Thread: Obama tips his hand: no reform, just an issue

The Obama team would rather fuel racial tensions than pass comprehensive immigration reform. That is the upshot of this Washington Post report:

West Wing strategists argue that the president’s call for legislation that acknowledges the role of immigrants and goes beyond punishing undocumented workers will help cement a permanent political relationship between Democrats and Hispanics — much as civil rights and voting rights legislation did for the party and African Americans in the 1960s.

As a result, although the president is unlikely to press for comprehensive immigration reform this year, he has urged his allies to keep up the pressure on Republican lawmakers. [emphasis added]

Because, you see, if he passed a bill, the issue would go away. And then Hispanics wouldn’t be mad at the GOP. It is quite a buried lede. The story here is not as the Post’s headline reads: “Republican immigration position likely to alienate Latinos, Obama officials say.â€

The Black Panthers, Obama, and Eric Holder...quite the trifecta of power don't you think? The power to scare voters, the power to make Executive decrees, and the power to outspend the electorate in legal law suits. The power of selective enforcement of laws. This is our future.

As of now sucking up to the hispanics is a loser issue

The legal voting power of hispanics in America is only 8-12% and many of them agree with us

The libs got it in their head that the hispanics elected Dumbomba, That is not the case, the indies and mod repubs elected him because they couldn't stomach idiot McCain

The Hispanics have very little voting power at this time , even counting the illegals that are sneak-voting.

Besides , this country isn't suppose to be about hispanics , or blacks or any race , religion, color , creed , etc

It is the race baiters both black and brown that are making it so , starting with your racist president
