AMNESTY IS NEXT!

Below is an editorial from Jeffrey Kuhner of The Washington Times and the president of the Edmund Burke Institute, a Washington-based think tank. This was in the September 28, 2009 edition of that paper:

"The waves of illegal immigration represent an onslaught on America's historic and cultural core. The great myth of our time, promoted by ... the left and the neoconservative right, is that the United States is a creedal nation. They argue that the country was founded upon abstract ideas embodied in the Declaration of Independence. ... This is a historical fraud. ... John Adams said, "There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide."
   "In other words, the Founding Fathers were not only republicans, they were nationalists who believed they had established a distinct and unique nation based on a common language, faith, heritage and culture. America is an outgrowth of Christianity and English civilization. Its roots are European. The previous waves of immigrants who came to its shores [years ago] not only deliberately assimilated, but embraced a common national identity. They became Americans.
   "This is not the case with the army of illegal immigrants. The combination of uncontrolled immigration with multiculturalism is a recipe for balkanization—the fracturing of America along racial and ethnic lines. ... Many Hispanic radicals want to return the southwest states back to Mexico. They think amnesty will accelerate the process of reacquiring former Mexican territories.
   "Immigrants are no longer required to learn English. The fastest-growing TV and radio stations are those broadcasting in Spanish. Everywhere one goes—ATMs, restaurants, state motor vehicle departments—Spanish is prevalent. Many urban schools in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York teach bilingualism. We are no longer one people who share the same language, culture, history, customs, heroes, literature and traditions. The bonds of national union are slowly being torn apart.
   "Mr. Obama already has shown he is the most leftist president in U.S. history. His statist policies and massive budget deficits [have] crippled the private sector, ...
   "Mr. Obama is an internationalist socialist. His ultimate goal is to erect a liberal ruling class to forge a Democratic majority coalition—one that would dominate for decades. Amnesty would put millions of illegal immigrants into the voting booths—and into the welcoming arms of Democrats."
