Michelle Obama Signals Husband's Support for Amnesty
Thursday, August 28, 2008, 4:14 PM



During a speech yesterday before a Hispanic caucus at the Democratic National Convention in Denver Michelle Obama, wife of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, signaled that if elected her husband would attempt to grant amnesty to every illegal alien in the United States.

Obama stated that "we would have an immigration policy that brings 12 million people out of the shadows" and that "Hispanics should not have to live in fear of raids by immigration agents."

Michelle Obama went on to say that "Hispanics are often the first to suffer in an economic downturn and the last to benefit during a recovery." While it is understandable that Obama is trying to court Hispanic voters, her remarks on Hispanic employment appear incorrect.

The most recent data from the U.S. Department of Labor puts the Hispanic unemployment rate at 7.6% and the African American unemployment rate at 10.9%. The most recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau places Hispanic poverty rate at 21.5% and the African American poverty rate at 24.5%. When one examines this and other data, it is clear that African Americans are the more economically vulnerable group.

More dismantling of America; crazy people for sure.

Put the military bases on the border; drill month along the borders.

Anyone that votes for Obama is voting for amnesty and the destruction of America!

Michelle Obama went on to say that "Hispanics are often the first to suffer in an economic downturn and the last to benefit during a recovery."

She is just as STUPID and uniformed like her partner Obama. Honestly, where do these two idots gets their information.

Obama stated that "we would have an immigration policy that brings 12 million people out of the shadows" and that "Hispanics should not have to live in fear of raids by immigration agents."

I guess this witch was living under a rock during the May marches last year.

This is all the more shocking when it's working class and poor blacks that suffer the most from unlimited illegal immigration. One of my neighbors complains about the young black men that do nothing but sit on their porches all day. Well, whose got the jobs they used to have? There isn't a fast food joint, a landscaping company or any other entry level job that isn't filled by illegals. In fact, one of the local McDonald's won't accept applications from Americans unless they're bilingual - Mexicans are okay speaking only Spanish though.

ITA. Just wanted to add. I noticed that when Obama was speaking about the cost of college education he deliberately negated saying all "American" children should be able to go to college and instead said Every child in the US should be able to go to college.

Should he be elected we will be fighting the DREAM ACT and amnesty for the next 4 years. Keep those fax machines running . . . . .
