If I could draw cartoons, I'd draw Richardson and Napolitano chasing an illegal that is waving a flag with dollar signs on it. They aren't doing anything but chasing money with their emergency declarations.
In this case, however, its all about perception. President Bush is absolutely disgraceful on this issue, and the public sees that. I mean, for God sakes, he set up a task force made up of business interests to push an amnesty plan! He might as well just come out and say what critics of the Party have been saying for years; The Republican Party is driven by business interests. This is foolishness.
All it takes is for a small percentage of independent voters to fall for the Democrats turnaround on this issue for the GOP to suffer. Do not underestimate how angry the conservative base is, either. There are a good number of us who will vote for a third party in 06 and 08 if Bush doesn't get his act together. And before anybody comes on and says that all I am doing is helping Hillary get to office by voting third party, let me make this clear right now, I don't care so save your breath. I am going to support, as I believe and hope others will, the candidates that I agree with and that share my views.
Precisely. They aren't asking for help in stemming the tide of illegals, but for money to absorb the cost of illegals.
I wonder how much Bush will have to borrow from China to pay off this bill? Now that we owe billions to rebuild the South, one would think he'd take pity on the poor American citizens and stop the criminals coming into America, who are sucking us dry. But no, I would imagine that Bush is so insulated by his handlers he doesn't even know any Mexicans are in America now.
Bush had better wake up! This country is headed for bankruptcy. We can't continue to pay for the world's problems, as well as our own, with the middle class being forced into low paying jobs by the illegals. Doesn't anybody in the Bush administration know what is going on? Doesn't any Republican care? I know this is stretching it a lot, but doesn't any Democrat care?
If I could draw cartoons I would draw the Statue of Liberty with a horde of illegals tunneling under her. At the head of the line would be Bush, Clinton, the ACLU and the myriad of others who want open borders passing out picks and shovels. The tunnel would be about 3/4 of the way through about to topple the idea of Liberty here in the United States.
..and their reelections
...with their emergency declarations.
You're totally correct on that!
