Study this thread (and the locked one with the MP3 sound file for three kinds of FReepers:

1. Enthusiastic supporters of Tancredo's gall, often with sound explanations for why he was right.
2. Reserved critics. Of course there would be doubt.
3. The career open borders, pro-amnesty, limited war proponents.

Type three are here in force. I'd list them out, but there's hardly any need. They're drawn here like moths to the flame. Anyone who doesn't agree with them is a "nutcase," of course. Securing the borders and winning the war in a decisive manner are fringe viewpoints to them.

You sound like a nutcase with fringe viewpoints.

"The career open borders, pro-amnesty, limited war proponents. "

I've never seen anyone on FR advocate open borders or amnesty. And the only anti-war FReepers are the anti-illegals who oppose the war in Iraq.

A border guarded by 12,000 armed guards who arrest over one million illegal aliens annually, and routinely seize over 1 million pounds of marijuana and 15 - 20 tons of cocaine every year, is not an open border. We have not had an open border in almost a hundred years.

A guest worker program is not an amnesty. An amnesty is a pardon for criminal offenses. A guest worker program is an immigration program that grants temporary work visas to people who qualify for them.

The Antis cannot win an honest debate on substance so they have to change the meaning of words such a "open border","amnesty", "invasion", etc...

Our borders are not secure. Our borders are a joke. Only a small perecentage of the illegal aliens entering the United States are caught. What percentage of the illegal aliens that are actually caught entering U.S. territory simply try again within a short period of time from when they are caught and make it that time? I suspect a large percentage.
