Dobbs: Bush, Congress tell working folk to go to hell
By Lou Dobbs    CNN
Wednesday, May 24, 2006; Posted: 9:46 a.m. EDT (13:46 GMT) 

Lou Dobbs says President Bush and Congress are part of an "elitist war on 
the middle class"  NEW YORK (CNN) -- President Bush says that the 
installation of the new Iraqi government was a "watershed event," but at 
the same time warns Americans of the challenges and loss as we continue to 
prosecute the war against Iraqi insurgents. Sen. Harry Reid declares that 
legislation that would render English the national language is racist.

Thirty-seven Democrats vote for full amnesty for all illegal aliens in this 
country, even though nobody really knows whether the number is 11 million, 
12 million or 20 million. The Senate Republican leadership demands that 
a "comprehensive immigration reform" plan must be passed before this 
Memorial Day weekend. And the president signs into law a tax cut that 
raises taxes on the educational funds of teenagers saving for college.

Never before in our country's history have both the president and Congress 
been so out of touch with most Americans. Never before have so few of our 
elected officials and corporate leaders been less willing to commit to the 
national interest. And never before has our nation's largest constituent 
group -- some 200 million middle-class Americans -- been without 
representation in our nation's capital.

George W. Bush's approval ratings have slumped to the lowest of his 
presidency. The approval rating for Congress is even lower, and nearly 
three-quarters of Americans believe the country is headed in the wrong 
direction.

But what is our government doing about that? The president is staying the 
course in Iraq and apparently demanding little of his generals to create a 
new, far more effective strategy for urgent success. Of course, he also 
wants a guest-worker program and amnesty of millions of illegal aliens. And 
Congress, faced with midterm elections in just over five months, is intent 
on giving the president what he wants and telling working men and women and 
their families, American citizens all, to go to hell.

Illegal aliens are more important to this Congress than securing our 
borders and our ports, more important than those legal immigrants who have 
waited in line and who follow the law. The Senate has added to the litany 
of lunacy that makes up what it calls reform: Illegal aliens would only 
have to pay back taxes on three of the past five years, they will not be 
prosecuted for felonies such as identity theft or purchasing or using 
fraudulent Social Security cards, and unlike millions of visa holders who 
have to leave the country to have them renewed, they may simply remain in 
the United States while this Congress and this president give away all the 
benefits and privileges of American citizenship.

This is an outright assault in the elitist war on the middle class. And 
working men and women who've already borne the pain of losing good-paying 
manufacturing jobs and having middle-class jobs outsourced to cheap foreign 
labor markets are faced with the onslaught of more illegal immigration and 
cheap labor into the American economy. This president and Congress talk 
about bringing illegal aliens out of the shadows while they turn out the 
lights on our middle class.

President Bush and his most trusted advisers tell us how well our economy 
is doing, how many jobs have been created and how so-called free trade will 
enrich the lives of the same people whose livelihoods these policies are 
destroying. 

It's hard not to think of the trusted adviser to Catherine the Great who 
sought to hide from her the embarrassing and shoddy condition of Ukrainian 
and Crimean villages by having elaborate facades built to divert her 
attention and to mask an uncomfortable reality. I don't know whether Karl 
Rove is President Bush's Grigori Potemkin or whether George Bush has 
created Potemkin villages all by himself. But the facades are cracking, and 
phony fronts of failed policies are quickly crumbling.

Six thousand unarmed National Guardsmen working as adjunct rear support to 
our undermanned, under-equipped Border Patrol is not border security. Three 
million illegal aliens continue to cross our borders and depress wages by 
hundreds of billions of dollars every year. The millions of manufacturing 
and middle-class jobs lost over the last five years have been replaced by 
lower-wage employment.

The president's faith-based commitment to so-called free trade will likely 
lead to a $1 trillion U.S. current account deficit this year and a trade 
debt of $4.5 trillion after 30 years of trade deficits. And while the 
president and Congress point to No Child Left Behind as a solution to our 
educational crisis, we're failing an entire generation of Americans whose 
test scores continue to fall and whose high school dropout rates would be 
embarrassing to a third-world country.

And a third-world country is what we will be if our elected officials don't 
soon come to their senses.
