"Remember the stink all the "grassroots conservatives" in the GOP were raising over Clinton's sneak naturalization of about 1 million aliens in 1996 just so they could vote for him?"

Uh huh - I recall Clinton getting into trouble over immigration reform around here.

The shoe isn't seeming to fit this time around. . .

From 1999:

"Recall Davis Committee | 11-9 IMMIGRATION AMNESTY ALERT ! The Recall Davis Committee has just learned from a very reliable source that Bill Clinton is threatening to shut down the government unless the Congress approves amnesty legislation authored by Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill) which would legalize more than 750,000 illegal aliens. This would be a disaster for California. Every amnesty only encourages more illegal immigration. Every ammesty always ignores the fraud which will balloon the original estimates. We must stop rolling amnesty or our state will be lost for sure! Illegal aliens should be arrested and deported, not given a free ride! We urge ..."

IMMIGRATION AMNESTY ALERT !

Clinton ignores rule of law on immigration (Mulshine good one)

Clinton Charged with Abandoning Immigration Plan in Exchange for Campaign Money

In The Beginning---(Early days of Clinton, Craig and Immigration Policy)

Immigration Invasion

IMMIGRATION, a gloomy view.

Mexico is a third-world toilet of a country run by a cabal of narco-terrorists. And they are hellbent on exporting their vileness here.

"....George Bush saved America from Usama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein, just so he could hand it over to Vicente Fox. I'm supposed to be happy over that?...."

Couldn't have phrased it better myself.

Thank God I'm not the only one here who thinks this. But it seems so many here think that, if you're against Republican sell-offs, you're against conservatism.

Your taste buds are dead or you don't know good food when you have it.

There ain't nuthin like a fresh batch of chicken or pork tamales with a side of fresh quacamole, refried beans with homemade tortillias, and a big bowl of caramel flan to top it off.

You just haven't been to the right Mexican restaurant.

IMHO, Mexican cooking is hard - HARD TO BEAT!

:~)

"....So what are we going to do?...."

Good question. I've thought of writing an editorial for FR and submitting it to either 'CHAT' or 'CAMPAIGN CENTRAL' on this subject.

Let me say this........I'm a "Card Carrying Republican" ie. I put my-money-where-my-mouth-is. This means a yearly $200 donation to the RNC to do with whatever they want and monetary contributions to my Congressman (Virgil Goode) and Senator (Allen) reelection campaigns (I'm a little PO'ed at Warner for not supporting Ollie North).

To answer your question, then..................Currently, I am enclosing an editorial from either Tancredo's or Ron Paul's websites on the continued invasion from Mexico instead of my regular check to the RNC (......It's the membership renewal time-of-year) and to the repeated 'form-letters' asking for contributions to the BUSH/CHENEY Campaign. I have also either written or contacted my representatives a number of times on this matter.

I don't know whether THIS is sufficient, but it's what I'm doing right now. Maybe they'll hear me......maybe not.

PS. I just clicked on your Homepage and see you're in CA. I lived there (LA-LA-Land) for 10 years and moved 10 years ago to Virginia as soon as I could after the Rodney-King Riots.

You are not alone. The majority of American citizens agree with you. Let's face it, Bush has us over a barrel. His interests lie with the one world globalists and greedy businessmen who are determined to destroy America for their own greedy purposes.

Heck, what do we have to lose in voicing our own opinions? America is finished, any way you look at it.

Its only finished if we give up.

When I look at the people running for office, I see only democrats and demo/communists. In my district the only challenger that US Rep Sam Farr has is another democrat. The ballot lists are filling up with green party and peace and freedom.

Why don't conservatives run? Why don't conservatives get involved other than writing letters? Its like we have totally opted out of the system, and now are complaining that we don't like where things are headed. We've got some good guys in Congress, why don't we give them support by running for some local offices, including Republican Central committee, and volunteering to serve on some of the appointed committees in your local government? The globalists do it, why don't we? Its the only way to fight back now.

You want to have some influence after the election? Find a candidate that supports conservative values, and help them to get elected. If they get elected, you will be able to get audience with the person, if you helped to elect them.

Bad Mexican food sucks. Good, authentic Mexican food is wonderful. But the fact that Mexicans have good food is not a reason for importing tens of millions of them to live, work, and vote here.

If President Bush is really, really serious about Immigration Reform . .

What will it take

FOR

"Mexican governors meet at border to discuss U.S. immigration proposals."

TO CHANGE TO THIS

"UNITED STATES Governors meet at border to discuss Mexican Immigration Invasion."

What is ironic is Bush devotes time in his SOTU to address $ for drug testing highschool students (which I do not support the schools doing)and athletes with drug problems. So obviously he is concerned about illegal drugs. But illegal immigrants from S and Central America sounds great to him. huh?
