SAN DIEGO CITY COUNCIL MAKES HISTORY

April 9, 2013 (San Diego)—At the cusp of the U.S. Senate taking on immigration reform, the San Diego City Council today sent a bipartisan message to Washington. With a unanimous vote, the San Diego City Council passed a resolution asking for comprehensive, common sense, immigration reform. The partisan divide in Washington was not evident in San Diego, where Republicans joined their Democratic colleagues to stand united on this issue.
 
Council Member David Alvarez chaired the effort with Council Member Mark Kersey. Before the vote, Alvarez said, “The language is meant to send a message to Washington DC...This is a united message.” He noted that almost everybody is affected by this issue; immigration touches all of us.
 
The text of the resolution is here: http://dockets.sandiego.gov/sirepub/cache/2/skigyb31wokeed45gleeep45/51555404092013061411217.PDF

Some context, since this is just the 8th largest city in the US, and the busiest border crossing in the world.
 
A major border city is telling the US Congress... time to do this.

Oh and it was as bipartisan as they come. To be honest, we both were shocked and pleasantly surprised.

Yes, this is not just a local story. Not with this resolution becoming a national template.

The above's the whole campfire.

The SD City Council passed a resolution that carries no weight in law?  Wow, that was tough and decisive, wasn't it?

Color me unimpressed, nads...   :yawn:
"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.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

Why is it that any legislation described as "common sense" is always an ultra-liberal crock of shit?

1. Because it usually is.
2. Because "common sense" to a liberal is as foreign a concept as a smart phone to a caveman.
Murphy's 3rd Law:  "You can't make anything 'idiot DUmmie proof'.  The world will just create a better idiot DUmmie."

Liberals are like Slinkys.  Basically useless, but they do bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs...
 
Global warming supporters believe that a few hundred million tons of CO2 has more control over our climate than a million mile in diameter, unshielded thermo-nuclear fusion reactor at the middle of the solar system.

I'm here and kalifornia is lost. There is no hope. The only good that com of kalifornia's demise is to warn other states what happens when democrats, unions, and illegal aliens (BIRM, BIRM) become a cohesive parasitic voting block. 
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

They still want comprehensive immigration reform when real unemployment is near depression levels?  It kinda puts the lie to them saying it was about needing workers.  It's really about the political class trying to ensure they are permanantly in power.  The fact is that they like Mexico's system where only a few families control everything.

Go to the DUmp and say you think H1B visas need to be expanded and you'll see real fast how much they only want "the right kind" of workers.
