Whatever spiffy, the point still remains the same, tancredo used(according to his rhetoric) impure, Un-American labor to make a home theater in his basement. Your patently false allegation that Tancredo knowingly and intentionally allowed illegal aliens to work in his home is libelous. The only point you're it serves to make is that you are a moron.

Promises, promises, Johnny Strangelove. Probably as good as the promises you made to first wife.

I'm going to campaign real hard to "Throw the Bums Out" this fall. Maybe we can put the fear of God (and the voters) back into our elected officials if they see their incumbent buddies become unemployed in one election. Right now, I think it's the only chance we have as Americans to get control of OUR government back into OUR hands.

McCain responded by saying immigrants were taking jobs nobody else wanted. He offered anybody in the crowd $50 an hour to pick lettuce in Arizona. It's amazing someone so disconnected from reality got elected to anything, let alone Senate.
McInsane bump.

McCain responded by saying immigrants were taking jobs nobody else wanted.So perhaps McCain would have his illegal immigrants take ONLY the jobs that "nobody else wanted." Then it would be illegal for them to work construction, cook, move up in the job, etc. Would that be OK?
To: Dane
BTW, you do know that there are 17,000 undocumented(illegal) aliens serving in our Armed Forces. This has always been the law. And where do you get the undocumented crap from?? As a vet I can tell you've just about step on may last nerve.

His "ability to tap dance without music." In fact, there is music from throughout the country; he's just deaf to it.

Good grief, I'll relocate my children to Arizona when and if they pay $15/hour. Good heavens! We'd all starve if it cost that much to harvest lettuce. The sky is falling! We're doomed!

$50/hr. for picking lettuce? If it weren't for child labor laws, I even know children who would take that offer. Just because McCain is too much of a wimp to put in a hard day's work doesn't mean that others can't.

Your patently false allegation that Tancredo knowingly and intentionally allowed illegal aliens to work in his home is libelous Well of course Esquire, Congressmen tancredo, didn't intetnionally or knowingly hire illegal aliens to refininsh his basement(he hired the contractor). There has been enough parsing by the tancredo fans on FR that would make hillary blush, my point is that it has been documented in the media that tom tancredo's home theater in his basement was mostly built by people with first names such as Jose, and all I am saying is if that Mr. tancredo were true to his political rhetoric he would invite the TV cameras he loves(ala mccain, hows that for irony) and with a sledgehammer destroy the work done by "illegal" labor.

How about a government job??
I recently visited the town of Sonito AZ where there is a large Border Patrol base. There was a "Help Wanted" sign on the chain link fence surrounding the place.
I bet they pay in excess of $15.00 per hour.

"How DARE he tell American men they can't work as hard as a bunch of illegal aliens!!! This infuriates me! Maybe HE couldn't handle hard labor, but he's just an elite senator - not good for much but photo-ops and cocktail parties."
Applause! Besides construction workers, there are millions of Americans who do back breaking labor every day, but because they aren't in a field, it cannot be considered working hard for their money?
Mr. McCain can spare us the elitist rhetoric of someone who does not do the physical and metaphorical heavy lifting American people do day in and day out to make this country move forward.
Americans do not just sit behind desks typing nonsensical legislation passed by nonsensical politicians as the staff of the elitists Senate get to do.
It's time we tell our Congressboys and girls in both parties that we're looking for representatives who will maintain the security and protection for us that specific Senators and Representatives won't do.

I would boo McCain at his own Funeral (but quietly with respect for the other dead at the Cemetery)

Dane raises his ugly anti-Americanism again. He loves the illegals and hates conservatives & Christians. He pulls out obscure facts and I can tell you sure as shootin he has obscured or somehow altered his "facts" to make a statement that is most likely untrue in the context in which he quoted it. He is a troll... make no mistake about it.
To: mlc9852
The union may not have any manners but McCain doesnt deserve the citizens respect. I think I am in good company here, I believe Jim Robinson called McCain a "traitor".
McCain should be booed everywhere he goes. If he wants cheap votes let him go to the mexican revolution protests in our cities where he can tell the crowd how he thinks Americans are lazy.

More like $9.00 and that is without benefits, if you are related to someone you get benefits and $12.00 but you won't get hired period unless you know someone. The carrot of full-time with benefits will always be there and it will repeatedly by jerked away as soon as the full-timers kids Graduate from High school.
Been there done that, it's a waste of time.
