Amnesty would follow Democratic win

"During 2005, the Border Patrol apprehended approximately 1.2 million illegal aliens. Federal law enforcement estimates that 10 percent to 30 percent of illegal aliens are actually apprehended - therefore, in 2005, as many as 4 to 10 million illegal aliens crossed into the United States." - from: "A Line in the Sand: Confronting the Threat at the Southwest Border," a report released by the House Committee on Homeland Security last week.

If we all try very, very hard on our way to the mall or soccer practice, some of us may be able to convince ourselves that "they" will soon - and voluntarily - solve the nationally suicidal crisis caused by America's intentionally unsecured borders and the resulting invasion and colonization of our children's nation.

Some may even be able to accept the ridiculous estimate bandied about that there are only 11 or 12 million illegal aliens in the United States. Or that about half a million illegals enter our nation annually.

Others may stretch some more and go along with the theory constantly promoted by the American president that "there are jobs Americans will not do." Or that anyone who is "just looking for a better life" has some universal civil right to live and work in the U.S. - regardless of the laws broken to get here and do so.

The numbers of Americans who can make that irrational leap are rapidly shrinking, except in Washington and corporate boardrooms.

A 38 page report released by the U. S. House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Investigations last week may put some doubt in even the most ardent "we lasted this long as a nation, everything will be OK eventually" crowd.

For those of us rooted in reality, some news from the congressional report on the Southwest border:

n "Members of Hezbollah have already entered the United States across the Southwest border."

n Of the 1.2 million illegal border crossers apprehended in 2005, only 165,000 were not from Mexico - and 650 of those were from countries with known terrorist activity.

Let's see, it can't be too bad having unsecured borders in a war on terror if we are catching 10 - 30 percent of the potential terrorists illegally entering our homeland. At the worst, only about 1,500 of them made it over our borders last year. Right? Try hard, dear readers.

There can be no harm to American sovereignty if more than 10 percent of Mexico now lives in the U.S., right? And polls in that Third World narco-oligarchy show that more than 40 percent of the remaining population of 106 million would "migrate" here if they could.

The House report estimates that as much as 11 million pounds of cocaine made it into our nation from Mexico last year and states that Mexican drug cartels are the most dangerous criminal enterprise facing American law enforcement.

I told you - we must try hard.

That 1,950-mile border with Mexico that the strongest nation in the world cannot control?

The House report points out that "the Mexican drug cartels wield substantial control over the U.S. - Mexican border." And that they operate with military grade weapons, technology and intelligence. Our own Border Patrol Agents and law enforcement are out-gunned and out-manned.

We are past the five-year mark from the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, wages are going down for low-skilled Americans - if they can get a job without knowledge of the Spanish language - and 90 percent of the drug dealing MS-13 gangs here in Ben Franklin's republic are described by the FBI as being made up of illegal aliens.

Try hard folks, everything will be all right if we can just grant another amnesty. And illegal immigration is only a federal problem.

Knee-jerk radio talk-show hosts will mindlessly wail that for a variety of reasons, it is time for the Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives to go. Nonsense.

As someone who is proudly and firmly not a member of any political party, I must point out that it is the House Republicans, and not enough of the Senate Republicans, who have some apparently "hard-line" idea that we need to enforce our laws and secure our borders.

If we must continually describe ourselves in "hyphenated-American" terms, this "Fed Up-American" views the House GOP as the badly needed third party that represents the majority of Americans.

Let's try hard to realize that if the Democrats take the U.S. House, the McCain-Kennedy-Bush amnesty will be a reality faster than you can say "borderless continent" - in Espanol.
