Barack Obama and his allies in Congress are now resorting to extortion when it comes to granting Amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. Their latest ploy? Give us Amnesty and then we'll "talk" about constraining our out-of-control spending. According to the Washington Examiner: "[Senator Dick] Durbin told Senator Jon Kyl (R-AZ) on Fox Sunday News program that if the GOP passed the DREAM Act, Democrats would be more willing to talk about reducing the country’s spending habit."
Durbin added that when it comes to granting Amnesty to millions of illegal aliens, "we're not giving up" because NOT pushing the so-called DREAM Act down the throats of the American people "isn't what the American people want us to do. It isn't the American way."
And Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid chimed in on the DREAM Act as well and said that it's time to "rise up" and that the DREAM Act is "good for everybody.†No Harry, it really isn’t. The American people have rejected it time and again. Yet, you still continue on and on about it like a broken record. The DREAM Act is still bad for America, no matter how many times Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Dick Durbin try to ram it down our throats.
The DREAM Act, like just about every other piece of legislation proposed by the radical left, is nothing less than snake oil. On the surface, it sounds so caring... so good. Liberals preach to us that the DREAM Act is all about “helping people†and “providing a safety net.â€
But, here's the big loophole that no one wanted to discuss back then. The version of the DREAM Act that Reid and Durbin pushed last fall did not actually require an amnesty applicant to produce valid evidence that he or she met the above criteria.
In other words... any applicant, under the age of 35, who had resided in this country for five years simply needed to enroll for a course at the local community college and bingo... they were in.
Of course, if the applicant had just crossed the border a few days prior... or if the applicant was actually over the age of 35... or if the applicant didn't want to go through the hassle of actually attending classes at the local community college.... that wasn't a problem... the applicant simply had to lie.
