Tancredo on Illegal Aliens: They Are 'A Scourge That Threatens The Very Future of Our Nation'
Newsweek ^ | 03/26/2006

Posted on 03/27/2006 6:30:42 AM PST by Boston Blackie

NEW YORK, March 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Republican congressman Tom Tancredo has become the loudest, angriest voice against the estimated 11 million illegal aliens now living in the United States. They are "a scourge that threatens the very future of our nation," he says. He laments "the cult of muliticulturalism," and worries about America's becoming a "Tower of Babel." If Republican presidential candidates don't put the problem atop the agenda in 2008, he says he'll run himself, just to force the front runners to talk about it, reports White House Correspondent Holly Bailey in the current issue of Newsweek.

He is correct on this account, all we need to do is look at how California now is a solidly Democratic state as evidence. Now he should be more tactful, but that doesnt change that he is correct.

Tancredo is the only Republican presidential candidate who I would trust to stand up to the pro-criminal alien lobby [the Democrats, Republican corporate interests, religious bleeding hearts, etc.] These people have overwhelmed our schools, our emergency rooms, our social welfare programs, etc. etc. etc.

Anyone who hires an illegal alien should be fined $1,000 per day for each date he/she employed each alien, "anchor babies" should not be deemed citizens, and everyone of these leeches should be sent back to his/her/their third, fourth or fifth world hell-hole, as the case may be.

Why? Right now on a Boston radio station there is an anarchist from LULAC predicting a protest of 250,000 people at 5pm in downtown Boston. This criminal from El Salvador stated if Bostonians don't want to be caught in a massive protest and traffic jam they should stay out of Boston. A criminal caller stated that America is Mexican territory and they will take iy back.They have declared war on America and Washington is doing nothing about it.

At my age I should not worry about what America is becoming. But because I experienced what it once was, I still do care.

Tancredo is a good man. So is JD Hayworth.

Tactful? Why? As we tippy toe around the issue for another 20+ years, so as to not offend who? Those who are already breaking the law? Those who are putting a drain on the services and system designed to help legal American citizens?

These people made a few mistakes by protesting this weekend. They have exposed their agenda (I shouldn't have to follow the law, but I should have all the American's Constitutional rights), and made themselves known to a lot of people who probably haven't thought much about illegal immigration, or the numbers involved.

Why didn't ICE get a big net and round these people up as they marched? That's what I can't believe. You have all these lawbreakers, and no one did anything.

Tact. Humph!

Thank you Tom Tancredo for speaking the truth.

Many of us freepers would agree we shouldnt blame the illegals we should blame the politicians that are allowing this to happen.

Bush specifically should be blamed for only he has the power, the bully pulpit, to frame this argument and to sway RINOs into protecting the homeland by sealing our borders. But he would rather attack us as vigilantes and take the side of an illegal.

Does anyone really believe that Bush cares about you and I? He could care less about our sovereignty, our laws, and the constitution.

Watch how Bush will frame the argument by never using the term "illegal" when talking about these illegal immigrants. He knows that most people are too stupid to understand the difference and like the dems is trying to incite emotion and pity. The GOP needs to be cleaned of RINOs.

I still don't understand why I have to punch 1 to hear English when I call a bank or credit card company. Why is cereal and cleaning products in English and Spanish?

I learned all I need to know about our government the day they all ran screaming from the capitol because a small plane strayed too close. They were plenty concerned about their own personal security that day but when it comes to securing the nation they couldn't care less.

It appears that our 'leaders', with a few exceptions, are fast becoming surrender monkeys. Another criminal caller on Boston radio is DEMANDING citizanship.

Because those companies are no longer American companies. They are fully on board with the Bush white house plan to merge the United States with every other country in the Western Hemisphere. The large banks and credit card companies have been very generous, donating signifcant money, providing special programs requested by the US government in those other countries in public/private partnerships, and putting significant pressure on our politicians to accomplish this. The absolutely worst offending companies are Bank of America(s), Wells Fargo and CitiBank.

You wouldn't want to violate their civil rights!

That's right! Appeasement won't work with the terrorists, why would it work with the illegal immigrants?
