An analysis on Obama amnesty speech

A timely post from www.NumbersUSA.com analysing the President's speech. This follows this previous post about the President's immigration speech and this post about the MURDER of ROBERT KRENTZ, who the protestors and boycotters won't give a solution for, but will call Americans racist for trying to prevent another MURDER, and this post which shows that there are 30,000 openly illegal immigrants in the border town of El Paso across from the recent Juarez shooting.

Our take on Obama amnesty speech
MAJOR INSULTS IN THE PRESIDENT'S AMNESTY SPEECH TODAY DEAR FRIENDS,
That was a very sad spectacle at American University this morning. To see all those national leaders of religion, unions, business, etc. applauding the President's appeal for more foreign workers during a time of high unemployment was disheartening.
Be sure to go to your Action Buffet and take all actions that are shown there to protest this constant war by our nation's elites against America's working class, college students and taxpayers. Here are a few of the key signals that I heard the President send today.
You can read my analysis of all of them in my blog.
PRES. OBAMA DOESN'T KNOW THAT AMERICAN COLLEGE GRADS ARE HAVING ONE OF WORST YEARS EVER FOR FINDING A JOB?
"And while we provide students from around the world visas to get engineering and computer science degrees at our top universities, our laws discourage them from using those skills to start a business or power a new industry right here in the United States. Instead of training entrepreneurs to create jobs on our shores, we train our competition."

JOBLESS AMERICANS ARE A SPECIAL INTEREST WHO MUST BE OPPOSED?
"In sum, the system is broken. And everybody knows it. Unfortunately, reform has been held hostage to political posturing and special-interest wrangling -– and to the pervasive sentiment in Washington that tackling such a thorny and emotional issue is inherently bad politics." Folks, just who ARE the "special interests" who are blocking "comprehensive immigration reform?"

THE LIE THAT DEMOCRATS ARE UNITED BEHIND AN AMNESTY
Interestingly, Mr. Obama did not turn his speech into the Republican-bashing screed that the open-borders groups had requested. Various political publications had indicated that he had been urged to turn his speech into a major campaign effort to inspire voters to turn on Republicans in the fall congressional elections for having blocked "comprehensive immigration reform." My guess is that the President realized that the truth in what several of those publications suggested -- that there are more votes to be gained this fall by opposing amnesty than by promoting it. Nonetheless, Pres. Obama implied several times in his speech that getting the amnesty through depends totally on Republicans. The further implication in that is that he has the Democrats all lined up.

PRESIDENT USES HIS FAILURE AT ENTRY/EXIT SYSTEM AS EXCUSE FOR AMNESTY "In fact, because we don’t do a very good job of tracking who comes in and out of the country as visitors, large numbers avoid immigration laws simply by overstaying their visas." This was one of several references that the President made to his failure to enforce immigration laws already on the books. But instead of pledging to do a better job in the future or acknowledging that as President he has it totally in his power to fix the problem he describes, he says the failure is the reason we must give permanent access to U.S. jobs to all illegal aliens in the country.

PROF. OBAMA DOES NOT UNDERSTAND IMMIGRATION HISTORY
"Of course, the tensions around immigration are not new. On the one hand, we’ve always defined ourselves as a nation of immigrants -- a nation that welcomes those willing to embrace America’s precepts. Indeed, it is this constant flow of immigrants that helped to make America what it is. . . Each new wave of immigrants has generated fear and resentments towards newcomers, particularly in times of economic upheaval."
Read my short explanation of how Mr. Obama's historical perspective is skewed and non-factual. TOUTING WORKER VERIFICATION WHILE REFUSING TO SUPPORT IT IN CONGRESS "And we’re implementing and improving a system to give employers a reliable way to verify that their employees are here legally. But we need to do more. We cannot continue just to look the other way as a significant portion of our economy operates outside the law. It breeds abuse and bad practices. It punishes employers who act responsibly and undercuts American workers. And ultimately, if the demand for undocumented workers falls, the incentive for people to come here illegally will decline as well." In fact, Pres. Obama continually opposes requiring businesses to verify their new hires. The SAVE Act in Congress dies on the vine even though it would easily pass if Senate and House leaders would allow a vote.
Read my analysis of how he holds verification hostage -- along with border security -- for the ransom of getting amnesty passed.
Despite all the flowery language and his attempts to paint the majority of Americans as immoral because they oppose an amnesty, the President today failed to obscure the fact that our immigration system is broken because the person living in the White House -- as the three occupants before him -- refuses to do his job of enforcing the nation's immigration laws. THANKS FOR HELPING US MEET OUR JUNE FINANCIAL GOAL AND FOR FORCING PRES. OBAMA'S SPEECH TODAY First, 99% of the activists at NumbersUSA express great appreciation to the 1% of you who made donations to meet the June operating budget goal. I wrote to you earlier this week that we were not even halfway to the goal. Several thousand of you stepped up to the bucket and tossed in donations that amazingly brought us up to the goal in a little over 24 hours.
THANKS.
NumbersUSA Action is entirely funded by citizens making small donations. It takes 1% of activists doing so every month. Over a year, 12% of you pay the costs for all 100% to flood Congress and the President with faxes and phone messages. Thanks to all of your faxing and phoning, Pres. Obama has had such a hard time finding interest in Congress to pass his amnesty that he had to resort to the publicity stunt at American University today. Because of the faxing and phoning you will do the rest of this week, most Members of Congress will remain afraid to follow the President on his call for more foreign workers. I don't take victory on this for granted. It will happen only because all of you continue to step forward and act.
