I am placing my bets on “Immigration Reform.”\u00a0 Which of course is just double-speak for what it really is.\u00a0 I think it’s too much of a coincidence that the media is starting to focus on stories about our problems at the border.\u00a0 Don’t get me wrong, we do have problems.\u00a0 We have had problems for a very long time.\u00a0 I wish they had been addressed long ago, in a proper fashion.\u00a0 But now I fear it will be just a Trojan horse.<\/p>\n
For example, look at the stories coming out about Phoenix being the kidnapping capital of the U.S.\u00a0 Check out all the stories about all the drug cartel murders in Mexico.\u00a0 These problems and others are going to be reported now with increasing frequency, this done to help push through “immigration reform” which will ultimately be mostly a tool to grant amnesty to the all the illegal aliens in this country<\/strong>.\u00a0 However, those who champion this “reform” will shift focus to other pieces of it that have nothing to do with amnesty.\u00a0 The jabber about those trivial pieces will be much, much more than whatever trick is in there for granting amnesty.\u00a0 The whole mess is going to be essentially the same smoke and mirrors process they used for health care – where the the trick was to avoid talking about dumping 30+ million more patients (at the tax-payers expense) into our already over-burdened health care system.\u00a0 And of course, all the while the real, monumental problems with health care were addressed lightly if at all.<\/p>\n I am a descendant of an immigrant.\u00a0 Our melting pot is one of the things that makes America great.\u00a0 I love that people believe in this country so much that they are willing to die and do die in trying to get here. <\/strong>That is an unbelievable fact, my friends.\u00a0 America is that great, even now.\u00a0 Our poorest people here would be considered very well off if they lived the same style but in a lot of other places.\u00a0 Every U.S. citizen deserves the right to go for the best they can achieve.\u00a0 But it’s only fair that we should require them to earn their citizenship to this greatest of the lands of opportunity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am placing my bets on “Immigration Reform.”\u00a0 Which of course is just double-speak for what it really is.\u00a0 I think it’s too much of a coincidence that the media is starting to focus on stories about our problems at the border.\u00a0 Don’t get me wrong, we do have problems.\u00a0 We have had problems for […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-314","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/314","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=314"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/314\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":320,"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/314\/revisions\/320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluntforcememory.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
