[My Favorite Headache]

Press conference starts at 2:45 EST....get the prilosec out...we are going to need it.

[You Dirty Rats]

Comparing desperate people from Mexico to rapists is offensive and unnecessary.

It is also offensive to compare Dubya's proposal to legalizing rape.

You should be more careful about calling people dumb.

[Flyer]

I think I gave an accurate recap in #419.

[StoneColdGOP]

yeah they'll be put on DOUBLE secret probation!

LOL!

[BushisTheMan]

Ok

[Scenic Sounds]

So you're talking about prosecuting 3-4 million employers. Good luck.

No, I don't think you really need to prosecute 3-4 million employers.

Employers aren't stupid and they aren't incapable of change. I think that all you need to do is to increase the cost of (penalty for) hiring illegal immigrants to a level that rational employers will decide that it is in their best interests to quit hiring illegal aliens.

We're talking about rational businessmen here, not addicts. They care about costs - that's why they're violating the laws now.

Guess who does NOT get my vote in November?

I'll guess who does get your vote, that person would be Howard Dean.

[bvw]

There ya go.

[Rebelbase]

Am I on drugs or did this thread have a different title earlier, something about being "sold out"?

[Dan from Michigan]

I have three major problems.

1. Jobs. We're losing jobs, and there are only so many to go around.
2. Depresses wages, taking jobs away from Americans and legal immigrants.

3. National Security. Immigration doesn't just come from Mexico and Central America. In Eastern Michigan, most immigrants come from Arab Countries. If they are legal, that's not a problem, but it's real easy for illegals to swim across the Detroit or St Clair River through Canada, let alone driving through the 4 border crossing here with Canada.

[philetus]

By this time next yeat ther'll be 8 million more.

[Sloth]

Either something is a crime, or it's not. Is that too complex for you?

[Flyer]

419

[BushisTheMan]

Thanks for defending me. They jump from a to z without logic sometimes.

[mystery-ak]

Something else is about to happen. either late this fall or after he's re-elected.....

[yatros from flatwater]

The translation is mine.

[Itzlzha]

Are you upset because of what the media has been claiming that Bush will say, or have you heard some specific comment in President Bush's speech today that has upset you?

The difference is not subtle. In one case, you've simply been manipulated. In the other, you would be justified.

So, now that we KNOW that we have been SOLD OUT...what is your opinion now?

[StoneColdGOP]

It is also offensive to compare Dubya's proposal to legalizing rape.

You're absolutely right. It's really our amigo Presidente Vicente Fox who's got America with its pants down around its ankles. Bush is just the enabler.

[Righter-than-Rush]

We have known this for a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng time now. Depression. Are you ready?

[Dane]

"I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!"(from your tag line)

JMO, you already have.

[KantianBurke]

"You'd better listen to the INS agent in the above photo StoneCold. He's serious - wink wink nudge nudge - this time.
