Illegal Immigration is No Joke (Video)

Last Friday, Congressman Zoe Lofgren, chairman of the immigration subcommittee, invited comedian Stephen Colbert to Congress to testify on the subject of illegal immigration.

Colbert testified in character, a parody of Fox News Bill O’Reilly.

Nancy Pelosi said, “It can bring attention to an important issue like immigration. I think it’s great.”

Steny Hoyer thinks Colbert was an embarrassment. Not to Congress, but to himself.

Here’s my take:

What do you think?

Very nice, but MUCH TOO LONG to be effective.
Cut it to 30-60 seconds.
Bless you.

I know people’s attention spans are short these days, but the thing is less than 3 minutes long.

Fine. Then make a second, shorter version. It has NOTHING to do with “attention spans.”

Well done. More people need to focus more on the exploitation of human beings and less on the cost of lettuce.

Agreed.

Duane, this is without a doubt, your hardest hitting, most sobering piece to date. It definitly speaks to all levels of society and feels like a call to action. Thanks for your contribution to our great nation and the new media.

Thanks for that comment, Saul. I appreciate it.

Now, more importantly, did you find your glasses?

Those silly glasses- they keep falling off every time I take a terrible spill and tumble down my stairs. Oh, my, G-D! I think I broke something! It Hurts! The glass from the broken lenses has gone into my bare feet again! I’m gonna sue you! I hate that!

Wow, what an incredible and eye opening video. It just goes to show you how really out of touch the Democrats are with this issue in particular. The problem that I have with the liberals is that they are so D*&%# inconsistent. Where are the feminists screaming about the treatment of these vulnerable women as they are raped when they cross the border? I know, they’re the same ones that talk about those peaceful Muslims while women are buried up to their waist and stoned to death for leaving an abusive husband or hung at the age of 16 because they were raped. Speak up N.O.W. you hypocrites!!!

It’s not about consistency. It’s about furthering the agenda. They don’t have to support our women, because it isn’t about women. It’s about liberalism.

And thanks for the compliment.

This is a very powerful, persuasive video. It brings the issue of the illegal immigration invasion home, to see personal tragedies to Americans we can relate to – who are like us.

And the Lib/Dems bring in the clowns.

Great job.

I saw your video featured on vdare.com – one my favorite web sites.

Keep the faith for our troubled nation.

I’ve seen estimates that 3,000 foreigners illegally enter our country daily, and until America changes the policies that encourage them (government handouts and lawsuits against overwhelmed state and local government trying to enforce our laws), the problem will only get worse.
