Abe Lincoln thought that. The Websterites and Quincy Adamses sold him that idea.
Bull Run disabused him.
We have 2 options. Only 2.
Stop whining, sign off free republic, and live in servitude.
Or, organize, fulfill our Constitutional duty and storm Washington, run them ALL out, and start over.
That’s it.
I'm with you, but I have concluded that short of a complete Tea Party takeover of the government (at least I can dream) the border is NEVER going to be secured. Not tomorrow, next year, or ever. If either party was serious about it they would do it immediately, because to do so would remove a major source of anxiety regarding the rest of their amnesty plans. They would almost certainly face significantly less opposition to amnesty if they just secured the border first. Yet they refuse...why?
I think the reasons are obvious. For Democrats, they never want to secure the border because despite all of their rationalizations for amnesty, what they really are trying to do is to import an ignorant dependent class that can outnumber (and outvote) Americans. They've simply decided that they would rather govern Mexicans or Guatemalans, or whatever, rather than Americans and are now trying to create just such a scenario
Establishment Republicans will never support securing the border in any meaningful way because once they grant amnesty to the illegals already here, the cost of employing those now legal workers will increase. Therefore, in order to maintain the pipeline of slave labor for their corporate donors, they will need to continuously import new crops of illegals who are willing to work for next to nothing just to be able to stay here. I would therefore expect endless cycles of amnesty, followed by more illegals, followed by subsequent amnesties, with next to zero effective border enforcement throughout. Republicans have decided that they would rather employ Mexicans, or Guatemalans, or whatever, rather than Americans, and are pursuing that scenario.
We truly do have domestic enemies in our midst these days, and they exist in both parties.
Pete Sessions is nuts.
Ya know, when they openly speak about wanting illegal aliens to come/stay here and take American’s jobs away from them they are committing open treason against us. We hired them, they betray us, they should get booted. If I hire someone to work at my business and find out they’re steering people towards my competitor while accepting wages from me I’d consider that sabotage and they’d be FIRED.

Yup - pass amnesty and I’m out.
I agree, but before we commit to that course, why not starve the beast. If enough people could be organized to storm Washington, why couldn’t enough patriotic businesses and private citizens simply withhold their hard earned tax dollars until someone really produces results. I hear the jails are full, no room for us. If anyone is worried about the government seizing their property, here’s a clue; they’re doing it anyway. Who would they choose to mollify, the producers or the takers?
The above is mostly sarcasm and wishful thinking. I believe America as the patriots on here have known her is just about at the point of no return. Ever read about the Tower of Babel? No nation with so many opposing factions thrown together can prosper. Our noble notions of a melting pot have turned pretty sour for the same reasons most great nations and kingdoms rise and fall but humanity never learns. However, God can do all things. We should pray and call our Congressmen...in that order.
So you think giving them a piece of paper and then give them rules to adhere to will work????
How about the babies they spew out like wet watermellon seeds? Will they get any bennies? You Bet!
These freeloading invaders from the south of the border do not obey any rules at all. Worse yet, by not obeying laws they now receive the gift of actual money, food, medical care and housing from real Americans just for being a foreign “undocumented” criminal.
Wise up: It’s like trying to wash a swarm of ants off your body by using honey.
At this point Sessions may need to withhold budgetary money to fight his own party on amnesty too.
No disagreement from me on that. Now that we’ve become a nation more concerned about pandering for votes versus the rule of law, we have more troubled times ahead.
Right now, the only difference between the GOPe and the Dems is that the GOPe at least tries to buy you dinner before they try to stick it to you. Not working for me though. I get incensed thinking about it.
Landslide GOP victory last Nov.
What did it change? :(
A Cruz-backed candidate ran against Pete Sessions on March 4, 2014, and she was crushed in the Cornball landslide.
Yes, the base will never figure out squat, and that makes Jebbie the frontrunner for nomination but not election.
