Latest from the grapevine

I have heard a rumor, which I consider reliable, that ICE employees whose jobs involve processing applications from aliens who which to become legal residents have been warned to expect a general amnesty for illegals in the first half of 2009 regardless of who wins the presidential election.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that with he nation's choice being either Obama, McCain or Clinton for president and the certainty of a congress firmly under Democrat control that amnesty will be a done deal.

However the fact that the immigration bureaucrats are being told to look for amnesty in the first few months of next year would seem to indicate that amnesty is going to be the first priority of the next administration.

This makes some sense politically in that it will come at a time when the media will be distracted by covering the transition to the new presidential administration. This will give the House members nearly two full years to send enough pork back to the districts to make people forget the way they betrayed the nation.

Of course you can forget about any kind of earmark reform even if McCain is elected because that pork is going to have to come from somewhere.

The purpose of amnesty is to legalize the 20-30 million Mexicans who are in this nation illegally. The ultimate goal is to create a quick and easy path to citizenship for these new legal residents in order to swell the ranks of the Democrat party so that will never again risk losing the White House or the Senate (and probably not the house either).

After 15 or 20 years of this either that civil war that no one thinks is possible will occur or else the USA will have become the USSA and only the unfortunate location of an ocean will be standing in the way of America joining the European Union.

We must have been cursed by an ancient Chinaman because these are "interesting" times indeed.
