Dealing with my right wing brother. Is Obama thinking about granting illegal

[Javaman]

immigrants Legal status?

[ReliantJ]

1. Haven't heard anything about this.

Is he bringing Bush's plan back?

[muntrv]

2. Bush and McCain weren't exactly build the wall types.

[Mz Pip]

3. Ask him to provide

specifics. And not just speculation posted on some RW blog.

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. No, that was George W. that wanted to do that.

[hobbit709]

5. Has the RW ever been correct or 100% accurate on anything?

[librechik]

6. He's a muslim communist, and will not only make them full citizens,

he will throw your brother & family out of their their house and Obama's Army of Hippies will come and burn it down to turn it into a pot farm. What? I heard it on Rush, so it must be true! Oh, and your brother is on the list to have his citizenship rescinded, since he is a Republican--Obama is going to make dissent illegal and all the Republicans are going to be imprisoned or executed so the Dirty Dirty Dirty brown illegal aliens can take over the country! I heard it on Rush, so it must be true!

16. Homer Simpsons said it best:

Did you know that everyday Mexican gays sneak into this country and unplug our braindead ladies?

[treestar]

7. Maybe brother would consider going to Obama's web site

and simply reading what it says there? :rofl: No, why do that when you can get the facts directly from Lou Dobbs and Billo the Clown and Comedian Rush Limpba?

[Ioo]

8. The biggest time it was ever done was the Gipper!

[stray cat]

9. I suspect he is closer to McCain and Bush and dems on immigration than the extreme right

so I suspect he would be in favor of some sort of earned citizenship

[Lex]

10. What link did he provide to you to prove this?

11. Yes and tell your brother that President Obama is also going to

have all conservative dissenters rounded up and sent to reeducation camps. Experts on this subject believe it will take at least three years so all property of these people will be confiscated and given to homeless citizens.

12. From the White House website:

"The time to fix our broken immigration system is now… We need stronger enforcement on the border and at the workplace… But for reform to work, we also must respond to what pulls people to America… Where we can reunite families, we should. Where we can bring in more foreign-born workers with the skills our economy needs, we should."
-- Barack Obama, Statement on U.S. Senate Floor
May 23, 2007

Create Secure Borders: Protect the integrity of our borders. Support additional personnel, infrastructure and technology on the border and at our ports of entry.

(snip)

Bring People Out of the Shadows: Support a system that allows undocumented immigrants who are in good standing to pay a fine, learn English, and go to the back of the line for the opportunity to become citizens.

13. He's trying to avoid facing up to the trillion-car pile-up that is the right-wing economy.

And he's clouding the issue.

So, XXXXX,

Bush seeks legal status for illegal immigrants
Plan could help GOP with Latinos

or this:

Congress Looks to Grant Legal Status to Immigrants
Published: October 13, 2003 (republican controlled congress)

Please provide me with information that clearly states that Obama is going to grant them legal status? I'm not going to prove a negative.

If you want to stop illegal immigrants, fine the people who hire them. And if you want to use the old argument that the illegals take away jobs from Americans, fine, but find me one Amerian that will work for the low low low next to nothing wages and work in the same conditions that the illegals do. Next time you go to the supermarket, think about how your veggies got picked.

Or XXXX,
Are you getting your information from these loons?

http://www.minutemanhq.com/hq/article.php?sid=930

knowing full well of these bloated idiots, since I live in a boarder state, all I can say is, if one was to take any information from them with any sort of validity, one also must eat a block of salt along with it.

I also checked the the Obama's, congress and the senates websites that states absolutely nothing of such a think to which you propose.

Don't listen to rush. don't listen to the Media talking heads, most of all don't even pay attention to mass e-mails that claime to state the truth. You are much too smart for that.

[havocmom]

15. Told my RW bro: before SPECULATING on what Obama might do,( according to Rush)

face the fuck up to what bush/cheney DID do!

He has suspended all talking points emails to me :evilgrin:
