'Anchor Baby' Constitutional Amendment to Face Scrutiny in Congress

Associated Press

More condescending finger wagging and tsk-tsk'ing from the Associated Press.  The tone of the article reeks with contempt for people who want to put a stop to illegal immigration.

Good!! Let them wag their finger at me as much as they want. Because I STRONGLY oppose the Dream Act.

You said it true, true.
Sneaking into a country doesn't make you an immigrant any
more than breaking into someone's house makes you part of the family.

Sadly, any discussion of a Constitutional amendment to either address the "anchor baby" issue or revisit the (flawed) interpretation of the 14th Amendment will likely never make it past the committee stage, let alone make it to the full Senate, to say nothing of obtaining the required 2/3 supermajority required to send it to the states.

But it's nice to know SOMEONE inside the beltway still cares about the rights of American citizens more than criminaliens.
“Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian.”  -Henry Ford
