Immigration Bill: Why Do Congressmen Sell Us Out?
by Charles Coughlin
Many ordinary Americans are shocked by the willingness of the Senate to sell out the American people and to give US citizenship to 20 million illegal alien Latinos. Don’t these Senators live in the United States? Aren’t they worried that their children and grandchildren will grow up in an America, which has been turned into a Third World country?? It’s bad enough that many of these Senators voted for NAFTA and GATT twelve years ago. Patriotic heroes like Ross Perot warned that NAFTA and GATT would eliminate millions of good-paying manufacturing jobs. Unfortunately, the treason steam-roller had considerable momentum and the Internet was too small back then to play a significant role. The “Treason Treaties” were passed despite the opposition of over 80 percent of the American people.
There is a hierarchy of things that motivate our Congressmen. In order of importance, these things are:
1).Love of power (Many stay in office until they die of old age.)
2).Fear of the Israeli Lobby (Many politicians secretly hate the neocons, but they’ll vote for wars under AIPAC pressure)
3).Selling out to big business (This is where the average Congressman gets the money to run for office.)
4).Last of all –ordinary Americans: (Congressmen only do something for us after appeasing the Israelis and big business. The more skillful Congressmen get big Defense contracts for their districts to keep unemployment down so they get reelected.)
This hierarchy is why it is so difficult to get Congress to do the right thing. The Israeli Lobby gave the green light for the war on Iraq and they want a war on Iran too. The rational thing to do in Iraq is to cut our losses and pull our troops out immediately. Unfortunately the Israelis want us occupying Iraq forever. It should be none of our business who runs Iraq, but because of the Israeli Lobby, we will be occupying Iraq for a long, long time. (more…)
