Wonderful. Now a Republican Compares Arizona to Nazi Germany.


Can't we move past playing the Nazi Germany card? Even Republicans are playing it while pandering to the Hispanic vote.

The Hill reported:
Rep. Connie Mack (R-Fla.) ripped into the new Arizona immigration law today, comparing it to Nazi Germany.

“This law of ‘frontier justice’ – where law enforcement officials are required to stop anyone based on ‘reasonable suspicion’ that they may be in the country illegally – is reminiscent of a time during World War II when the Gestapo in Germany stopped people on the street and asked for their papers without probable cause,” Mack said in a statement.

“This is not the America I grew up in and believe in, and it’s not the America I want my children to grow up in,” he added.

15.7 million American's are jobless and DHS issues 1,130,818 new Green Cards to foreign nationals


15.7 million American's are looking for work in the post 2007 recession. That job is made more difficult by the Department of Homeland Security issuing 1,130,818 new Green Cards to foreign nationals, allowing them to compete for the few jobs available. This is insane.
The Department of Homeland Security has just reported that during 2009, they issued 1,130,818 new Green Cards to foreign nationals, allowing them to work legally in this country. That number represents the fourth highest number of cards issued in one year.

750,000 of the new Green Cards were given to the families of U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents.

The top four recipient nations are as follows:

-Mexico…164,920
-China…receiving 64,238
-Philippines…60,029
-India…57,304
