There are thousands and thousands of websites and authors on the Internet. There is absolutely no way I can make a list of which are acceptable and which are not. I prefer to operate on the premise that discerning conservatives are responsible and sensible enough to steer clear of racism and anti-America tinfoil hat propaganda. Those who cannot are not welcome here.

It's a shame that some people are so into anti-immigration issues that they willfully fall in with stormfront and other white nationalist type groups. This will only make it that much more difficult in the long run to pass a political solution regarding illegal immigration.

Same can be said for the rampant Bush haters that fall for every tinfoil hat anti-America propaganda piece that comes down the pike. And when you combine the two, wow, what a mess. VDARE, Rense, Woolridge, Sam Francis, Etherzone, infowars, whatreallyhappened, antiwar, NewsWithViews, LibertyPost, LibertyForum, stormfront, libertylobby etc, etc, all prime examples.

The problem with Bush and immigration is that most conservatives are having a serious crisis over this issue. They can't understand why his immigration policies are so out of line with conservative views. As for tinfoil hats, once people look into this issue and see how out of control the situation is and how our laws are not being enforced then people will try to speculate or find a reason why. There is no logical or rational explanation as to why the administration is practically encouraging people to cross our borders illegally by the thousands each day. This situation is not only at odds with the public will but it is at odds with our national security goals. Unless you are armed with a good explanation as to why the administration is passing stricter laws like the Patriot Act while at the same time leaving us wide open with a catch and release program on the Southern border then I would go easy on the 'tin foil' hat label. Of course members of Free Republic will be struggling with this duplicitous policy because most Freepers are populist conservatives. Throwing conservatives out that disagree with Bush or putting labels on people like liberals do will only exacerbate the problem.

The best solution is not to reduce opposition by throwing people out and labeling them nuts or racists. The best solution is for Bush to listen to the people that elected him and adjust his policies and positions accordingly.

My stomach turns just by reading the titles of these sites and/or people.
