"Illegal immigration and securing the country's borders affect every aspect of American life, including jobs, health care, education and national security, he said."

That's it in a nutshell yet it is like the Elephant in the corner - No one will spell out what they are going to do about it.

Tancredo is right.

No doubt the usual race pimps will show up soon and accuse him and we who agree with him of being racists.

The racists are the ruling class of Mexico, who are happy to rid themselves of the Mestizo population and prosper their corrupt regime in the process.

Mexico needs regime change.

This is the #1 issue I oppose George Bush on, even more than Campaign Finance.

I was taking part in a thread last night that got out of hand and was pulled as these threads sometimes do.

One point I tried to make is that by some estimates a full 5% or more of our population is of the illegal immigrant variety and there are those in this country that are just fine with that.

What would these same people say if they woke to a news report telling them that overnight an invading force of that size entered the country. They would be screaming for our elected leaders to do something to get them out of here.

Rove in a streak of brilliance has triangulated Bush as some messianiac liberal cult leader, cutting off the lefties from their spiritual honey pot, but this is only a short term benefit and it is for Bush and his cronies only, we get the bill when these people head off to Davos to live in their well guarded villas.

Bush better do something before most of our middle class and working class jobs are destroyed along with our economy. There is a crisis looming like no other crisis.

"This is an issue I want all the Presidential candidates to debate. I want the candidates when they come here to answer the questions, 'What are you going to do about the borders? Will you commit troops to the border?' " U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo of Colorado

Tom, please re-read the Constitution.

Article I, Section 8 Powers of Congress, Cl 15

To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions:

You and the rest of members of Congress don't have to wait for the President to "commit troops to the border."

Step up to the plate and begin to insist that your fellow members of Congress do the job they were sworn to do and call up the Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California militias to repel the invasion.

On Immigration Tom Tancredo is much closer to being Right
than President Bush is.Irecall someone claiming they would
rather be right than President,once. As for the Bush comment about the Mexican nationals taking jobs Americans
wont --I can recall when one could go to any motel and the
staff all spoke the lingua franca(English) now--in Denver
it is difficult to find any hotel where the staff-with the
singular exception of the reception desk,most often speak
Spanish.Borders ,Language, and Culture are a p poor tradeooff for cheap and easy to abuse labor from Mexico--
nobody every explains WHY that old Fox will not provide work for his own people.

"The issue is where do you get cheaper workers. Cheap is only that to employers, not to the American taxpayers," he said.

This sums up the problem pretty much. Also how unstable does the USA have to become to keep the corrupt Mexican oligarchs in power.

Their first stop was to present an American Patriot Award to New Ipswich Police Chief Garrett Chamberlain; he detained nine Ecuadorian immigrants last summer, but federal officials told him to release them.

These "Federal Officials" should be immediately charged with dereliction of duty and thrown out of whatever job it is that they do.

WE pay their GD Salaries and if the SOBs will not do their jobs then it is time for them to go on unemployment.

He said he will introduce a bill this session to double the number of border patrol officers and train them to use technology for better surveillance of the borders. He estimated it would cost about $8 million to double the border patrol and several billion dollars for the technology.

What I don't understand is the extra guards have already been approved by Congress, why don't they just add the funding that was left out in the budget themselves? As far as I know they're free to do that so what's the need for a new bill?

Once Again, Tancredo is right in what he is doing. We need to hold not just the President's feet to the fire, We need to hold all of his successors as well.

Bush is a good man, but he needs to be read the riot act on this issue.

Save your 'political capitol' for something ALL Americans really need, Mr President - SSI reform. Looks like you're gonna need all of it just for that one issue.

Can you imagine the uproar if Bush was this dishonest and hypocritical?

"The issue is where do you get cheaper workers. Cheap is only that to employers, not to the American taxpayers," Tancredo said.

Illegal labor aided Tancredo
