King “Those who should get in, get in; those who should be kept out, are kept out; and those who should not be here will be required to leave… Deportation is crucial”<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 1995 Testimony of the late Barbara Jordan, the Clinton-appointed Chair, U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n In Kevin Foley\u2019s recent column (Trump\u2019s final solution: \u2018deportation force\u2019 MDJ 11\/20\/2015<\/a>) were treated to another amusing example of the liberal practice of inventing a false scenario, projecting it onto a political enemy<\/a> and then smearing that enemy as if that enemy had created the scenario.<\/p>\n Look up \u201cstraw-man argument\u201d to get a clue on this transparent manipulation.<\/p>\n If you missed it, Foley explained that he heard presidential candidate Donald Trump promise to create a \u201cdeportation force\u201d for illegal aliens. Foley then went on to write his own script<\/em> of what Trump\u2019s immigration enforcement action would do. \u201cIn picturing Trump\u2019s \u201cdeportation force\u201d deployed throughout a sprawling Los Angeles, I envision something that looks an awful lot like the Nazi Schutzstaffel (\u201cProtection Squadron\u201d) or more familiarly, SS, and the Gestapo secret police who rounded up Jews, political opponents, intellectuals, homosexuals and everyone else Hitler deemed \u201cundesirable,\u201d wrote Foley.<\/p>\n We (yawn) get the idea. Anyone who supports deportation of illegal aliens<\/a> is obviously a Nazi.<\/p>\n Score one for a slight variation on the observation made on weak arguments by Mike Godwin in 1990. \u2018Godwin’s law\u2019 asserts that “as an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches – that is, if an online discussion (regardless of topic or scope) goes on long enough, sooner or later someone will compare someone or something to Hitler or Nazism.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI see families torn apart\u2026\u201d is a regurgitation of the standard \u2013 and poorly constructed \u2013 liberal argument against immigration enforcement. Qualified, for now, with a possible exception for illegal aliens convicted of a felony. All this absent even a token nod to someday, maybe, securing American borders or monitoring visa-holder departures.<\/p>\n The reality is that about half of the illegals now here illegally did not come illegally. They came on a temporary visa and refused to leave. As did several of the 9\/11 terrorists.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t disregard the dangerous audacity of hope for this loony \u201conly if they are convicted of a felony\u201d deportation idea. It came a week after Islamists bombed Paris and ran on another day that news stories informed us of the capture at the southern border of illegal aliens from countries with known terrorist ties. The FBI has confirmed last week\u2019s apprehension of six military-aged men from Afghanistan and Pakistan. (THIS IS THE MISTAKEN END OF PUBLISHED COLUMN IN THE MDJ TODAY)<\/em><\/p>\n None of these victims of borders have been convicted of a felony here and are apparently exempt from deportation under the enlightened \u201cfelons only\u201d premise of immigration enforcement.<\/p>\n The truth is that we already have a federal deportation force. It is called \u201cICE\u201d and part of its mission is to enforce our immigration laws in the interior of the U.S., including apprehension and processing of illegal aliens for deportation.<\/p>\n The crisis that we are now enduring on immigration has been created by successive White House administrations that refuse to allow ICE to do its job for political reasons. Currently, Obama has ordered ICE to implement policies that allow about 80% of the illegals in the nation to escape deportation.<\/p>\n The far left is in a frenzied panic because Donald Trump has permanently embedded the issue of immigration into the 2016 presidential contest and because the depth of the seething anger of middle-class Americans regarding illegal immigration has been bared.<\/p>\n Barbara Jordan\u2019s recommended solutions to congress included the now proven premise that cutting off access to jobs, benefits and services would result in illegal aliens returning to their home nations in desperation. As has been presented in this space for more than a decade, the reasonable and logical solution is a steady attrition of the illegal population through enforcement of the law. Oh, my!<\/p>\n The late Barbara Jordan Source; GovTrack.us<\/p><\/div>\n In a nation gone mad in which the illegal aliens are victims and Americans who demand an equal application of the law are portrayed by many as \u2018Nazis\u2019, one should assume that the civil rights icon and presidential Medal of Freedom winner Barbara Jordan would come out on the wrong side of the 21st century liberal\u2019s hate campaign<\/a> against the pro-enforcement majority.<\/p>\n The bi-partisan Jordan Commission also recommended cutting legal immigration to about 550,000, which is half of today’s level. Oh, my!<\/p>\n We wonder exactly when the far-left will begin to smear \u2018the Barbara Jordan solution.\u2019<\/p>\n D.A.
