You
know who they are. You've seen
them marching in your streets, holding candle-light vigils, and appearing on
television and radio news programs.
They are the "D.R.E.A.M." children - the children of the
illegal immigrants who, "through no fault of their own", have been
allowed to enjoy the fruits of the American dream that should have gone to
someone else.
They
want you to think that they, and their parents, should be allowed to stay in
the United States because, they've become "Americanized" and it would
be "inhumane" to repatriate them to their nation of origin. What they DON'T want you to think about
are the children of the lawful
immigrants who have not yet had a chance to come to America simply because their parents are trying to do it the right way.
All
around the world, children of lawful immigrants are waiting faithfully to enter
the United States of America in compliance with her laws. They are hoping to emigrate from
countries like Somalia, Haiti, Vietnam, Estonia, Bosnia, Lebanon, Russia,
China, France, Bulgaria, Italy, and just about anywhere on the planet from
which immigrants have traditionally come to contribute to America's vast human
diversity. These children
have not yet had the chance to receive an American education, enjoy an American
sporting event, or celebrate an American Christmas - all benefits granted on a
regular basis to the so called "D.R.E.A.M." children who have been
allowed to step in front of everyone else.
You
might think that the "innocent" compassion-seeking D.R.E.A.M.
children would themselves show some sympathy during this holiday season for the
children of the lawful immigrants-in-waiting that they have displaced. But that will not be the case. Instead, during the Christmas holidays,
they have chosen to cast aspersions.
Recently they made headlines, calling Arizona's Governor Jan Brewer a
"grinch" because she is one of many who have finally said
"enough" to them.
Through her actions, Governor Brewer has told the illegals that they
shall go no farther. She has said
that in the State of Arizona, illegal immigrants, and the children whom they
hide behind, shall obey the same rules that immigrants from all around the
world are expected to obey.
If
you see the story from the perspective of the
law-abiding-immigrants-in-waiting, then it is Arizona Governor Jan Brewer who
is Santa Claus, and the DREAM children who are the grinches who stole
"Christmas-in-America" from the children of the lawful immigrants.
