Mr. President, I thank Senator Leahy, ranking member on the Judiciary Committee. I have received just this afternoon in my office some disturbing news in the form of correspondence from the Congressional Budget Office. It suggests a number of areas where the amendment we are talking about here today, No. 3424, the immigration so-called compromise, violates our budget and the rules of the Senate. Let me read from the correspondence we have received. This is something, as you know, Mr. President, as a member of the Judiciary Committee, that we never discussed at all. It is not a matter we spent any time at all discussing as we moved forward with legislation which ultimately cleared that committee and came to the floor legislation which I thought was not good legislation and which I opposed, and so did the Senator from Texas, who just relinquished the Chair. We didn't discuss the financial impact of the legislation before us. Stand Up For America ! |

BTTT
just take a look at New Zealand...they have openly racist political parties active outfront
something we sure don't cotton to
methinks this poster is projecting his issues as a minority within New Zealand on us...just a hunch..nothing new about that..
No, you didn't. You just called us bigots.
As far as the statue of liberty goes, the tired and poor coming these days, expect entitlements and handouts. That's not what this country was founded on. That's not what the people that built the country intended.
You could be right.
possible solution that does not depend on who is running the Justice Department
> Again, you're a slave to the bleatings and the leanings of the leftwing press.
I'm nobody's slave. That is why I post to the Free Republic.
There is no need to insult me: I am one of America's FRiends. I am also an Immigrant: an experience I'd recommend.
But isn't that what Charles is saying in his article.. which was what original question was about? If I understand Charles, he says, build a wall FIRST... then we can consider other things. I myself would like to see an attempt to stop the flow of illegals first... and then I will be a lot more flexible the 11 million here. What I am afraid of is that the Senate will do just what they tried doing this past week in their "Bait and switch" skim. Basically bank amnesty and nothing done on the border, which it would mean, another 20 or 30 million in 10 years from now. And I have to tell you, unless we put a lot of pressure on the senate, they will find a way to get enough votes from the Rats and pass this thing.
I have lost the ability to calmly discuss invasion.
Then quit calling us bigots.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
No one has been more generous and accepting than the American people.
We agree 100% !!
"There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism...The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin...would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities." .......Teddy Roosevelt, Republican President (Speech, New York, 1915)

You'd be wrong. Immigrants assimilate well here, for the most part.
Sure we have wingnut politicians, so do you. Our MMP political system allows and provides for it.
It is wrong and unfair for you to characterize me in this fashion, however. Just because our Democracy allows for racist parties to participate does not mean that I vote in that manner.
Not all Americans voted Democrat (thank God!).
Get it???
> Then quit calling us bigots.
At no time have I called you a bigot.
You show me where I called you such....link me too it .....prove I called "you" such. I think you have made a posting error friend. I didn't call you a bigot.
Yes you did...in post #131.
No, America's biggest weakness is bigotry.
At the very least, your statement shows a complete lack of knowledge about America.
> I think you have made a posting error friend. I didn't call you a bigot.
True: FRiendly fire, with apologies!
EternalVigilance asked me not to call him/her a bigot. Which at no time did I ever do.
Humble apologies, mate!
A reminder to DieHard:
This thread was established as a gathering place for patriotic Americans who want to secure our southern border and reverse the invasion of unlawful aliens into our sovereign nation, the United States.
Two great American patriots worked literally night and day to create the awesome graphics in the original post and to compile all the posts, information, links and highlights from this past historical week in our nation.
DieHard, if you have some personal grievance you wish to air, in my opinion it would be better if you just start a vanity thread of your own. We would really like to keep this thread for the purpose intended.
Get it???!!!
BTTT, it happens ......Stay safe !
> Yes you did...in post #131.
Re-read posts carefully, FRiend. Don't let your lips get tired.
And again: Statue of Liberty. True or False?
IMMIGRATION = Good. HOME INVASION = Bad.
Good observation.
The march "organizers" who asked participants to wear white t-shirts claimed that white symbolizes "peace."
Mmmm-hmmmm....
But, as you recall, a purely plain white t-shirt is also a garment of Latino gang-bangers, and in the old days that -- along with perfectly pressed khakis and a Pendleton shirt -- was the uniform.
Wow! You did a great job! Applause!
