Debbie Schlussel: How Do You Say "Ugh" in Spanish?: John McCain's Bi-Lingual Memorial Day Ad . . . for Amnesty?
Feliz Memorial Day from John McCain.
Yes, it is true that many names of those who fought and died in WWII and especially in Vietnam and Iraq/Afghanistan are surnames like Gutierrez, Torres, etc. But most of those Hispanics are U.S. citizens. And yes, the ones who risk their lives to serve our country who are not naturalized should, indeed, get citizenship. But they are a tiny, infinitesmal fraction of a fraction of those seeking citizenship, the 20 million who are here illegally.
So why did John McCain use today--and the dead bodies of so many Hispanic American patriots who were either born here and/or are here legally--to push for Illegal Alien Amnesty in a campaign ad which aired today in New Mexico? I'll give you a hint: 44% or almost 1 of every 2 New Mexico residents is Hispanic. Sorry, McCain, but this ethno-baiting has those dead Hispanic American soldiers, who were mostly here legally, turning over in their graves. Watch this abomination:
They died for our country, therefore we should . . . open wide our borders and give citizenship to those who broke the law, as well as assorted terrorists and other hardened criminals--and do what the enemies they fought could not?! Hello . . .? Hola . . .? As Salaam Aleikum . . . ?
We are ALL G-d's Children. But some of us are here legally, and others are not . . . and shouldn't be rewarded for it. Yo Soy Americana, but not through amnesty.
