Dontcha just love it that Hillary keeps stepping in it everytime she opens her mouth?

Yes, I do. I can't wait for her to be under the harsh lights of national attention in '08. The MSM will smooth her path as much as possible, but many more Americans will be watching and listening to her, and there's only so much the MSM can do to distort what they're seeing and hearing.

What was it Groucho said? "Who are you going to believe, me or your own eyes?"

She was pandering for the teachers union vote a couple weeks ago when she attacked school vouchers.

Now its time to pander to the vast collection of NYC illegal immigrants and south american voters.

She's parroting what Bush said yesterday, amnesty (I know he didn't actually use the word), for illegals. Both parties are pandering for the illegal vote and it's shameful to watch.

This is great. She is killing her '08 chances. The next President is going to be the canidate who stands up and says they are going to secure our borders and be tough on illegal aliens.

"Clinton renewed her pledge to oppose a bill passed in December by the House that would make unlawful presence in the United States _ currently a civil offense _ a felony."

Thats the only part of the bill that means anything at all to Hildabeast Clowntoon...Felony!

If they are felons they can't vote in most areas, she needs the felon vote to get RATS elected.

IMO we should start beating the libs at their game - deciding what the terms are that are to be used to describe things. In this case illegal aliens. They are not undocumented immigrants. They are criminals that are invading our country.

If every single republican used the term "illegal aliens", and refused to use or accept the use of "undocumented immigrant", that alone would help shape the debate. Everytime a leftie says it, respond with illegal alien in some fashion.

Invoking Biblical themes, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton......."

The more I think about it, the more I'd vote anyone BUT Hillary.

This woman would scam Jesus Christ in person if it served her purpose.

In this case she is.

Especially from OUR side where you expect principle and law enforcement.

What we are talking about here is Hispanic Vote 2008.

We are also talking about a huge block of the DNC base, and the exploitive economy of the City of New York (and Philly, and Chicago, and others.)

As an OTR (all states) Truck driver I have seen it all. Brick buildings meant to be office building in NYC gutted out to make a 'factory.' You can hardly get an 18-wheeler in the parking lot, because it was built years ago as.... a parking lot (for cars.) Yet they have installed a 'dock' and when you go inside the place is crawling with Hispanics. And let me just tell you, I like these people and as a Christian I see them as souls to be saved, but the way they are being exploited in this country is a shame. They are vastly underpaid and they will never complain because they can't speak good English, they are here illegally and don't want to be caught, and they are just glad to have some kind of job.

So, I try to think of the compassion of Christ, but is it compassionate to make people work in this country for less than minimum wage?

Example... the company above, was in the Bronx. They import plastic housings and motors for fans from China. They arrive in Philly and are shipped up there. They are assembled by Hispanics making next to nothing, and the assembled products are sent to Family Dollar, or Dollar General.

Another example: Bose Radios. Those 'outstanding sound' radios are assembled, among other places, in Yuma, Arizona. Why Yuma, where it is over 100 degrees in the shade? A steady workforce of illegals.

Newspaper in South Carolina claimed a week ago that there are 55,000 illegals in that state, alone, and that it is a premier target for Hispanics because local factories are well known for not checking nationality of potential employees.

Go to your local bus station, at any time of day, and you will see them. Small groups of Hispanic men. They wear sport caps (all different NFL teams.... for some reason it seems funny... how can they all support a different team? But they aren't supporters and they don't speak much if any English. Try asking one of them, even in Spanish, about the "Miami Dolphins" like who is the Quarterback this year? They can't tell you. They think the caps will make them look more like nationals.) You will see alot of these groups. As a truck driver I have to take a bus occasionally for various reasons. Everytime, the bus is 90% full of Hispanics. Thats how many of them are moving throughout the country 24 hours a day.

We need to help these people in Mexico so they can get productive jobs. A recent article I read said Mexicans work for around $1.00 per hour. They naturally want to come here where they can make much more.

Bottom line... if you sent these people home and built the wall on the southern border, NYC would suffer greatly. True, there are still alot of Puerto Ricans and Dominican Republic peoples arriving by thousands to be exploited by NYC, but still, the Mexicans are the largest part of those factory workers IMHO.

"We need to help these people in Mexico so they can get productive jobs."

Why do "we" need to help them? They have a president, and a country. Why is it always up to the good ol USA to help the world. What about the Latin countries, why do they get a pass? Why don't they help. Why don't we just cut our the middle man (Vicente), and just annex the damn country? What we need to do is make able-bodied Americans get off the dole and earn their keep. We have our own problems, we can't solve Vicente's problems too.

I wanna see queen Hillary out in Jimmy Carter's field picking peanuts with the illegals. Ya know, bonding with voters. Then again, the EPA might ID her as an effluent and fine Mr. Peanutman.

Ring up the Army Corps of Engineers. There's a blockage needin' removal.

Sorry, sir. All the battleships been retired. Will an airstrike work?
