No, I'm not ashamed of where I live. I removed the ID when state news started showing up on the screen.

Vicente Fox also gets Bush's message - capitulation.

I really wonder wether those who are so cynical about Bush even voted for him the last time around. That looks like the Buchanan or McCain crowd to me supplanted with a few Dims...

I read right here that Fox wants more.

You need to calm down. This immigration plan is not going to get out of the House, but Bush will be able to use it in New Mexico and Arizona.

It's called strategery.

I'll bet you think Bush is dumb, too.

Shows how much you know.

They probably exhausted their vitriol against Bush in the other threads. Believe me, I went through that.

I have a brother-in-law who is a painter in Wyoming, and a Cousin who is a Dry-Wall Contractor in Salt Lake City. Trade work is hard honest work. I work the more modern trade of programming computers myself, it is much easier on the back, but a lot longer hours.

I am surprised we don't have more immigration from Fredericksburg, VA here in Texas. Lot of folks from Missouri moving in...

We tried to send 11 Texans to Oklahoma, but they came back... ;)

Well, I will grant I live in a growth area.

But you know if all the McDonalds workers in the U.S. decided to get together and form a company that picked up brush piles for $8 an hour they would double their wage, and chase those immigrants right back across the border with competition.

For some reason I don't see it happening.

AS one of the callers pointed out today in Rush's show, imagine when we are "Hunting" down the illegals and one or two of them get killed. God forbid there are children involved. Can anyone say, Rodney King type riots, paralysis of entire cities and all the rest. People seem to live in glass houses and throw out stones not realizing that some might come back and hit them.

You can pay an American worker "under the table"...it happens every day for one-off jobs, everytime cash gets paid and the recipient doesn't declare it on their taxes.

In two years I'll give you a call when my brush pile has built back up.

Which is a lie - when are you going to Confession, Bushbot?

I don't see it happening either, given that you've shown that illegal labor for picking up brush is worth $15/hour, so why would anyone legal do it for half the price?

Part of using illegal labor is the risk you take by using it, and that is why it is cheaper. There is no risk when using a legal brush contracting firm which is licensed/bonded/insured (what would have happened had that illegal worker hurt himself on your property? Did you think about that?), therefore that brush contracting firm should charge MORE than $15/hour for their services.

And you think that is a viable strategy for american workers? It maybe a justifiable strategy considering the complete disregard for the rule of law in this country.

I don't condone cheating on taxes, but American workers paid under the table don't send the money out of the country.

Bush seems to be doing pretty well with the doubled donations from individuals. He's up to $130 million NOW.

No Democrat will get $70 million.

BTW, I notice you dropped the language issue. Bush speaks clearly enough to get the attention of the punks of the world.

I imagine your ears'll perk up any day now.

I agree that it may be a justifiable strategy given the disregard for the rule of law in this country. If the illegals don't want to play by the rules and the government doesn't want to enforce the rules, well...

You always struck me as a Patsy: pissed off all the time, contemptuous of other Republicans as not pure enough, and a gloom n'doomer on the economy.

Sorry if I got your candidate wrong.

I made a mistake. A mistake is not a sin. When I direct something your way that requires me to go to Confession, believe me, you'll know it.
