I know some people don\u2019t think this is a big issue to people, and it may be one of these issues that subsides and then regains prominence and energy, but make no mistake, both parties are very eager to have open borders, and at some point, somehow, some way, if the right leaders in both parties happen to ascend to the right positions of power, they\u2019re going to try for it again. And if they can\u2019t do it in one big bite, they\u2019ll do it incrementally. It\u2019s something that\u2019s not going to go away. It\u2019s something both parties at high levels actually want.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: February 28th, 2008, I made that prediction right here behind this (tap, tap) the Golden EIB Microphone. So here comes the New York Times story: &#8216;Obama to Push Immigration Bill Despite the Risks.\u2019 Big whoop! It\u2019s not a surprise to anybody. It shouldn\u2019t be a surprise, I\u2019m sorry. You know, May is amnesty month. We may as well call May amnesty month, because &#8216;Obama plans to speak publicly about the [immigration] issue in May, administration officials said, and over the summer he will convene\u2019 the now famous &#8216;working groups, including lawmakers from both parties and a range of immigration groups, to begin discussing possible legislation for as early as this fall.\u2019 But for those of you worried about this, the Obama &#8216;Administration officials said that Mr. Obama\u2019s plan would not add new workers to the American work force&#8230;\u2019 They\u2019re already here! All it would do is &#8216;recognize millions of illegal immigrants who have already been working here. Despite the deep recession, there is no evidence of any wholesale exodus of illegal immigrant workers, independent studies of census data show.\u2019 So &#8216;by recognizing that they violated the law, and imposing fines and other penalties to fit the offense,\u2019 we could wipe out their illegality and we could move on this, because we\u2019re a humanitarian country, and we believe in &#8216;family.\u2019 They\u2019re already working, so it isn\u2019t going to be a big hassle here. It\u2019s coming back. Told you. It\u2019s not news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Let\u2019s play audio sound bite 14.
