Donald A. Collins: Why Did Brat Win? In the End, It’s the Numbers, Stupid - "So let us review. There are now 320 million of us. That means we added over 100 million people since the disastrous 1965 changes to immigration law. Even if we secure the border, the already present aliens and their offspring will lead to hundreds of millions more in the decades ahead."

Why Did Brat Win? In the End, It’s the Numbers, Stupid

The main problem with mass immigration isn’t anything abstract or ideological—it’s just the numbers. And the Eric Cantor bombshell shows that middle class Americans are beginning to understand that sheer numbers are threatening to overwhelm them.

Of course, even as the consequences of our evolving immigration and economic disaster are becoming clear to most people, the Great and the Good are waving them aside. After all—the Dow is climbing ever higher and that’s all that matters to most people on the financial TV channels and elsewhere in the Main Stream Media.
But something is stirring, as the first Majority House leader has been ousted since 1899. And of course, the MSM is doing its best to pretend it is about something other than immigration. Most of these fall flat.
  • They say it was a victory for the “extremist” Tea Party—but Brat got little DC Tea Party help
  • They say it was low voter turnout—but the percentage of victory was decisive, and there were actually more voters than in the previous primary
  • They attempt to link it to broader issues–even though the candidate itself hammered on immigration throughout the entire campaign.
Immigration patriots may be tempted to ask: “Wow, are people finally getting it?” But most Americans have finally gotten it for a long time. They have favored less immigration for decades, but the opposition of Big Business, disingenuous religious leaders, and a slavishly Open-Borders MSM have frustrated real democracy. They work to create a phony momentum for Amnesty even when there is no real grassroots support. For example, even now the media is working with the Roman Catholic hierarchy to whip a phony story about a “Catholic problem” for Republicans who don’t want to abandon American sovereignty. [“Boehner’s Got a Catholic Problem on Immigration Reform,” by Christopher J. Hale, Time, June 3, 2014.]
Let’s get real about the immigration situation today. The system is broken–but not in the way the MSM says. Businesses seeking cheap labor are dumping the costs of immigrant welfare on the taxpayer. . . .
