You are remarkably bigotted AND stupid.

Bigotry has been the order of the day, around this place, today.

LOL! You aren't trying to say that Savage is "over the top" are you????

You are remarkably bigotted AND stupid.

This is FR, after all.

Do you think he is going to make the same mistake twice. CFR was a doomed issue for Bush. McCain was all over him and would have probably tried to run in the primaries against Bush. He had no choice but to do this... In this case, this is a smart tactic to take as it takes away the attention from the caucuses and puts all the attention on Bush...

[Khurkris]

"Occasionally it is, but not normally. FR is a great idea, technology-wise, but it is overrun with radical reactionaries, misanthropes, racists, and others that have just been generally outcast (rightfully so in many cases) by mainstream America. It's kind of sad actually."

Don't be so hard on yourself. Your insults havn't got you zotted yet...today.

As far as your slight attempt to call me a racist, name me any Hispanic or African dominated country that respects individual liberty and private property.

Nobody needs to call you a racist when you make statements like this!

When you and the other idiots finish drastically changing the demographics of this country, where will yor children go?

My boys are cops. They're being RECRUITED by three or four police departments.

Oh, and if you decide to move out of overpopulated California to underpopulated Texas, I promise I'll tell my boys to cut you some slack here in the 'hood.

My sister and her family are here visiting from Honduras. They've lived there for many years. I think you'd find several Central American countries that respect liberty and property.

Is it a perfect place, no, there are thieves and you have to be careful of your property, but guess what, we have people in this country that don't respect private property either.

No... he's a great guy. Great name for the cause of American conservatism. I mean, I think GWB said something about how he too wished all gays would get AIDS and die miserable deaths too, right? Or was that just Michael Savage? What a great guy. Glad some "conservatives" think that guy is acceptable.

Just had a short 'dicussion' with hubby about the upcoming election and I was shocked! He's the most conservative man I've ever known but he hated Reagan. He's had a union job all his life and can't see how voting Republican could ever help him.

My comment was 'Fine...don't vote Republican because they're for the 'big bosses'...we'll be poor. Go ahead and vote for the Democrat (if you can find one you believe in)...they'll support your unions, raise your taxes, and we'll still be poor. Then he said 'maybe I should vote a third party'....I said sure vote for Perot one more time.....

Why is it that Texas conservatives like us are pro-business, capitalist, and immigrant-friendly whereas California "conservatives" on FR are totalitarian, restrictionist, isolationist, and anti-immigrant to the core? God Bless Texas, imho.

[Texas_Dawg]

He's the most conservative man I've ever known but he hated Reagan. He's had a union job all his life and can't see how voting Republican could ever help him.

Ummmm... this makes absolutely zero sense.

[moondoggie]

Interesting how the compassionate Dems are cannibalizing Bush over this when it's been a Democrat proposal in Congress for the past three years.

Ya suppose this was anticipated by our President when he made his announcement today?

Think about how awful the Dems are looking right now to all those recent arrivals who are eligible to vote now for the first time and are now learning that the Dems don't give a flying leap about them:-0

I don't think Bush ever expected this legislation to pass.

I do think he wanted to cause turmoil in the Democrat party and to that end....he's succeeded.

[Texas_Dawg]

CFR was a political pander. This may be too, but the difference here is that this one is absolutely the right thing to do.

[Don'tMessWithTexas]

I am getting such a kick out of hearing all these folks with their drawers in a knot about illegal immigration. Coming from the Lone Star State, hispanic culture was just a part of the way of life in my town. The Penas and Ortegons were die hard Cowboys and Astros fans. My friends and I would trek out to the all-night Mexican cafes, gritar with the Tejano bands, make a run for the Border and visit Boy's Town on the weekends.

Do the borders need to be controlled. Sure. Handling immigration is a related by different issue entirely. To seek the destruction of W over this is simply absurd. The thought of allowing that crazy dude from Vermont near the White House is mind boggling.

[cksharks]

I am not a professor but you call me bigot, and you are the one who wants to deport 10 to 18 million people "with no one to replace them in the work force" that is downright STUPID. That I can spell. And before you get your panties in a twitter I am Cajun and we know a little about getting kicked out of a country.

In California, at any rate -

a) There is insufficient non-Mexican population where picking jobs are, even if you count high school summer hires. If you want to get native US workers, the premium would be astronomical.

b) Ag products have to compete with imports - Grapes, tomatos, even Gilroy is losing business to Chinese garlic.

So between the hammer of a) and the anvil of b) the only ways out are c) - Hire Mexicans or d) Large agricultural subsidies or tarriffs, or e) Give up on agriculture.

So do you prefer c) or d) or e) ?
