Sen. Hutchison (R-TX) avoids Sean on in-state tuition for ILLEGALs (FNC: Hannity & Colmes)
Fox News Channel - Hannity & Colmes ^ | 8-24-05 | DTogo

Posted on 08/24/2005 8:03:37 PM PDT by DTogo

While discussing ILLEGA immigration and replaying a clip of Sean at the border, Sean then asked guest Sen. Hutchison (R-TX), regardless of beefing up border security, if granting in-state tuition for ILLEGAL immigrants wasn't rewarding bad behaviour to people who have broken the law. Does the Senator think it's wrong?

She completely dodged the question by responding "I can understand how difficult it would be to explain this to parents who want their kids to go to school in Texas" and how these children (of ILLEGAL aliens) also want to receive an education, blah, blah, blah

But she said she's planning to introduce legislation to increase border patrol agents and equipment, blah, blah, blah

Kay Bailey Hutchison is a textbook RINO woman. She's hawkish on armed forces when need be, but on "women's" issues she's utterly squishy.

And by "women's issues," I mean those that people feel about rather than thinking about. She's a great little liberal on babies and education and being nice to everyone.

I also noted the praise from both Hutchinson and Colmes on that point that Chertoff had called for more lawyers and judges to deal with illegal aliens. That's the solution - more lawyers to protect the borders.

I usually contact John Cornyn's office...I have gotten replys from his office that couldn't be strictly form letters...

but, what I do when I really want them to know how I feel, is call their Washington offices when they are in session. I am sure their poor receptionists will let them know if they have a lot of callers on one subject...

is this what washington does to ppl?

Yep. When she says, "it's hard to explain to hard working parents", she means it.

After all, most of the hard working AMERICAN TAXPAYERS don't have the kind of pension and retirement set up that Kay and her buddies have. It's really alot of pressure to consider giving up all of those goodies.

Easier to tow the RNC or DNC line and let us serfs suck it up.

With another about twenty meters away running the same distance with razor wire in between and on top.

Electronic monitors and Constantin UAV patrols, with blimps watching over them.

And only four authorized one for every two states and all removed from towns.

"She, like so many in Washington don't see a problem."

She sees a problem. She just won't acknowledge a problem.

I saw this sorry exchange tonight. Absolutely disgusting!!

I saw it. It was like being in Crazytown. Listening to her claim that it's past time to talk, we need action even strategic fence placement, then talk about the children of hard working Illegals. It's nuts, but I'm sure we will hear more of the exact same crap soon.

I did hear her say that she was FOR FENCES!!! LOL

The "fence" thing will be where politicians run to to make it look like they want to do something about the invasion.

That being said, the congressman Mr.King, who has proposed the fence plan that has received some mention, seems credible because he seems to understand that the fence is worthless if we don't enforce sovereignty within the fences.

Although KBH no longer responses to my letters and email I have to admit she did handle an immigration problem for me. I had a friend (actually a nurse recruiter working with me) that was visiting the US on a visa waiver permit. She's a Australian resident residing in Tasmania. Two days before her scheduled departure (legal departure I might add, plane ticket in hand) she was involved in an accident and hospitalized. Dislocated shoulder, broken arm and multiple cuts and bruises...I think that justified a four day stay in the hospital. (The accident was caused by an illegal alien throwing a beer bottle at her while she was riding a bike.He was arrested and later released.) She requested that I contract INS to explain the situation. I did so without any positive results. I contacted KBH's office and got the usual political BS...yada, yada, yada, we can't do anything. Much to our surprise upon her discharge from the hospital she was arrested by INS for "over staying" her visa waiver (2 days) and was taken to a detention facility in El Paso, TX where she stayed for 7 weeks. So...the taxpayers got to pay for a 7 week detention for someone more than willing to board a plane and go home at her own expense. To KWB the only thing I can say is "Screw You".

But since the types of job the illegals are taking are low wage, we must insure that in the future, they can strive to take higher level positions from those Americans who couldn't, by virtue of thier citizenship status, afford to go to college

I hope they can come up with better material than that. Like I said, now that the feds are on the case, I'm sure we're in for much more of the same topsy-turvy pretzel logic.

So, is Sen. Hutchison (R-TX) another Beltway elitist politician

Sure looks like it, don't it? Asa Hutchins was doing the same dance on illegals tonight. I guess Karl Rove is not getting the message.

I heard a blip that the estimated cost for a wall, not a fence, on the southern border is about $680 million.

That would buy a lot of concertina wire.

We are at war, yaknow.

For the life of me I don't understand some of our GOP/ Conservative lawmakers in this state. If they would just listen to average person down here, they would hear the WHOLE state wants something done about illegal immigration and that includes the majority of Hispanics. Hispanics know that they are straining our schools, hospitals, and other services and they are upset because they pay taxes too. They see the dangers with these criminal gangs and the potential of terrorists sneaking across the river. Our GOP lawmakers need to go listen to the real people down here and not be afraid of LULAC, American GI Forum, LaRaza Unida, United Farmworkers, and liberal editorial boards that are going to call them racist for being Republicans and waking up in the morning.

Get with the program Texas GOP!
