Teddy Bear & Grenade: Dream Act Amnesty to Displace and Replace Americans
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qz0qjxFNpbA
The Nightmarish Dream Act Amnesty is a political 'Teddy Bear with a hand grenade in it" to those that understand the bill would eventually lead to millions of innocent Americans being DISPLACED AND REPLACED in our colleges, in our jobs, and in our ballot boxes and elections.
The Democratic leadership in Washington is seeking a few Republicans to support this Amnesty legislation that would grant citizenship rights to 2-3 million, then eventually 12-20 million illegal aliens in America.
The Democrats plan to pass this Amnesty, which most Americans of every race oppose, over Christmas just like the Healthcare bill.
As ALIPAC's President, William Gheen, explains on Fox News the passage of the dream act would DISPLACE AN REPLACE the political influence of the Tea Party Movement, the Fox News viewing audience, and the vast majority of Americans that support the enforcement of America's existing immigration and border laws instead of any form of Dream or Comprehensive Amnesty.
Last week, Tomas Hernandez Lopez, 41, accepted a plea deal for sexually assaulting a 5-year-old girl he was babysitting. The multiple assaults took place 10 years ago. He had been living as a fugitive until his luck ran out in September.

According to court documents, police were told in 2000, that Lopez had assaulted the little girl on multiple occasions in the apartment where she lived with her mother. An arrest warrant was issued, but the Mexican national would elude the police for the next 10 years...
[Full Article]Act Likely to Adversely Affect American College Students
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A new report from the Center for Immigration Studies examines the costs and likely impact of the DREAM Act currently being considered by Congress. The act offers permanent legal status to illegal immigrants up to age 35, who arrived in the United States before age 16, provided they complete two years of college. Under the act, beneficiaries would receive in-state tuition. Given the low income of illegal immigrants, most can be expected to attend state schools, with a cost to taxpayers in the billions of dollars. As both funds and slots are limited at state universities and community colleges, the act may reduce the educational opportunities available to U.S. citizens.
The Memorandum is available online at http://cis.org/dream-act-costs. Among the findings...

But Oakland's ID card will double as an ATM debit card, the first of its kind in the country.

[Full Article]Defeating the so-called DREAM Act must be a top priority before it provides an uncontrollable citizenship path to thousands of illegal immigrants, says Republican U.S. Rep. Steve King.
On the surface, the act would provide a road to citizenship for students who are illegal immigrants. But the Iowa Republican also noted that it would allow students to sponsor their extended families on that path.
“We calculated that a single individual could bring in 357 people on a family reunification plan before we ran out of room on our spreadsheet,” King says...

On November 5, Mexican national, Ramon Neri, 23, admitted to driving drunk and causing the crash that took the life of a father of five, Tika Koirala, on Christmas morning last year.
Neri had a Blood Alcohol Concentration of .16 at the time of the accident.
Neri tried to play upon the court’s sympathies, saying that he first walked across the border when he was only 15, ending up in New York in order to help his family. Through an interpreter, he said: “I was the one that was helping them stay afloat financially.”
Over the next several years, he went back to Mexico, only to return to this country again. During that time, he was arrested multiple times in both New York and Nashville. Among the arrests, there were several for driving without a license.
The widow of the man he killed, Bhima Koirala, was also in court and told her own story of hardship. She and her husband came to the United States with their five children a year ago from Lilai, a small island near Indonesia. They came here in search of a better life, she said.
Koirala told Judge Mark Fishburn: “Who is going to look after my family and my children? I'm ill-equipped. After my husband's death, I've got so much trouble.”
Looking directly at the illegal alien, Koirala said: “I want him punished.”...

As Harry Reid and the Democrats dream of passing a soft amnesty program during the lame duck session, U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney says to count him out -- with one exception.
The Tequesta Republican issued the following statement on the DREAM Act, which would allow illegal immigrants brought to the U.S. as children to gain legal resident status if they enroll in college or join the military:
“Immigration is fundamentally a national security issue, which is why any immigration reform must secure our borders, uphold the law, and reward those who follow the rules.
“Passing the DREAM Act would provide another incentive for individuals to come here illegally. Granting benefits to students who are here illegally would worsen our immigration problem and undermine the rule of law...
