Depends on how hard the President leans on 'em. President Bush can be mighty persuasive...
I agree great Carnack. Without a paddle.
The incumbents don't believe we'll turn it back over to the rats rather than get sold down the river by our own party. It's not surprising, because they're very arrogant and they aren't very smart. But it's fun to see the mighty take a tumble, and they're going against the will of about 75% of the murricin pipple. Something is going to give.
People have to elect better republicans, my house rep is fine on this issue. know their stand DONT vote for weasels.
yep
Kennedy told the committee the proposal was not an amnesty. People seeking legal status would have to pay a $2,000 fine, apply for a six-year temporary status, have a job, pay taxes, learn English and show an understanding of U.S. government.
Their suppose to do that now! I see no change. I'm about ready to build a wall around Texas!
WRONG: ITS:
SCAMNESTY AND SHAMNESTY
The mexis call it amnesty. we did it before we will do it again.
Safety nets are socialism, not capitalism.
Food stamps, workers' comp, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, free emergency medical care, welfare payments, rent subsidies, etc, are socialist scams.
The faster the scams go bankrupt, the better.
I understand that most people like their socialist piece of the pie, so I'm in the minority.
Time for me to go pick up a bottle Jack. This is really getting scary.
The ONLY good thing I can see is this:
If illegals are pressured to become citizens, they don't want that! They DO NOT want to become Americans.
If they are told, Become a citizen NOW or leave this country tonight, good. Also, if a stipulation is that when you become a citizen you cannot go back to country of origin for 10 years, can wire only a maximum of $500 back to country of origin, AND we get our fence ALL ALONG the border. Then, fine! Go, with that.
We cannot concede any kind of amnesty without getting our BORDER FENCE! Then, we are worse than screwed, we are shameful. And, by the way, is part of the plan to take our current laws --- which have been broken by 20+ million illegals -- off the books?
And, I say absolutely NO to any kind of temporary guest worker program, creating quasi-legal non citizenship: it's a crock. Okay, I'm done being crazy and dreaming.
"Depends on how hard the President leans on 'em. President Bush can be mighty persuasive..."
Yeah, when his poll numbers weren't in the mid 30's/lower 40's. Hopefully congress will thumb there nose at him like they did on the port deal.
Yeah, just like on the ports. Face it Ray, the thrill is gone.
Yeah, and I need a million dollars and bottomless mug of beer. Unfortunately, "viable" and "third-party" don't work together. I think we will have to settle for a a non-viable third-party of the protest vote, give the election to your enemies variety. Sometimes you can only win by losing.
I also read how Rome disintegrated as well. What is your point?
Just another day at the office for just another TRAITOR!!!
CRUISING DOWN THE RIVER
Jack Smith
Cruising down the river on a Sunday afternoon
With one you love, the sun above
Waiting for the moon.
An old accordion playing a sentimental tune
Cruising down the river on a Sunday afternoon.
The birds above all sing of love
A gentle, sweet refrain.
The winds around all make a sound
Like softly falling rain.
The two of us together
We'll plan our honeymoon
Cruising down the river on a Sunday afternoon.
Every last RINO who votes for Kennedy-McCain needs to be defeated if they are up for re-election in November. They are no help to us anyway.
