Obama's Labor Chief Hilda L. Solis has released a cute video, paid for with your tax dollars by the way, to inform workers who illegally entered our country that they have a "right" to "fair wages", and that the U.S. Government is prepared to help these illegals to secure their RIGHTS.

This should have be hosted by Rod Serling.

"Whether documented or not." !!! ???? Richie, you shouldn't post those fake, madeup right-ding-bat-wing things! And if it is true, what is the matter with you. Are you saying big bad business people have a right to screw poor people? Even if they are illegally in this country. Are you unAmerican wanting to trample on the little person. If the government can get them registered to vote and in a union, what's wrong with that.

They don't belong here. What is so hard to understand about that?

If they were not here they wouldn't get screwed. Any company who hires them should be fined and the CEO jailed even if they are not screwing them.

It's the law!

Sorry, I got lost there for a minute. Things that are happening in America are so unbelievable to me, I look around and think I've fallen down the rabbit hole.

So this is really the "Turn in Your Employer, and we'll give you amnesty and sign you up in a union" ad. Or, "Help Us Beat Back the Big Corporations" ad. Is it really a surprise to anyone that labor unions best friend Hilda Solis would do this. Solis is from California (surprise, surprise) and served in the House before Obama appointed her to head the DOL. Andy Stern spoke highly of her record supporting unions.

I'd like to know by whose authority she runs these ads. Obama and his gang don't even pretend to follow the rules anymore. Am I going to wake up tomorrow and have a new immigration law without a vote by Congress?



Sorry Yoda, I was being facecious with my previous post.

LOL!! BK; thanks for the laughs. Sometimes you have to find humor in the crap that goes on. I was waiting for our liberal contingent to post comments similar to your first post, and the fact that you did just cracks me up.

I would bet you won't hear from our liberal contingent on this... even they know how far they can argue without making themselves look totally and completely moronic!

This is a progressive concept so Liberals will agree with it. Liberals buy votes which is another reason they agree with this.

Personally I think a *real* left-winger would keep quiet about it. They probably know that saying "we should have a law protecting the wallets of those who break the law" sounds pretty silly.

Silly?; the point is, apparently the U.S. Labor Chief believes we already have this law and is prepared to bring the weight of the government to bear to protect illegals citizens "rights".

Ok, I finally had a chance to watch the video.

I'm speechless. "Whether documented or not"?!?!?!?!?!?

Calling an illegal alien an "undocumented worker" is like calling a drug dealer and "unlicensed pharmacist".

I want to see a followup to this put out by the Border Patrol where they say "Yup - it's confidential - don't worry about that silly 'caller ID' thingy"

Here's my message to the Secretary of Labor.

No - they do NOT have a right to be paid fairly because the very precept of the situation is ILLEGAL. They are not allowed to be there in the first place!

What part of "illegal" does she NOT understand. Oh, I get it, the part that replaced it with Newspeak "undocumented".

djplong, I am very proud of you. First for watching the video (even though you did respond without watching it the first time). And secondly, for getting the point. Keep your eyes opened and your mind opened.

It doesn't stop there, Djplong, concerning our laws aimed at illegals. Although Arizona's new immigration law is less onerous that the existing non-enforced Federal Law, Obama has vowed to sue Arizona and Mexico has signed on. It gets crazier and crazier.

P.S. I appreciate that your posts are almost never a knee-jerk reaction. If I had to guess, I would say you would, maybe, classify yourself as what is sometimes known as a JFK Democrat. Am I correct?

I don't understand where ILLEGAL imigrants have ANY rights except the right to leave. Richie, you made a comment in post #9 about illegal citizens. That is incorrect. Citizens would be legal, aliens are illegal.

On the Arizona law, I've always thought that the devil was in the "reasonable suspicion" clause. If police abused that, there would be justifiable court cases. As long as the cops can back up the reasons for their ID requests, it shouldn't be an issue. But I fear that one bad apple - all it will take is one overzealous cop or one cop overstrained to the breaking point - and there'll be a legal furball exploding.

I believe that illegals have SOME rights. For example, they have the right to have their Miranda rights read to them before we deport them. No reason we can't treat them like civilized human beings. But, make no mistake - DEPORT THEM.

As far as what I categorize myself? I don't have a label that I have any affectation towards. You're correct in that I like JFK, if pressed I'd have to say Thomas Jefferson was my 'hero'. There are some aspects of both major parties that I find ok and other aspects that, somehow, "turning my stomach" doesn't seem to describe my feelings appropriately.

In general, I'm more fiscally conservative and socially liberal. Let's spend money in government EFFECTIVELY and keep a "live and let live" attitude with anyone who's not breaking the law. If you have a law you think is bad, there's civil protest and petitioning for change. There's a proper way to do things. Above all, don't lie when trying to make the sell. It makes you look worse and people will immediately dismiss what you have to say, no matter what else may have been good in your message.

Sigh.. I'm rambling off to a tangent again....

LOL; I don't know why I inserted "citizens" into that post. I swear it wasn't a Freudian Slip. I need a proof-reader and I will be accepting applications shortly:-)
