Senate Dems pushing bill to block Arizona immigration law
« on: April 24, 2012, 06:09:49 PM »
Senate Democrats are pushing new legislation aimed at nullifying Arizona's controversial immigration law -- just in case the Supreme Court, which hears the case Wednesday, upholds the policy.
The proposal, announced Tuesday by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., would stand virtually no chance of passing in the Republican-controlled House. But it marks the latest preemptive challenge by Democrats to a high-stakes Supreme Court decision.

Have you heard?

Sen. Marco Rubio , R-Fla., wants his party to take a more compassionate approach to the issue of immigration. And he wants to start by changing the immigration laws to allow children of illegal immigrants with a clean record to stay in the United States legally.

How is that going to play with voters who oppose any kind of amnesty?

We already legally admit 1,000,000 (one million) immigrants a year now. That's 72% of the worlds refugee's or to put it more bluntly, more than the rest of the world combined. ....and way to damn many of them are muslims.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

A bill like this would never pass congress. The republicans will shoot it down faster than Nanci Pelosi gulping some obama juice.

The DemonRats are counting on that.  They are courting the illegal immigrant vote.

I wish Schmucky and the rest of the Senate Special Education Team the best of luck with teasing out the Constitutionality of that law.
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

That would be the point.  Those evil Republicans defeat the bill would mean a lot of Hispanic votes for the Democrats
