I searched but did not see a thread already open for tonights speech. I think this is the most important speech the President will probably make for the remainder of his term.


Mod Note:
This could turn into a whack-a-troll thread. All immigration trolls that would like to participate should post here. It'll be interesting to see if we mods can whack the trolls faster than they can sign up new accounts.

Why would you call my husband a Liar? That's a cheap shot, kiddo.

You were the one making the false statement that American teenagres can't find any jobs.

I proved you wrong, any teenager can go into McDonalds and they will probably be hired.

So before you get indignant how laying off the false hyperbole.

""If virtual fences are such a hot idea, why not try them around the WH and the Capitol"

GREAT POST!! So true."

That's not a great post. It's a silly comparison that is designed to sling mud at President Bush (and congress).

You forgot to mention how many brutal rape-murders have been committed by illegal aliens in the past five years. It is truly disgusting.

Is this what the poet Emma Lazarus meant by "wretched refuse"?

I'm here.

He's going to propose amnesty.

Don't say we don't know that, the exerpts and his own people show it as truth.

he's going to hope the American people will buy it with a few Guards on the border doing nothing but what the Minutemen already do.

I know this from what has been released.

But the President has chosen political suicide despite warnings, so be it.

But I don't think Fox wants us to even secure the border.

I hope he can handle disappointment.

And of course native born Americans never committ any crimes.

All ethnic groups have their human scum, but you would rather focus on the ethnicity rather than the brutal crimes they committ.

Not B.S. My nephew was caught up in drugs and got busted, as he should have been. When he got out, the only job he could get was in salvage and demolition. He was the only person on his crew who spoke English, but he was treated and paid as poorly as the illegals, never knowing from one day to the next if his job would go to an illegal paid less than minimum wage, as it eventually did.

The City of Houston has 7,000 cops.

W can't assign more than 6,000 Guardsmen to a 1900 mile border?

The reason he won't assign more is because this is not a serious attempt to secure the border but a dog and pony show.

Its sad.
