IF THE GOVERNMENT IS LEGITIMATE, THE GOP HAS A WAY OF SHUTTING THE WHOLE THING DOWN

MSNBC'S RACHEL MADDOW DISCLOSES THE TIES OF THE GOP TO KKK AND GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWNS

Masterful as ever, Rachel Maddow last night reported on how the Heritage Foundation is pushing Republicans to retaliate against President Obama’s immigration plan with a government shutdown just like the one Heritage helped orchestrate in 2013.

As often the case is with Rachel, you wonder were the beginning of the story is taking us, and how and why this is important to today's news - and then she gets to the point, and the light bulb goes off in the brain, AHA - and this is why she is the best in her business, bar none, their is no comparison.

Who knew that some of the GOP best policies come from racists?

While the above story is disturbing, more mind numbing is just how dumb Americans are. Watch the below priceless gem.

Just when you think our country could be no more ignorant, a segment like this proves that the bar is still rising.

“IMMIGRATION REFORM FORCES PEOPLE TO BECOME CITIZENS AGIANST THEIR WILL”

JEFFERSON, LA — One reason Rep. Steve Scalise opposes the Senate’s bipartisan answer to immigration reform is because he insists it would force immigrants to become unwilling citizens of the U.S.

“There are a lot of people who come here, just want to work and go back home and not be a legal citizen that the Senate bill would actually force onto an amnesty track,” Scalise said that after a town hall in his district Friday. “If you look at the 1986 law, 40 percent that were eligible for amnesty chose not to go that route because they just wanted to work and go back home. And yet the Senate bill would force them to become American citizens and that’s not even what they want.”

He proposed that the country strengthen immigration enforcement and secure its borders instead.

But contrary to what Scalise suggested, at no point are the 11.7 million undocumented immigrants automatically enrolled or forced to become citizens. In fact, the bill’s path to earned citizenship is a rather difficult one.

Under the comprehensive immigration reform bill that was passed by the Senate, unauthorized residents can only gain citizenship over a minimum 13 years, after a multi-step process that first grants probationary legal status and later permanent legal status. Then, they must meet a long list of criteria for earned citizenship, including paying back taxes and fees, background checks, and a working knowledge of English. An analysis of the bill from the Congressional Budget Office estimated that 8 million of the approximately 11 million unauthorized residents “would initially gain legal status under the bill.”

With the unmet promise of immigration reform still hanging over the House of Representatives, it is convenient now to argue that the undocumented themselves do not want a path to citizenship. Last year, Rep. Trey Gowdy and Rep. Paul Ryan both claimed immigrants have little interest in the idea.
