Conservative Bloggers: On The Rise And Winning...UPDATED!!

~Snooper~

Illegal immigration. I, the one and only Snooper, have made the case time and again, as have many other of my peers, that the Leftinistra, whether they be Democrat, Independent or Republican, will do whatever it takes to achieve a new voter base and, they will try time and time again to back-door legal status of the bazillions of illegal immigrants internal CONUS.

They need a new voter base because their moonbat fringe kook loons are an international embarrassment and through their total lack of moral fortitude, have murdered untold millions of Americans via abortions. Well done, morons. Nothing like killing off generations of voters to make a name for themselves, eh?

Gov Spitzer has scrapped his brazen attempt to legalize illegal immigrants via the ruse of public safety by issuing driver's licenses as a means of "identification". Another Leftinistra ploy has been sand-bagged by us in The New Media. This is great news. As we have stated before, there is nowhere to hide.

[...] The governor's office signaled to New York lawmakers Tuesday that Spitzer will say at the meeting that he is shelving the plan and that immigration is a federal issue to be handled by Washington, according to congressional aides who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because no formal announcement had been made. [...]

Yes, it is the job of the Fed to handle and the Fed knows exactly what the vast majority of the law-abiding citizens want and Shamnesty ain't it.

Suitably Flip:

[...] Maybe this rare Spitzerian backpeddle had something to do with the rookie Governor's re-election support dropping to just 25% just a year after he was swept into office in a 69%:29% landslide. Or maybe he just wants to spend more time explaining about his status as Norman Hsu's highest-paid politician (with three times as much direct funding as Senator Clinton.)

Speaking of whom, I wonder whether Hillary still supports, doesn't support, supports the illegrant immigrant licensing plan, now that even its architect has abandoned it. [...]

I don't think Hillary even knows. Check out mm.com for an interesting take:

[...] Don't celebrate too hard, though. Several other states continue to provide licenses to illegal aliens and it is the Bush administration that continues to approve the use of the illegal alien matricula consular card.

Spitzer's retreat is a significant victory and a symbolic victory, but a small one in the continuing struggle between Sanctuary Nation and Sovereign Nation. [...]

Hot Air:

[...] About 70 percent of New Yorkers oppose the license plan, according to a Siena College poll of 625 registered state voters released Tuesday. The poll, conducted Nov. 5-8, had a sampling margin of 3.9 percentage points. [...]

JWF:

This should make life much easier for Mrs. Clinton in the upcoming debate. [...]

[...] I'd hedge a guess and say maybe something about his other problems, including his free falling poll numbers, may have helped him make up his mind.

Put nothing past this sneak, however. As soon as he thinks the coast is clear, he'll try this again. The Hispanic lobby will be all over him for backing off, so look for an end-around at some point.

No doubt...they keep killing off babies and POOF! there goes the voter base.

The Grey Ghost This right jere is a GREAT rant!

[...] Then too is the fact that your wife continues to underestimate the intelligence of the American voter with her double-talk on key issues. The idiot governor of New York just announced that he's dumping his licenses for illegals plan. Why? Because most Americans are concerned about terrorists, saw through Spitzer's stupidity right away and declared themselves against it right away (thank goodness that most Americans aren't liberals!) Instead of taking a stand against this insipid idea, your wife played it cautious. But presidents can't afford to be cautious, they need to make firm decisions or else the electorate loses faith in them. By trying to play both sides of the fence Hillary is showing more and more signs that she can't lead and that puts her at risk of standing for nothing, as well as everything, and then losing.

CAN I HEAR AN AMEN??

[UPDATE I]

And the Leftinistra, the anti-Americanists whine:
Talk Left: [...] No, leadership is doing what's right. Gov. Spitzer needs to get some spine.

More to come we are sure...we'll keep y'all posted.

From Fred08:

Coyotes are the men who prey on illegal aliens, helping illegal immigrants return to the U.S. over our southern border, sometimes after these immigrants have been deported, two, even three or more times. Apparently our Democratic friends in Congress have learned a thing or two from the “coyotes,” because just when we’d thought we’d sent the illegal-immigrant amnesty bill packing (at least for this year), Congress has ignored the public’s wishes and is trying to sneak what amounts to another amnesty bill through.

After several false starts Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) continues to push the DREAM Act. What is the DREAM Act? A nightmare.

The act would allow any illegal immigrant who entered the country before the age of 16 to receive conditional residency, which could then be converted to a non-conditional residency. These illegal immigrants can apply for this form of amnesty so long as they are under 30 and they weren’t older than 16 when they came to the country. And, of course, there is no way of proving when they illegally entered our country. After all, they are undocumented. Aliens would qualify even if they received and ignored a removal order if that order was received before they were 16.

Essentially, the DREAM Act puts some illegal aliens in a better position for residency than legal aliens who have played by the rules.

In addition to this stealth amnesty, the DREAM Act, would repeal a portion of the 1996 federal immigration law that prohibits any state from offering in-state college tuition rates to illegal aliens unless the state also offers in-state tuition to all U.S. citizens. Thus, if the DREAM Act passes, any state could offer such a break to qualifying illegal aliens.

At a time when hard working Americans are being asked to foot the bill for costlier college educations, we shouldn’t be offering special deals to people here illegally. We need fewer, not more, incentives for illegal aliens to come to this country.

Given the widespread public uprising over the comprehensive immigration reform bill, you’d think the Senate had learned its lesson. Apparently not. Instead of focusing on legislation the American people clearly want nothing to do with, Senate Democrats are planning to bring the DREAM Act up for a vote today. Instead, they should focus on doing the work of the people, and pass the appropriations bills that have been awaiting their attention for months now.

[UPDATE: Sean here. The DREAM Act failed to get the 60 votes needed to invoke cloture.]

From The Heritage Foundation:

Just three months after the Senate immigration bill met its well-deserved end, amnesty advocates in the U.S. Congress resumed their efforts. Recently, Senator Richard Durbin (D–IL) announced on the Senate floor his intention to offer the Development, Relief, and Edu­cation for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act as an amend­ment to the defense authorization bill.

Read the rest at The Heritage Foundation to learn everything you need to know about this back door to Shamnesty.

I have, as of this posting, 73 pieces discussing the illegal immigration issue and therein, one will find the evidence of the Leftinistra trying to buy votes for their failing party. That is what this Shamnesty garbage is all about...a new voter base.

Entire generations of voter base for ALL parties have been murdered in the wombs of our women and America has lost MILLIONS of potential voters, murdered at the hands of the Democratic Party.

Is it any wonder why they are this desperate to buy a new base?

Update 12:52pm Eastern. Breathe a small sigh of relief. Shamnesty is defeated again. The DREAM Act has been beat back. The vote was 52-44, falling short of the 3/5 threshhold.

You know how the open-borders lobby works, though.

They’ll be back.

No rest.

Cloture fails in a vote of 52-44, roll call found here.

Our representatives heard us when we told them no amnesty to illegal aliens.

We spoke on this and provided the numbers here and here, in the last couple of days and everyone that fought so hard against the DREAM Act being rammed through the Senate is owed a huge thank you for taking action.

Related article from Fred File shows how the DREAM Act would have been a nightmare.

Before proponents of the DREAM Act start spouting off, learn a little about what the DREAM Act would have done.

This will undoubtedly come up again, but for now... GOOD JOB everyone and thank you again.

AMEN! America's citizens have won another war waged on their sovereignty.
