The consensus seems to be that the Republican dominated Senate Judiciary committee is going to vote to confirm Obama selectee, Loretta Lynch to be the new Attorney General (or at least send it to the full Senate for a vote). I think that is insane.
Pressed by Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, a leading immigration hard-liner, she said citizenship was not a right for people in the country illegally, but rather a privilege that must be earned. However, when Sessions asked whether individuals in the country legally or those who are here unlawfully have more of a right to a job, Lynch replied, "The right and the obligation to work is one that's shared by everyone in this country regardless of how they came here."
"WHAT ????
Sessions quickly issued a news release to highlight that response. Under later questioning by Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, (and probably a lot of coaching), Lynch clarified it, stating there is no right to work for an immigrant who has no lawful status. "Clarified" ? Or was it a pure lie just to get through the confirmation ?
I don't trust politicians at all, and especially when they say one thing, and then come back later and say another (after finding out what they said the first time would be damaging)
NO WAY IN HELL should this woman be confirmed, who is in support of the invasion of this country by cheap labor "troops" of Mexico, China, India, the Phillipines, et al, that is raking our economy over the coals, pillaging this country for hundreds of Billions$$$$ by remittances and human services payouts (the US paying their poverty bills)
