"Got any good suggestions for 2008 candidates?"
Posted on 06/08/2006 9:53:34 AM PDT by Liz
The anti-illegal movement is growing in strength and political power in the shadow of the Senate amnesty atrocity, translating into election victories as recent primaries evidenced: Herndon, VA, Nebraska, and Brian Bilbray in California all saw winning campaigns against losing candidates running on support for illegals.
Francine Busby's defeat at the hands of Brian Bilbray (for Duke Cunningham's CA-50 seat) was especially sweet since Sen McCainiac----prime supporter of the Senate amnesty atrocity----cancelled a fund-raiser for Bilbray b/c of the latter's anti-amnesty postion. We'll need Brian Bilbray out there when McCainiac tries for 2008. I hope Bilbray is vengeful -- and cools McCainiac's 2008 ambitions.
Bilbray's opponent Dim Busby predictably assumed the Hyphenate-Fellate position---she stuck her Dumbocrat head so far up the illegals' backsides, she'll need emergency surgery to get it out. Hyphenating Busby, attempting to divide and conqueur, held a "Latins-only" political meeting where she encouraged fraudulent voting, and stupidly told illegal invaders they didn't need "papers" to vote for her.
======================================================
On the 2008 presidential front, in a Michigan straw poll, McCain got his head handed to him by anti-immigration leader Tom Tancredo in a key GOP enclave which sent a strong anti-illegal message by backing Tancredo.
Tancredo won 60 of the 327 Michigan GOP delegates, about 18 percent, in the key Republican county, a suburb of Detroit, beating 13 others, including Sen. John McCain, onetime Mayor Rudolph (The Hyphenator) Giuliani and favorite son Massachusetts hopeful Gov. Mitt Romney, son of former Michigan Gov. George Romney.
Some observers say Tancredo needs to get into the 2008 race bigtime. At this point in the post-Senate amnesty travesty, people know Tancredo as a powerful articulate anti-inmmigration figure, and approve of where he stands because they overwhelmingly agree with him. Observers say Tancredo's presence might even encourage other pro-border candidates as opposed to open border hacks like McCainiac, Hagel, and Frist running as Republicans. Tancredo's entry into 2008 will dramatically refocus the debate----especially for Dims.
First off, we need to get an anti-amnesty plank in the Repub platform. Then we have to get a comprehensive anti-illegal position that covers all bases.
===========================================
2008 REPUBLICAN PARTY PLATFORM DEMAND LIST:
Some of the 2008 issues might include: stopping the tide of illegal invaders, closing our southern borders and curtailing the activities of illegal immigrants who break our laws and suck-up US benefits at an alarming rate, getting free education, health care, court costs, legal representation, etc. while American taxpayers must pay usurious taxes to support illegals, and must additionally pay through the nose to provide these same benefits for their own familes with ever-shrinking salaries.
The 2008 Republican party candidates must address the criminal behavior and inequities posed by invaders on our shores and come up with solutions.

Exactly where pat buchanan was at early in the game, 18%.
FReeper Reaganwuzthebest makes good points and tells us another primary race to keep an eye on is Cannon in Utah. who may still win because of his opponent's lack of name recognition but just the fact this long-term incumbent is forced to fight it out over immigration proves the natives are restless.
Got any good suggestions for 2008 candidates?
Illegal immigration is illegal, which means it's a crime. And everybody knows what is done when someone commits a crime.

Agreed---now let's see your suggestions on how to get it done.
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
Sure.
Eliminate The scalable tax and institute a flat tax.
Fix Social security.
Fix the welfare system to get rid of the freeloaders.
and finally.... Secure our boarders and ENFORCE OUR LAWS!
I could support Pence very easily.
Enforce the laws we already have. Put an end to the anchor baby loophole. Stop chain migration and the visa lottery. Deport visa overstayers. Use asset forfeiture to discourage illegals.
I don't know how reality is going to beat Bush...he's not running.
Your support is warning enough that there is something wrong with the Pence bill.
"The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American. There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else...." - Theodore Roosevelt
LOL! Not to normal people but thanks...coming from you that's very reassuring.
Punishing those who break the law would likely solve the whole problem. Creating new laws, that will not be enforced, is just another smoke screen.
Got it.
