NEW YORK (CNN) -- President Bush says that the installation of the new Iraqi government was a "watershed event," but at the same time warns Americans of the challenges and loss as we continue to prosecute the war against Iraqi insurgents. Sen. Harry Reid declares that legislation that would render English the national language is racist.
Thirty-seven Democrats vote for full amnesty for all illegal aliens in this country, even though nobody really knows whether the number is 11 million, 12 million or 20 million. The Senate Republican leadership demands that a "comprehensive immigration reform" plan must be passed before this Memorial Day weekend. And the president signs into law a tax cut that raises taxes on the educational funds of teenagers saving for college.
Never before in our country's history have both the president and Congress been so out of touch with most Americans. Never before have so few of our elected officials and corporate leaders been less willing to commit to the national interest. And never before has our nation's largest constituent group -- some 200 million middle-class Americans -- been without representation in our nation's capital.(Watch why Dobbs said Mexico's leader is in charge of U.S. immigration policy -- 3:16)
George W. Bush's approval ratings have slumped to the lowest of his presidency. The approval rating for Congress is even lower, and nearly three-quarters of Americans believe the country is headed in the wrong direction.
But what is our government doing about that? The president is staying the course in Iraq and apparently demanding little of his generals to create a new, far more effective strategy for urgent success. Of course, he also wants a guest-worker program and amnesty of millions of illegal aliens. And Congress, faced with midterm elections in just over five months, is intent on giving the president what he wants and telling working men and women and their families, American citizens all, to go to hell.
Illegal aliens are more important to this Congress than securing our borders and our ports, more important than those legal immigrants who have waited in line and who follow the law. The Senate has added to the litany of lunacy that makes up what it calls reform: Illegal aliens would only have to pay back taxes on three of the past five years, they will not be prosecuted for felonies such as identity theft or purchasing or using fraudulent Social Security cards, and unlike millions of visa holders who have to leave the country to have them renewed, they may simply remain in the United States while this Congress and this president give away all the benefits and privileges of American citizenship.
This is an outright assault in the elitist war on the middle class. And working men and women who've already borne the pain of losing good-paying manufacturing jobs and having middle-class jobs outsourced to cheap foreign labor markets are faced with the onslaught of more illegal immigration and cheap labor into the American economy. This president and Congress talk about bringing illegal aliens out of the shadows while they turn out the lights on our middle class.
President Bush and his most trusted advisers tell us how well our economy is doing, how many jobs have been created and how so-called free trade will enrich the lives of the same people whose livelihoods these policies are destroying.
It's hard not to think of the trusted adviser to Catherine the Great who sought to hide from her the embarrassing and shoddy condition of Ukrainian and Crimean villages by having elaborate facades built to divert her attention and to mask an uncomfortable reality. I don't know whether Karl Rove is President Bush's Grigori Potemkin or whether George Bush has created Potemkin villages all by himself. But the facades are cracking, and phony fronts of failed policies are quickly crumbling.
Six thousand unarmed National Guardsmen working as adjunct rear support to our undermanned, under-equipped Border Patrol is not border security. Three million illegal aliens continue to cross our borders and depress wages by hundreds of billions of dollars every year. The millions of manufacturing and middle-class jobs lost over the last five years have been replaced by lower-wage employment.
The president's faith-based commitment to so-called free trade will likely lead to a $1 trillion U.S. current account deficit this year and a trade debt of $4.5 trillion after 30 years of trade deficits. And while the president and Congress point to No Child Left Behind as a solution to our educational crisis, we're failing an entire generation of Americans whose test scores continue to fall and whose high school dropout rates would be embarrassing to a third-world country.
And a third-world country is what we will be if our elected officials don't soon come to their senses.

The bill currently being considered is even worse that Dobbs article presents it.
Why do people keep calling these invaders "immigrants"?

Fox praises Mexican immigrants By Adam Tanner
Mexican President Vicente Fox praised Mexican immigrants for pushing Washington on immigration reform on Friday, the last day of a U.S. trip during which he drew Republican barbs over the issue.
"We know about their contributions to this economy and to this country. We know about their loyalty to those who they work for," Fox said in a speech.
On Thursday, the U.S. Senate backed an immigration bill that would give millions of illegal immigrants a chance to become American citizens.
"They fought for it. They earned what they got yesterday," Fox told a California Chamber of Commerce audience.
The contentious issue still faces an uncertain outcome in the U.S. House of Representatives. which has passed a very different bill that calls for tough border security and enforcement measures.
The fractious debate in the U.S. Congress was reflected in miniature in the reaction to Fox's visit on Thursday to the California capital of Sacramento.
A few Republican lawmakers skipped his address to a joint session of legislature to protest Mexico's response to the flow of illegal immigrants into the United States.
"I'm going to refuse to listen to what he has to say today," said Republican Assemblywoman Sharon Runner. "His country is not helping."
Some Republicans attended but wore lapel pins reading "No Mas!" -- a message to Fox to do more to control their emigration.
"Mexico cannot continue to ignore the crisis of illegal immigration into the United States," Republican State Senator Dave Cox said. "I do not believe it fosters a productive discussion when President Fox has stereotyped efforts to control our borders as 'discriminatory,' and called those who oppose illegal immigration 'xenophobic."'
Democratic lawmaker Mark Leno mocked the Republican protests. "You'd think that Fidel Castro was visiting," he said of the Communist Cuban leader. "It's so insulting."

Why aren't these illegal aliens ( actually criminal aliens is more correct ) called 'insurgents' ?

Why ain’t they called ‘invaders’ or ‘enemies’, or the ‘bad guys’……or ‘dirty spics’….
I was in front of a state committee once and a piece of shit democrat bitched my friend out when she used the word ‘illegal alien”. Did a whole whine about ‘how dare you call someone ‘illegal’, no human is illegal’. My friend promptly replied that the U.S. citizens’ right to free speech gives her right to calls them illegal aliens and that was the term the state bill we were pushing called them. lol, that bitch turned red in the face and she was not allowed to vote in committee for bullying a citizen.

A better headline for that story would be: "ENEMY HEAD OF STATE ENTERS COUNTRY FOR TROOP REVIEW AND PEP RALLY." It is unbelievable that Fox was even given a tourist visa. WTF?

Excellent headline.

I just thought that up and I kind of like it. Let's use it and spread it around.

Never before has the JEW been given the power to interpose, defile,

The governmental nonresponsivenesses parallel those of the Weimar Republic. Same goes for Jew thought control via media. All we gotta wait for now is the money collapse to run its inevitable course, and it looks as if it's sliding plenty fast.

While the jews role in this disaster cannot be ignored, the real culprit behind this bill are big business and agriculture, which is mostly white. I know for a fact that the American Farm Bureau is lobbying heavily for this bill and last I checked, there ain't too many jews in that line of work.

Immigration Bill Is Worse Than You Think
by Sen. Jeff Sessions
Posted May 25, 2006
Editor’s Note: Sen. Jeff Sessions (R.-Ala.), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, offered a devastating analysis on the Senate immigration bill in a speech delivered on the Senate floor on Tuesday, May 23. Sessions pointed to shocking elements of the bill that were hidden deep in its text. These include, for example, that the employers of illegal aliens would be given an amnesty for cheating on their taxes, and that under the terms of the law the government would for all practical purposes have to take an illegal alien’s word for it that he has been in the country illegally long enough to qualify for an amnesty.
Sessions also pointed to some of the tremendous hidden costs of the bill, including the $500 billion in additional welfare payments it will cost American taxpayers in the period 10 to 20 years after its passage.
Senators who vote for the bill today cannot credibly claim later they were unaware of the elements and consequences that Sen. Session’s outlined in this speech.
I am going to take some time tonight to inform my colleagues about some of the problems with the legislation before us. It is worse than you think, colleagues.
The legislation has an incredible number of problems with it. Some, as I will point out tonight, can only be considered deliberate. Whereas on the one hand it has nice words with good sounding phrases in it to do good things, on the second hand it completely eviscerates that, oftentimes in a way that only the most careful reading by a good lawyer would discover. So I feel like I have to fulfill my duty. I was on the Judiciary Committee. We went into this. We tried to monitor it and study it and actually read this 614-page bill, and I have a responsibility and I am going to fulfill my responsibility.
I think the things I am saying tonight ought to disturb people. They ought to be unhappy about it. It ought to make them consider whether they want to vote for this piece of legislation that, in my opinion, should never, ever become law.
I would also just point out I will be offering tomorrow, or soon, an amendment to deal with the earned-income tax credit situation that is raised by this legislation, focusing on the amnesty in the bill and what will happen after amnesty is granted, before they become a full citizen. The Congressional Budget Office has concluded that the earned-income tax credit will pay out to those who came into our country illegally $29 billion over 10 years. The earned-income tax credit has been on the books for some time. It is a good bit larger than most people think. The average recipient of it receives $1,700. Lower-income people get a larger amount. Over half the people who we expect will receive amnesty are without a high school degree. They are receiving lower wages. They will be the ones who will particularly qualify for this. This is a score that has been given to us by the group that is supposed to score it—$29 billion will be paid out.
If they go all the way and become a citizen they will be entitled to this like any other citizen, and they will be entitled to get it under my amendment. But I do not believe we should award people who have entered our country illegally, submitted a false Social Security number, worked illegally—I do not believe we should reward them with $29 billion of the taxpayers’ money. That is a lot of money.
I will also be offering a budget point of order, I or one of my colleagues will, in the next day or so. We have been working on that. We asked for a report. The Congressional Budget Office has concluded that the budget point of order lies in the first 10 years of this bill. It also concludes that it lies under the long-term provisions of the budget points of order for expenditures in the outyears. They didn’t give us those numbers, but they said, without much work—they didn’t have to do much work—the numbers are going to be much worse in the outyears. It clearly would be a detriment to the Government and these figures would exceed the budget, and a budget point of order would lie.
