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.

Yeah, one said today, "I have lurked for four years."

Shortly after that, he said he wanted Bush impeached.........LOL.

onyx: Apparently, it does. Have you seen ANY of them arrested? If so, PLEASE post the pics and articles here.

me: Not that it matters, since your comments are out of sync with what we were talking about, but here you go anyway:

As I said originally, the original post by your friend had little to do with anything.

Then you had to come along and pick a fight over that very same 'nothing'.

Which is not unusual for you.

They have all been whines and petty rants.

How did Clinton do a better job with immigration control? I don't recall it was even an issue. Well, he did make Elian Gonzales go back to Cuba.

400+ Haitians drowned in the middle of Hurricane Andrew.

And I was a lurker, for 2 years! That was back in the days when posting meant posting facts. I was intimated by the knowledge (plus I was in a master's program and didn't want to clog up my studies). Today, facts don't matter. And have you noticed the 'humor' is really lame? I used to have tears down my face, now, everyone is trying so hard to be funny, they aren't funny. But, here was a good old time freeper thread.

I was rotflol!

See this post

You have to start from the beginning. Hope you enjoy.

That's exactly what we have now. Are all of you people blithering idiots?

That's some intellectual debate style you've got there. No, it's not what we ave now. That you don't know it proves who the real idiots are. Now go listen to Savage.

Are you absolutely incapable of reading?

I just directly told you that on most issues I support President Bush. A few issues I disagree with him on, this one I vehemently disagree with him on to the point of anger at him ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE.

Let me plainly state ONCE AGAIN to see if you can get it through your thick head: I see President Bush as the greatest leader we have in the political lineup today or for the last 18 years. I'd just like him to be an even better leader.

I'm not "associating" with anyone on this thread, no matter what you think you have read in my posts. I made a statement of opinion in my first post, and my next substantive post was a report of direct observations within my little community, for which I have been called by various people on this thread (or the several others currently running on the same subject).; a liar, a 'noob' a communist, a welfare stater, a racist, an idiot, a Bush-bot and a Bush hater.

The only people that I have 'associated with' are people like you who have made disparaging remarks directly to me without backing them up with their own facts or pseudo-facts.

I also worked my butt off to design and share a graphic that people can use to get their political representative's attention on the Senate's Amnesty Bill.

If you agree with that Senate Bill, fine, tell me why we should offer amnesty to people here illegaly and offer them easy path to full citizenship and give the Democrats an instant 7-12 million vote advantage. Or ignore me; I won't be insulted by that. But don't just call me a 'noob' and think that having been a member here for a few years gives you a 'holier than thou' writ to insult people with impunity.

And one more thing: I was a full time Bush Campaign volunteer in September, October and early November,2004 working 6-18 hours a day on that because I believed in him so passionately. After the election was over, I went on to design, develop and host an exstensive website and internet forum for my County's Republican Party organization. I did that free of charge and put about 300 hours into that. I also donated over 15% of my (small)total income in 2004 to the Bush Campaign, several individual Republican candidates, the RNC, the State and local GOP organization.

So, maybe you ought to think twice about me being a liberal infiltrator, a Bush hater or associating with such people or calling for his impeachment just because you misinterpret my comments. What disagreements I have with President Bush are because I am somewhat more truly Conservative than he is overall, and that I wish he would be more forceful in getting his points across to the liberals. I still like and respect him despite those complaints....

I caught that thread and post #119 a day too late. It took me quite some time to wipe the tears from my eyes, as well.

Someone on another thread posted that Morris is now getting paid by Vincente Fox.

Not that it changes the importance of what you posted....just an aside.
