Hill conservatives warn Bush of amnesty anger
THE WASHINGTON TIMES ^ | March 31, 2006 | Charles Hurt

House conservatives yesterday issued a dire warning to President Bush and Republican leadership that they will pay a devastating political price if they proceed with a guest-worker program or anything resembling amnesty for illegal aliens before securing the borders and enforcing existing immigration laws.

"They will remember in November," Rep. J.D. Hayworth, Arizona Republican, said of voters nationwide. "And many of those who have stood with our Republican majority in the last decade are not only angry, many of them plan to be absent from the polls" this year when the entire House and one-third of the Senate is up for re-election.

Dubya and his staff all know that. Does that make him change?

Of course not, it's his desire to see these folks in those positions or he'd change his policy.

Remember, he is supposed to work for us.

And let's back up to 9-11.

If this party had any credibility, someone in the LEO biz would have contacted them and warned them about the Gorelick Wall.

Apparently the Republicans don't impress the folks who we've given the responsibility of protecting us.

And did ya know the US Attorney who handled the Sandy Berger case got kicked up to a federal judgeship?

Like General Patton said "Ain't a dimes worth of difference between the parties".

Lets just say that I went through Katrina, and everyone here LOVES President Bush. We would have been lost without him!

I have to go to work now, but let me just respond to this...

"It will help explain the lousy campaign his daddy ran. And yes I voted for him, even sent a small stack of Benjamin's to the Swift Boat guys, at the time I was opening a new business and money was tight. So what do I get?"

His dad was not the man GW is. I did support him though his heart was not in it. I also sent the Swifties $1500.00.

We both got LOWER TAXES, momentum on rolling back ABORTION, a cleansing of the Oval Office... along with regained respect for America, the taliban routed, Saddam captured... uday and kusay dead, NO attacks on American Soil after 9/11, Increased Military Might and speed, The GREATEST ECONOMY in America's history, and a handful of missteps that History will forget.

Gotta run to work, Sorry.

LLS

I would guess you are too young to remember the presidents who preceded him. It wouldn't be such a puzzle to you if you did.

Yeah, I was in pre-school when Reagan was elected. I remember my parents were very excited because they were very dissatisfied with Carter. Having subsequently learned about Carter and previous presidents in history class, I know they had good reason to be.

I suppose it is human nature to put a good man, who changed a lot for the better, up on a pedestal. It isn't very constructive, though.

My previous contentions still hold sway America! Until this country is willing to throw off "PARTY" labels and begin to evaluate politicians on Conservative merits; the hoped for changes we all seek so desparately will never come. In the mean time it is time to start scheduling Impeachments for those who still refuse to fall in line and do the will of the people who elected them, starting at the very top and going downward. The ISSUES are clear and need to be acted upon. Quit whyning and get busy doing the people's business!

No more excuses, no more waffeling you have been warned the People's patience has been exhaused! America for legal Americans!

I wonder what President Reagan would have to say to all those Freepers that are having such a great time blasting President Bush, especially while we are at war.

The "war" is over. Saddam was toppled, the Taliban driven out. Afghanistan and Iraq have an elected government (remember all those purple fingers). The combat in each of those countries are "internal affairs".

How long is Bush going to hide behind the "We are at war" shtick? The war that really exists is one between Islam and other religions/cultures and that is global and will be with us for generations, therefore it ceases to be a defense for ineptitude in other areas of governing nor should provide immunity from criticism for lack of ability.

You want to use the "we are at war" excuse as a defense, why not add "war of drugs", "war on crime", "war on poverty" all of which we're still fighting and all of which contribute to the tearing down of our nation's fiber.

Bush is a lightweight and no amount of "shock and awe" will change that.

You know, I've been thinking about this, and maybe there is a good part to it.

Imagine, if you will, all sorts of wonderful things are given to these illegal aliens ( what was, for a long time, the proper term )--able to bank, buy houses, skirt taxes, without paying the price of meddling government( which uses 'citizenship' as the guise to do so ).
Now, imagine, the US suddenly loosing millions of 'citizens' off of the tax rolls, although the the population of the US has not decreased. Now, rhetorically, I ask: Where did all those former 'citizens' go?

Or, in other words, maybe it is time to use a little political jiujitsu and use the Federal government's non-representative nature against itself. Think about it.

Don't flatter yourself, pal.

You're a garden-variety Bush basher. They come and they go.

Based on Reagan's indisputable love for America, I think he would have been utterly disgusted with Bush and his elitist internationalist cronies. My best guess is that he would run against the party establishment, as he did earlier in his career, if he were able to do so.

Good ....they are talkling about one here in Nashville

the illegals had their spanish language networks and radio drumming them up ....organized by leftist and reconquista groups (supported by a few rather loud freepers obviously)

we do not have that luxury even though a distinct majority of citizens are with us

I hope the MECHA traitors keep it up....they help us more than anything

Do you realize just how stupid your post is? Are you really saying that our President is working for Mexico and not supporting the Constitution? Please, help the country, don`t have kids.

"stupid" -- "don't have kids" -- that really furthers your argument, or did you have one?
