New amnesty push likely in 07 by Bush, Dems<\/strong><\/p>\n

D.A. King
\nColumnist<\/p>\n

\nFive years into the war on terror, most Americans desperately hoped that 2006 would be \u201cthe year\u201d for solutions to the our national nightmare of intentionally unsecured borders and the resulting illegal immigration crisis. <\/p>\n

For many of us, the dream was that at the minimum, Americans could look forward to the American president and federal government to begin an effort at protection on border security and immigration law enforcement similar to what the Mexican citizens <\/a>still living in Mexico enjoy.<\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t happen. <\/p>\n

According to a report released in late 2006 by the House Committee on Homeland Security <\/a>as many as 4-10 million people crossed into the United States illegally and un-inspected last year. Georgia watched as its population of illegal aliens increased by 114%<\/a>…the highest rate of growth in the nation. <\/p>\n

Now, 2007 is being touted as \u201cthe year\u201d. The word in Washington and corporate boardrooms all over the country is that \u201ccomprehensive reform\u201d – a repeat of the 1986 \u201cone-time\u201d path to citizenship <\/a>for illegal aliens who come mostly from Mexico – must happen before official campaigning begins for the 2008 elections.<\/p>\n

Happy New Year.<\/p>\n

It seems that the party taking power in Congress is more in line with the president\u2019s ideas on how to treat the resentful illegals and the vast black market labor- addicted employers. <\/p>\n

Even as it became clear on election night in November that the Democrats were taking over the House, Tony Snow, the White House Press Secretary, remarked that the election results presented \u201cinteresting opportunities\u201d for \u201ccomprehensive immigration reform\u201d.<\/a><\/p>\n

For something that the \u201cdo-nothing\u201d Congress accomplished, I point to stopping the McCain\/Kennedy\/Bush amnesty of 2006. To the GOP House: Gracias.<\/em><\/p>\n

The solution to the illegal immigration problem coming from Washington can be boiled down to this: Make everybody \u201clegal\u201d. Give them \u2013 again – the path to citizenship they demand, and whatever you do, don\u2019t mention the \u201cA\u201d word. The present voters are on to the amnesty swindle, but hold on, we have millions of potential new voters right in front of us!<\/p>\n

Happy New Year.<\/p>\n

For those paying close attention, a return to the rule of law in 2006 never really looked good. \u201cThey might be unlawful aliens but otherwise lawful citizens\u201d was how U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales described the millions of identity and wage stealing illegal aliens <\/a>in remarks during his Senate confirmation hearings in January. <\/p>\n

Happy New Year.<\/p>\n

Having happily endorsed the re-writing and translating of the American national anthem <\/a>in the spring of 2006, millions of screaming illegals marched in the streets of America waving the flag of Mexico in a demand for \u201cdignity\u201c \u201cjustice\u201d and amnestia<\/em> for all. <\/p>\n

In Chicago, about 75,000 marching illegals were led by U.S. Congressman Luis Gutierrez. \u201cThis is our country and we are not leaving!\u201d was Gutierrez\u2019s\u2019 rallying cry.<\/p>\n

Gutierrez is busy right now helping to write the House version of \u201ccomprehensive immigration reform\u201d.<\/a>
\nHappy New Year.<\/p>\n

Imagine the headlines of \u201cintolerance and racism\u201d if Americans were to march by the millions in a demand for secure borders and an equal application of the law which requires that the illegals be punished along with their employers. <\/p>\n

In an effort at preserving the common language of our grandfathers, implementation of English as official language laws across the nation were angrily opposed and ridiculed as \u201cracist\u201d by – among many others – U.S. Senator Harry Reid. <\/p>\n

Does anyone remember the outraged headlines of 1999 when El Cenizo, Texas not only resolved to grant safe haven to all illegal aliens from Mexico, but made Spanish the town\u2019s official language<\/a>? Me neither.<\/p>\n

Harry Reid is the incoming Senate Majority Leader. <\/p>\n

Happy New Year.<\/p>\n

Here in Georgia, taking time out from lobbying against passage of the Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act, Jerry Gonzales, Executive Director of the Atlanta-based Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials joined marchers outside CNN Center carrying signs calling CNN\u2019s Lou Dobbs a \u201cracist\u201d. <\/p>\n

Dobb\u2019s offense? His must – see daily television presentation of the consequences of illegal immigration.<\/p>\n

Beware: The machine created by the open borders\/illegal alien lobby designed to create a climate of fear for Americans who may be tempted to speak out in defense of their sovereign nation and against amnesty-again will be in high gear in 2007. <\/p>\n

On illegal immigration, the president has found new friends. <\/p>\n

Happy New Year\u2026 or as we may be saying next year if illegal aliens are awarded with a path to citizenship again<\/a>\u2026 Feliz A\u00f1o Nuevo<\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
