The Congressional Hispanic Caucus visited the White House and apparently told the president that they weren’t going to vote for the health care bill if illegal immigrants weren’t allowed access to the program, because I guess only Hispanics are illegal immigrants:

Officially, the purpose of their meeting was to talk to the president about healthcare.

But CHC members, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said the group’s message was clear: Drop your insistence on preventing illegal immigrants from accessing the public exchange, even if their only option is to pay for insurance plans entirely out of their own pockets.

A public exchange is a nationwide pool of health insurance providers that would facilitate access to coverage for individuals and employers.

Obama has promoted the concept as a key component of healthcare reform.

The House healthcare bill already bars illegal immigrants from enrolling in the public option and from receiving subsidies for health plans.

But if the final Senate healthcare bill contains the exchange-prohibition provision that’s in the Finance Committee bill, the provision could also be included in a conference report.

And CHC members have said publicly that they would have a very difficult time voting for any healthcare bill that contained such a provision.

Why is this group not considered racist? Why are none of the caucuses determined by race considered racist? It baffles me. But that’s beside the point here.

I want every Democrat who supports secure borders and is opposed to illegal immigration, and you know who I am talking about, to recognize that this is a group of Democrats who are doing this. It isn’t bad enough that they support this unconstitutional takeover of health care, but they want all the illegal aliens in the country to participate in it also.

Will that promote more illegal immigration or will is dissuade illegal immigration? You know the answer as well as I do.

This is the modern Democrat party. It’s far left, socialist and open borders. Is this the party you want to be a part of?
