You bragged about hiring an illegal. What do you not understand about this?

I understand that you think this is a big deal. That's what I understand.

If you've ever eaten in a restaurant, and was served water by an illegal, you're just as "guilty" as I am.

Put your hands up!!

[nicmarlo]

The topic is language and compliance of the law, the breaking of which is committing a felony.

What does that have to do with Tancredo?

Hell if it means that Taccredo goes up the river then I would sacrifice Sinkspur. Sorry Sink. LOL

[sinkspur]

He hired illegals. He admitted it.

Better email your paragraphs to his office. Pronto.

When did "eating at a restaurant" make the diner become the employer of the restaurant employees?

It doesn't Einstein just as hiring a contractor does not make you responsible for his workers.

Uh because tancredo's basement theater was done with "illegal" labor. You don't see him wielding a sledge hammer to his basement theater because it was built with impure labor.

[nicmarlo]

The topic is the language of the law and the resulting guilt of committing a felony if that law is not followed.

The topic was not whether that law applies only to Sinkspur. That's the point of having a law. It applies to all.

That one breaks the law does not give excuse, justification, or permission for others to do the same, nor does the breaking the law by one or more people nullify that law.

[nicmarlo]

see post #1408, since you want to make up the same excuses for law breaking.

[A CA Guy]

I still think there is a crisis if we are losing these hard core Republicans. We must do everything we can to avoid such a tragedy.

No that is your topic but your topic doesn't pertain to one person on this thread. You are now in a round room looking for a corner.

Then you better put out a warrant for your hero tom tancredo.

[nicmarlo]

and you're dillusional

[nicmarlo]

That you justify lawbreaking shames you, not me.

[Spiff]

Tell that to Tancredo and stop your whining. I will say this, not you not Spiff and not Marine_inspector are going to tell me who the hell I can hire to mow my lawn, paint my house or anything else. If you don't like it turn me in.

Oh, interesting. Have you hired illegal aliens? I mean, when you act so cavalier about it and dare someone to turn you in for it, that's a very easy assumption for someone to make. So, have you?

[Texasforever]

Yeah but that is different cause everyone knows that Tom would have NEVER paid less for illegal labor. It is the same as those that beat Bush over the head with Reagan when Reagan did far worse. They have a list a mile long excusing Reagan and then gripe when others make excuses for Bush. Hypocrites one and all.

Huh? Just following the tancredo example.

More than likely and I make no apologies for it. If you don't like stick where the sun don't shine. It's my hard earned money and none of your damned business.

Yep, hypcrites and control freaks about how buildings are built and food is grown, kinda of like democrats.

[nicmarlo]

No, you were just following the others' example by justifying lawbreakers. You only jumped on the Tancredo bandwagon when you didn't like me stating that a law is not nullified because someone breaks it; therefore, the mentioning of a particular individual does not give rise to making excuses or justify anybody who breaks that law. And that was your intent.
