WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Bush administration backed off plans to require that millions of visa-carrying Mexicans who make short visits to America and stay close to the border be fingerprinted and photographed to get into the country.

Asa Hutchinson, the Homeland Security department's undersecretary for border and transportation, was to publicly announce the policy change at a Capitol Hill hearing Thursday, a congressional official who was briefed on the plan told The Associated Press.

A vote for Tancredo, or anybody but Bush, is a vote for gridlock.

Oh you think? Ok. LOL.

You have a nice day.

Your logic is severely flawed.

Illegal immigration is the linch pin of all other Conservative issues. The more 3rd world, Socialist/Communist, unskilled, uneducated criminals that are allowed into our country, the more votes and support the Liberal/Socialist Republicans and Democrats get.

One shouldn't have to be a wiz-kid to figure out that the Liberals are diluting the strength of our votes.

The first two ultra-Socialist years of Bill and Hillary started a Conservative revolution in this country. Two years of Kerry will do the same, if it happens.

Give me gridlock!

[Prodigal Son]

Your logic is severely flawed.

LOL. OK. You just keep right on telling yourself that.

What your method works out to is basically:

'Hey y'all! Watch this!'

[4Freedom]

What your method works out to is a continuation of the same one-world, open-borders, Socialist crap we had under Bush I, Clinton and Bush II.

No thanks.

At least the Republicans will fight a Socialist Democrat.

I've been looking for my link to where Bush#1 says he is trying to get us to a One World Government. When I first saw that I wondered why he wasn't arrested for traitorism.

I don't think our current President has followed his Oath of Office either.

[Robert_Paulson2]

Two for one...
we voted for bush, we got fox AND bush... at no extra charge!

hablamos espanol, y usted?

unfrigginbelievable.

I think Fox wants you speaking Spanish --- it's unfair for the citizens of Mexico moving here that they don't understand everything. Clinton already made it a requirement that all welfare office workers speak Spanish for the immigrants coming to get on welfare.

[Robert_Paulson2]

All 'conservatives' who don't vote for Bush 'out of principle' are dumber than Greens.

You present false dichotomies pal. "Gridlock" or more "feel good" globalist socialism might be a more accurate one.

[Prodigal Son]

Ahh. So you deign to respond to me on this thread?

[Prodigal Son]

Make that this thread.

[Prodigal Son]

I don't think our current President has followed his Oath of Office either.

Ok. And you envision Kerry doing this better?

Oh man.

Better to have the French at my back than you.

[Prodigal Son]

Hey, in January, you know this picture of you?

"Yeah, we blowed ourselves up real good, didn't we?"

Picture John Candy.

That's you.

;-)

You will deserve the President you voted for.

When you look in the mirror next year and you're hating life- that's you. You did that to yourself.

You're a conservative.

You can't claim stupidity as a defense.

It sucks, in that way, to be conservative.

Hey, you have a nice day. John Kerry needs your donations RIGHT NOW. You're campaigning for him anyway, you may as well raise funds.

"I'm not going to piss on my countrymen..."

Why not? The President has seen fit to set the precedent. :(

[Prodigal Son]

Hey, are you saying that Bush pissed on the average American?

Come on, say it.

I know you can.

Why support al Qaeda when you have a choice?

Why would you do that? Are you partial to burkhas?

You gonna suck Kerry's backside for the next 8 years? Is that what you want?

Oh, yeah, baby. You're too conservative for me.

I'd take a Green over you. They're smarter. They learned their lesson in 2000.

F--k it. Vote for Kerry and Bin Laden. It's your choice.

Hey, when we win without you- where does that leave you?

Where does that leave you?

[4Freedom]

That'll be Bush and Rove lamenting their own lost election ala John Candy.

According to the most recent poll posted on FR, fully 73% of American citizens are against Bush's plan to make life easier for illegal aliens, BUT HE'S GOING TO DO IT ANYWAY!!!!

If Bush loses this election, he has no-one to blame but himself.

[Prodigal Son]

If Bush loses this election, he has no-one to blame but himself.

Hey buddy. You might see it that way.

But I.

I'm gonna blame You.

Because you're not a liberal you can't claim to have been stupid. You knew better.

You know better.

Vote for Kerry. Hey, fine with me. That's fine.

Piss on your countrymen if you like.

But keep in mind, a lot's at stake.

[4Freedom]

According to the latest poll, 73% of American citizens don't want the President to make it easier for illegal aliens to stay in the United States.

At least 73% of Americans are smart enough to see that these illegals dilute their votes, cost more to support than they contribute to America and that America will be a worse place to live, if they're allowed to stay.

Congratulations, you, Bush and Rove are in the 27% that ain't so smart. That's a real achievement. ;^)

[Prodigal Son]

Vote for Kerry if that's what you want.

[Prodigal Son]

Hey, and btw. Leave the smiley face off.
