Which has what to do with his ability to lead the country? What not
brag about Obama's accomplishments as POTUS? You leftists nitpick
about a Conservative candidate being a "cheerleader" in grade school
yet give Obama a complete and total pass on his radical past. It makes
you look desperate. Keep up the good work.

(profuse apologies for the uncharacteristic lack of URL, I transcribed
this from the TV):
Lawrence O'Donnell, MSNBC:
"We now know what the secret Mitt Romney says at his $50,000 per
person fundraisers that the public Mitt Romney would never say. Romney
demonstrated some competence in campaign math. He told his audience
that president Obama's huge lead among Hispanic voters 'Spells doom
for us. We have to come up with some kind of Republican DREAM Act. We
have to get Hispanics to vote for our party.'".
His first big problem is Barack Obama and his second big problem is
Mitt Romney:
(archive footage)
"If I were elected and Congress were to pass the DREAM Act, I would
veto the DREAM Act" - Mitt Romney
"The answer is self deportation" (*) - Mitt Romney
(*) Making life for the undocumented person so miserable [which is
fine] AND HIS/HER FRIENDS AND RELATIVES [which is not], that they have
to leave.
"Arizona (**) is the role model for the country" - Mitt Romney
(**) SB-1070 - Unconstitutional according to all Federal Courts
Romney strategists are staring at a Latino lock on the Electoral
College.
“Assuming that Obama wins all the states that have been won by every
Democrat for the last 20 years, including both Gore and Kerry (242
electoral votes) and Romney wins all the states that McCain won in
2008 (180 electoral votes), that leaves 10 states: CO, FL, IA, IN, NC,
NH, NM, NV, OH, VA (116 electoral votes). With those ten states, there
are 1,024 possible combinations. Out of these 1,024 scenarios, Obama
wins 939 of them (91.7%) and Romney wins 85 of them (8.3%). All 85
scenarios REQUIRE Mitt Romney to win Florida, a state in which Obama
leads according to all the latest polls”
"If you think that Romney can close that gap by choosing Marco Rubio
as his running mate, with the magic of Marco Rubio on the ticket
absolutely nothing changes in Florida"
Even Marco Rubio CANNOT save Romney. In fact, Jeb Bush carries more
Hispanic voters to the GOP ticket.
-----------------------
O'Donnell: "You Republican strategists are saying: 'How do we undo
this!? Look what we have done to the Latino voters... How can we
possibly get them back?'"
Steve Schmidt, Top Republican Strategist (*), agreeing: "If we [the
GOP] had a deliberate strategy to antagonize every Latino voter in
this country, it is not possible that we could have done a better
job".
"The Republican Party cannot be a national party if it doesn't compete
in the Hispanic market - Look at those numbers: we have big, big
problems"

I AM NOT a PROPONENT of illegal immigration. My motto is: ONE illegal
immigrant is ONE too many.
The idea behind CIR is to ELIMINATE (more realistically reduce as much
as possible) illegal immigration.
I am simply explaining to you folks WHY things are the way they are: I
am neither illegal myself NOR employer of them. Can't do the first
thing about it.

You ignorant,snot nosed idiot. WTF ever happened to the Bracero
Program(let me guess,liberals and Labor Unions,hoodathunkit)?? The
migrants would travel to the US,work the fields,follow the seasons
then take their money and go back to their home in whatever country
they came from. Why did that program become OPEN BORDERS for every
swinging dick and baby squirting mamacita to slither across our
borders,squat and demand we Americans change our culture and way of
life to make the invaders FEEEEEELLLLL good?
The Bracero Program (named for the Spanish term bracero, "strong-arm")
was a series of laws and diplomatic agreements, initiated by an August
1942 exchange of diplomatic notes between the United States and
Mexico, for the importation of temporary contract laborers from Mexico
to the United States.
American president Franklin D. Roosevelt met with Mexican president
Manuel Ávila Camacho in Monterrey, Mexico to discuss Mexico as part of
the Allies in World War II and the Bracero Program. After the
expiration of the initial agreement in 1947, the program was continued
in agriculture under a variety of laws and administrative agreements
until its formal end in 1964.

[From an old thread:]

[Ramon:]
Not for certain people. There are 3 levels. It works like this:
(1) Entrepreneurs, brain surgeons, rocket scientists, computer
engineers (such as moi, hopefully): The government sends a stretch
limo to pick you at the airport, complete with a red carpet. The head
of immigration goes personally, and introduces you to his daughters:
"No need to stay in a hotel, we will be honored if you stay with us.
We insist!" (and the girls smile invitingly).
(2) Medium level executives, qualified workers, etc. Not too hard,
either. There are plenty of options, the company sponsors you, etc.
(3) Day Laborers, chambermaids, crop pickers (the type this mess is
all about): No (legal) way on Earth. Since 1776 we have looked the
other way, allowing the Invisible Hand (long live capitalism!) to
perform its magic: In a sublime place, Supply and Demand meet ("We are
not worthy!, We are not worthy!"), the only meeting greater than that
of Lennon and McCartney.
Mexican folks (who have been roaming those lands for 50,000 years)
used to cross the border is BOTH directions, depending on DEMAND and
SUPPLY. Sometimes all they need is capital money to start their own
business in Mexico (about 10 grand can be sufficient).
This is part of why we hate you fascist fucks. You call an unconstitutional power grab on the part of the executive, and for no more than to bolster his reelection bid, "brilliant."

Yeah, he hears the same thing every 5 years in Venezuela and well, they're doing all right.

Kind of like when we were warning you of the financial crisis and you shrugged your shoulders?
''These two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- are not facing any
kind of financial crisis,'' said Representative Barney Frank of
Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee.
''The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on
these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.''
