BLAST FROM THE PAST. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMAS IMMIGRATION SPEECH: INTRODUCTION.

 As I expected, the MAGATS are turning to the ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION CARD to help MISDIRECT ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ANTI-CONSTITUTION RHETORIC THAT INFECTS MUCH OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. After all, if you CAN NOT LEGALLY, INTELLECTUALLY AND/OR MORALLY JUSTIFY THE ACTIONS OF DER FUEHRER TRUMP, AND HIS GANG OF FASCIST UNDERLINGS, ATTACK A GROUP WITH LITTLE IF ANY POLITICAL POWER, WHO LITERALLY CAN'T FIGHT BACK.

Does it matter that it has nothing to do with the CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES, and  ATTEMPTED COVER-UPS OF THE GOP CRIME SYNDICATE? Nope. Rally your dwindling supporters by misdirecting their already limited attention span from events that are actually harming the American People, to a crisis you have manufactured, ignoring the following:

THAT THE PROBLEM OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS NO DIFFERENT NOW THEN IT WAS UNDER TRUMP, OBAMA, BUSH, CLINTON etc., The only real difference, was the proposed ways of dealing with it. We know what TRUMP, DESANTIS, ABBOTT and the rest of the NEO-NAZIS would do, but there is another way. However, that would have meant listening to the countries first BLACK PRESIDENT, AND USING RATIONAL AND WELL-REASONED SOLUTIONS THAT WOULD BENEFIT THE U.S. AS A NATION NOW, AND FAR IN THE FUTURE. (That would have made the country even stronger, but RUSSIA would not stand for that, and we know what that led to in 2016.)

So, as a reminder to DEMOCRATS AND OTHER PROGRESSIVES, HERE IS PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMAS IMMIGRATION SPEECH, AND MY COMMENTARY. (BROKEN DOWN INTO SECTIONS, AND REPUBLISHED ONE AT A TIME.)

QUICK HITTERS.

POST #16.  NOT AIRING PRESIDENT OBAMAS IMMIGRATION SPEECH.

I WONDER WHY?
(First Published on 11/21/2014.)

What a Proud moment for CBS, NBC, ABC AND FOX.  Deciding not to give the President 10-15 minutes Air Time to explain his Decision regarding Immigration. After all, no one really cares, right?

I mean, how important is it to hear what the President has to say on the Issue, before passing Judgment?  It's not like opponents will pick and choose certain areas of the Text to Criticize, and take them out of context.

That has never been done before.

It wouldn't be something like a Public Service to have the President of this Great Nation, Speaking Live and Direct to its Citizens on an Issue of Historic Importance?

Opponents will never use a snub like this, to claim that there is some kind of CONSPIRACY BY THE PRESIDENT, to avoid speaking to a National Audience. IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT HE ASKED FOR THE TIME, AND WAS TURNED DOWN. THEY SAY HE REALLY DIDN'T WANT IT.  SO, IF THE PRESIDENT WAS REALLY HONEST, HE WOULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR ANY TIME AT ALL.

OPPONENTS CLAIM THAT MAKING HIS CASE TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC WAS SOMETHING HE NEVER WANTED TO DO.  THEREFORE, ACCORDING TO THIS REASONING,  ASKING FOR FACE TIME WITH THE CITIZENS OF THE U.S., WAS A WAY NOT TO GET IT.

(Yes, there are those who are pushing this incredibly Convoluted Nonsense, to let the NETWORKS OFF THE HOOK.)

But we know this often happened to past Presidents , being turned down for requested time to address the Nation.

Now where is that Classic Piece of Mindless Drivel that says there is a Liberal Bias in the Media?

OH, IT WAS EXEMPLIFIED LAST NIGHT.

Good thing Corporate America is around to protect us, from anything we might hear the President say.

PRESIDENT OBAMAS IMMIGRATION SPEECH: COMPARE THIS TO DONALD TRUMPS "IMMIGRATION POLICY." PART 1.

 INTRODUCTION:  AS THE U.S. CONTINUES TO GRAPPLE WITH DONALD TRUMPS "POLICIES," I THOUGHT A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE WOULD SHOW US HOW THEN PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA ATTEMPTED TO ADDRESS THE IMMIGRATION PROBLEM. 

(First Published on 11/25/2014.)

Let's try a Novel Approach. Ignoring what the Political Pundits on Television and the Radio Have to say, and actually READ THE TRANSCRIPT FROM PRESIDENT OBAMAS IMMIGRATION SPEECH.

It is available online.  So, if you are interested, why not Download it, before passing Judgment.

The following Posts on this Topic, are my Thoughts and Opinions taken directly from the Transcript.

Let's get started.

He opens by praising the Two- Hundred Year+ History of the U.S. welcoming Immigrants from around the World, and the Advantages it has given the Country over other Nations.

However, he goes on to say:

"...Today, our immigration system is broken, and everybody knows it.  Families who enter our country the right way and play by the rules watch others flout the rules.  Business owners who offer their workers good wages and benefits see the competition exploit undocumented immigrants by paying them less."

From this passage we can take the following;

-  The President is acknowledging the State of the Immigration System, AND THE NEED FOR IT TO BE FIXED.

-  That the way the system is currently operated victimizes;  Legal Immigrants who follow the Law, and Honest Business Owners who offer good wages and benefits, who see competitors using undocumented workers to save money.

The President goes on to say;

"All of us take offense to anyone who reaps the rewards of living in America without taking on the responsibilities of living in America."

-  In other words, the Advantages and Responsibilities go hand and hand.  With one comes the other.

LOOK FOR PART 2.

SHORT SUBJECT: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A REPUBLICAN AND A UKRANIAN?
