Majority of Americans oppose "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" Amnesty !

We painfully watch as a few designer polls, that falsely claim a majority
of
Americans support "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" or a "path to
citizenship" for illegal aliens currently in the US, get a great deal of
press
in the print media. The large volume of polls that contradict this claim
get
little coverage in the media.
But now the proof is truly in, and I hope many will join with me in daring
Congress to take up "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" in 2008. Come on
Congress, make my day!
The reason this unpopular legislation failed last year and the reason
Congress
is reluctant to take the issue up during an election year is they know the
truth is a majority of American reject changing the current laws to allow
illegal aliens to stay in the US.
If the propaganda coming out of the mouths of open borders fanatics like
Rep.
Joe Baca, (D-CA) or Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) were true, then members of
Congress would be rushing to bring the legislation to the floor and eager
to
campaign on it in the 2008 elections. The fact that members of Congress do
not
want to address the legislation or campaign on it is proof that a majority
of
Americans reject the legislation.
Furthermore, if a majority of Americans really favored "Comprehensive
Immigration Reform" amnesty, then why have 35 states passed immigration
enforcement only legislation over the first few months in 2008? Why would
Michigan, Oregon, and Maine cut off licenses to illegal aliens?
While a small group of states have passed a very small volume of bills to
assist illegal aliens, the trend is clear that 95% of the legislation is
designed to detect and arrest illegal aliens, push them out of jobs, and
stop
them from driving or receiving taxpayer benefits!
According to today's article by Patricia Zapor titled 'States take up
immigration bills; Congress stays on sidelines' state legislators have
considered more than 1,100 bills already in 2008 and the vast majority are
for
enforcement and lacking the benefits described in the DC bills calling for
reform.
This is because most of our state legislators know what the public wants
and
are responding with enforcement bills.
So we can see that the massive trend towards enforcement only laws passed
by
states during an election year, combined with Congress trying to pretend
the
bills don't exist are proof that the public mandate rejects "Comprehensive
Immigration Reform"
In closing, I want to point out that we have hundreds of polls showing
that
nearly 80% of Americans want the borders secured, local police enforcing
immigration laws, no licenses for illegal aliens, no taxpayer benefits for
illegal aliens, and businesses that hire illegal aliens to be punished.
The "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" bills supported by Baca, Gutierrez,
McCain, Kennedy, Graham, Martinez, Clinton, Obama etc. would override all
of
the existing laws, which are supported by the public in these polls. It is
insanity to believe the fake assertion that 80% of Americans oppose
licenses
for illegal aliens, but would support a bill in Washington that would give
them all licenses. Are we to believe that 80% of Americans want local
police
to enforce immigration laws, but not on the 12-20 million illegal aliens
in
the US after Comprehensive Immigration Reform passed? By what stretch of
the
imagination should anyone believe that 80% of Americans do not want
taxpayer
benefits going to illegal aliens but it would be OK to give them taxpayer
benefits after they paid a small fine and signed up for a new ID under
Comprehensive Immigration Reform?
The truth is that the overwhelming evidence proves that a super majority
of
Americans oppose Comprehensive Immigration Reform, Guest Worker Program,
Temporary Worker Program, Path to Citizenship, etc... That is why the
supporters of amnesty have to keep changing the name!
A majority of Americans support the enforcement of our existing
immigration
laws only, which results in illegal aliens returning home on their own or
with
government assistance.
Any lawmaker, candidate, reporter, activist, or organization that supports
the
current lack of enforcement of the existing laws, or supports the
overthrow of
these laws by passage of new legislation, which a majority of Americans
oppose, is a traitor to the American republic and an enemy of the citizens
of
the United States.
"We The People of the United States" will hold each of you accountable for
the
lost American jobs, tax monies, and lives suffered because of your agenda.
We
will hold you accountable for attempting to overthrow our Republic for
which
our flag stands, destroying the self governance of our citizenry, and
subjugating the American majority by depriving us of the power to decide
policy in our own nation at the behest of Global corporations.
ALIPAC Activists are encouraged to distrubute this article far and wide.
