Thread: One word turned the tide for Comprehensive Shamnesty Defeat

Words are very powerful. Repeated enough times people start to believe them. Consider the mythical "Aztlan" taught in schools and so on, (never existed, but now assumed to be fact) repeated over and over to disgruntled masses who by the strength of that one single word now think they have a right to be here.

Consider the word "Racist" which the illegals hurl about (even though they are the most racist of all. They took the word before we had a chance to grab it ourselves. And with this ONE word they got a lot of teary eyed liberals defending them, as if the charge is true. We need to take that word back and throw it at them, we need to reclaim it.

But the word that turned the tide in that senate vote the other week was the word "Amnesty". Because we used that word over and over in our letters and phone calls, and the senators were all defensive about it "Oh no, it's not really amnesty, no, no , it isn't that at all". Well we pounded and pounded with that one word, and they finally heard us! Hallelujah!
The power of words!

The government dismisses the most scholarly arguments, the best crafted letters, the most accurate facts about this invasion. But they do react. They react to words. They hate to be called "racist" so they pander to every illegal who tosses that word at them. They hate to be called "xenophobic" so they allow sanctuary to the Elviras, and sanctuary cities for everyone. And you notice how much they hated us (thousands and thousands of us, maybe millions of us) to throw that word "Amnesty" in their faces ? They just freaked out.

You and I aren't afraid of the labels anymore, the illegals can call us what they like, we see through them, even though a lot of our sleaze ball elected reps can't tell the difference between a racist and a patriot. Now we need to harness the power of words against those who would sell our country.

Maybe we could find some very simple words or very short phrases to repeat and repeat and repeat to our reps, and to newspapers. Some emotionally charged words that if we say them often enough and loud enough, forceful and clear, maybe they will get on the defensive against OUR accusations and finally listen.

Maybe words like "sedition" "traitor", "pro-illegal" and "Anti-American" Any others?

And we need to keep on hitting on that word "Amnesty" as in "No Amnesty under any name!". or "If you vote pro-Amnesty, I and loyal Americans will vote you out." That ONE POWERFUL WORD WON THE LAST BATTLE , but we have more to do

Words?

Unemployed , impeached, imprisoned .

Good point. In the heat of the battle I used these words in my e-mails and calls to our legislators. And my current mantra is any future overtures at immigration reform shall not include amnesty in any way, shape or form. That is non-negotiable. In no way will I allow an illegal alien to be put on any path to U.S. citizenship.

It wasn't a word that turned the tide.............

It was the deafening sound of the "American" voice........

only one other word is needed! Communist!

Since the illegal aliens hold May 1st in such high regards, a communist holiday and the strong inclination towards socialist reform, I would say communist sympathizer would be a good phrase used towards illegals and those who pander to them.

How about "deport"?

Maybe if the illegals hear it enough they'll leave on their own.

I agree. COMMUNIST is the word. NO COMMIES IN AMERICA!!
