"The smart thing to do is what the poster of the article suggests, and that's to send your letters and Faxes to the White House with your suggestions, instead of being a useful idiot for the left, and condemning the President for something that has yet to happen. ... you can be a tool for the left and scream from the roof tops that Bush will grant amnesty, or you can wait for his actual proposal like the rest of us who refuse to be played like a Fiddle"
Correct!
Send a short polite note to
president@whitehouse.gov --- ALL OF YOU WHO WANT TO PROTECT OUR BORDERS --- saying you oppose amnesty, you oppose this proposal, you oppose 'anchor babies' getting citizenship when their Mom's came over here illegally (only children of legal residents should be made citizens); you oppose giving welfare to immigrants; you support Cong Lamar Smith's CLEAR act that allows local law enforcement to enforce immigration laws; you opposed paying medicare money for the border hospitals rather than letting hospitals off the hook so they dont have to cater to illegals showing up at their doors; you support employer sanctions and fines and thinke every employee can and should be verified through a national database. Any 'guest worker' visa should be strictly enforced. The borders should be made more secure and the incentives for illegal immigration should be stopped.
It all can be done we just lack the will to do it.
Lastly tell Bush his pandering will backfire. One focus group wholly and totally angry at the Bush admin for their foolish pandering will send the message to Karl Rove.
EXACTLY, the idea of condemning this administration for something that hasn't been even proposed yet, is just what the left would love to see happen. I own a Body Shop just outside of Washington D.C. and I have at least five customers who are columnist or reporters. A conservative reporter who I have done business with for years tells me that the Washington Post enjoys nothing more than to publish stories that divide the right.
I can guarantee you that many of them lurk here and take great pleasure in seeing one of us condemning the POTUS for something they published using "unnamed sources" along with quotes from advocates who we disagree with.
