Dammit, George! Can you just SHUT UP about this before the election!? Focus on your strong points and stay well away from the things that will alienate your base. And, for goodness sakes, stop pandering!!!

I can't wait to see what Kerry proposes and I'm going to laugh my A$$ off when him and his party makes more in roads into America with their agenda.

The only way bad men can suceed is when good men do nothing.

It's not amnesty. It's getting a grip on a big problem.

My daughter is a cop in a Western city, and when she arrests these people, they pull out twenty different forms of ID in 20 different names, and nobody knows who they are. If she calls them by one of their "names," they don't even look up, so that obviously was not their name in the first place.

To deal with the problem of illegals, we have to start somewhere, and that somewhere is by identifying them.

"Amnesty" means offering or granting citizenship to these people, which is exactly what Kerry said in the last debate that he was going to do: "People who have been here and haven't caused any problems," as I recall.

Bush is getting names and addresses; they can stay for now, but they're not on a fast track to citizenship. And now we at least have their data, and so does Mexico (which is extremely bad about repatriating people), and Mexico will no longer be able to deny it.

I thought Kerry's amnesty was supposed to be only for illegal aliens who could prove they had paid their taxes? Of course he could be lying. What are the odds of that? LOL!

Shhh, kerry's total amnesty is not to be discussed among the infantismal classes of schizophrenic Buchanan brigadiers, who mask themselves as kerry opponents.

Ok Cutie, how do you close a 2,000 mile border.

One mile at a time. And please start in Cochise County Arizona.

If you arrest, prosecute, and jail those who HIRE illegals - which is a direct violation of Federal law, much of the problem would resolve itself. If all welfare benefits, free medical care, education, etc. had a proof of citizenship or valid Green Card requirement, it would also go a long way to reversing the flow.

Anyone who hores them should be cooling their heels in one of our may fine Fedreal correctional facilities. Perhaps they can share excercise time with such luminaries as Manuel Norriega. I am frankly sick and tired of those who call themselves "conservative" advocating and excusing lawlessness and welfare fraud. Those who employ illegal aliens are the moral equivalent of slaveowners.

I surmise making the Mexican economy more viable is a verboten concept to you.

OK. Now tell us how you'd manage this problem:

CNN shows America just what a land mine does to a child. Little Paco's legs are blown off, and his intestines are hanging out of his torso as he flops on the ground.

Oh, and they're doing this during the breakfast hour.

Now, the question is: how do you keep those land mines in place past lunch time?

Small problem: it's been tried, back in 1986--these laws were greatly tightened up as part of the Reagan amnesty.

For some reason, juries were unwilling to convict pillars of the community when cases were brought to trial.

Yup, I'm sure those words of support from the President for Mexican criminals encourages even more to cross the US border illegally and await President Bush's lawbreaker reward card!

Jobs Americans won't do = minimum wage, no benefits, no health insurance, dead-end, no future, below poverty level, jobs.

If there wasn't a flood of 8 million plus illegal aliens pouring across the southern borders of America, these jobs would have higher standards and pay and they would attract American workers.

Of course the President and his party AND the demoRats all know this...its all a game...

Gee, I think that concept will have a response of crickets by the Buchananites.
