Both parties are NOT going to unite against President Bush.
There is NO, I repeat way, to "elevate Condi Rice to president"; NONE! Did you never ever learn anything in school/study politics and our Constitution on your own? Are you older than 8 years old?
Joe, bloody damned, LIEberman for Condi's VP? ARE YOU COMPLETELY OUT OF YOUR MIND? Joe LIEberman, outside of his support on the WOT is one of THE biggest LIBERALS, flip flopping, liars, in the entire national political scene and has been for decades! He's so far left, that he makes John Edwards look like a moderate bordering on conservative!
Oh goody..you "support the Dems taking over the House in November." Aren't you special? You are looking forward to the impeaching of President Bush, Nancy Pelsoi as Speaker of the House, and the rest of the utter and complete garbage that that would entail? WHAT THE BLOODY HELL ARE YOU DOING ON FR...DU IS TO YOUR LEFT...GO THERE!
You don't know much of anything at all about politics, our government,or the various people whom you are discussing.
The Dems have to win MANY seats, now held by GOP incumbents; to take over the House. This is NOT as "easy" as you imagine it to be. And since most of FR's fringers and doom&gloom whiners are NOT a majority in the states where they live, this is most probably O( THANK GOD ! ), not going to happen.
My thoughts exactly.
Isn't it interesting that its apparently okay for Specter (who Bush went out of his way to rescue from certain removal), and McCain and Graham, and the Administration to throw all kinds of Temper Tantrums...and bricks... at the conservative base of the party... but Heavan forbid we finally pick up our ball and go home.
Specter ( spit, spit ) also helped get us Roberts and Alito on the SCOTUS. Are you going to tell me that the Dems would do that?
They already do have control. They have infiltrated the party.
Ever visited the other newsgroups such as USENET, alt.rush-limbaugh, alt.politics, Google political groups, Yahoo Political Messageboards, regional political boards, MSNTV Discussions...etc?
Hint. FR does not have a monopoly on this sentiment towards the GOP.
The primaries are the place to 'burn the 'Old Oaks & Maples' and plant fresh, untainted, pure conservative seeds.
I like Roberts and Alito but not willing to give my nation to Mexico just to have them
Open border: A border with little or no control over who comes across. Although there are laws against it and there are some agents trying to prevent it, our border with Mexico is essentially "open" with millions of illegal aliens crossing it every year.
Amnesty: Amnesty is a general pardon from the government for law-breaking. It's against the law to cross our borders or overstay visas without permission. It's against the law to avoid deportation once you've been ordered to leave. It's against the law to re-enter if you've ever been deported. And it's against the law to recruit, hire, harbor or encourage those lawbreakers. To pardon these persons and allow them to become citizens is amnesty.
The Senate, including Republicans, are proposing a bill that would not control the border, therefore keeping it "open", but would grant amnesty to illegal aliens who have been in this Country for a certain number of years.
Thus: Republicans are supporting open borders and amnesty.
I looked at your profile and there was nothing there. I see what you mean about the "KNOW NOTHINGS." Been a member a long time?
Look at the Dubai Ports hysteria.
I couldn't believe it either. The overall IQ of this forum has dropped precipitously in the last 18 months.
So please, lets get off the Catholic bashing.
It's not Catholic bashing. It's liberal RINO Catholic bashing. Don't want to admit the Church has a few faults do you, like being way too liberal. Most Catholics still vote Democratic. The U.S. Bishops are almost all liberal, and are for liberalizing church doctrine, as you must know. See the moat in your own church's eye and help to fix it. If you have seen any of my many posts you would know I in general come to the defense of Christianity and most Christian churches, and half of my own family is Catholic, the other half Lutheran. That's made for some fun.
So cut the Catholic bashing baloney that's so easy to use for a defense and realize that it is much of the Catholic Church in the U.S. that is supporting illegal aliens. One reason, I believe, is that Mexicans and most S. Americans are Catholic, and will help to fill the dwindling number of people filling the pews in so many areas of the country, another reason being that strain of social activism that has always permeated the U.S. Catholic church, w/activist nuns running around all over the world sticking their noses into usually socialistic causes. I didn't make the Catholic Church behave the way it does, which is why I am much more attracted to the Eastern Catholic Church which doesn't seem to be so infected by liberals as the U.S. Catholic Church, and emphasizes spirituality over social activism, the exception being pre-Vatican II Catholics. Which brings me back to my fix your own liberal element in your Catholic Churches by disavowing social activist priest/bishops/cardinals who butt into the illegal immigrant issue, and start getting some conservative thinkers into the Church. You tell me what, if anything, I have just said is untrue and prove it.
The continental USA has four, count 'em, FOUR BORDERS...the one we share with Canada, the one we share with Mexico ( which, stupidly, is the only one you people care about ), the one facing the Atlantic Ocean, and the one facing the Pacific Ocean! If you want to get picky, you can throw in the Gulf of Mexico, but nobody usually counts that.
There is no such a thing as "topological geometry"!
And then, there are the wee troublesome things such as airports. Lots of illegals come in by plane.
You're an illegal alien aren't you.
LOL1 Yup, I'm an alien all right. Scientology you know. And you are still a Bushbot.
Shut-up and get me a sandwich.
They basically decide what the 'conservative' vote on a bill is (dubious, i know, but they do a good job), and tally up the votes over a session and lifetime.
So an ACU lifetime rating of 98 and a 2005 rating of 100 means that over their career in congress, they voted the conservative way 98% of the time, and 100% of the time in 2005.
It's worth a peek. It does offer some sobering insights from time to time. For example, John McCain - the RINO of RINOs to many - enjoys a lifetime ACU rating of 83%, while the most favored democrat in the Senate on FR - Smokin' Joe Lieberman, has a lifetime rating of only 17%.
That's Freeper myopia for you.
Check it out. It's just a tool, and not the alpha & omega. Check it out: http://www.acuratings.org/
Thanks for the information! I had never heard of them, but I've book marked it. I've got to hit the sack now, but I'll check it out tomorrow. :o)
BUt don't most Republicans in the Senate envision that the House bill when combined with the Senate Bill will have tough border controls and thus not be a open border bill. At least thats how I see it happening. I can live with your defination of amnesty. Even though, I think the Senate bill sees something more like Amnesty with a mnay conditions.
Your link has NOTHING at all to do with Pelosi and your post makes no sense at all. Oh yes, and LEARN HOW TO SPELL!
