Jerry Brown finally comes out of the closet; FOR illegal immigrants, and AGAINST citizens

By: Erick Brockway (Diary)  |  October 18th, 2010 at 09:00 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

Most people reading this knew Brown would be a socialist-leaning Governor if elected in California. The only thing missing was something recent he might say to prove that point; he’s been playing the center up until now.

Behold, the closet door falls open. Apparently with Bill Clinton and Gavin Newsom by his side, Moonbeam just couldn’t help himself.

Via No Governor Moonbeam;

Glad to see Whitman is taking the side of the taxpayers.

At a campaign stop in Redding, Whitman pointed out her differences with Moonbeam when it comes to priority for admission to taxpayer-funded colleges.

She chastised Democratic rival Jerry Brown for suggesting at a recent rally that California is still wealthy enough to allow undocumented workers and their children to attend state universities if they qualify.

“Either (Brown) doesn’t recognize we’re in a budget crisis or he’s pandering for votes,” Whitman said, adding she’d give admission priority at public universities to taxpayers.

As he made clear at his speech at UCLA, Jerry Brown’s top priority is undocumented workers and their children.

More-

So when Jerry Brown says; “We have enough wealth to continue to have a great university and get every kid into this school that can qualify. Now when I say every young man and young woman, I mean everyone – whether they are documented or not. If they went to school, they ought to be here.”, what he of course means is more money California doesn’t have will go to people who shouldn’t be here in the first place, while people who should be given priority in state universities (people who are here legally) are given a lesser priority.

And while on the subject of money California doesn’t have, with billions in debt, Brown says “We have enough wealth…” meaning he’s going to take it from you if you live and/or pay taxes in California. Don’t think he’s just going to “get it from the rich”, because as I mentioned elsewhere, you are “the rich” if you make over $47,055 per year.

    Invasion by illegal ie “Criminal Aliens”

    Mr/Mrs Politician:

    Obviously you have never read the United States Constitution or
    else feel that in your ivory tower and wealth that it does not apply to you!!

    I feel you need to read the following and act according to the peoples wish
    not your wishes or special interests wish list!

    There are three references to the words “invasions,” “invaded,” and
    “invasion” in our U.S. Constitution:

    Article I, Section 8: “The Congress shall have Power To Provide for calling
    forth the Militia to execute Laws of the Union, suppress
    insurrections and repel Invasions.”

    Article I, Section 10:”No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any
    Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time
    of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with
    another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War,
    unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as
    will not admit of delay.”

    Article IV, Section 4:”The United States shall guarantee to every State in the
    Union as Republican Form of Government, and shall
    protect each of them against invasion, and on
    Application of the Legislature, of of the Executive (when
    the Legislative cannot be convened) against domestic
    Violence.”

    Your Oath of Office and sworn duties as referenced mean you must Act and
    put a Stop to the Invasion of all the Illegal immigrants we are experiencing.

    Our U.S. Constitution mandates that invasions shall be repelled by Congress.
    and that means the persons in the House of Representatives and the U.S.
    Senate. Our nation’s sovereignty must be protected.

    How can you even stand in front of a mirror and even look yourself in the eyes
    knowing you are a “Bought & Paid Ho” for special interests and the
    Democratic Party Hacks? Tell me I am wrong, please because I fear for the
    future of our country as you certainly don’t care about the people or our
    country!!

    for his special and protected classes.
    Bork’em. Support Meg and Carly.

  • securitymom

    Jerry Brown has been lliving off the public most of his life.

    Go Meg, go Carly.

    Quote from Ace:

    “Be the Wave”

    Mr. Brown says:

    “California is still wealthy enough to allow undocumented workers and their children to attend state universities…”

    Barack Obama says:

    “We (America as a whole) can absorb a terrorist attack”.

    My question to both of gentlemen (and anyone who agrees with them) is:

    “Once full, how much can a sponge (sucking up California’s budget and American lives in general) “absorb” before you are forced to wring it out?”

        Why is it that these liberals (who keep telling us WE are the stupid ones) can’t manage to grasp even the most basic of scientific principles… like saaayyyy… “saturation points”?

        Hell, I learned that in GRADE school!

    There is a program in effect in Texas whereby Mexican students can attend selected universities and colleges on the US side of the border. But IIRC it is not “free,” somewhere in the process there is some tuition paid to the US side schools from the Mexican government, kind of a voucher system the Mexicans use for their own citizens. I cannot argue the policy, but do know so far as attendance it is wildy popular and may be one underpinning factor of why the Rio Grande border SMSA (the US side) is one of the few regions in the entire country where – hang on – there has been no recession. Unemployment is higher than 9% (always has been) but the business expansion took off and, anecdotally, if you want a job you can find one there. Point is, principle that even education can’t be totally free, should be respected. It’s part of the education.

    Free school. Free healthcare. Free food. Free housing. Immediate citizenry by birth. No, we don’t encourage illegal immigration, not much.

    “Illegal” is even too soft. This IS an invasion. It is methodical, planned, intentional, designed, master-minded and overseen by political entities, smugglers, terrorists and drug cartels.

    MILLIONS of people deliberately entering a country to use and abuse that country’s system to their own personal advantage and/or criminal activites should be considered part of an INVASION. Since Mexicans have already taken part of our land in AZ — I mean, all those govt. signs basically say so, right? – then the word OFFICIALLY fits as well.

    It’s simple: Brown believes that the state of California and the taxpayers provide a never ending piggy bank for his liberal initiatives. Meg Whitman, as an extremely successful businesswoman, understands that is not how the world works in reality.

    Tell me those percentages in the final figure aren’t the California state income tax rates.

    If so, then God bless Colorado.
