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.

I remember about a year ago hearing the Democrats saying that they were going to stamp out the conservative movement then I also heard a rumor that they were going to infiltrate Conservative Websites and pretend to be a conservative while putting wedges there in order to divide. I wonder if any found their way to FR?

What else would call them, Einstein?

Drake, and Raleigh, and Columbus, and Cabot, and Pizzarro, and De Soto, et. al., were sent to the Western Hemisphere in order to find navigable sea routes, expedite trade with the far East, and subsequently, to trade with, and conquer while establishing permanent footholds in the Americas.

William Bradford & Co.-along with John Winthrop and subsequent settlers-came here because they wanted to establish a colony free from the constraints of the Church of England.

They didn't arrive on these shores with the expectation of creating a "Little England."

They didn't say, well gee, now that we've risked life and limb in order to escape our homeland let's re-establish that theocratic, Anglican craphole that we just fled.

That's the difference between the marchers and rioters yesterday and our antecedents.

No those are infractions not crimes....

Really? Then define "crime", and then apply it to those immigrants. Because crossing into this country illegally is only a misdemeanor.

You've even got a graphic.

Can't you tell when you're being mocked?

Yeah, you do; as much as you don't like them, they have a right to be confronted face to face.

If I saw somebody talking about you, I'd ping you. It's forum courtesy. Has been for years.

I understand. I guess I'm a reactionary, as I fall into the latter category on more than a few issues. I've seen your posts on this subject and I know we disagree. I would hope to try and convince you on which we have differing opinions. No name-calling or flames from me to you or any of the other Bushbots...:-)

He violated the Terms of Use in his very first post. The Mods don't seem to care.

Enjoy your flame war... I've got better things to be doing.

"Because crossing into this country illegally is only a misdemeanor."

That's because the RINOs and Communist Democrats are having their way.

The Conservatives and other America lovers are trying, and are being blocked by aforementioned Traitors and Criminal Illegals, to make it a felony, which it 100% should be.

ROFLMAO; I guess DC made a fool out of you, huh?

I'm trying to keep up with the thread. Did he ping the mods and I just missed it? Even if he did, I can't blame him. Coop is acting extremely nasty today.

I don't owe nasty in_your_face aggressive posters a ping

Then may I assume that you'll never be pinging those who frequently apply the terms "Kool-aid drinker" and "Bushbot?" Hmmmmmm? Because I'm quite certain I detected no hypocrisy in your post. [smiling sweetly]

Why? Coop violated the Terms of Use. That is what the Abuse button is supposed to be for. Why would that be humiliating for me?

Like I said, enjoy the flame war.
