Obama: 'Legitimate' for Americans To Be Worried Illegal Immigrants Will Lower Wages
by Tony Lee 9 Dec 2014, 6:14 PM PDT
On Tuesday, President Barack Obama criticized pro-amnesty agitators for smearing Americans who are opposed to massive amnesty legislation and executive amnesty as racists.
At a town hall event in Nashville, Tennessee, Obama mentioned that pro-amnesty agitators who have heckled Obama have suggested that anyone who is "concerned about the impact of immigration" or asks questions about comprehensive immigration reform "must be racist," or "anti-immigrant," or "ignorant."
"That's not true," he said, noting that "good people who believe in immigration" are also "concerned about rewarding somebody who broke American laws."
Obama, who as a Senator expressed the same concerns, also said that it is "legitimate" to be concerned about whether new immigrants will suppress wages, "particularly in the low-wage sectors of the economy."
"We have to be just as civil in addressing those questions as we expect people to be when we are talking to them," he said.
Those like U.S. Civil Rights Commissioner Peter Kirsanow have repeatedly warned Obama that massive amnesty legislation would hurt black American workers the most.
Obama said that pro-amnesty agitators "speak from the heart," but acknowledged that it is understandable for Americans to "feel resentful" if they believe illegal immigrants "are getting something for nothing." Obama tried to argue that his executive action, though, was not "amnesty" and urged pro-amnesty advocates to frame his executive amnesty as something that is holding illegal immigrants "accountable" by making them pay back taxes and fines.

A fine of less than 25 thousand dollars is not even fair enough to Americans, they are paying coyotes up to 10,000 to get them here, The 25 hundred dollar fine proposed by Congress is laughable.

So Obama is "knowingly" impoverishing our people and bankrupting our nation. Interesting how that would be revealed in his betrayal speech.
