Oh, that's just great logic. One's a racist for recognizing that a country has borders. "Win their hearts and minds." How fitting that you compare the Balkanization of America into a third world country to Iraq and Afghanistan.
It took us decades to purge the party of the KKK types but we still haven't fully recovered the trust of the black community.
Really? KKK types?? Friends of yours? Do you have the GOP confused with the Democrats?
Ridding the party of Buchanan was just a first step.
I guess now we have to rid the party of Rush according to your logic. As far as Pat goes, I believe he left the party of his own choice. It's amazing how you ignore the substance of Rush's comments by putting your own spin on it and playing the race card. What a "compassionate" conservative you are. Keep whistling Pollyanna past the GOP's grave, nay, past America's grave.
I apologize for the harshness of my reply. On further reflection, I would have phrased it differently; I'm just put off by what I see as a non-chalant attitude by FReepers to what I consider the future demise of our Republic.
And when those of us who do care about the direction of our nation raise the issue, we are immediately villified as racists, isolationists, etc. in an attempt to shout us down and kill the debate.
Sallright. There is lots of room for people of good will to disagree on immigration policy. I'd just likew to get Bush reelected first.
Agreed on that point.
