Check Out Lou Dobbs on CNN Cable right now – he’s really tearing into the Illegal Alien Amnesty of Bush!

If you’re not tuned in, check it out right now, Lou Dobb’s on CNN Cable is really hitting the pertinent points regarding illegal aliens as well as the Bush amnesty. If you missed it, hopefully it will re-air later tonight, on CNN cable. I believe this man truly is a fighter and advocate for the interests of the workers and labor in this country the USA – he is asking very direct questions about the problems of illegal immigration from Mexico, and though he may be a Democrat he presents the news in a superb manner, in this case brings an exciting and significant forum of news events discussion and coverage (Faceoff on CNN, as well as other CNN programs featuring this host). He really got my blood going, he was right on and no fan of illegal immigration.

I don’t want to hear the Mahatma Gandhi insult/quote from Hillary again, not even from the so-called conservative shows/hosts. There is only one issue to cover, and that is the Buffalo that Bush has pulled on all conservatives and Americans. You know, some folks say the Democratic Party is dead. Maybe so. But, maybe not, in that, I would wager, if some Democratic candidate, spokesperson, politician (with a D next to the name) went back to early Democratic Party roots, and focused on the interests of American workers, that is hit on the issues of exporting American jobs to India et all, off shore outsourcing, and yes, what the invasion of illegal aliens from South of the Border is doing to undercut living wage jobs in the USA for labor, I would predict this person would rise like a comet, a meteor, and could very well take the White House. Would the Democratic Party make such a swing away from the left “progressive” wing to become a party that advocates American Workers First? I think it is possible, not immediate, but possible, and probable to come. It’s all a matter of which party gets on this wave first – the Republicans or the Democrats. I predict, that will be the Party that will sweep America. Don’t think so?

I think so. I think that these issues, Made in America, Jobs in USA, American Workers First, illegal aliens, Bush type amnesty, exporting American jobs, offshore outsourcing, are, and will become even more, THE issues of the next four to eight years, and more.

I am outraged by Buffalo Bush.

How dare that man say that I would not do the jobs, any job it takes, to put food on the table of my family. How dare that man say such a thing. That I am a lazy American, and the only Mexicans who come here illegally have the character to do a job, any job, to put food on the table for their family. He can go to Mexico and not come back. My forefathers lived in a wooden box pulled by a horse with a canvas for a roof called a horse drawn wagon, to go somewhere, to put food on the table. My forefathers worked in dirty mines, chucking broken quartz and rock into wagons, to put food on the table. I will do the job, I will get up on someone’s roof and put up shingles, I will paint a wall, I will pick up garbage, to put food on the table for my family. I am an American. And I am proud. And I have the character to do anything it takes. How DARE this President say I won’t do the job it takes if that is what it takes to put food on the table for my family. How DARE he say that. I am an American. I will work. My character, and the character of my forefathers, brought the FREEDOM of this nation, not some illegal alien from Mexico. I will put MY character up against them any day, any place.

Against any one.

Including you, Mr. Bush.

Does your "character" stand up to all illegal immigrants...or just those from Mexico?

In many of these cases the free market result will be that products will be imported from somewhere else rather than being produced here.

You obviously have no idea what percentage of our labor force is now or has at one time been illegal immigrants. It would shut entire industries down overnight. Economically, it is a stupid idea.

Illegal is illegal. The issue is about as ridiculous as the meaning of "is is" from the last Administration.

GWB raised his hand and gave an oath to defend and protect the Constitution of the US. Illegal is illegal. Hispandering is just another way of violating the laws and pandering. Otherwise, none of the laws have any real meaning. They can be twisted but whoever is in power. A chipping away here and there and the next generation won't have to worry about the Constitution because they won't have a nation anyway---chipped away bit by bit.

Then you will pick the lettuce and oranges for us? Get over it, immigration is a joke! W had the courage to address the issue in a realistic fashion. You can pretend that we don't need farm workers, but us people in the West realize that without illegal immigrants, the agriculture industry would be destroyed.

Most of us Conservatives want to make believe we can close the border and we have enough Manual labor to do the jobs none of us want to do. If it is done effectively we can oversee the Mexicans and close the borders too. He has addressed a problem that has been ignored because it is a third rail issue just as most of the Bush haters are proving.

Pray for W and Wisdom

Once they are registered...the 'owners of the means of production' will have to carry them on insurance..pay them workman's comp...unemployment...social security disability...their cheap labor advantage is about to disappear I think...they are about to get very expensive

Exactly!

This is a very good point.

So once they are forced to register and the economic value of these workers disappears, won't supply follows demand apply to the amount of "registered aliens" needed.

P.S. I grew up around the migrant farms of central and south Florida. I don't know one American that would live under the deplorable conditions that the migrants find themselves in (but that's another issue).

Just a reality check -

Offer $15/hour in San Francisco for roofers, no experience necessary. You will get Salvadorans, Mexicans, etc. Thats all.

I hope he loses and the freaked out wacko nutcase dean wins. Then I will be the first one on FR to bust my ass laughing, becausee I more than likely will not see the end of his term. But I will laugh my ass off for the time I have left at the pissing and moaning about the crap he does. Some of the morons on this site deserve it.

Yeah. We're all doomed. Thanks.

How will we ever play golf again knowing the guy who cut the greens for us doesn't have his papers yet? Oh, the horror.

Illegal is illegal.

Problem solved now. Thanks, GWB.

Illegals and their families will now get free medical and educational services

They are already getting free services and the Republicans can't afford to lose 90% of Hispanics to the Democrats like they lost 90% of the blacks.

The GOP WILL INCREASE its share of the Hispanic vote becuase of this initiative, that is indisputable.

I'm sure if he was granting the Swedish Bikini team legal status a lot of naysayers would change their tune..

I think most Freepers have stayed off the site today because of this. I notice it's the same screamers on every thread, saying the same thing, misinterpreting the same things, twisting this proposal into something it's not.

I was hoping for something different...like a rational discussion of the facts...but, *SIGH*--- this doesn't seem possible on FR.

I didn't say I wanted him to win, just to run in a primary. without a primary, there is no forum for these issues to be discussed.

California is overpopulated. It is possible to overpopulate this country unless you want live in the Japanese style

There's a house for sale on my street.

And I saw a moving van the other day. They actually have those kinds of things in my town.

I can give you the guy's name. I'll bet he'd drive to California and bring you back.

And, to make you feel better, he's white.
