Penchant for coming unhinged? As compared to McCain? I'll take the former teacher over the hacks every time.
Mike in Iraq: "Or any books that he or Buchanan will write. Don Quixote is alive and well..."
Thanks Mike who's no longer in Iraq. You've bought into the sock-puppet thing; noted. I met a guy who had no strings attached and continued to survive despite his Party cutting him off. He does this because he believes in what he's doing over what he's told. Soldiers who never question orders are fodder, Mike. So glad you escaped having to do so and thank you for your service.
Calrighty: Another misconception is illegals are only doing the work Americans are unwilling to do. Every time Bush utters this LIE I wanna puke! Tell that to the 250,000 white/black/brown middle class American construction workers who lost their family livelihood to illegals.
Truth be told the illegals have stolen all the "starter jobs" that youth of all races used to begin with. If any young person dares to attempt to get those jobs now they'll find an entrenched cadre of illegals there willing to sabotage and ruin his or her efforts as a matter of course, SOP. Another reason to kick the whole bunch out if we can shut their equally corrupt defenders up (and bring them up on long-earned charges).
Constantine XIII: The Conservative Party is the group that the Republicans should fear, as all true Conservatives are far better represented by them than a party that has betrayed Lincoln, Eisenhower and Reagan. It's true...it's damn true. Neocons are Liberals in disguise.
Barney Gumble: Did you know that many hispanics who come legally aren't exactly thrilled with illegal immigration either?! Do you honestly think a Hispanic that came legally, dealt with all the red tape, is going to vote for you because you turn a blind eye to illegal immigration? Do you think that Hispanic who now pays taxes, is going to love dolling out money for illegal healthcare and such? Why are Republicans heads in the sand over illegal immigration? Also a note: illegals can't (or shouldn't) vote anyway. So why are you pandering to a crowd that can't vote for you.
Barney just pointed at blatent corruption at the expense of our future. Anyone care to defend it?
Danabbit: The future is always yet to be written. You think long and hard but don't seem to factor positive trends. Humans have to hope or just suicide. Dagnabbit.
who_would_fardels_bear: Unlike the Democrat Platform, the Republican's will not support fisting. LOL!
Mulch: Either way, Tancredo will be wielding quite a bit of power over the election. People who want illegals deported, and thats about 99% of Americans, will vote for whoever Tancredo supports.
constipation party: 7beuties: True a few years ago, now people are angry.
Taxed2Death: Seeing that the CFR spells our assurred doom - too right. Only fools sign a suicide pact.
While I and most evryone else here agree with you we have to entertain the factions who still believe that we still trust this administration's goals. Don't carp about lowered wages, outsourced manufacturing and sweet deals for Communist countries. Look the other way while Americans of lesser skills are systematically displaced by illegal aliens for half the cost, unmindingly weakening the very infrastructure of our formerly proud nation.
I call out this batch of Neo-Conservative Republicans as outright traitors seeking to sell out any hope of their progeny's future success by squandering all available capital for their short-term enrichment. I say these people are scum who should be outed and strung up for their organized pillaging in the name of Conservatism. They have damaged the Republican name beyond redemption...we must insure that the general public knows that these criminals have nothing to do with Conservatives. This is why I say all true Conservatives need to back the Constitution Party now. The current Republican Party has indulged in so much wrong-doing that those of us who still believe in a God have to let them go. They didn't have to ape the Democrats nor sell out their base...yet they chose that path.
And despite Tancredo's support from Buchanon's sister one has to note that she supports Tom's agenda far more than her brother's. That's clean to me.
"America, **** Yeah!"
BTTT!!
Tancredo's stances aren't the problem, nor should they be, nor have they been.
Tancredo THE CANDIDATE is the problem. He just is NOT a strong candidate at all. He has not been a Governor, he does not even represent an entire state.
Outside of FR, less than 1% of the electorate has even heard of him.
the man has big time visibility problems, he has some comments that will be plastered ALL OVER THE PLACE if he gets the nomination.
Too much baggage.
Very good.
