Boehner hints a back down on 'amnesty'
The Washington Times ^ | March 29, 2006 | Charles hurt

Posted on 03/29/2006 7:15:28 AM PST by surely_you_jest

House Majority Leader John A. Boehner refused yesterday to rule out compromising with the Senate to expand the House border security bill to include a guest-worker program or provisions that opponents call "amnesty." "Let's wait and see what the Senate can produce," he told reporters yesterday when asked whether House Republicans would reject the Senate Judiciary Committee's proposal to allow the estimated 12 million illegal aliens now in the U.S. to seek citizenship after paying a fine.

Are you claiming that Coop is making up your posting history? If so, we'll launch an investigation. However, should we find it to be an actual post of yours, we'll have little choice but to take action. Your call, Don King.

It's "white hot" as they say and Bush has been a major major disappointment ...

Twisting.....

How do you figure?

I gave you a highly credible source, as requested.

And the experience of those who have seen with their own eyes what is happening all across the country bears out their numbers, not the numbers of 'the Pew Hispanic Center'...

I forgot about my power! I haven't used it yet...lol.
DG wasn't here earlier, when we were bestowed our power! I was sort of being serious with him about the 'real' mods.

Now, don't cross me again, Coop!

If there is any silver lining here, this is it. Thousands upon thousands of illegal immigrants on our soil, proclaiming their allegiance to a foreign power and claiming that they are the rightful heirs to our land. If that doesn't wake people up, nothing will.

Where did you get this....Asked whether they would favor "allowing illegal immigrants already working in the United States to register as guest workers for a fixed period of time, so that the government could keep track of them,
" 73% said they "favor";
23% said "oppose";
3% don't know.

This is dated 2006. # 89 percent of Americans think illegal immigration into the U.S. is a problem
(30% “extremely serious,”
33% ”very serious,”
and 26% “somewhat serious.”

(Time Magazine poll of 1,002 adults taken January 24-26, 2006)
# 57% said they "favor stopping illegal immigrants from entering the United States by taking whatever steps are necessary to guard the border with Mexico, including using US military forces"
(vs. 39% opposed).

"I'm about convinced it will take a cataclysm to wake up America....millions dead and people very afraid."

I think its time that the video of the 9/11 attacks that we have thusfar been protected from be shown to us.

Obviously people need to see the victims jumping from the buildings and landing on the sidewalk, only because they are obviously too stupid to get the picture otherwise.

A leaker of any kind would suit me fine.

Could well be.

Then the American people will demand a mine field a mile deep.

And it will be the fault of the fuzzy-minded, bleeding-heart PC idiots who just can't stand to do the right thing now.

average bus holds about 50 folks maybe

that's 400,000 buses

buy Bluebird today..lol

actually, folks are deported all the time

by air (no need for an agent to accompany) after a stint at an INS joint....

when I grew up, they deported illegals routinely...now they won't even arrest them unless it's a serious felony

Late to the thread, but I have some important news I picked up on O'Reilly. (People can watch the repeat to verify what I am saying.)

Dick Morris has finally earned his money on Fox, as far as I am concerned. He explained the importance of the Mexican elections in this.

The Mexican presidential election is July 2. The candidate most favored to win is NOT from Fox's party, but the guy who is the mayor of Mexico City and is pretty close to being a communist, according to Morris. He is being aided by Chavez of Venezuela.

What's at stake is the OIL that we buy from Mexico. If this guy wins, we are going to be SOL on buying oil from Mexico (whose oil is controlled by the state and not privately owned). This will hurt our economy, especially with Iran refusing to sell to us as well, and Iraq's supply not up to snuff and under constant danger from terorism.

Morris says that the guest worker program that Bush favors is so that we can control our borders without alienating the Mexican people and ensuring this communist's election.

So, to all of the people who are frothing at the mouth about the immigration law and the guest worker program, PLEASE THINK AND UNDERSTAND CONSEQUENCES.

Morris made a lot of sense. I hope people will watch the replay.

Has EV acknowledged that he misled us with that pic of the TRUANT school kids?

I am still lookinng for pictorial evidence of illegals being arrested for angry protests.

Frankly, I thought that 9/11 would have been enough to strike a death blow to political correctness in this country. I guess that was a pretty naive notion. PC is still as strong as ever and ready to rear its ugly head in any discussion about borders or national security.
