La Pandilla de los 8 y la amnistia del momento

Bueno, hoy dia estan ambos pratidos viendo a ver cual se descalabra mas en su prisa por recompensar a la masa de extranjeros criminalmente presentes en la Nacion.

La iniciativa "bipartita" compuesta por los Democratas Charles Schumer, Dick Durbin, Bob Menendez, Y Michael Bennet (de Colorado), y los Republicanos Lindsay Graham, Marco Rubio, Jeff Flake y John McCain... Enrealidad el unico Republicano novato aqui es Rubio ya que los demas habian apoyado la propuesta del 2007 bajo Bush que es esencialmente la misma que la de hoy dia (palabras de John McCain: “I’m very pleased with the progress,” McCain said. “It’s not that much different from what we tried to do in 2007.”)... En este kabuki politico que supuestamente redundaria en votos conservadores para el partido se olvidan que la mayoria de esos individuos que buscan legitimizar creen en un gobierno mas grande y mas activo en la vida de los ciudadanos que lo que tenemos hoy. Esa no es una ideologia que embone bien con la de los conservadores.

De hecho, ya en el 1986 habian prometido hacer valer la ley y opor no hacerlo estamos aqui otra vez...

El porque ponerse quisquilloso al manejar esta masa multimillonaria de gente es un tema importante pues segun nuestros fundadores de la Union:

*George Washington, in a letter to John Adams, stated that immigrants should be absorbed into American life so that “by an intermixture with our people, they, or their descendants, get assimilated to our customs, measures, laws: in a word soon become one people.”

*In a 1790 speech to Congress on the naturalization of immigrants, James Madison stated that America should welcome the immigrant who could assimilate, but exclude the immigrant who could not readily “incorporate himself into our society.”

*Alexander Hamilton wrote in 1802: “The safety of a republic depends essentially on the energy of a common national sentiment; on a uniformity of principles and habits; on the exemption of the citizens from foreign bias and prejudice; and on that love of country which will almost invariably be found to be closely connected with birth, education and family.”

Hamilton further warned that “The United States have already felt the evils of incorporating a large number of foreigners into their national mass; by promoting in different classes different predilections in favor of particular foreign nations, and antipathies against others, it has served very much to divide the community and to distract our councils. It has been often likely to compromise the interests of our own country in favor of another. The permanent effect of such a policy will be, that in times of great public danger there will be always a numerous body of men, of whom there may be just grounds of distrust; the suspicion alone will weaken the strength of the nation, but their force may be actually employed in assisting an invader.”

The survival of the American republic, Hamilton maintained, depends upon “the preservation of a national spirit and a national character.” “To admit foreigners indiscriminately to the rights of citizens the moment they put foot in our country would be nothing less than to admit the Grecian horse into the citadel of our liberty and sovereignty.”


En fin, los problemas que ocasiona este ejercicio de impunidad rebasan por mucho cualquier atractivo real o imaginado que pueda representar.
