Speaker Pelosi calls law-breakers ‘Patriotic’, but to which nation?

Confused Speaker Nancy Pelosi decided to tell illegal that there were patriotic by coming out of hiding and joining her at a speaking engagement, “The speaker, condemning raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, referred to the immigrants she was addressing as “very, very patriotic.””

I want to clarify some things:

The Oath of Office for members of the House of Representatives:

“I, (name of Member), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

Federal Law, as provided for under said Constitution, the Immigration and Nationality Act specifies exactly what is considered to be a legal, and thus illegal alien in this country and authorized the Attorney General to take appropriate measures to ensure that illegal aliens are apprehended, held, and then imprisoned / deported.  Congress passed this legislation and she, as a congressman is sworn to uphold it.  Calling those who break this law patriots, and her neglect at ensuring the law is followed is at the very least failing to uphold her oath, and at it’s worst is seditious.

As a citizen, I certainly would like to know to which nation Speaker Pelosi thinks these law-breakers are patriots?   Certainly not the one in which she is Speaker of the House, sworn to uphold and maintain the laws of the land.  It is one thing to disagree with a law, and as a member of Congress she has it within her power to change the law, it is a totally different thing to promote the breaking of the law and to go even further by condemning the U.S. Government for following the same law Congress has passed.  Is this the type of person to whom you want to give more of your money and freedom, to have more authority over you and your life?
