use our national security and law enforcement resources,” the White House said in a statement sent to reporters under the condition that it be withheld until 6 a.m. “The President wants to have a civil and constructive debate on this issue.”.

In other words, if you oppose giving illegal aliens a pathway to citizenship, you’re a big meanie and a raaaaacist. Furthermore, in another Politico article which features a picture that attempts to make it look like Obama is holding winged angels

President Barack Obama heads to Texas Tuesday toting a pledge to jump-start work on a comprehensive immigration bill — a long-awaited, never-attained goal of a Hispanic community that is crucial to Obama’s hopes of winning key southwestern states in 2012.

Are they cheering his newfound commitment to the goal? Hardly.

Many top Hispanic activists say Obama’s commitment to a bill is welcomed, but too little, too late, and they’d rather he put just as much effort into actions he can do with the stroke of his pen — such as slowing the deportations of certain illegal immigrants.

“We all understand the importance of the legislative process and that we need a bipartisan bill in the long run, but that will take a long time and given the gridlock in Washington, has an uncertain payoff,” Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) said Monday. “Immigrant communities need help now, our system is broken now, and the president can do something about it now.”

Are you really surprised that illegal immigrant advocates, including a sitting US Congressman, are pushing an end run around the legislative body, the one that is supposed to make laws? Illegals have little to no respect for US laws to start with. Same with Gutierrez.

Essentially, this little speech, given in the disputed border town of Chamizal, allows Obama to pretend this trip is United States’ business, so he can use Air Force 1 and not pay for it, rather than what it really is: a purely campaign one.

    Congress became irrelevant long ago. Right after they seceded their third of ruling power to unelected departmental bureaucrats.

    EPA is the biggest dealer of laws now. It decides on its own if it wants to follow Congress’ laws, or make up laws on its own.

    Immigration will be no different. There are laws on the books calling for the arrest and deportation of illegals. Yet, cities, states, bureaucrats and elected representatives act on their own, against the rule of law and enact amnesty.

    Cities enact sanctuaries for illegals and prevent law enforcement officers from enforcing the laws.

    I do not see Congress doing anything to support or erode immigration laws. I see the Executive branch, from the feds to the cities, enacting their own versions.

    Taxpayer must take their Politicians to task whether federal or State, by calling their offices as soon as possible at Senate—202-224–3121/ House—202-225–3121 or locate these lawmakers in your phone directory blue pages. The TEA PARTY will nurture new candidates for the 2012 Election. The TEA PARTY will give no leeway to any form of Immigration Reform—AMNESTY. The TEA PARTY is determined stop the drain of taxpayers’ money, which includes unfair taxes to support the instant citizenship of babies, through entering America illegally to foster welfare advantage. The TEA PARTY will rescind Chain Migration, which is a very large billion dollar expenditure, if sponsors don’t honor financial support for immediate family members. Legislators have a duty to mandate E-Verify, Secure Communities and 287G and make it impossible for illegal foreigners to get employment, or even get a handhold in America.

    The TEA PARTY will dismantle Sanctuary City policies, the educational dream Act and unseat all pro-illegal immigrant Lawmakers, Governors, Mayors and those involved in this travesty. The second revolution has begun by THE TEA PARTY that will condemn any more free giveaways to illegal aliens. The American People are the Tea Party, comprising of every legal nationality and race. You should join this splinter party from the wilting RINO Republicans, who with Democrats are eroding this countries greatness. Highly skilled workers should be given immediate special entry visas, who have positions in reputable companies; these top of the cream individuals, will cost taxpayers nothing. Currently however, some plausible 20 million foreign aliens are indigent and replaced by American-legal resident low educated, minimum wage labor who should receive absolute priority.
    YOU! THE AMERICAN PEOPLE OUT THERE ARE THE TEA PARTY AND UNITED, WE HAVE ALL THE POWER AGAINST BOTH DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS. WE WILL STOP THE INCESSANT SPENDING. THEY WILL CUT GOVERNMENT AND RID OURSELVES OF ALL THE FEDERAL AGENCIES, WHICH SHOULD BE ADMINISTERED BY THE 50 STATES. WE WILL CUT THE 14.5 TRILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT. WE WILL DRILL FOR OIL IN AMERICA AND ESCAPE FOREIGN EXPENSES. WE WILL RENEGOTIATE THE UNFAIR TRADE TREATIES WITH CHINA, AND OTHER FOREIGN COUNTIES. CUT ALL TAX SUBSIDIES FOR OIL, ETHANOL AND THOUSANDS MORE INDUSTRIAL ENTITIES. WE WILL BUILD THE REAL BORDER FENCE.
