''We have a terrific relationship with Mexico,'' Schwarzenegger said. ''I filmed four movies in Mexico, I love to go on vacation to Mexico. We have a great trade agreement with Mexico.''


Yea, it's only costing California taxpayers NINE BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR because RINOld doesn't have the stones to call out the CA National Guard to secure the border...since W won't do anything!

This clown would be laughable if he weren't so pathetic!

Well, I won't say "I told you so!"

We elect a RINO and he takes the CA debt from THIRTY BILLION TO FORTY BILLION IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS!

Is this a great state or what!

Semper Fi,
Kelly

Americans are opposed to illegal immigration. Our elite doesn't get it yet. With initiatives like the Minutemen Project, we're working to get our country back despite the indifference and hostility of the political class.

"Critics pounced, and Schwarzenegger apologized the next day. He blamed faulty English for the gaffe, and said he was for ''securing the borders'' instead."

Nevermind what I posted about his cajones after he said "close the border" I guess he doesn't have any after all.

There are no re-dos in the real world, unlike Hollywood.

Boxer warned that President Bush's proposed guest worker program to grant legal status to millions of immigrants living in the United States would ''open the floodgates'' to more illegal immigration. And Feinstein helped block a bill to legalize about 500,000 farmworkers in the U.S., calling it a ''huge magnet'' for illegal newcomers.

Insert comments about broken clocks and blind squirels here. Seriously if the Dems do a 180 and become the party that stands for ending illegal immigration they could win back the Whitehouse and Congress in '08. I hope the country club Republicans are paying attention.

The politicians in california fear nothing and operate with impunity for running the state into the ground. Consider how many were voted out of office in the last election.

"Nevermind what I posted about his cajones after he said "close the border" I guess he doesn't have any after all."

And neither does Frist, Hastert especially regarding JUDGES and ILLEGALS...
and even W regarding the issue of illegals.

The GOP has become the "Gelding Old Party!"

I wish that were true. Here in Utah, hardly a hotbed of liberal activism, the state Legislature won't do much of anything to get rid of illegals. They even voted to give them "driving privilege cards" rather than just simply kick them off the driver license rolls.

There are a lot of Republican-supporting business owners who WANT illegals depressing wages here, while the ordinary taxpayers bear the burden of supporting them. Until we identify and boycott the businesses that whore out our country for a quick buck, we won't get a handle on the problem.

Americans are opposed to illegal immigration.
======
And it is much bigger than that. Real Americans oppose:
1. The sanctioned breaking of our laws.
2. The REWARDED breaking of our laws.
3. The mockery that is made of U.S. citizenship.
4. The obscene tax thefth from the taxpayer to fund the illegals (against the will of the people).
5. The issue of national security as to what and who comes across our borders with ZERO traceability or knowledge.
6. Last but not least, the arrogance and irresponsibility of our Washington government in terms of fixing the issue.

Yes, there is alot more too it, than just the illegals, MUCH MUCH MORE!!!

In another 5 years there will be nobody left in CA except illegal immigrants. Any native born whites with any sense at all have either already left the state or are planning on leaving soon.

My impression is that Feinstein has always been pretty good on this issue, by which I mean she has always stood up for border security.

There is NO REASON why we should let just anyone who wanders into this country stay here. And there is NO REASON why our borders should not be secure. And if Vicente Fox and anybody else does not like it they can lump it.

One of these illegal immigrants is going to have to knock off a top politician before anything is done.

Your right, they are fleeing to Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana and bringing all their Californicate ideas with them. As soon as they arrive in the above states they begin to initiate the same crap that ruined CA. They never learn. Airheads all.

you're making my point. 3,000 people could die, and no action on the borders at all. I bet that if a political bigwig got popped by an illegal alien while walking down Rodeo Blvd., all hell would break loose in DC.

I think Bush's masters have told him it's his job to push through the FTAA at all costs and the reason he does nothing about the border is that ill. immigration helps the whole process of conditioning us to the fact the globalists are going to stick it to us no matter what. That's why we see more dual language packaging, more bilingual teachers, more "services" for these newly arrived colonists from Mexico, etc. and a very heavy emphasis on shaking down gray haired old folks in airports while leaving the borders porous.

Where will the Hollywood crowd go? To say nothing of the yuppie/Guppie crowd in the Bay Area?

Cali has the most expensive real estate in the country. Somebodys paying a ton of money for those houses aside from poor illegals.
