They Want Citizenship and We Want Cheap Labor.

We are approaching the Mexican Holiday of Cinco De Mayo. That is when the Mexicans won an victory over the European Emperor Maximilian ,via Juarez and gained Mexican independence. A very important day in Mexican culture, as is July 4 th here. So some may ask just what does Cinco De Mayo have to do with our economy? Well it really has a lot to do with it when we expand everything surrounding why it even needs to be addressed.

Have you noticed the rallies and protests for these illegal workers marching along the streets of America demanding we give them citizenship? Yes, demanding. In my opinion our leaders are off hiding until after election is over because frankly they support them . In my opinion we are talking votes and cheap labor here no matter what anyone says and it is a crucial time in our nations history. One so significant as to what we will be if be at all as a nation that it should not go unchallenged. To think otherwise in my opinion demonstrates the profound ignorance of many for the topic and its implications.

In fact many of the most powerful leaders in our Congress are all for Comprehensive Immigration reform, as are our three candidates for President, how strange? Yes the same who profess they will bring us change, but is it the change we seek and want? That my friends is totally your choice. Yes these candidates from both parties, all three and even while 80% of us said we do not want it, are going to get it approved as they say by their own words. It sits on the docket even as I write. Notice that they never mention the vast majority who are against though. Rhetorically one can ask do you really think they give a damn about what you think? Don't they say it openly to you and you still do not accept it?

So if we can step back from race and all the smog this issue is covered in intentionally and we take a logical moment to examine the facts of what is driving it all, with an open mind for what I am saying, we can go in two directions. The first nothing but an ethic group exercising their heritage. I do believe that is certainly the main element. However, is there another motive or agenda to be gained by allowing it, fostering it, promoting it even when standing far off and washing your hands of it in innocence?

Lets consider this possibility? In order to bring about SPP and the North American Unions acceptance which allows for open borders through Mexico, The United States and Canada, Comprehensive Immigration is a means to enhance the completion of that treaty. After all votes turn into support and support into passage . So in my opinion this is all about creating an acceptance by the public to allow this. Certainly those who migrate illegally, but get to vote in our elections, are for this and if these people are allowed citizenship for violating our law they will be for it as well. Why would they not be? Do we need a Moo here?

So can we start to understand that to think it will not come about because any of these politicians say so is to be naive at best. Do you not think the push to bring substantial numbers of Hispanics into our nation and open the door for them at every level of our society is not a vital component to their ideology and plan for the Global market? No this is not about Hispanics my friend and if you think that then why even read any further? There are many Hispanics who came legally, have families waiting and have worked their way up through the system the hard way only to see these others who violate the law get what they and no one else can.

Let me ask, do you think our leaders do not know these people break the law and they have looked the other way for years, Democrats and Republicans. Do they know when they steal ID it is a felony, yes a felony? No ID no JOB. So, is it logical to assume that who accepts that ID is an accomplice to a crime? Oh, they don't know? Rhetorically might I ask if you got a bridge for sale? Does it matter to you when we are supposedly a nation of law and people profess to be decent and even a believer?

Now let me ask you this? Just why are we teaching our children, our babies about a national holiday the Mexicans wish to celebrate? Yes I said teaching. Just go to any local school and see for yourself. Ask them if they teach about the Alamo? Yes another great battle of people to free themselves of oppressive leaders? Yes, who by the way were Mexicans. Fought by the way by many American Indians, frontiersmen, blacks and yes Mexicans and people of other cultures. So just why aren't they learning about our culture, our language, our way of life, our heritage? Is that unreasonable? Do we do the same for the many nationalities and races and ethic groups that comprise this nation?. Why those who break our law and flaunt it? Why can't we have an Eric the Red day, or a Garibaldi day, or a Geronimo day, or any day for that matter, why just their special day when even traditional days such as Christmas and St. Patrick's or Columbus Day are all under attack? Do you see a double standard anywhere? Do not all cultures have a significant day in their history? Why have we pushed the Spanish language on our population? The answer my friends is not about the holiday itself it goes much deeper.

Now as I have already stated, the celebration of Cinco DeMayo in of itself, the education of our young and exposure of our young to other cultures is not a negative. However, and we must consider the however's, in my opinion the indoctrination into acceptance of another nations culture and the gradual changing of our nations culture is. We do not go out of our way to make up little Irish Flags or dress in traditional garb for that day, do we? We can wear green if we elect but that is but choice. We do not foster even Christmas on anyone. Nothing wrong with that.

So, if our young grow up, as they are, being indoctrinated into a one world perspective then the concept of free and independent nations is no more. Go see if geography or history is taught any longer? It is all lumped into social science. The Creation and Implementation and above all an acceptance of a one world order is made easier as the cultural walls disappear and open borders with associated migrations take place. Is not Europe coming to task with this even as you read this article. In Italy and other nations where immigration has deluded their culture people are concerned about their individual national identity and it came out strongly in their last national election of just a few weeks ago.

If this ideology continues along the path it is currently on what that forebodes is the end to all nations as sovereign entities with unique identities, cultures, languages and people. Yes and even those Mexicans who now celebrate Cinco DeMayo. There just will not be anymore French, Italians, English, Mexicans, Americans, etc, etc, etc.

Is this bad? Well read my prior article on "The New World Order and you make a choice" on another web site. Could this be a fundamental reason for much, not all of the conflict in this world? It is not an imagined reality it is a real possibility.

Hey these people should be proud of their heritage, that is while they still have one. That they won a great victory in Mexico against oppression and freedom from foreign rule should not be diminished for them, but do these poor have what they won today and from their own countrymen? No they have oppression. Think not then why are they here? Take away the right to defend yourself, your freedoms, your homes and ability to surviveand you have what Mexico is today. needl;ess to say one of the richest men in the world comes from there. How strange. Did you think they were all poor? In effect they won a holiday no more. Are they used as the bovine of us all? Yes celebrate all you want to, as you should. Be happy and respect your heritage and culture and you know something I have no problem learning about it and celebrating with you, but and that is a big but, it doesn't pertain to me and mine. Nice to know but we have many great victories and historic events as well. Let me ask if they know them? Do they celebrate them? Yes like I said, how about the Alamo, San Jacinto, where Texas won its independence. What about Valley Forge or any great historical events of our nations birth? Hear about Yorktown, Lexington and Concorde and Boston Common and what that meant to America? Hey, how dare we bring those up.

So is it unfair to ask why we must all be subjugated to their language, learn their culture and traditions but they evidently do not have to learn a damn thing about ours, why? Shame on you all. Many of you don't even know what a Republic even stands for and is. Yes, rhetorically even many who profess to be believers and patriots. Yes talk about caring and God even while they are exploited.

Its about time they learned about a Republic, law, the Constitution and about for the common good and the significance of it. Certainly, in my opinion "our" educated so called leaders need an education in that more then them. It is also about time our church leaders stood their ground against sin for what it is and not shroud it under another guise. Speak to their exploitation and the greed or are they as that bovine they make us out to be? As far as I know God did not qualify the Commandments even for the poor.

Our the government and their own admission states Comprehensive Immigration, as defined, will do nothing to stop the flow of illegal workers. So just who are these men and woman of honor who profess before God one thing but do the opposite? Are these the same you wish to entrust with our nation?

Now Immigration it is not. There is not one legal description for what these people are doing and have done. Anyone with any content between the ears knows that. Yet they dare talk of Americans as having to be Humanitarians and Samaritans and yes do what Jesus would do and all the while they profess while they do not do or know. Yes and all the while knowing that these illegal workers are exploited beyond belief. Yes, even those in the church hierarchy know that truth. Rhetorically could this be strictly an empty pew problem? Just read Robyn Blumner, "Its just a penny a pound, people". Don't think so take a drive through any migrant town and see for yourself. Exploitation no, just can't make a profit large enough. See you in church.

Why do they get free education, medical services, social services, help of all sorts for breaking the law, stealing ID and all the while Cardinals, ministers and other church hierarchy look the other way and yes in the name of God. No outcry of their treatment at the hands of their own nation, no. No marches around the Mexican embassy. No outcry over their exploitation there and here, no, little to none. To say this is not the truth is a lie in my opinion.

Do they deserve citizenship over those who followed the law and are still waiting, some for years? Yet they will show outrage when one points out the truth. Humanity certainly, help yes, but face reality as to what is the root cause of their being here and they do not see the exploitation, the sin, the broken oaths, or law?

Yes it is sin in every single aspect. Yes and you actually trust these so called leaders who are running for office?. Now before you run and speak out of ignorance and call me a racist or just plain anyone because I shook your tree, know that I advocate a fair shake for them. I have put it into writing years ago. I do not condone sin, stealing, the breaking of law and rewarding of such. I understand why they came here and I understand they serve a purpose. I also understand they need to be treated fairly and receive a fair days pay, benefits for their work and be competitive for a job here. I and many are not against that but we are against how they came, and how they are being treated and what they demand for their actions and the reasons that are being overlooked all in the guise of light and good. Yes and if they serve this country and fight die and are injured then they and their immediate family deserve immediate citizenship, period. They do more then many Americans who wave the flag from behind the lines.

So my friends don't demand what has been taken, by the breaking of law and by sin when others who have followed the law, wait and languish for the chance you took illegally. Don't talk to us who follow the rule of law, expect it from our leaders and then see the blatant disregard for it and then to be called racist or worse. Shame on you that you could stand there and even say it.

No it is not about just the holiday for that is the catalyst for something much bigger. It is about justice, truth, character and no title, position, profession can change the facts and the truth. When we truly place the common good of all men first, Mexicans who come here for their families to work and fulfill their dreams and certainly Americans we will come to a just resolution for all. Until then we will have what we have and that my friends is in my opinion a facade.

Yes, struggling with the world and life but well. I've missed you as well and just replied to your latest. I'm writing on the alternate site Problogs and doing well there. Mom has been in and out of the hospital over the last 8 weeks, my wife had to go to Italy for 5 weeks to bring home her mom, who I now care for and all in all they used to think I was a wild and crazy guy when I was younger and now I definitely am. I try to maintain an upbeat approach but I have to say I'm getting worn down. Too much time to see the world as it really is. But you my friend, among others on Searchwarp, are a bright and shinning light. Your work is fabulous! Reagrds as alwaays, robert.
