Can you prove the bold, and i mean all of it together, not just that they cant speak English ???
It's the right wing that demonizes immigrants and makes these weird claims that Democrats favor illegals because they know they'll vote Democratic.
Now come the good parts.
a) The GOP's corporate masters are the main beneficiaries of illegal immigration. They love having millions of sub-minimum wage laborers in our workforce, holding down pay and benefits for American workers. So, the GOP talks a big game, but does nothing (like employer sanctions) that would be effective in limiting the flow of illegals. No, the reality is that illegal immigration is just another facet of corporate welfare, and that's something the GOP supports in every way it can.
b) Illegal immigrants, lacking citizenship, can't vote. Besides, as illegals, they tend to keep a low profile and the last thing they want to do is appear before government officials (even election officials) to expose themselves to arrest and deportation.
Like how 6 year old Elian Gonzales was rounded up and deported when Bill Clinton was president?
Glad the Democrats think differently...
I didn't like it then and I don't like the idea of this happening 11 million times - now.

Typical politician double-speak.
They are NOT mutually exclusive. One can be FOR beefing up our borders and getting stricter on NEW illegals coming in - without being all about putting 11 million people on trains out of the country.

So, enjoy the hypocrisy.
Why do you think Obummer wants to legalize them? He knows the Millenials will eventually realize they're the ones who will be stuck with paying for his looting of the treasury, so he's creating a new welfare constituency of Dem voters.
The so-called right wing does not demonize "immigrants". They object to illegal immigration and so do many left wingers. There is nothing weird about claiming that the Democrats want the Hispanic vote because they are promising amnesty for their ethnic kind here illegally in order to retain it. Of course many like the social programs of the Democrats also. If illegals are put on a path to citizenship it is only obvious that they will vote Democrat also.
Both parties are in the back pockets of corporations that hire illegal aliens. It's not just the GOP. The real hypocricy is only blaming the GOP. At least most of the GOP isn't pushing for an amnesty which will allow them to remain here and retain American jobs that we need. It's already been proven that some illegals do vote but the real problem is that the majority of Hispanics who can vote are demanding amnesty.
