McCain's an idiot and I have a real issue with Sarah Palin supporting him and in turn his positions.
If I get a chance in Nashville to express my opinion I plan on it. Illegal immigration and amnesty is a cornerstone position of the Tea Party people and to me it is not one of the areas I am willing to sluff off and give anyone a pass on.
“I can’t imagine half the Dems supporting this going into the mid-terms.”
Most democrats feel the same as conservatives about illegal immigration...they don’t like it. But the dems can keep their base in line by dividing us by screaming ‘racist’!
They also know 3rd worlder imports will vote socialist every time.
Actually, progressive democrats have a group opposed to amnesty.
