Tom Tancredo for President 2008:"Our last and only hope to save AMERICA"

After the White House news conference this morning, Bill Kristol on Fox News praised President Bush's remarks about "immigration reform" as "eloquent." Beg to differ. The president's open-borders statements were empty, garish platitudes strung together sloppily like cheap Christmas lights:
Illegal aliens "do the job Americans won't do." President Bush used that dog-tired phrase about a half-dozen times during today's press conference as he defended his impending illegal alien amnesty plan. Mark Krikorian effectively puts this mindless rhetoric to rest here.
"Family values don't stop at the Rio Grande." Uh huh. Well, terrorists and gang members and drunken murderers and cop-killers don't stop there either. And based on past and recent experience, granting amnesty to 13 million law-breakers will only result in more illegal immigration, not less.
We need immigration reform that "recognizes reality." Rank-and-file immigration enforcement officials give a real reality check on the amnesty debacle here, here, and here.
As immigration enforcement veteran/former U.S. prosecutor Peter Nunez put it:
[W]e need to stop the talk of a coming amnesty, or of a guest worker program, both of which, by themselves, serve to encourage additional illegal immigration. What kind of message are we sending when we dangle that possibility before people desperate enough to put their lives at risk? Doesn’t this kind of talk also indicate that we really don’t care much about law breaking, that we don’t really care that much about the rule of law, that these immigration laws exist only as a token objection to the violation of our sovereignty? Now, that is eloquent.
Bump for use later.
We need to hold an intervention with Bush on this issue...

We don't need leverage just logic... I don't think he has had anyone pursuade him to do anytinhg about the border, yet...
#1 - ALL illiegal immigrants leave the country.
#2 - the federal/state/county/municiple govts make a real and concerted effort to find and deport any illegal immigrants that DON'T leave the USA. The border guards and customs officers have lists of those deported and DON'T let them back in.
#3 - Only those aliens with PROOF of an employer be let back into the USA.
THEN, I support the President's guest worker policy.
Exactly right. No one better to vote for and we're stuck with this nonsense for four years.
Another great article by Michelle Malkin. That gal tells it like it is. The open borders lobby must hate her guts.
The leverage you have is not with President Bush but with the coming 2006 election and with the GOP.
Someone there has to listen and do something constructive.
And if they refuse to do so, then we need to start recall campaigns and just generally make sure they do not get elected again.
Barf. Just another "Bush's crap don't stink because he's a Republican and maybe rewarding border intruders and other lawbreakers really might be a good idea after all" post.
Spoken by a true "Money before Country", traitor.
I say we kick them all out and find out if this statement is true or just 'talk'.
