PING!
I love exposing our government's shenanigans!
She's a bureaucrat and that's all she needs to be. I suspect she's probably going to be good, simply because I have seen so many people here on FR trashing her right from the start. Indicates to me that the trolls are out and active, stirring up GOP ire by innuendo, so she must be perceived as possibly a sound choice.
This is, *ahem*, a less than optimal nomination.
But it is consistent with W's track record on illegal immigration.
Malkin is right. Again.
Should've appointed Malkin.
I'd support her if I got a convincing commitment to ENFORCE OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS... prolly I'll have to settle for an unconvincing one from Hitlary.
Owl_Eagle(If what I just wrote makes you sad or angry,
President Bush could write a poem that stirred souls, grow food that satiated world hunger, and personally cured cancer and he'd still get "criticized" by the ideological know-nothings in the news media.
It grows old. If this position was "so" important, then why didn't Malkin and others first suggest someone for this position?
The truth is that she and others like her just criticize, they have no proactive, positive policy suggestions and personnel recommendations. She probably just heard about this job opening this week, anyway.
No, I'm afraid that wouldn't do.
The statements that Voinavitch made to Myers actually happened. But as the WaPo article points out, and NewsMax leaves out, Voinavitch met with Chertoff after the hearing and now supports Myers.
hhhlii i
Is anything he does not criticized? Even by many on this forum?
Julie Myers is Julie Myers... she will ONLY reflect and carry out what the ADMINISTRATION wants to happen in the area of "illegal immigration".
She's young, nice looking, and she's General Meyer's daughter. Turn her loose.. let's see what she can do.
Anything would be an inprovement.

Minutemen host Chicago summit on national security and illegal immigration
The Chicago Minuteman Project will host the America First: Summit on National Security on Saturday, October 15, 2005 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Minorities and immigrants are among the leaders who will speak at the summit held at the Christian Liberty Academy, 502 W. Euclid Ave., in Arlington Heights, IL.
Co-founders of the Chicago Minuteman Project, Rosanna Pulido and Rick Bieseda, were among the original group of Minutemen to patrol the Arizona border in April, 2005. They were the first to establish a Minuteman group in a non-border state where the emphasis is on holding employers and politicians accountable for obeying immigration laws.
Indicative of the multi-ethnic mix of speakers, Rosanna Pulido is an American of Mexican descent. Her background includes working on the Alan Keyes Campaign as his 2nd Amendment coordinator. She was the organizer for Rally for America March 22, 2003 in Chicago.
Rick Bieseda, served in Vietnam as a Marine and hosts the weekly talk show Perspectives on Our Heritage on WJJG 1530 AM. He is the author of The Angry White Male and the Horse he Rode in On and writes columns for the Federal Observer.
Speaker Yeh Ling-Ling is a naturalized American citizen who was born in Vietnam to Chinese parents. Prior to founding Diversity Alliance for a Sustainable America, she spent 10 years working for immigration law firms.
Carl Two Feathers Whitaker of the Tennessee Volunteer Minutemen, is of American Indian descent. He is running for Governor of Tennessee.
Descended from slaves and American Indians, Terry Anderson bills himself as the Prisoner of South Central on his all-immigration radio talk show on KRLA in Los Angeles.
Long before the Governors of NM and AZ declared states of emergency due to problems caused by illegal aliens, County Commissioner Robert Vasquez, a Hispanic American, sought to declare Canyon County, Idaho a disaster area due to strains caused by illegal aliens. He is now running for Congress.
These multi-ethnic speakers have one thing in common. They are Americans first. They will address the numerous ways illegal immigration threatens our national security.
