Pro-immigration group opens D.C. war room
WASHINGTON (CNN) - A pro-immigration group announced Wednesday it is beefing up efforts to promote its agenda, eight months before voters head to the polls.
America’s Voice has hired pro-immigration operative Frank Sharry to lead the organization, which will focus on “mobilizing” immigrant voters, and establishing a “campaign-style … rapid response war room.” Sharry is the former head of the National Immigration Forum.
A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll released this week shows that immigration ranks fifth behind the economy, Iraq, health care, and terrorism on the list of the most important issues heading into the elections.
Um... they need a group to continue invading this country? How much more help do they need?
Looks like they are trying to counter NumbersUSA dot com
Mitt Romney will need to be on guard. He may lose his maid staff.
THAT IS A REPUBLICAN STRATEGY, TO MAKE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THINK THAT IMMIGRATION IS IMPORTANT, AND THEN SCARE YOU INTO BELIEVING McCAIN IS YOUR SALVATION!!!!!!
GIVE IT UP! SENATOR CLINTON IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SAVE THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!
NO MORE REPUBLICANS!!!!!!
NO LYING OBAMA!!!!!!
GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!
I am confused. Are they pro immigration or pro illegal immigration. Those are very different things.
Just what Washington needs, another special interest group.
Oh so they given up their sneak attack and infiltration for War plans.
Illegals are criminals. People who hire them are criminals.
NAFTA isn't the only thing sucking money out of our country.
So which campaign is Sharry tied to?????
ARE THE RIGHT WING RADIO GUYS' HEADS POPPING OFF YET?
Good. Immigrants' voice is not often heard, it should be.
That's it I've had enough. I am organizing an Anti-immigration group. The group will be called America's Natives. We are going to put a fence across the Mississippi River. Please send money.
Is this a pro-immigration or a pro-illegal immigration group. If it's the later, they have no business trying to influence elections.
Why not call it what it is: Pro-Illegal Alien group. Always that intentional and unfortunate muddying of the truth.
Good! We are a country of immagrants
Here we go. Votes for head of the line. Sounds like the democrats all right. Always trying to move the goal posts.
Immigrants are great; our country was built on immigration! Illegal immigrants, however, are criminals who should be thrown out!
THE AUDACITY OF OBAMA!!!!!!!!
Sounds like a good place for a NIS raid.
Seriously, what other country in the world allows people to enter their country without permission, then hands them the same rights and privileges as the country's citizens? These people are criminals. They are here illegally. They should be rounded up and sent home, where they belong.
