That makes more sense, thanks.
No doubt about it, their only allegiance is to the almighty dollar, euro, rupee, or yuan.
They only need the American people to defend their fiefdoms against the barbarians.
These corporations used to be the great engines of wealth for all Americans.
Now they are like a cancer in our midst, siphoning all our jobs and middle class life away from us and sending them overseas to communist or socialist countries.
I hate to think what kind of country America will be in twenty or thirty years...
No. It is a contraction of "never." A "ne'er-do-well" is a chronic failure, a "loser," someone who "never does well."
Here we are being dictated to, and the majortity is clearly not being represented.
It's clear, we want government to stop this attack on our sovereignty and our borders. While those in government stand winking and nodding at this epic, invasion of millions, and suggesting we just legalize them, give them driver's licenses, come up with plans that they know damn well will never work and only create more fraud and chaos.
We are being dictated too. The American people spoke loud and clear, we want it stopped. Californians voted overwhelmingly for CA Prop 187. The feds, in concert with the state government burned our ballots and declared our free election illegal! Fast forward about a decade. Cities like LA, Dallas, Raliegh North Carolian, Denver, Houston, Phoenix, Tennessee, Utah, Ohio, Indiana, etc, are now literally crawling with millions of illegals.
I can only hope the rest of this country wakes the hell up. At this point I am not real confident, as most have their heads up their butts worrying about political tit for tat over who is banging who, or who's political celebrity served better in the military 35 years ago.
Were in deep sh*t.
Uh, federal money belongs to the taxpayers as much as state money does. Most Americans do not want to shoulder the burden that illegal immigration places on us, and we shouldn't have to.
They act in the best interest of the country on occassion, regardless of the politics.
That's the anti-democratic essence of the contemporary GOP, Joe. From Lincoln's "government of the people, by the people, and for the people," to wirestripper's concept of a Khomeinist "Guardian Council" government acting "in the best interest of the country on occassion, regardless of the politics." Nothing better sums up how the GOP has fully, finally and completely turned not only on its base, but its fundamental founding principles.
Thanks, wirestripper. You've educated us maybe more than your handlers wanted you to.
Skeeter is smarter than me. Always ask him first. ;)
Bush pledged to revisit guest worker programs and other ways for immigrants to come into the country, but said he would insist on immigration controls and a waiting period before citizenship.

I used to think "if you want to hide something from a democrat, put it in a book" but in 2004, replace democrat with American. Many of our citizens are truly asleep at the wheel.
Link to Constitution Party platform
At least these guys have a plan.
Anyone?
The Bush proposal, (and that is all it is) has some things in it that seem to be totally lost on the opponents. This fact was brought up at the hearing yesterday.
The Bush proposal controls the numbers by linking it to demand. It also controls the currently un-controlled employers.
All attempts to control the employer have failed up to now. This proposal does it via the interview. It collects information on the employer from the applicant. That info can then be data based for IRS to access.
My feeling is that it will indeed act as a limiting factor on the total number of jobs available and therefore control the previously uncontrollable influx of job seekers.
This is the heart of the idea. Not amnesty.
Glad to help.
BTW, the only person that handles me is my wife. (and she has her hands full)
