Obama at the La Raza convention: Ice as Terrorists
Barack Obama at National Council of La Raza convention (ICE as terrorists)
Barack Obama spoke at the National Council of La Raza convention earlier today. See below for more on the NCLR. BHO's prepared remarks are here: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articl ... _raza.html
BHO said many of the things he's said before; apparently his scriptwriters engaged in a lot of copy-and-paste. And, of course, he said many things that once again show he's not qualified to be president:
The system isn't working when 12 million people live in hiding, and hundreds of thousands cross our borders illegally each year; when companies hire undocumented immigrants instead of legal citizens to avoid paying overtime or to avoid a union; when communities are terrorized by ICE immigration raids – when nursing mothers are torn from their babies, when children come home from school to find their parents missing, when people are detained without access to legal counsel.
And, there's this:
By living up to the ideals that this organization has always embodied – the ideals reflected in your name – La Raza, the people. I'm told that the original phrase was "La Raza Cosmica" – the cosmic people – a term big enough to embrace the rich tapestry of cultures, colors and faiths that make up the Hispanic community. Big enough to embrace the notion that we are all part of a greater community – that we all have a stake in each other; that I am my brother's keeper, I am my sister's keeper; and we rise and fall together as one people.
And, for yet another disqualifier, he shows he doesn't understand democracy and the concept of free speech:
The 12 million people in the shadows, the communities taking immigration enforcement into their own hands, the neighborhoods seeing rising tensions as citizens are pitted against new immigrants... they're counting on us to stop the hateful rhetoric filling our airwaves – rhetoric that poisons our political discourse, degrades our democracy, and has no place in this great nation.
About the NCLR: they're a far-left organization that supported giving a break to those who engage in identity theft: http://lonewacko.com/blog/archives/007196.html , they gave an award to a vile racist: http://lonewacko.com/blog/archives/007458.html , their leaders frequently mislead: http://lonewacko.com/blog/archives/007206.html , and they have links to and fund extremists: http://lonewacko.com/blog/archives/006563.html . And, Karl Rove spoke at their 2006 event: http://lonewacko.com/blog/archives/005270.html .
