The Meaning Of The Word "Amnesty" (Meet President Bush, The GOP Clinton Alert)

Even if it is only a dream, it's still something I can stomach more easily than ever buying the propaganda that tells us America has no choice but submission to a world of rapists determined to have their way with her over and over and over.

Over my dead body, they will!

As a supporter of President Bush, I am appalled by his statements.
I, as do almost all Americans, welcome legal immigration, but I cannot tolerate the flouting of our immigration laws. One difference separates the United States from Latin America: a inbred and organic respect for the law that stems from before the founding of this country. As a general rule, in Mexico and in the rest of Latin America the law is evaded or ignored by those who have power and those who don't.
While it is true that at times during the history of this country the deliberate flouting of the law has been approved, that approval is the exception that proves the rule. Martin Luther King, Jr violated state laws that sanctioned de jure segregation but was careful to adhere to federal law and court decisions. More importantly, King violated the law in the name of a higher law: his rights as an American citizen for equal treatment under the law.
Those who enter this country illegally make no such lofty claim; in fact, they make no claim of rights at all. They enter this country for the crassest of all reasons: to make money.

[F.J. Mitchell]

NO, Sink, I am painfully aware of the reality that the Dems see 12 million amnestized illegals as 12 million registered new votes for democrats.

I am sickeningly aware that Republican politicians are convinced that by smooching on enough illegal alien butts, they can be amnestized right into the Republican party as genuine conservative voters-not RINOs.

Obviously we can't fire all our RINOs and dumbarse Republicans at once, but if we can replace a good number of these critters with more conservative Repubs; it could just possible send a message to the other yellow bellied, traitorous, skunk, Republicans.

My only advice, for what it's worth, is to pick your battles wisely.

It is rather easy to resort to name calling when you can't argue the facts. With your position in favor of open Borders and Bush's massive federal spending and bureaucracy, I would think that your beliefs are far more closer to DU's than mine.

I understand that the truth hurts. And it is indeed true that the we have spent approximately 320 billion dollars and solders and civilians are still dying, despite Bush's proclamation of victory some time ago.

Bush didn't proclaim victory. You're reading DNC talking points.

[butternut_squash_bisque]

It's being used for something it wasn't intended for. It needs repealing and the 'anchor baby' crap stopped.

What other choice is there?

[F.J. Mitchell]

I try to do just that Zook, Lord knows I do try.

[raybbr]

You don't care about anybody but yourself.

Ooohhhh! What a stunning retort from an OBL.

[mthom]

Bush didnt run on giving illegals an automatic path to citizenship, which is exactly what he is promoting now.

On immigration enforcement, I don't this Bush - Clinton comparisson is fair...to Clinton

Under Clinton, worksite immigration-violation arrests weren't great, considering the size of the problem, but they were about 20 times greater than under Bush, who has basically stopped worksite enforcement.

Worksite Arrests (immigration violators):

Clinton Presidency, first four years, :
1993 8,027
1994 7,630
1995 7,554
1996 10,014
Total 33,325

Best year was 1997 with 17,554 worksite arrests

Bush Presidency, first four years:
2001 735
2002 485
2003 445
2004 159
Total 1,824

Best year was 2001 with 735 worksite arrests
