My fellow Latinos, Obama is playing you like a piñata on Immigration reform!
Posted by ai at 4:18 PM
A few days ago President Obama gave a speech in Texas calling on Latinos to mobilize and push their elected officials to pass the Dream Act.
What the president didn’t tell the people was that he and the Democrats had control of both houses of congress; Obama didn’t do a damn thing about immigration reform. He had the votes in the Senate and in the House of Representatives to a pass the Dream Act with ease. And the GOP was powerless to stop it just like they were powerless to stop the passage of ObamaCare.
But, it didn’t even come up for a vote!
Why?
The answer is simple and it’s important for Latinos to understand a plain truth—Democrats love Latino votes more than they love Latinos—period!
The Democrat Party looks at Latinos as just a glob of people who are expected to vote Democrat—no thinking involved—no chance of individual freedom—just one thought is necessary—vote Democrat—shut up and go away until we need your votes again!
This is why nothing happened with the Dream Act when they had a chance to pass it. They purposely wanted to use the issue come re-election time to get Latinos, hot and bothered, motivated to vote Democrat again.
It’s a hustle, or you may call it the old bait and switch!
Obama can say anything in a speech. What’s more important is action. And what Obama “didn’t do” speaks for itself.
Fellow Latinos, how long will you let yourselves be hustled by the Democrat Party?
