Nailed It!

This ping list is not author-specific for articles I'd like to share. Some for the perfect moral clarity, some for provocative thoughts; or simply interesting articles I'd hate to miss myself. (I don't have to agree with the author all 100% to feel the need to share an article.) I will try not to abuse the ping list and not to annoy you too much, but on some days there is more of the good stuff that is worthy of attention. You can see the list of articles I pinged to lately  on  my page.
You are welcome in or out, just freepmail me (and note which PING list you are talking about). Besides this one, I keep 2 separate PING lists for my favorite authors Victor Davis Hanson and Orson Scott Card.

I'm not sure that there is a single one of these principles that President Bush could sign onto with any honest intent. For starters, he is convinced that immigration policy is not for the benefit of all citizens but only for the benefit of his rich elite cronies and Chamber of Commerce campaign contributors. His adherence to the remaining principles goes done hill from there.

Yeah don't spend any time exposing the Democrats Hypocrisy on Iraq. Don't spend anytime attacking the Democrats. Spend every signal column attacking your own side. Really helps move the agenda. Just what is it that makes the Conservative Pundits so completely gutless about taking on the Democrat Spin machine?

"Since immigration policy can profoundly shape a country, it should be set by deliberate actions, not by accident or acquiescence, with careful consideration to ensure that it does not adversely affect the quality of life of American citizens and their communities."

This SHOULD be the meat of our debate. Illegal immigration should be a cut-and-dried approach of closing the border, building an Israeli-type security fence, and deporting the illegals. But the sleeper issue that few are talking about is the need to drastically change our LEGAL immigration: we should only be letting in very limited numbers of highly educated, well-trained people from countries that don't breed jihadists. This pool of immigrants would assure that they aren't coming here to go on welfare (whether from the beginning or after their entry-level menial work runs out), commit crime, or cut our throats.

We must END ILLEGAL immigration and drastically REFORM LEGAL immigration.

As far as I can tell, this Administration and the majority of the Senate and Congress don't support any of these ten points. At best, they are may be neutral on a few. Oh, some spokesman might give a speech here and there to sooth the murmuring peasantry out here in Flyover Country, but they really don't mean it.

Actions speak louder than words. The actions have been clear. It's "full speed ahead" for illegal immigration! Meanwhile, our country awash with illegals and is swirling down the toilet.

Co-Presidente Fox will not be happy about this and will let his little buddy (George Arbusto) know about it.

Outstanding post! He gets it, as illustrated by "The purpose of U.S. immigration policy is to benefit the citizens of the United States." Amen!
