Los Angeles Radio Station KFI's John and Ken Target Repub. Congressmembers on Illegal Alien Issue
KFI AM640, Los Angeles, John and Ken Show

I've been listening to KFI radio this afternoon. KFI radio talk jocks John and Ken are frustrated at the Republican cave-in on the illegal alien sweeps (Asa Hutchinson of the Department of Homeland Security bowed to pressure and called off the sweeps that were rounding up illegals in Southern California). Getting no useful responses regarding support for the sweeps from the Republican members of Congress who represent Southern California districts, J&K have decided that the best way to focus their minds is to target one of them for electoral extinction. They're holding an on-air discussion with their listeners as to who it should be. Two names that are being bandied about are Chris Cox and David Drier. When the selection is made, they plan to hammer their target daily, while promoting his/her opponent, up until the election. They've reminded their listeners of the campaign they waged against a pedophile judge who was up for voter confirmation. By the time their campaign started, it was too late to simply have voters vote against confirmaition, so they pushed a write-in campaign for an opponent. They attacked the judge every day for months and ended up getting an amazing 250,000 write-in signatures for the opponent, ending the judge's career on the bench. The power of their program might be enough to do the same for their congressional target.

They've just said that they're going to put up a list of potential targets on their website so that people can designate their choice more directly.
The Democrat opponents are now calling in to the show to get some free air time.
To: John Jorsett
They have proven themselves to be extremely effective at getting what they want. If I were these politians, I would be very concerned.

So it doesn't matter that the opponents of Cox and Drier are most likely worse?
Sorry John and Ken. If you are leading, then I'm not following.

They bring the issues that are important to the real American population to the politicians attention. Got a problem with that?
To: John Jorsett
This issue of illegal immigration is a frightening thing. Right along with to many legal ones for us to absorb as well. Even when you put aside the fact that it is destroying our culture and all that allows us to be united as a country...
You have the terrorism issue. Imagine a massive attack that comes from within. Who do you threaten about such an attack occurring? How do you prove where it came from and how do attack another country when you can't prove that they were behind it. I mean if we get attacked...was it because a government supported that particular attack or was it just a rouge group like AQ that pulled it off on there own? So you have no one to threaten ahead of time. You can't say that if NY gets nuked then Mecca is next because you just don't know that you can blame the whole country. And what if Russia or China or N Korea were somehow involved? That is the price we will pay for globalism and the modern day dream many of our leaders have for there modern day tower of babble. And yet even in the all most certainty of such a devastating attack the borders remain open. Globalism is one modern evil that they will not let go of at any cost.

We might as well open the borders. The Democrats will put the newly legal aliens on the voter lists as soon as they cross the former border, and the gutless Republicans will simply change the subject.
To: John Jorsett
If they are talking about closing the borders to any further illegal immigration, I agree...let's do that. Increase the border patrol from 10,000 to 200,000 if need be.
To realistically think that it would be possible politically or practically to deport 10 to 15 million illegals currently in the country is foolish. It ain't gonna happen.

"Drier's the worst."
Drier has turned into a genuine RINO, i'd love to see him replaced.
There is no reason for that district to be represented by a RINO, it's basicly conservative.

San Diego Union-Tribune - AP | 25 June 2004 | Ben Fox: Nearly all those arrested were from Mexico, with a few from Central America. Rep. Joe Baca, a Democrat whose district includes Ontario, was among the federal officials to question the arrests and attended the meeting in Washington. "I would like to thank undersecretary Hutchinson for his quick response," Baca said in a statement. "I am glad that we could work together to resolve this crisis, and I hope in the future with better communication we can avoid this crisis again."
Somebody needs to question John and Ken.
To: dalereed
They are starting their campaign against them too late, it should have been done before the primary.
There isn't any reason Drier can't be dumped 2 years from now though!!!

The little bit I heard them today they had written off the democrats as lost causes and said the people turn to republicans for issues like illegals.It's very reasonable to hold their feet to the fire if they want to act like democrats on immigration issues. Don't you agree?
To: novacation
They bring the issues that are important to the real American population to the politicians attention. Got a problem with that?Your remark doesn't logically follow anything that I said.

He also has to put up with them every time he comes home being that close to the border.
Without Hunter, there wouldn't be a fence on the border.

So if they succeed they will replace soft on border enforcement Republican with squishy soft Demonrats.
