What Now For The Capitol Hill Gang?

There's a lot of talk about what Obama will do next. The top two are cap & trade and amnesty for illegal aliens. Both are interesting issues for different reasons. Tax burdens have been increased significantly thanks to Obamacare during an economic downturn. Cap & trade is another tax program this time for the betterment of the environment. Gas and oil prices have gone up - which serves as a tax - under Obama's tenure. On fiscal and employment matters, then, ideological concerns prevail over the practical notion of truly getting the economy back on track. Ah, but the stimulus is supposed to work all that out. That seems fanciful to me.

Then comes amnesty to people who, let's call a spade a spade, broke the law; Federal law. They entered the borders of a sovereign nation illegally. Logically, you round these people up and ship them out. After all, if you can't preserve the integrity of your laws (and the people who arrive in good faith with the full intention of observing American law) what good are you in the end? A laughable joke. Liberals have made much about the legal aspect of the Iraq war. On that front, they present a fair case. It's not an open and shut one, but certainly one that has merit and integrity. They were right to question all legalities and moralities of such an endeavor.

So then why, I wonder, do they support breaking the law with amnesty? I understand the complexities of the issue but why was it allowed to reach this point? What message will be sent if it does in fact happen? We're told time and again how "emotional" conservatives are (I'll remember that the next time I sit next to a financial advisor) and how "rational" liberals are (I can't stress how utterly retarded that belief is. One of my sister's is far left and she's anything but...in fact, she's all emotions. She's an artist...Despite this, I choose to not generalize and think all liberals are like her because I know they aren't) yet I can't see how they make any sense when they're willing to allow illegal people to get citizenship in one swoop.

I thought they were rational and dedicated to upholding the law? 

It's ghoulish and ghastly at the same time.

Then again, 10 million votes are at stake, eh?

Wrestle the insidious "we're rational, they're not" narrative from liberals. They don't own it.

As you can see here.
