It is that simple.
I want to be right.
I don't think you understand. The Azteca Intifada has just erupted in the Barrio Archepelago.
Pukin', you're 180 degrees off. Immigration is THE issue that the 2008 winner will take---border enforcement. Whoever grabs that issue and runs with it (Tancredo is just too small potatoes---I mean, whichever major figure) wins. It's that simple. So, yes, we can be right and win.
If there is any type of guest worker amnesty whatsoever the gop will lose big in November.
This issue is a win for them if they follow the rule of law and side with the 80% of Americans who want our immigration laws enforced and our borders closed and secured.
Anything other than securing the border and taking steps to rid ourselves of the illegal menace would be political suicide.
If what you say is true, it's not just us freepers that are screwed, the Republican party will reap the whirlwind in the fall no matter what they do. The country is on the wrong track and there's nothing like a little gridlock to slow the train down. Frankly, if Bush didn't do anything wrong he doesn't need to worry about impeachment, now does he?
They'll lose far more support if they betray us.
I like that. That's exactly what it is.
As do I - will keep track how everyone of my congresscritters vote and take that into account next time they are up for re-election (most this Nov). I will reward them according to what I believe is right for this country. We are based on the "RULE OF LAW" and every stinking one of these illegal aliens are ILLEGAL. End of discussion - watch the election this fall and weep.
"My peons are so stupid, they won't figure it out for years."
It's mostly small businesses who hire the illegals. Faced with not surviving in business due to onerous garbage laws, they hire Mexicans who are eager for the work.
If the regulation was erased and American low-wage workers couldn't demand all the goodies, American business could hire American workers and Mexicans wouldn't be so attractive.
Getting rid of Minimum wage laws and such is the answer IMO and that's not going to happen anytime soon.
Where's the barf alert for this piece?
Sorry, there is no reality in your defeatist rant.
False dichotomy whether one agrees with your premises or not.
