Jeb has left the United States and joined the Global Nation

most politicians left the Citizens long ago...the Citizens just were not witnessing what was about to happen...now the Citizens are witnessing what is happening. It is up to the Citizens....do the Citizens want their nation or not? If the Citizens do want their nation, then the Citizens will have to take it away from the old media, the muslims, the illegals, the legislatures, our congress, the presidential candidate, the sitting president.....and on and on and on...This land belongs to the Citizens but the aforementioned are working overtime to take our nation away...whether or the Citizens allow this to happen is up to the Citizens....but here stands one Citizen (pitchfork in hand) ready to take them on.....How about you, fellow Citizen?

Jeb’s wife is a Mexican.

But in a state with the third-largest immigrant population in the country - an estimated 3.5 million - these bills already face resistance from business- and immigrant-advocacy groups.

Anyone who conflates "illegal alien" and "immigrant" cannot be trusted on this subject. You know they are a liar, before you read anything else they write.

This state is already overrun with illegals from cuba, mexico, central and south America and some of the islands. Fidel’s nephews, the Diaz-Balart brothers, Ros-leighton and of course our senator mel martinez were solidly behind mcpain and his comprehensive illegal immigration package. We need to oust them and the log cabin governor and recycle the Supreme Court. Vote them all out.

[Sunnyflorida]

You are correct. And a lot of these people are Republicans.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Exit polls in the state's Jan. 29 presidential primary showed that nearly 60 percent of voters would allow illegal immigrants to stay as temporary workers or gain a path to citizenship.

My guess is that most of those polled were democrats. One should also know that the Ledger is a NYT newspaper.

Yes she is, but not one that we could identify with. I tried to talk with her once at a campaign stop. I was holding a Jeb sign. She looked at me as if I was a street urchin with the unmitigated gall to dare look at her. I suspect I was supposed to never make eye contact like the peons in an old Zorro movie. They are truly the Globalist enemy and they overrunning the country without firing a shot.

...now the Citizens are witnessing what is happening. It is up to the Citizens....do the Citizens want their nation or not?

Yes most do, but they are asleep at the wheel and totally oblivious to the cloud of evil that has drifted over the world.

If the Citizens do want their nation, then the Citizens will have to take it away from the old media, the muslims, the illegals, the legislatures, our congress, the presidential candidate, the sitting president.....and on and on and on...

Obviously you are correct, but I fear it is a long shot - kind of like Robert E. Lee struggling to evade the Yankee swarms in the closing days of the Civil War.

This land belongs to the Citizens but the aforementioned are working overtime to take our nation away...whether or the Citizens allow this to happen is up to the Citizens....but here stands one Citizen (pitchfork in hand) ready to take them on.....How about you, fellow Citizen?

The figurative pitchfork is symbolic, but just about all that remains of a once proud people, who like the Cherokee Indians are being overwhelmed by a well organized foreign invasion.

Here is the main issue. Elected officials are supposed to listen to the people, that is why they were elected. Unelected officials are put in place by those elected officials, they are supposed to listen to the people.

That is the essence of "representative government". If they don't, they have no basis to lay claim to it being one.

Miami Beach’s tourist business depends a lot on prostitution. Why don’t we give the hookers amnesty.

I’m sure we will once pimps form a high $ P.A.C. Or not since they enjoy the government service of enforcing a black market monopoly just like the Columbian and Mexican drug companies, a.k.a. cocaine/heroin cartels.

[TheKidster]

We aren’t asleep, we’re working our asses off from Jan. through March to earn the money the government steals from us before we see a paycheck, then we’re spending the rest of the year trying to keep our kids from becoming promiscuously bisexual, PETA supporting, marxist, goverment dependants more concerned with the welfare of polar bears than thier class mates.

We have less than a year to purchase as many guns and ammo as possible before Obama outlaws private gun ownership. Get yours while the gettin is good because with the falling property tax revenues and the “huge” loss local governments will see because of amendment 1 passing the local fire cheif and cheif of police won’t be able to send responders when you’re house is burning or being invaded. They won’t be able to afford it because they are both breaking the bank by double dipping and collecting $5K a month in retirement benefits on top of a 6 figure salary and they have gotten used to a certain standard of living THEREFORE services must be cut unless taxes are raised, I mean more fees are assessed.

Thank you for shooting holes in my argument and pitchfork. I would laugh but your argument wins...(frown) Thank you for the rebuttal, while I do hope and pray all is not lost.
