Default Amnesty...

This will be the next agenda so might as well bring it up now. Obama will and soon to replace all the voters the dems have lost.

I'm guessing he means "amnesty."

Thanks for correcting my spelling Frau...I attempted to correct the title but only a mod can do that

To further elaborate on the 10's of thousands of immagrants in the country illegally also cannot participate in democracy amongst other things. Amnisty would make them 'instant citizens' and voters indebted and greatfull for their new found citizenship.

Oh, well, yes, that makes sense. Can't see it being popular if this is changed. Where has it been indicated that Obama wants to do this?

Really?? I thought you were talking about felons. Why would illegals get instant citizenship? And the right to vote?

Well, we're already going to be a Latin American country in 100 years, I guess this would accelerate it. If true.

Pah, that is nothing.

In Britain they run a campaign, "give your vote", where British citizens with the right to vote are called to pass on their right and give their voting right to foreigners in foreign countries, preferrably Afghanistan, Ghana and what was the third one? Iraq? That way foreign people should get a chance and feel invited to vote for the British parliament on the other side of the planet. It makes them participating in the democractic process in good ol' damn insane totally crazy Britain.

It makes the Gutmenschen feel well to have demonstrated their own good willingness, kindness and good-heartedness that way. Now isn't that lovely. I'm moved and touched at the bottom of my heart. Stop it or I must cry.
