[quote:Anonymous Coward 30665644:MV8yMjcyNDk3XzM4NjUxNDAxXzYxMTM3M0Ew] We do not owe these people anything !! Not a dam thing, let them protest then let them get on a bus and go home to their own country! I am so sick and tired of hearing how Americans owe the world a living, we owe nobody anything! What Americans received over the hundreds of years we have been a country is what we as Americans have worked for..we sweated and toiled and made something of ourselves and our country...our young men died to protect this nation as well as the rights of others. Now we have a political party that makes apologies to the world for our success...it is not bad to be successful nor is it a bad thing to have pride in accomplishment. They have destroyed the pride of these United States and replaced it with contempt, issuing in bigotry by the truckload at a time when equality and true freedom was within reach for all not just for some. The American citizen cannot afford to payroll the millions of illegal aliens in this nation! We just cannot do it! This will bankrupt America! Things need to change and change fast ...my country is dying before my eyes and it is heart breaking! I really feel that at this point only God can save us, but why would he? We have gone the way of Rome...and perhaps we deserve what happens. [/quote]

] A senior Democratic senator predicted Sunday there could be massive demonstrations in Washington if House Republicans try to block a bill to grant legal status to millions of immigrants.
Sen. Charles Schumer (N.Y.), the lead Democratic sponsor of the Senate immigration reform bill, said House Republicans would likely spark massive civil rights rallies if they try to quash measures to create a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants already in the country.
“This has the potential of becoming the next major civil rights movement. I could envision in the late summer or early fall if Boehner tries to bottle the bill up or put something in without a path to citizenship — if there’s no path to citizenship, there’s not a bill — but if he tries to bottle it up or do things like that, I could see a million people on the Mall in Washington,” Schumer said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
Schumer said business leaders, evangelical leaders and CEOs of high tech companies would join the public call for action by the House on immigration.
Schumer has counted about 67 votes for the Senate immigration bill and believes close to 70 will support final passage later this week
