Dear Mr. Fantasy Play Us A Tune, Something To Make Us All Happy

Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel said at the recent La Raza (NCLR) convention that the Democrats wll not attempt comprehensive immigration reform until the second term of a Democrat president. He’s assuming there there will be a veto-proof Democrat Congress and Democrat POTUS for the next 8 years. Considering the current Democrat Congress has a 14% approval rating, it appears Mr. Fantasy is doing some serious fantasizing!

Needless to say, Hispanic immigration reform activists were less than impressed with Emanuel’s 8 year long promise to kick the can down the road of their pet issue. Juan Salgado, board chairman of the Illinois Coalition for Immigrants and Refugee Rights said “I interpret (Emanuel’s) comments as a lack of courage on what they know is right”. To say the least.

Poor Juan! He is just now getting a clue about what we have known from the beginning and what Emanual has proudly stated—-that the Democrats are not interested in reform or governing—-they just want power and all the perks that go with it. The Democrats will do anything to get power, even if it means throwing those unpopular illegal immigrants under the bus.

This is your wake-up call Juan. The Democrats don’t care about you or your issues, they just care about your vote.

Mr. Fantasy just told you so.
