Rupert Murdoch: Immigration Reform Can't Wait: America Won't Advance If Legislators Act Like Seat-Warmers

By Rupert Murdoch, The Wall Street Journal

When I learned that House Majority Leader Eric Cantor had lost his Republican primary, my heart sank. Not simply because I think he is an intelligent and talented member of Congress, or because I worry about the future of the Republican Party.

Like others who want comprehensive immigration reform, I worried that Mr. Cantor's loss would be misconstrued and make Congress reluctant to tackle this urgent need. That would be the wrong lesson and an undesirable national consequence of this single, local election result.

People are looking for leadership—those who stand for something and offer a vision for how to take America forward and keep our nation economically competitive. One of the most immediate ways to revitalize our economy is by passing immigration reform.

Just how, Mr. Murdoch, do you suppose allowing an invasion of Latin hordes will move our country forward?

It will do nothing of the kind. On the contrary; we will regress into a third world dark age. It will serve to further dumb down the populace and provide an ignorant, easily controlled labor force for elitists like yourself, though. Maybe that's the whole point.

The second fastest group of illegals are Indians who often arrive on a guest worker, student, or visitor's visa and just stay.
