"Is this really what Republicanism has come down to? Basing policy on "demographic phalanxes"?"

The language is that of a Democrat operative and a smart one; think what gives rise to the language are larger realities but not those that exclusively drive George Bush.

Explain the Triune God? If you can, then you're superior to all the worlds theologians. If thats the case maybe you are God, heh?

Facts are facts. I won't you let you redefine Christianity - the bible is the authority for Christians. The bible says Jesus Christ is God and that there is One God expressed in 3 persons (a compound unity). If you don't believe it, you are no Christian. My authority for saying that is the bible, the apostles, and 2000 years of Christian history.

Muslims say Jesus is NOT God and that God is not triune which directly contradicts the Christian view.

Simply put, muslims and Christians disagree on the very nature of God, on who He is. Both cannot be true logically. You lose the argument.

So what if the Muslims dont accept Christ literally as God, some Christians dont. Also Jews are supposed to believe in the same God as the Christians and they dont accept Jesus...so are you saying that when they address their father they are talking to the wind and nothing else.

Muslims do not believe in the "Father". The authority is the Koran for them - and their God is not the same God as the God in the bible. They contradict completely. Both can't be true - logic doesn't allow it. And they are speaking to a false God as much as the Philistines were speaking to a false God when they prayed to Dagon. So, yes, they might as well be speaking to a doorknob if they are praying to a non-existent God.

Your point about Ozzie is a quibble. Even if Bush didnt' invite him, he recognized him in the audience, which is just as bad. What about the litany of other gripes against Bush. Got any defense?

If the future of the GOP lays with the hispanic vote - maybe they should just move to Mexico.

So now it's all the same?

You admit that Bush didn't invite Ozzie but it doesn't matter that you and the website you cited said he did?

Lying is not a Christian value.

However, I have lived and traveled throughout the southwestern US and my eyes and ears support the claim.

Please. Give me a break.

President Bush - stand up and tell us the truth

~ Take the FReeper Immigration Reform Poll ~

A FReeper's Guide To Immigration Reform

"What remains to be seen is if this country has the capacity to accommodate, and assimilate, an unending wave of mass immigration ¯ because failure to do so will result in a balkanized, fragmented, strife-torn and dysfunctional America."

I am afraid that negativity is too ingrained for many to even open their minds to change. Conservatives have never been known to accentuate the positive.

8 years under the Clintons have burned away most of the positivity Conservatives have in this country.

Conservatives have learned during 8 years of the Clintons that to trust anything in government is to put your life in the hands of psychos and sadists.

I am afraid that the negativity started way before the Clintons. It is the negativity of the far right that allows them to be such easy targets for the extreme left. It is this negativity that the left uses to alienate the right from the disadvantage masses and the negativity that the left turns around and uses to divide the right against itself.

For the first time the left has been placed in the position of obstructionist, negative ranting and all the extreme right seems to do is help them along, making one side as bad as the other.

What we have to do is assimilate them, and unless we make English the national language and enforce it, this is very hard to do.

"ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: KEY TO THE DEATH OF THE U.S."

Agree. . .so better to put some legal parameters around it; more control for us; less sympathy for the uninvited illegals.

"Conservatives have never been known to accentuate the positive."

Well, I guess 'change' is not the highest ranked word in the Conservative vocabulary; and perhaps that is why this is met with such resistance.

But the realities are 'what they are' and for sure it is a reality that we cannot turn the clock back on millions of illegals currently employed here; nor the economic benefits of said employment.

Will say,however; that I think if they are found guilty of a crime. . .or participating in a gang or somesuch. . ."OUT/HOME THEY GO"; and with no legal interruptions whatsoever.

No, that is where you are wrong, it is spinelessness on the right that is the problem.

But if we show strenght by shuting the (pro-socialist) press in this country, we can start fixing it.

But the problem is that it would take a armed revolution or a military couq to do that.
