Yep, millionaire farmers in California need us to give them more help to take care of their i*****l a***n employees. They cost those poor taxpayers of California all kinds of money to keep them educated, fed, hospitalized and on and on but none of those millionaires think they should be responsible for any of that care.

I will argue with Ms. Coulter in that each and every one of those i******s is supposed to cost a fine of $10,000 according to the amnesty act of 1986 which is still in force. I don't think any of those people have paid even $1 per head for their i******s but they were supposed to pay $10,000. This tells me how much the laws passed by our Congress are obeyed and enforced.

I stopped reading Ann Coulter in 2012 when she decided that RINO Chris Christy was the right candidate for the Republican P**********l primary, and when he could generate no steam, instead of backing an actual conservative, she went immediately to Mitt Romney.

Below are quotes from her column with which I do, however, agree:



Note that the "overcrowded schools" in the quote above, "filled with children" who drastically stretch the budgets provided by legal taxpayers, and who can speak no English is a disadvantage that Rick Perry and other border state governors struggle against, as the political left criticizes them for students who fare low on the national average scale.



The above expenditures created by our federal government's refusal to enforce our i*********n l*ws is a main reason behind Obama's claim of a "healthcare crisis" as his excuse for jamming through the Obamacare law.



The budget of Mexico can no longer be considered impoverished, due in large part to the development of their oil industry.

If the millions of i******s that have descended upon the United States would stay in their own country, and demand reform, and a larger share of their own national pie, their would be no need for our schools and hospitals to be bankrupted.



There are now 91,000,000, - that's ninety one million legal American citizens that have left the U.S. labor force since Obama was enthroned, because they've given up looking for work.

...and still, all emphasis is on helping the i******s, rather than those who have legally invested their entire lives in supporting this nation.

Again, am no Obama fan, but this problem existed before he was Prez, and will continue when he's gone. Look at the power behind the "throne" , if you can, and take it up with the bankers and business tycoons he facilitates for who care even less about the average American than Obama does.

But these laws are only passed for the poor and middle class. Everybody knows that rich people are exempt and if some doofus tried to enforce something on a rich person, they'd just call their pet congress person and get the law changed. That's what happened when the ethics committees questioned congress persons illegal insider trading, they promptly passed a law making it legal for themselves to do so. Easy peasy.

I agree with you that the greed now prevalent among some of the powerful is a detriment to the nation, but that, to a greater or lesser degree has always been the case.

Obama is the president. The bankers and "tycoons" are not.

The U.S. has laws on the books which would speedily rectify this mess if they were enforced.

Obama took an oath of office to do exactly that.

The nation is still waiting.

Well I wouldn't hold my breath. No candidate from either wing of the plutocracy is going to go out on a limb for the good of the country as a whole. That has been made clear over the last 30+ years. Yes, Obama is the president. But he is not the ultimate power, and he will do nothing unless the majority of citizens in this country united on a common platform and made him.

Zemirah Loc: Sojourner En Route...

At the present time, he is operating as the ultimate power with his "phone and his pen," unwilling to enforce laws passed by the congress,
because he doesn't "feel" they're constitutional!- but, oh so willing to send forth edicts reversing existing i*********n l*w.

When did someone's "feelings" determine law in this land?

As for "going out on a limb," I would say that both Rand Paul and Ted Cruz have both done just that, with their respective 2013 filibusters; Rand against murdering American citizens with drones, and Ted with his very reasoned argument against the national budget buster that is Obamacare.

One of those laws you speak about is the Amnesty Act of 1986. It says that any employer who knowingly hires an i*****l a***n has to pay a $10,000 fine for each employee of that kind. Now that says that a number of our Presidents have failed to enforce that law and all of them took the same oath of office. It is past time that we demanded more enforcement of old, never enforced laws and this is one of them.

I think that farmers, who are small, all throughout the South have cried about this part of that Amnesty law and their whines have been much of the reason that the huge corporate farmers of the West Coast have not been forced to pay the fines. I well remember the videos of people in Georgia going to town squares to be picked up for "day work" by farmers and should have all cost those who hired them $10,000. I think that that fine would have done the trick if it had been enforced.

Just think, so many of our meat packing plants hired i******s after the Amnesty Act went into force. Why didn't they hire the newly amnestied aliens? We all know the answer to that one.

One of my favorite stories about those packing plants had to do with how fearsome those places were with people running pellmell, sharp knives in hand, after some clown yelled, "ICE is in the house."

Thanks for that post. There is a chance that at least one of two left leaners will read those quotes from the article when none of them will click on the link.

He will do nothing unless a majority of the citizens back him? I guess you haven't heard about how many people are behind him about Obamacare. Is that right? You do know what majority means, don't you?
