I see a retraction coming from Rep King any day now after he accepts an invitation to the White House.

Which is exactly why everyone on this board must call or e-mail his office, congratulate him on his position, and encourage him to stand his ground.

They're catching illegals? 1% of the total who come here. This is laughable.

If we could get them deputised I could get 100 Americans that would be happy to shoot back.

Washington Times - Snipers working as "lookouts" for drug traffickers and illegal-alien smugglers are targeting U.S. Border Patrol agents from vantage points across the U.S.-Mexico border.

"Then why is an Army unit from Hunter Army Airfield, Savannah GA, currently training on the New Mexico border with JTF-North? "

Can you identify the unit? Can you describe the training objectives?

[international american]

Correct!

King said the measure he's pushing would put in place severe financial penalties for companies hiring illegal workers, ending the companies' ability to take deductions on wages and benefits for those workers.

"That will change the dynamic of this," said King. "That will slow the growth in this job magnet that's driving our illegal immigration."

Bingo. That's the catalyst to begin deportation.

I would like to believe that our congress critters would vote in support of his bill, but I've lost faith in them doing what is right for America/Americans!

[Pro-Bush]

BUMP!

[Stopislamnow]

Nah. There are enough coyotes and drug runners to keep the troops shooting expert.

...That translates that 'We The People' will pay more.

yessuh-pay fellow citizens/legal residents for consumption which is produced here.

[MikefromOhio]

ok and?

you are STILL mirroring John Kerry, Conyer's and Spector with your impeachment garbage. JUST so you know who is on your side.


As for this subject, I don't think the Active US Army should be on the border. We are stretched a bit thin and we have commitments in Iraq AND Afghanistan.

But the national guard and reserve? Hell yes. But not shoulder to shoulder. That wouldnt work, we don't have the manpower for that.

Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, called today for deploying the military to seal the borders against illegal immigration and stiff new financial penalties for employers who hire aliens.

Good for Steve King! Another Rep who cares what's happening to our country. I wish the CA Reps would wake up, but they're too busy smooching up to the open borders lobby.

I see a retraction coming from Rep King any day now after he accepts an invitation to the White House.

I hope not, I hope he sticks to his guns. I do remember, though, how Arnold Governator changed his tune about illegal immigration (he clammed up) after a visit from GWBush.
