Democrat response to being shellacked in the midterms: Get more voters through amnesty for illegals

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Rusty Weiss (via Robert Stacy McCain) bluntly analyzes the push for amnesty in the current lame-duck session:

This past election cycle, the American people marched to the polls with a clear-cut message for their officials in Washington -- stop. Stop the rise of massive government. Stop developing policy behind closed doors, through backroom deals. And stop this anti-American agenda. The results were a "shellacking" for the party in power.
Despite the clarity of voice with which the people spoke on November 2nd, the Democrats' response indicates that they did not get the message. Despite troubling job uncertainty, and an extension of the Bush tax cuts on the table, Democrats are pushing what would seemingly be a low-priority issue: immigration legislation.

President Obama recently met with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus to discuss passage of the DREAM Act (Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors). The act, which Investor's Business Daily describes quite simply as "an amnesty bill," would open a path to citizenship for illegal immigrant students. Worse, it is being viewed as a "down payment" to more widespread amnesty measures.

But why would progressives push such legislation during a lame-duck session? Because the public is clamoring for illegal alien amnesty? No. Because they intend to spit in the face of the American people once again? Yes.

Rather than responding to the midterm election results by actually listening to the message of the American people, Democrats have decided the appropriate response is to add millions of voters who will vote for them.

Conservative columnist Michelle Malkin refers to the DREAM Act as "a 2.1 million future Democrat voter recruitment drive" and as just another part of the progressive plan to "redraw the political map and secure a permanent ruling majority." But that number could easily expand to upwards of 6 million over the next decade, according to a GOP report.

Sound a little too conspiratorial? Not so much ...

Take the time to read the entire piece ..., and learn about Mi Familia Vota, a group that works in conjunction with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), voter fraud, Eliseo Medina - a man with a dangerous immigration mindset, and more.
