Re: Bush's stand on immigration; Most folks are watching as his left hand moves, but it's his right hand that's doing the deed. I helped elect W as my chief, and we won. I'm stickin' with the president.

"Take away the welfare and the free jobs and enact a viable guest worker program and illegal immigration will drop to a very manageable situation."So, you and I are in complete agreement on the solution.

The illegal immigration threads are no worse or better than the abortion threads, the evolution threads, or the euthanasia threads. Opinions are like...well you know.
The poster whom you were posting to is a bit angry/over the top. I am aware of this. That anger comes from someone who lives on 'the front line' so to speak. L.A., one of the main illegal immigration centers. We have all but put out a welcome and information desk for them.
And sometimes it seems like instead of holding a pol's feet to the fire over an issue, we want to handle them with velvet gloves, because they have an R next to their name. And that's where all the anger and emotion on this issue comes from, and from that poster in particular.
Considering the poster's adversarial tone, I cannot imagine a more congenial approach, but am always open to suggestion.
That's nice.

I think the dems know that FR has gotten quite a reputation now, so they may see this as a good place to try to subvert the forumAs you suggest, this is the reason we see so many trolls here.

I've never gotten more than a stern "knock it off" from the Mods. When they talk, I listen. Simple as that. From what I understand, few if any of those recently purged were afforded that courtesy. Most have no idea why they were banned and there is no appeal.

I haven't been purged yet, and I oppose it vehemently. So either you've not been thorough, or they're full of Hillary-speak. Hey! Can I be purged too?? < / sarcasm >

I'm stickin' with the president...and with JR.
JR, I haven't taken the time to read the whole thread. Whatever you decide is fine by me. You've brought us where we are today...may as well tag along awhile longer. It's been quite a ride!

My name is spelled with a "z" at the end...and I've been banned from FR many times for my posts.
Perhaps, you missed my banishments, but I'll make sure to mail you an announcement next time it happens.

I suspect you often feel you have gotten the best of people in arguments.
I personally think making little snide comments, and yucking it up with others about other people is rude.
I guess I have been guilty of attacking people sometimes but never do I congratulate myself on how smart I am.

It just got extremely heated and everyone ended up calling everyone else names.
I don't think anyone should have been banned, but quite a few needed some time outs.

From what I understand, few if any of those recently purged were afforded that courtesy. Most have no idea why they were banned and there is no appeal. Most had probably been warned before or were found to have been previously banned. (I assume that if you're banned once and come back without permission you will be banned again as soon as you're discovered.)
To: BJClinton
nopardons is a moderate on La Migra....not open borders nor sealed ...a pragmatist.
I'm betting it's not over immigration.

I'm always amazed at people who hate it here, but post just so they can copy and paste stuff onto THEIR web sites. Aye. What really cracks me up is that they go to all the trouble of creating an identity and posting their latest scream about how we won't let them scream, then scream that they might get kicked off for screaming too loud!
