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.

The President is ONE man and the only president in DECADES who's taking on this no win situation

It's not a no-win situation at all. He could advocate the building of a security fence and be pretty much done with it.

Moi, a border conservative. Not me. Raised in South Texas, I traveled the border and the Rio Grande Valley alot in my younger days. I tend to think of many Mexican folks as more gracious, hospitable and devoted to faith and family than many Anglos legally living in the US of A. In addition, they are generally against birth control.

Frankly, if white folks in the US of A were more committed to perpetuating the native born population in this country, raising a godly seed, and ending the travesty of abortion, we would not need alot of the immigrant workers that are coming into this country.

Imagine all the millions of babies that have been killed since Roe and how many of them could be contributing to the productivity of our country?

You see, I feel that perpetuating abortion and the permitting sexual perversion in so many forms is far more damaging to our nation and worthy of diving punishment than the influx of those illegals who simply want to make bucks to send home and feed their starving families.

To me the question is which party does the most to promote a culture of death. As long as the Dems remain that party I will do all I can to insure that they never have access to the reins of power.

If Tancredo is a RINO, then what's a conservative? If Tancredo is a RINO, Spector is so far from being a liberal pub he isn't even a democrat, he's a flat out card carrying member of the American Socialist party. Tancredo a RINO. That's just flat stupid. That's reality taking a header for you. :)

They were typos as I type 55+ WPM and am trying to keep up with posts and not wasting time proof reading. How fast can you type huh? I'm sorry I didn't realize I was being graded teacher. Grow up.

90 wpm, thank you. And I can't help it that when you type fast, all of your typos seem to be the word "speach" which of course leads me to believe you don't know how to spell it. Why is it that your typo's all seem to be that particular word. Maybe you should slow down from your 55+, at least when you get around the word "speach". By the way, your grade is F as far as "speach" goes.

This is the main reason I have a problem with the illegals from Mexico. Too many of them are here to overthrow our government, and install their corrupt Mexican government. Not that ours is much better these days, but it's a far cry better than that hell hole across the border.

I live in NM and we already have 48% Hispanics living here. IF Congress gives all the illegals amnesty so that they can vote, we're going to see the same thing LA saw when they elected the mayor with ties to MEChA. They fully intend to install more anti American Mexicans into our government. You listen to this. It's really an eye opener!

There won't be deportations. Not even Tom Tancredo is supporting deportation.

The president made no mention of any increase in citizenship quotas.

Yes and he didn't mention how much this legalization would cost us taxpayers either..there are no citizenship quotas...

So you expect the US to erect a fence 2,000 miles long that would somehow be impenetrable?

The U.S.-Mexico border region is defined as 100 Km (62 miles) north and south of the international boundary. Two thousand miles long, the border region includes four states in the U.S. (California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas) and six states in Mexico (Baja California Norte, Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas).

Yes and W's has been oh so deceitful just like clinton was. Look, If Bush is nothing else, he's consistent and he's honest. He does what he says he's going to do. Might not always like it, but he does what he says he'll do. If he says no amnesty, there will be no amnesty. Name one single solitary thing that he said point blank he would or would not do, that he then did the exact opposite on purpose when there was a way to do otherwise? I can't think of a single one, and I haven't been too impressed with him the past year and a half.

build a wall
deport the illegals
fine employers who hire illegals

and we can return to making America better for AMERICANS!

Let the Mexicans protest in Mexico where their problems originate...
I'm tired of picking up Vicente Fox's tab.

Good plan. I'll even go one further....if we close the border, fine the employers, and take away the freebies we won't have to deport very many.

We all know why they don't protest in Mexico....they would dissappear, after being taken to an ATM of course!

The ranch house, in Crawford Texas, is hardly a "MANSION" and it most assuredly is NOT in a "GATED COMMUNITY"!

You have NO idea, whatsoever, what a "Third World" nation is actually like and America is not now and shall NOT soon turn into one.

Do you live in a slum now?

How about building a wall using a chain gang of captured illegal aliens? Should be plenty of those available to do the jobs "Americans won't do".
