See, I told everyone that the American public can still affect decisions in Washington D.C. It just takes everyone working together.

The U.S. Senate bowed to the public swell of anti-amnesty bill/illegal immigration. Still, many politicians, including President Bush, don’t get it.

In a speech today he said this when asked about his Amnesty Bill failing. “The American people want immigration reform and Congress has failed them”

Well Mr. President, the American people wants the U.S. Government to enforce the laws already on the books. We didn’t want YOUR AMNESTY BILL! Look at the polls. Perhaps when you start working for the people and stop working for corporations and stop trying to pass legislation giving illegals Amnesty in hopes of tieing up their future votes, you and the Republican Party will start earning some of America’s respect back.

On a sad note, Mexico’s El Presidente said that failure to pass the bill was “a shame”. I’m deeply saddened for El Presidente, aren’t you?

MEXICO CITY (AP) — President Felipe Calderon said Thursday the U.S. Senate made a “grave error” by killing legislation that would have led to the legalization of millions of unlawful immigrants, most of them from Mexico.

Calderon said the Senate’s failure to pass the bill will close the door to legal immigration, permit continued illegal immigration and human rights violations, and decrease security on both sides of the border.

He added that the bill would have been a “sensible, rational, legal solution to the immigration problem,” and that the Senate’s decision will negatively affect the competitiveness of both the United States and Mexico.

“It worsens the possibility of progress and prosperity not just for the immigrants, but also for the citizens of the United States,” he told a news conference held with visiting Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega.

“The North American economy could not prosper and advance without the labor of Mexican and Central American immigrants.”

Calderon has pushed hard for immigration reform while harshly criticizing a 700-foot (200-meter) border-security fence approved by Congress and President George W. Bush.

Salvadoran President Tony Saca also lamented the Senate’s decision to kill the immigration measure, saying, “What a shame. What a shame.”

I also found interesting video’s at www.ImmigrationWatchDog.com. Take a look at them and remember, the people shown in these videos are the same type that President Bush, Trent Lott and other Amnesty lovers were trying to give Amnesty too so they could become U.S. Citizens. (just ignore the Ron Paul ads on their site, they can’t be right all the time :) )

Another great blog I found is Blog4Borders. While there, I found this very timely video everyone should watch. Keep in mind when watching this video that the people at the protest is the same type of people that the Amnesty Bill would have granted immunity to. Yeah President Bush, this is the type of people we want in the U.S.

Warning: There is strong language in this video not suited for young years.

    I’ve found fully 50% of the people who support Ron Paul do so because they consider immigration to be their critical issue. It’s not mine, but it is theirs. I think that’s saying something (good) about Ron Paul.
