I can't believe the nerve of Bush...
Now, a smart politician would move right at her, just like you do with a Knight on a chessboard. Push her to sponsor an immigration reform bill. Offer to partner with her on it, along with Tom Tancredo. Make her run away. She and her friends in the media would drop this latest beard like it was afire.
Oh, I agree with you that Bush is wrong on this issue. But does Hillary think red-staters are that stupid that they can't see through her?
She has no intentions of actually doing anything about it if she were prez. She just wants to zig when she sees Bush zag.
I can't believe the LACK of nerve of our leaders.
Hillary is playing a political game, you know it, I know it, and most people here know it. The problem is, it's going to play extremely well to the masses and could very well topple the Republicans from power if they do NOT pull their heads out of their asses on this issue.
President would veto, which gets her off the hook.
When they're vying for a presidential nomination. The rest of the time such things are racist and zenophobic.
She looks more conservative on border security to me than does Bush. Bush had better get his act together.
Hillary doesn't have to get people to vote for her. All she has to do is exploit the issue and get people to not vote for another open borders sovereignty sellout like Bush.
The best way to avoid this is to nominate and run a staunch true conservative (unlike Bush), who will enforce the borders and immigration laws (which would exclude Jeb, btw).
The problem is that if the 'Rats succeed, the borders will be more open than ever.
So tell me oh smart one the Jr Sen from NY; What did your Husband and you and your party do for border security the 8 whole years you two were in the White House? What's that? I can't hear you. What's that? Oh the same as you did for national security and the hunt for Al-Quedia. Soooooo that's NUTTIN!
Shut Up Hillery!
Nah, I don't see it. Hillary won't be running against Bush in '08. So it'll be a debate between her and her opponent.
But let's hope not because we have an emergency that can't wait for 08. Bush has gotta fix the borders now!
HCBPB on __insert latest screed here___ to save ink cause they must print hillery blasts bush at LEAST ten times a week!!!
LOL! One more 'red' state...
H-E-L-L
I think Clinton is making a smart move by raising this issue. And those of us who don't want to see her president would be wise to take this issue seriously. Telling her to shut up won't work.
She didn't do anything about illegal immigration or terrorism when she was president. Niether did her co-president.
This is what you get when you leave that big a gap between what the people want and what you're prepared to do. If there's room for Hillary to run to your right on an issue, you know you've got a problem, Mr. President.
Well, I seem to recall that EVERY Democrat under the sun called Republicans Racists when they tried to pass a number of immigration referendums in CA.
Remember? CA tried to stem the flow of illegals and the entire national DEM apparatus had a field day tagging every Republican as a hate-filled racist. Yeah, I believe Hillary is sincere, sure. /s
