"...we are talking about selective amnesty of illegals..."

Yes, that is what "you" are talking about. The President hasn't said anything about amnesty yet.

As for the "Zimbabawing" thing I wouldn't worry about that too much. We imported them by the millions once it and didn't destroy this nation.

Again, when we open our eyes and do away with illegals, that will be the day we open our eyes and do away with any traitor, communist, illegals and what not inland. America might turn into a bloody civil war battlefield, but we have to do that. We have to open our eyes before we are struck a death blow while sleeping. Of course Bush et al want to prevent a civil strife from occuring, but it will have to occure and Congress might be inclined or might not be inclined to cave in, we will see, but this IS THE TURNING POINT ISSUE OF THIS CENTURY FOR AMERICA.

Either we do it and seek freedom through courage or we do not. The economy may end up suffering but that is better than a death blow while sleeping.

Yes --- even if we need immigrants --- I'm not sure we do, we'd be better off getting them from a variety of places. Legal immigration from Mexico is absurdly high --- more from just that one country than from anywhere else. What about discrimination on the basis of national origin? Why would foreign citizens from one national origin have more rights to come here than from other national origins?

A mixture of immigrants would prevent the Balkanization we're beginning to see, the immigrants themselves would soon see the advantage in learning a common language --- just like immigrants in the past did. We'd get back to the melting pot way of building our culture.

[FITZ]

Bush's plan seems to do nothing to end the problem with illegals. He plans on making an alternate path to legal immigration --- for all those who chose to ignore the legal paths that were already in place. There would be the legal immigrant, the legal-illegal immigrant --- but what about those who find the government too slow on matching them to a job? What if they don't want a background check or have to go through any red tape or fill out any form? They'll still come over just they way they had. And employers who won't want to pay the legal-illegals what Bush says they would have to pay, would just go ahead and hire the old-style illegal.

The liberal media will be falling over themselves trying to get this guy in front of cameras this week.
He's the Crowned Prince of Unappeasables. Buchanan Lite.

I have to agree. Last night I heard him say to Michael Savage that Karl Rove is advertising for a Republican to run against him in his congressional district. Now I may be off-base, but somehow I doubt that assertion. It smacks of a touch of a delusion of grandeur to me.

[PRND21]

The irony lies in who hit "abuse".
I knew AP was off limits, not VD.

[KantianBurke]

actually I wouldn't put it past Rove to engage in that sort of activity. See how involved the WH got involved in the CA Gov. election (NOT THE RECALL).

Tancredo bump.
