VANITY: The best way to keep America a sovereign free nation is to keep the Democrats out of power!

Free Republic

[Jim Robinson]

Will Bush solve the illegal immigration problem? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the government spending problem? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the campaign finance problem? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the drug war problem? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the nation's education problems? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the so-called healthcare problems? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the so-called environmental problems? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the social security problems? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush solve the medicare problems? Probably not. But neither will Kerry, Edwards, Dean, Clark or Hillary. Chances are, they'd make it worse. Probably far worse.

Will Bush defend America from those bent on destroying her? You'd better bet your sweet bippy he will.

Will any of the Democrats defend America? Hell no they won't. They'd rather turn us over to the U.N. They'd surrender to the French Foreign Legion if given the chance.

Will Bush appoint conservative judges? Yup!

Will Kerry, Edwards, Clark, Hillary, et al, appoint conservative judges? Yeah, right. And hell will freeze over tomorrow.

Will Bush continue reducing taxes? Yup.

Will Kerry, Edwards, Clark, Hillary, et al, raise your taxes as soon as they possibly can if given the opportunity and continue raising them until hell freezes over? Yup.

Will Bush defend the right to life? Check

Will Bush defend marriage between a man a woman? Check

Will Bush defend the right to keep and bear arms? Check

Will Bush say no to Kyoto? Check.

Will Bush say no to a world court? Check.

Will Bush say no to the U.N.? Check.

Will Kerry, Edwards, Clark, Hillary, et al, remove our national sovereignty and subjugate America to world government? Just as quickly as they possibly can if given the opportunity.

Will any other person be elected to the Presidency in 2004 other than Bush (God willing) or a Democrat? Obviously not.

Doesn't make a lick of sense to me to allow the America hating, freedom hating Democrats back into power now that we've kicked them out.

Say yes to sovereignty for America and continued freedom for all Americans.

Say no to the RATS!!

[George W. Bush]

Why don't YOU run??????

I have. Been elected twice. Personally, I'm always surprised at how few at FR ever have.

[Tempest]

Thanks hon, I appreciate it =^D

[deport]

I was speaking of the 93 US Attorneys and not all the others.... I do know they are appointed for four year terms and serve at the pleasure of the President... See 28 USC CH. 35 Sec. 541.... I think that is where it's at.......

[Indy Pendance]

What have you done to try to fix the problems with the conservatives? You all want to blame GWB, but you don't want to try to make it better. Let someone else do it. Well la dee da, isn't that the liberal way to get things done. Bitch and moan, gripe and complain, but I won't vote for that SOB ever again, because he won't do my pet project. Well, sorry folks. The president is the top guy, it's like trying to getting the CEO to fix a machine problem in a factory. He's looking at the big picture. You all have to go after the 'managers' to correct the trouble. Problem is, you're all like unions. Blame the big guy. Just look at all your whinney gripes. And you all call yourselves conservatives. Ha, you're all looking for someone else to correct the problems. "Why don't THEY fix it?", Instead of I will get people together to correct the problem, you all want someone to fix it. Some conservatives you all are, and you know who you are, you're the gripers and complainers, those who expect everyone else to get the job done to your satisfaction. Well, you are all no better than liberals. Look in the mirror, because you all fit the shoe.

---...do you think that after three years, these people are going to honor the time limit set?---

It's a moot point. After three [or six] years, at least one and probably several babies will be birthed. Ameircan citizen babies. There won't be any leaving then.

The NAFTA/no borders politicians know this full well. Don't support them.

By the way, speaking of judicial activism, here's a relevant article just posted:


What To Do About the Quiet Judicial Revolution


For the past 50 years our Federal judiciary has engaged in a quiet revolution.

Rejecting a century and a half of American jurisprudence, the courts have progressively worked to establish a new form of government where they are completely independent – free from checks and balances and unaccountable to the people. With growing boldness, judges are chipping away at our constitutional republic constructed on a three-tiered system of government that is ultimately accountable to its citizens.

Along the way, the courts opined that children may not pray in public schools. The courts decided that states may not protect their preborn citizens. The courts judged that the display of the Ten Commandments on the courthouse lawn and the mention of God in the Pledge of Allegiance violates a letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote to a group of Baptists in Danbury, Connecticut and thereby must be prohibited. By increasing their sphere of influence and assuming duties limited to the legislative branch, the courts have effectively established an oligarchy, a form of government where a handful of people wield the power.

That’s not just my view. Thomas Jefferson, in 1820, said that judges "have the same passions for party, for power, for privilege of their corps," as anyone else and he added that their power is made "more dangerous as they are in office for life and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control." He further stated "To consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions [is] a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy." He rightly observed that, "The Constitution erected no such tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with the corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots."

---Three words: Rove, Frist, Lott.---

Yep. Plenty of faux Republicans all over.

[He Rides A White Horse]

Yes, your post certainly conveys the intricacies of politics........one thing is going on over here, but lo and behold............look this way, something is developing.

One is that it will stall the issue until next term when we may have a stronger congressional majority.

....and that would be a prime example.

And the debate begins. Tancredo has already put up a counter proposal. And the Democrats have rolled out theirs. The Tancredo proposal looks like a compromise with Bush's.

Tancredo has a great deal of credibility amongst those displeased with the illegal immigration problem. It would be advisable for the President to continue to work closely with this man.

I don't know about you, but I think I'd trust Bush, Tancredo and the Republicans in Congress to do a better job for us on this issue than the Democrats at this point.

I don't know about you, but I think I'd trust Bush, Tancredo and the Republicans in Congress to do a better job for us on this issue than the Democrats at this point.

For me, it's not a matter of trusting the President. I think he is a good man, better than most. There is a distinction between being 'good' and 'mistaken'. 'Mistaken' does not imply evil intent........a man can be good, but mistaken, and that's where my concerns come from.

However, for the record, let me state that I don't trust Democrats for one moment. I know what their motives are......and it doesn't fall under the 'mistaken' category.

And by the way, this issue may even bring California to the Pubbie side. The people of California will reject the Democrats illegal immigrant amnesty and immediate citizenship with voting rights plan.

The only way this plan is going to fly is if he demonstrates in the most uncompromising terms that he is dead serious about enforcing all provisions of it.

To be honest with you, Republicans are showing a poor track record in regards to being firm about things.

If I were the President's advisor, I might consider a televised speech devoted to the subject. Contrary to what some might say, I think he is good at this. Maybe not as eloquent as Reagan, although the 9-11 speech ranks up there as one of the greatest Presidential addresses of all time in my opinion.

In short, he is not doing nearly enough to assauge the fears of his hardcore base. He needs to.

---And by the way, this [immigration] issue may even bring California to the Pubbie side.---

That would be sweet.

I'm not sure Ahnold will be resolute on the issue though.

[Jim Robinson]

"In short, he is not doing nearly enough to assauge the fears of his hardcore base. He needs to."

I agree. He really needs to. But whether he does or not, and for all of the reasons I've stated on this thread and elsewhere, there is no way in hell I'll be part of tossing Bush over the side when it will only result in allowing the Democrats to regain their hold on power. Judges are forever.

[He Rides A White Horse]

I do thank you for your kind words, but I'm not a politician at heart.

Good for you! Keep it up!

Uuuuuf...ing rahhhh Baeebeeeeee! Urahhhhh Yeah.!!!!
Anytime someone quotes brother Churchill, especially

THE Sir Winston Churchill
"We Shall Fight them on the beaches" speech. Well just tell me where to aim and fire.
This is my favorite one:

Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never--in nothing, great or small, large or petty--never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

We stood all alone a year ago, and to many countries it seemed that our account was closed, we were finished. All this tradition of ours, our songs, our School history, this part of the history of this country, were gone and finished and liquidated.

Very different is the mood today. Britain, other nations thought, had drawn a sponge across her slate. But instead our country stood in the gap. There was no flinching and no thought of giving in; and by what seemed almost a miracle to those outside these Islands, though we ourselves never doubted it, we now find ourselves in a position where I say that we can be sure that we have only to persevere to conquer.

Only when you Secure my Border will you secure my vote.

Don't Tread On Me.

God Bless the Nation

[Jim Robinson]

The people of California just tossed one proponent of citizenship for illegals over the side, and soundly rejected another (Bustamante). And they shoved the drivers license for illegals where the sun don't shine. Hope Boxer tries to run on full citizenship for illegals. I can hardly wait until she's jettisoned with the rest of the debris.

Typing away on a web site isn't going to amount to a hill of beans.

Then why are you here........;)

I think typing away on a website is going to be the wave of the future. Every man a journalist, an eyewitness.

I suspect strongly that this website amounts to much more than a hill of beans. I think you would be surprised by how many policy makers drop in and observe. Actually, I would say many on the Hill pay a great deal of attention to this site.

[Jim Robinson]

Well, the Mexican border is just one of the battles. The total WAR is against Marxism in general and the liberals and the Democrat Party specifically. Whether they'll admit it or not, even to themselves, the liberal Democrats are on a mission to destroy America by destroying our society, our culture, our traditions, our heritage, our national sovereignty, and our way of life.

The ONLY thing standing between them and total destruction are the handful of conservatives in the Republican Party. If we cancel them out by allowing the Democrats to retake power, we will have lost their voice and will lose the war.

That's why I keep encouraging people NOT to surrender to the left. I know it's discouraging when the Republicans don't do what we wish they'd do, but don't give in and don't give up. There will always be a better day if we don't capitulate and let the left win the war.

Ronald Reagan didn't give in when the days were darkest and no one believed he'd ever succeed, and neither should we.

I just came across Freeper Imal on another subject and he shared his blog sight. You might find what he has to say about immigration thought provoking.
Here's the Blog: http://imal.blogspot.com/

And here are his comments:
Bush Versus Illegal Immigration

---

From President Bush's weekly radio address:

"This past week, I proposed a new temporary worker program that would match willing foreign workers with willing American employers, when no Americans can be found to fill the jobs. If an American employer is offering a job that American citizens are not willing to take, we ought to welcome into our country a person who will fill that job."

The actual number of illegals in the U.S. is somewhat higher than the 8 million typically reported, and the number is growing.

I favor enforcement of our laws, which has definitely NOT been happening due to a variety of factors, mostly a combination of corruption and the apathy upon which corruption thrives.

However, the reality is that mass deportations are simply not possible short of a declaration of martial law. Attempting to deport even just 100,000 people would clog America's courts so thoroughly that we would be facing chaos. Make it ten million, and it's literally not doable.

That's not even considering the political backlash that would probably unseat the party that tries this, as well as direct opposition from Congress and the Supreme Court. Anyone who thinks they would not intervene has not been paying attention for the past few decades. While it is certain that America's court system and laws of civil procedure also desperately need revision, it would be folly to expect that to happen any time soon.

A solution dependent on other solutions is not a solution. I'm not happy about it, but that's the way it is.

If America implements a guest worker program that actually works, closes abusive loopholes such as anchor babies (How about "You are only born a U.S. citizen if your parent is a legal U.S. citizen."), federally-mandated welfare for illegals (How about "We'll help you until we drop you off at the border."), etc. etc.

The cat is already out of the bag, mainly because having a class of easy-to-exploit cheap labor is the equivalent of crack cocaine to many U.S. business interests, who in turn funnel money into political war chests and lobbying to maintain the status quo on this issue. While I prefer to stand firmly on principle myself, those who think money -- lots of money -- isn't at the root of this problem have no concept of what the problem really is.

The grim reality of illegal immigration is that it is a very real and complex issue that will never be resolved with tautologies, blind reductionism or mendacious sophistry.

Instead, somebody actually has to get off their duff and do something about it, and that is what our President is doing, like it or not.

"We Shall Fight them on the beaches"

Actually, Churchill's real plan was to use poison gas on the beachheads of massive German landings. This is well-documented.

Okay, the poison gas thing isn't as inspirational as the rhetoric but it was a pretty good plan. Churchill was kind of a fan of poison gas in WW I and for some period after.

They are subject to impeachment. Something that has not been used enough, in my opinion.
