Americans Are Un-American, Says Nancy Pelosi

            President Obama met with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and assured them that he is still committed to their apparent racial agenda of rewarding illegal aliens (most of them Hispanics) with legal status and eventual citizenship.

            “The president made it clear to us that he is a man of his word,” said Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY), who chairs the Caucus. Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) added, “The president said more than any of us expected him to say. He was clear, eloquent and determined in letting us know that we’re all together on the route to comprehensive immigration reform [i.e. amnesty].”

            When the charge for amnesty comes, one of the people certain to lead it is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). At a recent meeting in San Francisco, generally not reported by the media, Pelosi made it known where her heart and loyalties lie. Before an audience of legal and illegal immigrants, the House speaker proclaimed, “You are a very special people. You are here . . . to take responsibility for our country’s future. That makes you very very patriotic.”

            Pelosi expressed opposition to federal immigration raids to arrest illegal aliens. Repeating the standard propaganda line of the illegal alien lobby, Pelosi claimed that the raids split families, forcing parents to go home and leave their children in the U.S. She tried to make this situation sound typical. In any case, when separations occur, it is the illegal parent who splits the family, by not taking the kids back with him or her.

            In Ms. Pelosi’s estimate, it would seem, the majority of Americans are un-American. A recent Rasmussen poll found that 67 percent of her countrymen support surprise raids to identify and deport illegal immigrants. But in her mind, one must conclude, there is nothing “special” or “patriotic” about loyal, law-abiding American citizens. For her, some of the most special and patriotic people are foreigners who show contempt for our laws.

            When is the amnesty train coming down the tracks? It’s hard to say, but given the leaders we have in the White House and Congress it is definitely coming. As loyal Americans prepare to stop it, just as they did in 2006 and 2007, they should recall the truly insulting remarks of Speaker Pelosi.
