Republican Platform For Hate And Fear - McConnell Open to 14th-Amendment Review

Could this soon be part of the Republican platform? Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has joined other members of his caucus in calling for Congress “to take a look at” reviewing the 14th amendment so that children of illegal immigrants born in the United States are not automatically given citizenship. “I haven’t made a final decision about it, but that’s something that we clearly need to look at,” he said. “Regardless of how you feel about the various aspects of immigration reform, I don’t think anybody thinks that’s something they’re comfortable with.” Jon Kyl and Lindsey Graham have called for changing the amendment in the Senate, while in the House Republican congressmen have drafted legislation that would deny citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants.

    This is racism pure and simple. Is anyone freaking out over the countless Canadians coming over the boarder illegally and staying here for years?
    NO, they are not. Why? They are white and blend in. The mexicans that are here are treated like modern day slaves. They do the worst jobs for the lowest money. It is so often these same racist bigots that hire the illegal mexicans. How many of these "politicians" in Arizona and Texas have house keepers who are illegal Mexican workers doing their laundry and cleaning their toilets? I'm sure most do. HYPO-CRITTERS!
