America in the Balance

By

Hugh McInnish

I am hopeful that the outpouring into the streets of an estimated 500,000 illegal Mexican aliens this past weekend will do the opposite of what the outlaws expect. I hope that millions of legal Americans, native-born and naturalized, will see in these dynamic videos that we have seen just how far the absurdity of our immigration policies have gone. If seeing those Mexican flag-waving hordes doesn’t bring our “leaders” to their senses (ordinary Americans have been in possession of their senses all along.) it will be difficult to hold back the despair.

Below is a fax I have sent to out friend Senator Jeff Sessions. He is on the pivotal Judiciary Committee and has a good record in respect to illegal immigration. Still, he needs to know that we are behind him.

Below is a fax I fired off to him today. I hope that you will do the same thing. Please fax or call. You can call one of Sessions’ state offices, or call Washington. Go to his web site and you will see all the numbers.

It’s time for patriotic ardor!

Dear Jeff,

I am appalled at the images we have seen this weekend of the illegal Mexican hoards marching in Los Angeles and elsewhere. Incredibly they are demanding that the Government excuse criminal behavior. I suspect, and I fervently hope, that everyone will see this outrage for what it is, and that, contrary to the expectation of the organizers of these gangs, it will stiffen the resolve of those arguing for sanity. I pray that this will be our long-needed fire bell in the night.

I thank you for your votes against the illegal lobby, and I ask you to please fight against any bill that has so much as a hint of an amnesty provision in it.

I think it not an exaggeration to say that the fate of the country hangs in the balance. More, much more, is at issue here than wages, employment, the purported need for chicken-pluckers, and even short-term humanitarianism. I say it bluntly: cultures are not equal. The Mexican culture is as apart from our culture as the night is from the day. Any who would argue otherwise would only expose himself as a fool. To allow millions of these miscreants to remain here would move our culture toward theirs, and would ultimately produce the tragedy of bilingualism.

And from there? Language is the great unifier of a nation, and if we have two languages we may expect to dissolve into two nations. Any who might doubt this should count the Mexican flags being waved by the demonstrators as they marched this weekend. I will stop there, but it’s not hard to imagine that the chain reaction would continue. And if our American culture should ever go, certainly Western Civilization will go with it.

Thanks for the work you are doing, and all the best,

Hugh
