Nation of Immigrants

Once upon a time, this country believed in slavery. And wide spread immigration. And English only in the public arena. And strong homeland security. And traditional values such as traditional heterosexual marriage.

Why is it that the modern American left is willing to make "progress" in all of these areas yet they stubbornly cling to their notion that America "is a nation of immigrants"? In their usual hypocritical ways, they contend that antiquated American values and traditions should be altered while others should remain as they always are. How do they decide which are which?

It seems to me that the average Democrat voter is what's known as a "useful idiot", and is being conned into dismantling America one step at a time as the international socialists silently destroy America. The breakdown of families leads to State solutions for low-income or single parent homes. Gay "marriage" and legal battles fought by the ACLU chip away at religous principles and could eventually lead us to a point where practicing religion outside the church or home is illegal (after all, don't the roads and sidewalks belong to the State?).

However, if the flow of immigrants ever stopped, the globalist movement would suffer tremendously. 1/3 of our federal prisoners are illegally here, similarly immigrants are more likely to be on welfare. Instead of the wealth of America being squandered via socialist programs, it could once again be spent on reinventing our manufacturing industries, modernizing our nation's infrastructure, or working to reduce our federal debt.

Not only that, but I have been hearing more "mainstream" people appearing on television, radio and major print media raising the same issue I've had for 2 years. How can we deploy the US military to the middle east and elsewhere to wage a "War on Terrorism" while leaving our homeland so vulnerable via weak border security and politically correct deportation procedures. Law enforcement agents all over the country have given up even trying to detain illegals because they inevitably disappear after being released by a judge who trusts the promise from a criminal to appear at a future hearing.

It is absolutely mind boggling to me how inept and ineffective our officials are at defending the country and the American people who have come here legally and who make the country what it is. So mind boggling is it that I just can't believe these problems are accidental. Unfortunately, I think the generation that came of age in the 60's and 70's has such a stranglehold on our colleges, media, legal system, and political scene that their agenda of international socialism is actively being advanced daily. Hopefully enough independent thinkers will realize it soon enough before the Republicrats cause such a decline that we cannot recover.
