July 13, 2006: The Open Borders Mayor ...

He's lived too close to the UN for much too long ... Has he Canadian cousins / contacts ... (For more see Memory Lane below ... No one is illegal ... etc.)

My question: Who is paying for all the activism, anyway?



The Open Borders Mayor By Heather MacDonald, City Journal, July 12, 2006

[.... New York Mayor Michael] Bloomberg testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee’s hearings on immigration reform in Philadelphia, convened to counter the House’s simultaneous hearings on the costs and risks of illegal immigration. The mayor offered an eloquent defense of open borders. The flow of people into the United States is a force of nature, beyond mortal control, he said. We can no more stop the influx than a beachgoer can stop the tides. The decision about whether to enter the country and under what conditions is entirely the immigrant’s, not the American people’s.

[....] Mayor Bloomberg provided a valuable service with his testimony last week. He demonstrated that the belief that “no person is illegal”—watchword of the amnesty movement, popularized by Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahoney—will trump the willingness to enforce immigration laws every time. That’s why those who believe in the rule of law must insist on the “enforcement first” strategy for immigration reform: defer amnesty and the liberalization of immigration rules until border security and interior enforcement are demonstrably working. Mayor Bloomberg and President Bush’s “comprehensive” approach of combining amnesty and higher levels of immigration with a promise of increased enforcement will inevitably lose its second half along the way.

A must read ... all that stuff in the middle

A link from one who commented on my post "June 7, 06: CBC explores multiculturalism's demise" leads to a discussion of immigration and another side to the positive spin we've been forcefed by our propaganda organs. There are links from our own government's studies and other links.
