    They're not 'immigrants!'

    They're not 'immigrants!'

    Since Monday's announcement by a group of both Democrat and Republican Senators of a proposed so-called "immigration" reform bill, we have been bombarded by both politicians and media alike with admonitions of why this is the right thing to do for these "immigrants."

    Just for clarification, entering the United States illegally is a crime (A misdemeanor for the first offense and a felony for the second.).

    Federal law states: "Any alien who enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers . . . shall, for the first commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than 6 months, or both."

    See the penalties for illegal re-entry...

    While most people now refer to illegal aliens as "immigrants" and often use the blanket term of "immigration," even when referring to those who enter this country illegally en masse, it is doubtful that they realize the effort which has gone into convincing them to ignore the definite distinctions between the terms.

    Unfortunately, just as they have with so many issues, the left has co-opted the language in this case. For instance, the act of aborting a baby is no longer "abortion," but has been transformed into the less frightening term of "a woman's right to choose."
    Politicians and advocacy groups who continue to push for a so-called "path to citizenship" for illegal aliens conveniently ignore the fact that such a "path" already exists and it has been successfully taken by millions of people. Of course, it is not quick, and it does not reward criminals.

    Changing the language to soften or gain acceptance for an unpopular, or even immoral or illegal activity is simply a propaganda tactic.

    We are constantly subjected to such propaganda from the likes of President Obama and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich when they speak about the difficulties one faces as an immigrant to this country. Of course, they are not referring to legitimate immigrants, but to the millions of illegal aliens, now placing a huge burden upon this nation.

    While our success may be as a "nation of immigrants," we are also a nation of laws and turning our backs on either will undoubtedly spell our demise.
