WILLIAM WELD Addresses GOP Hispanics
GOP gubernatorial hopeful William Weld told a gathering of Hispanic Republicans yesterday that he supports congressional proposals to create a guest-worker program for undocumented immigrants.
"Congress must pass a comprehensive immigration bill creating a guest worker program that gives hardworking immigrants a path toward citizenship," Weld said in remarks delivered to the Republican National Hispanic Assembly in Yonkers. "It's good for the economy and it's good for New York."
Weld, the former governor of Massachusetts and a candidate for the GOP nomination for governor of New York, said immigrant workers should be treated with respect. "The American work ethic should be encouraged, and this nation should welcome anyone willing to add energy to our economy," Weld said.
He alluded to his experience in Massachusetts as a qualification...... "When I was governor, I cut spending, I cut taxes, I expanded school choice, I improved Medicaid, I cleaned up the environment and presided over an economy that created over 200,000 new jobs," he said.

WELD: "Congress must pass a comprehensive immigration bill creating a guest worker program that gives hardworking immigrants a path toward citizenship," he said in remarks delivered to the Republican National Hispanic Assembly in Yonkers. The sucking sound you hear is Wee Willy Weld assuming the Hyphenate-Fellate position.
Hope ol' Willy bought lotsa lip balm----sucking up to hyphenates can burn your lips, and can also be hazardous to your political life.

Ah, good ol' Pink Floyd Weld, the original RINO of the 1980's! The only time I can remember not voting Republican was the 1988 Mass. Gubernatorial election. That year I voted for Democrat John "mad dog foaming at the mouth" Silber, a DINO for all intents and purposes. Now, I don't vote for either party(see tagline).

LOL........Dims Hyphenate-Fellate party will be replete with fried rice-stuffed burritos, pastrami Egg Fu Yung, grits in Marinara sauce, oregano bagels filled with teriyaki-glazed ham, chitlins and chili peppers, all washed down with vintage Manishevitz, chilled Corona, and Spanish fly.

Well, like it or not, if it's John McCain in 2008 you can count on four of us, not just three.
The Republican party has bastardized itself into irrelevance.

If you think I'm voting for what the Republican party stands for these days you're crazy. And frankly, that you'd be willing to says something about you.

I am so tired of hearing these people referred to as immigrants. The term "immigrant" implies completion of a legal process in order to leave one country and settle in another. My grandparents were immigrants from Europe. They had to apply, go through the Ellis Island thing, test for citizenship, etc. Nor are they "guests", rather uninvited gate crashers. Since most of the protesters we see waving the Mexican flag skipped the whole legal process they are illegal aliens. Oh my head hurts from banging it against this same wall.

To: Liz
Liz, like you, we are outraged because every single American, our children and our grandchildren are being hurt by this issue and Washington says, to bad so sad suck it up.
The illegals who we have no idea how many there are, who they are, where they are really from (tho they come thru the pit called mexico) what their true intent is have flooded into this country with estimates of 10-20 MILLION,
who are costing each and every one of us in money in resources and SECURITY!so few may profit.
Couple that with an unlimited amount of legal immigrants and the cost is a disaster for each and every one of us of epic proportions!
