"Who in this country would not want to change a policy of kicking in doors in the middle of the night and sending a parent away from their families?" Pelosi told a mostly Hispanic gathering at St. Anthony's Church in San Francisco.
"It must be stopped....What value system is that? I think it's un-American. I think it's un-American."
Referring to work site enforcement actions by ICE agents, Pelosi said, "We have to have a change in policy and practice and again ... I can't say enough, the raids must end. The raids must end.
Ok, so that's pretty clear, yes? No more arresting illegal immigrants, because its mean. Got it, thanks Nancy.
On the other side of the aisle, Republicans are standing up behind Joe Arpaio, Sherriff of Maricopa County (Phoenix).
Ten Republican congressmen argue that a civil rights investigation of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office could have a chilling effect on other state and local police agencies that seek to crack down on illegal immigration.
The congressmen, responding to a Department of Justice probe into allegations of discrimination and unconstitutional searches and seizures by the sheriff's office, asked Attorney General Eric Holder to voice support for vigorous immigration enforcement and assure police agencies that they won't face similar investigations.
"It is important that state and local law enforcement officers and the public are reassured that the investigation is proceeding in a judicious and fair manner, and not for the purpose of politicizing or chilling immigration efforts," the 10 congressmen said in a letter to Holder on Wednesday.

Not to get too conspiratorial, but why on god's green earth would she be making comments like this? Should we not bother to even have borders any longer?
No secret conspiracy involved, this is the set-up for the "Illegals Can Vote Act" of 2009. All part of the larger Democrat Majority Forever effort.
Pelosi and company want to rule. They don't seem to care if they are ruling over a functional country or a big pile of shit, so long as they get to rule.
Stuff like this tells you just how lame the Republicans are. They can't win against this bitch? That's pretty feeble.
Next step will be the fairness doctrine, we can't have all these conservative types telling it like it is anymore, it's beginning to cause a nuicance for the dems.
And by the way, I don't always comment, Phantom, but you're right at the top of my blog reading list.

That is never getting old! Thanks for the laugh, Highwaypussy. Spend a couple more hours tapping out more spew for me to delete, clickety click!
Thanks Alex. I agree. The Dems have been setting up the Fairness Doctrine since they won in November.
Pelosi is also in process of bailing out the MSM. The Dems know they can't afford to lose their good friends in the Liberal media, so they are going to have a nice cozy arrangement where selected (read failing) outlets become essentially state-owned.
Which is fascism, really.
But, the McCain/Feingold bill laid the groundwork for this, by abridging the First Amendment. It'll all probably pass muster in the Supreme Court.
Thanks Johnny!

My, that was a nasssty one. You have quite a potty mouth, Highwaypussy. Very satisfying deletion, I must say.
