I would like to know what business you had intended to operate, and the labor shortages are endemic to same.

When it comes to illegals, who in Washington has more power, Tancredo or the United Farm Workers?

Considering that he never used illegal labor, his remodeling cost will be about the same.

The whole illegal aliens labor thing has been debunked, right here on FR, many times.

Yes it has. Yet the same posters bring it up EVERY time the man's name is mentioned.

"has been debunked"

Maybe to your satisfaction. Put that boy in a national race and they will rip him apart over it.

It came up in his reelection to the House. They tried and failed to rip him apart. It will be the same on a National scale.

Now, having said that, that does not me I think he is a shoe in. He would still have to sell himself on a number of other issues. That will be what makes him or breaks him.

LOL, I know.

It's pretty pathetic on their part ; kind of like the dims that keep bringing up Bush’s National Guard service.

Do you believe welfare benefits should be available to illegal immigrants?

I like Tom and used to be in his district until they created the new 7th CD but Tancredo is about as exciting a presidential candidate as Gary Bauer. Tancredo just isn't presidential timber, IMO (I can think of five or six candidates that I would support for Colo's gov first, for that matter).

And to pick a couple of nits, It wasn't Colorado voters who have "spoken" but rather the 6th CD voters, for the second time, since this was an issue in the 2002 campaign, not the 2004 campaign.

Ben wouldn't answer me on that one...maybe he'll bless you with an answer, after he gets over my "gibberish" comment.

Well if it that important to you, why don't you lead off? If it sounds believable, I'll respond.

I can assure you that I don't import cheap crap from Asia.
