Gibbs: "the votes aren't there right now" for immigration "reform" (i.e., amnesty)
One hand giveth, the other taketh away (link):
The votes aren't there for the Obama administration to achieve its desired immigration reform, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Friday.
"We know the votes aren't there right now," Gibbs said during his daily press briefing about the congressional appetite for a comprehensive immigration reform package that would give illegal residents in the U.S. a path to citizenship.
"I think there's a seriousness in an effort, but in understanding that in 2005 and 2006 and even in 2007 there was not a majority yet to do this..."
The above follows Obama promoting amnesty earlier today. See that link for how Obama misled about "reform" itself; he might also have been misleading about his commitment to "reform".

The votes aren't there right now! well yes for now but within 10 years many third world people will have made the USA Into a drug dealers dream will become a total reality with 30 or 50 percent already here, the fact is we who understand what that means can see a future USA As some third world monkey house just like any other. The sad fact is most monkeys like this idea of a white free nation, but just like any other monkey nation in so called hispanic America whites will run it from gated homes in place that are conceal with big wall and whites living in a star trek world and our little brown brothers living in some 13 century world of total tyranny slifing into hell on earth, that is the new world orders dream and its going to happen.
