All they've done is help Burr and Ballantine.
Watch the short debate segment HERE, and ask yourself whose policies made this issue "rear it's head."
The people who have done nothing are the Republicans. They're so petrified that somebody might call them a name, or that a big contributor might not have enough cheap labor that they've been running from this issue. We have a Republican Congress and President, but they've let things slide to the point where we have 3 million illegals arriving every year. Here in Southern California, we've had enough of this fecklessness, and we're targeting Repubican Congressman David Dreier and Democrat Congressman Joe Baca for ejection from office. They're going to be the examples of what happens when you sell out on the illegal immigration issue.
I have it on good authority that INS undercover agents will be stationed at polling places where illegals are expected to vote. (please pass this rumor along)
There is no merit in these articles or posts at this time that do not contribute to denying Kerry the WH.
The truth scares you, huh? Until Jim Robinson says we must stop, posting about the republicans lack of concern over illegal immigration is open for discussion. And, until these chickensh%t republs do anything, they will still hear it from us.
Let's face it. Our borders are sieves and nobody Dem/Rep seems to be doing anything about it!
We'll look forward to seeing y'all at campaign headquarters today working to deny Kerry the WH. Eyes on the prize, and that denial is something we can all agree on.
I thought dems were supposed to be tolerant of others and their points of view (immigration, etc.). But I guess that's why Republican offices are being broken into and little girls' get their Bush signs ripped a part. Tolerance is the thing.
Guy, I know it is a hot button. I also know that this election is about volunteer energy. We simply can't have any divergence of that energy right now. It will condemn the country to life under the opposition philosophy for decades via the Supreme Court nominations that the gutless GOP Senate will not obstruct with filibuster.
It's vital that we win. This hot button issue will not be more favorably under Kerry.
Priorities are in play here, and denial of the WH to Kerry trumps everything.

Hear Hear! Mega bump!
We've been through all this before. You're consciously, intentionally rewarding Kerry. Full stop. Period.
There's no in between and no path through the mine field. You clear it or you blow up. No third way pretense.
You oppose Kerry's entry to the WH or you don't. No way out. A choice has to be made.

"You oppose Kerry's entry to the WH or you don't. No way out. A choice has to be made"
What kind of political doctrine is that? Shi'ite Republicanism? The heck with that.
>
It's not doctrine. It's tactics. Tactics trump policy every single time, and we all know it. If you don't win, you can't define policy. If Kerry wins, he defines it, on everything.
There is no way out of it. I know it's unpleasant and uncomfortable to have a choice you don't like, but that doesn't change reality. That's all there is. There is no third way. There is no vehicle for pretense. It's about Kerry or not. It's not about anything else.
It's like "politics stops at the water's edge" for war. That became true when the Democrats selected Kerry.

It is clear that Tom Ridge's top priority since 9/11 has been to assure unhindered passage of Mexican trucks across our border rather than protect us from terrorist infiltration.

A NC immigration thread..... time for an anecdote.
I was taveling to Spruce Pine NC, deep in the mountains and nowhere near a well beaten path, when I happened on a mountainside covered with fir trees.... a christmas tree palntation. At the bottom were four obviously hispanic men operating a strange looking machine. I watched a while and continued on my way.
On the return, I stopped again with a better vantage and could see they were removing christmas trees from a wagon, running them through the machine that enveloped them in a plastic net sleeve, and loading them on a flat bed trailer.
Here I was, miles away from a town of any size, deep in the mountains watching Mexican laborers processing christmas trees for the masses in some far away city.
A man came over, a white man, and asked if he could be of service. I told him no, I was watching his operation and crop harvesting machinery. He laughed and said the workers feared I was INS.
For the record. the Christmas tree farming is a positive result of the NC State University Ag School as oposed to the negative result being the undesirable candidate for vice president who graduating from a technical college ended up a plaintiff's lawyer.
