Did you see LA Mayor Antonio Villargosa on TV a while ago stirring up the illegal juvenile mobs into a frenzy again?

He's a traitor to the American citizens and should be recalled immediately. Noone who supports and has connections to the commies, La Raza and MEChA should hold any kind of office in CA, (or any other State for that matter).

I would like to know how much of Soros money was contributed to his winning the election, and I'd also like to know how many of those winning votes were cast by illegals too.

I realize I may very well get banned for expressing my disagreement with the President. If that is the case....

Bye.

those workers will tend to do what their employers want. many employers do not want guest workers. an illegal who becomes a guest worker, and goes to work at Walmart - will be replaced in the system by another illegal coming across the border to fill the day labor job the "convert" just gave up.

absent strong employer sanctions and a rock solid border, you cannot break this cycle. the market forces are too strong, and the pools of people who would willingly come here, is effectively infinite.

I wish we could get some honest debate on this point, but everything is filled with cries of "racism".

I'm no big fan of President Bush, but your critism is so one-dimensional that it should not be taken seriously.

I started a point by point rebuttal (in some cases agreeing with your sentiment but not your rationale), but on reaching your "draft dodger" bullet point, decided you are a troll.

Who can challenge Graham on this? Will there be a good primary opponent next time out? He's done it twice this week. High tariffs and unlimited illegal immigration. He's supposed to vote on behalf of his constituents, not the corporations in his stock portfolio.

It's so typical of a certain class of Southerner, and their New England Enablers, to favor legislation that encourages the employment of people at a less than living wage.

This used to be called slavery ~ so it's not surprising to see the South Carolina senator favoring it, and the Texas President supporting it, and the Arizona cotton plantation senator writing in the critical phrases, and the man representing the big land interests in Nebrasks falling all overhimself to get this POS onto the floor.

You're scraping the bottom of the barrel, pal.

But, that's home to you, it seems.

"All Americans wanted fairness and they got it this evening," said Sen. Edward M. Kennedy"

If that were true, Senator Kennedy you'd be doing life for leaving the scene of an accident and causing the death of young woman.


Mary Jo could not be reached for a response to the Senator's inanity.

" Four your benefit, I will flat out tell what I dislike about this President. "
If you are going to criticize President Bush for his poor speaking ability;for God sakes can't you use the proper spelling/usage of the word FOR?
It's "for your benefit".

I think there may be reverberations in South Carolina shortly.

That was very mean spirited of you. Ted Kennedy did for America what he did for Mary Jo.

I'm in Manhattan and Brownback is toast out here among the serious conservatives and volunteers.

The Young Republicans on campus are also frothing over this issue...

I, along with many of my students, have busted our butts to help him out.
But if this is the best he can do it is time for him to go....we'll have to wait a while though.

I'm no lover of Frist, but at least he is attempting to make the right noises, I would like to encourage others who are so lead to do the same.

My point ws that Frist's noises are designed to confuse. He is not a plain talker, and he is not fully forthcoming with his position on important issues.

What R that is running is pro-border control and truly anti-amensty? IF I can stand him, I will follow him.

"Amnesty" is not all that clear cut of a notion - there are a wide range of possible directions and actions. I focus more on the executive that the Congress in this regard, because I think no matter what the law says, enforcement is where the difference will be made. And I tend to avoid single issue approaches when evaluating candidates.

That being said, I am totally disgusted with our Federal government. They are WAY too big for their britches.
