Should the White House and Congress drop immigration reform to focus on climate and energy?

Senator Lindsey Graham has left the atmosphere and the bill of energy policy, he has co-authored with Kerry and Lieberman, as seems to be the White House, for Immigration Reform (another question is Graham a key figure in) in front of a climate bill. “Recent press reports indicate that immigration – and not energy – their priority was not rejected. It destroyed my confidence that it will move a serious commitment and focus on energy legislation this year. All major stakeholders, including the Senate leadership of this debate, much as we want. This is clearly not the Fall.Ich am very pleased with this turn of events disappointed and we think that their decision in flagrant contradiction with the commitments made weeks in Senators Kerry, Lieberman and me. I deeply regret that politics will interfere with an election year, if not derail our efforts for our national energy independence. “Http://views. Washington Post.

    Since there’s no such thing as global warming, no we shouldn’t. We should also start organizing border hunting parties, by putting a bounty on all illegals, dead or alive, $100 if dead, $1000 if alive. Put the survivors in forced labor camps. I don’t have a problem with foreigners coming to our nation, as long as they do things the legal way. These “no Abla” Bastards seem to think they are exempt from rules.

    We should also drill our own oil and collapse the towel head economy.

    Why would anyone support a so called energy bill that will double our electric rates, turn off our thermostats automatically should demand “soar”, give up more of our liberty and tax us exponentially? Why would anyone want an even larger gov’t bureaucracy to regulate this industry?

    Obama is slobbering at the bits, running this country into the ground as fast as he can to turn us into socialists and one can only ask, “WHY”? Cap and Trade has already proved to be a monumental failure in Europe and these states are reversing the decision to continue with it. It’s too costly yet Obama insists we “need Energy Reform” (he changed the name from Cap and Trade since that term and implications were so negative to the majority of We The People).

    Since Obama performs his duties to the detriment of our country, don’t worry: he will soon come back to “Energy Reform” as long as he has a majority in Congress….or bypasses Congress altogether and go straight for the jugular.

    What this country needs is jobs and job creation. But they have to be long term jobs, not feelgood projects that employ people just long enough so they can’t get unemployment after the job runs out.

    We need jobs that manufacture and produce. No more burger flipping or see how many reams of paper can be used without actually selling or producing a product. Flat panel TV’s and computer monitors are big sellers right now, we should be making those. There should be “Made in the USA” on our computers and other goods. US Steel should never have enough employees to meet production schedules instead of letting China dump its steel on our shores.

    We all know by now global warming and climate change are figments of politicians’ imaginations, and even the not-so-great-O has bought into the hysteria. But notice how their agendas have nothing to do with what this country needs.

    Congress is not listening to the people. The health care “overhaul” is a joke, and Arizona is taking things into its own hands since the Feds won’t do anything about illegal immigration.

    “Oh but it’s racist to protect our borders.” (fidget, fidget, wring hands)

    No.

    And immigration reform should not be even considered until the Texas/Mexico border is 100% perfectly sealed — which means not having 4 or 5 million illegals flowing into USA every year.

    Immigration reform should begin with the idea that the USA is a country and countries have a right to hold their borders secure, and that Mexicans belong in Mexico, or wherever they can legally go, but not illegally flowing into USA as if USA were not a country with a right to hold its border secure.

    The only people in America who think that USA is a place where Mexicans should be are the Marxists in the White House and in NYC and LA.

    The climate problem will kill us in the next 100 or 1000 years or so.

    The immigration problem will sink this country in the next 6 months.

    So, if this is a question of in-box management, I say let’s put immigration at the top of the pile.

    You combine an open border with Obamacare and USA becomes the New Biafra real quick.

    They will walk away from it after this November. Immigration is just a political ploy rolled out every election cycle to motivate the paranoid racist demographic to vote. After this fall the topic will disappear until 2012.

    The two major beneficiaries of illegal immigration are the Mexican government and US business (which is basically the same as the US government). So long as the people who benefit the most are the same people who make the rules, nothing will change.

    edit -

    I wonder how many of these immigration zealots recall that Bush received 40% of the Latino vote in the 2004 Presidential election (good luck repeating that feat in 2012) or have considered the cost of the countless lawsuits that will be filed by legal citizens who will have their constitutional rights violated in the prosecution/persecution of this legal campaign.

    We have been putting off significant action on the environment in general for 40 years now (Ronny Regan killed the envirnomental movement in 1980!). The climate is starting to bitch slap the global population, whole ecosystems are failing, we are on the eve of mass extinctions and the pollution from more sources than you can count these days is killing us all very slowly.

    All we need to do on immigration reform is allow the red necks with their guns to profile and let them to be the racial bigots they truly are and we could have all the illegals rounded up in 1 weekend! Not to mention anyone else they don’t like in their communities… One way or the other we loose the America we once knew and loved.

    People are more concerned about who might get a lousey job before they do, than what’s going to take them out in the short term or what they leave behind for future generations.

    Democrats love to have useful idiots to pretend to have bipartisan reform. Lindsey Goober Graham is often that man. I suspect he has been brought the woodshed and told in no uncertain terms what is in store for him if he continues his pushing these leftist causes. It would be interesting if they did drop Amnesty because it would force Goober’s hand. Graham’s nickname is Grahamnesty for his previous support of comprehensive (amnesty) immigration reform. Don’t get me wrong. I like Graham. He may be my favorite liberal.

    Note: I get tired of rascist rants from leftists who pretend that anyone that doesn’t believe in their big government programs are racists. In fact, it is the left who belittles minorities with suggestions that they cannot succeed without their help. Their dogoodery has resulted in encouraging single motherhood which has devatating effects and has caused a culture of dependency that we will have to suffer with for generations. Our current financial crisis is largely due to a continuation of this nonsense by loaning homes to people who couldn’t pay for it. It was precisely their stupidity that has been a wrecking ball in many neighborhoods and they don’t acknowledge how stupid and destructive they have been. It must in their genes to ignore history. They just blame conservatives, call them racists, or fascists, and suggest we didn’t throw enough money at it.

    They should stop trying to fix things because they haven’t got a clue as to how to go about fixing anything.
