Tom Tancredo warns America itself 'in mortal danger'

[You Dirty Rats]

Don't know his history that well, but did Ronald Regan ever "work in a wealth producing endeeavor"?

He was an actor and led the Screen Actors Guild. I'd say there is a lot of wealth in Hollywood.

The name is Reagan, BTW. Normally I despise the spelling geeks but misspelling the Gipper's (do you know why he's called that?) name and displaying a total ignorance of the man won't win many friends around here.

He was a shoe salesman, a sports broadcaster and a contract player for a major Hollywood studio. Yeah, I would say he generated profits in his life.

Dane doesn't understand the true value of wealth. Teachers to Dane are the worst thing ever ( some are I agree but Cmon now) while movie actors are actually contributing wealth generation.

Reagan being an exception, I would take the majority of teachers over the majority of actors every day of the week.

There is no greater wealth than that of knowledge.

Maybe someday dane will post something other than teacher bashing, basement theaters and they just come to pick vegetables. Well I maybe I wish too much.

Notice how Mr. doom and gloom tancredo has never worked in a wealth producing endeavor. The vast majority of his career has been on the public payroll.

You keep saying this about Conservative Republican Tom Tancredo. What is your point? His voting record on ALL conservative issues (not just immigration reform/border security) is nearly unparalleled in Congress. So, how could he be voting MORE conservative than he already is if he had done the things that you act like he should have done to make him more worthy? What is your damned point!? Or do you just enjoy trashing a good, solid conservative Republican on a conservative forum? How could Conservative Republican Tom Tancredo have better ratings than these?

100% "Best and Brightest" Rating from American Conservative Union (one of only 38 other Congressmen)
100% Rating from National Right to Life Committee
100% Rating from Conservative Index (Spring '05 - 75% lifetime, tied for second highest rating)
100% Rating from Concerned Women for America
100% Rating from Christian Coalition
100% Rating from Campaign for Working Families
100% Rating from FreedomWorks
98% Rating from National Tax Limitation Committee (average since 1999)
95% "Taxpayer Hero" Rating from Citizens Against Government Waste
95% Rating from Americans for Tax Reform
95% Rating from Christian Action Network
93% Rating from Eagle Forum (tied for second highest rating)
0% Rating from National Education Association
0% Rating from National Organization for Women
0% Rating from Brady Campaign
0% Rating from People for the American Way
0% Rating from Planned Parenthood
0% Rating from Pro-Choice America

There are few, if any, Congressmen with a better conservative voting record than this. Stop trashing him.

"Prior to his election to Congress in 1998, Tancredo worked as a schoolteacher"

I don't know what subject he taught, but I am sure I would have loved him as a history teacher. He would have had a bit more to say than what was written in the text book.

[sinkspur]

If you can't understand that then the church has failed you spiritualy.

I can understand it, I just think it's Tancredoese for "I am your moral savior. Turn America over to me, and I'll make sure there's not a Mexican left to threaten your livelihood."

[You Dirty Rats]

hiring barbarian mercenaries to defend the empire because they were unwilling to defend it themselves. Tancredo says America is following in the tragic footsteps of Rome.

Pure libel on the Americans who defend this country. He's not fit to lead a girl scout troop.

I have no use for fringe politicians who have to make a bogus case about how horrible this country is in a quest for fame, fortune and/or power. This isn't Bolivia.

[Spiff]

Easy, tom tancredo follows the lunatic rantings of michael weiner(savage) and not the hopefulness of Ronald Reagan.

You have no evidence that Conservative Republican Tom Tancredo who has earned a 100% "Best and Brightest" rating from the American Conservative Union has any association with Michael Savage, one of the top conservative radio talk show hosts (that you also continually trash - anyone notice a pattern here). You're just making crap up and trying to smear one of the most conservative Representatives we have in Congress. What is your point in all of this?

[dalereed]

This nation is in mortal danger from the likes of you, Dane, and a few others here.

[buccaneer81]

"Prior to his election to Congress in 1998, Tancredo worked as a schoolteacher"

Shsss... Teachers are saints when they are libs, so sayeth Dane and Sinkspur. But Conservative teachers? God forbid.

[Spiff]

Sometimes I feel the America is in mortal danger from Tancredo. At least the Republican party.

This is a conservative website. Rep. Tom Tancredo is one of the most conservative Republicans in Congress. He is wildly popular amongst the grassroots Republicans. I've attended two Republican functions that were sold out simply because Rep. Tancredo came to our state and appeared at the functions. This is repeated all over the place. Why do you state that one of the most conservative Congressmen is a "mortal danger"? I just posted his voting record. I'll bet you can't find someone with a better conservative voting record and who leads a large caucus that is made up of one third of the Republicans in Congress.

Tom Tancredo, a Conservative Republican.

[Spiff]

Neither was tom tancredo's basement theater. It was built with foreign born labor(which tom tancredo admitted, but blamed the contractor, since he was to "busy" in Washington). If Mr. tancredo would stay true to his rehtoric he would get a sledgehammer and destroy the work, by his own rhetoric, done by bad labor.

This has been refuted here. Repeatedly. Yet you continue to post the Democrat oppostion's LIES about conservative Republican Tom Tancredo. You are a liar and you know it.

[BlueStateDepression]

What is your point in all of this?

Dane wants open borders and is against dealing with illegal on that very level, you know, Illegal.

Dane slams tancredo (IMHO) because he fears him being elected and seeing his hopes and dreams of open borders destroyed once and for all.

Dane if I am mistaken as to why you slam Tancredo every chance you get could you be so kind as to explain the reason you do this?

[PRND21]

This has been refuted here.

By you and yours alone. Show me the Denver Post or Fox News retraction.

[Dane]

Professional Experience: Teacher, Drake Junior High School.

Political Experience:
Representative, United States House of Representatives, 1999-present
Regional Representative, United States Department of Education, 1981-1993
Representative, Colorado State House of Representatives, 1976-1982.

The above is tancredo's resume from Project Vote Smart

He worked for 12 years at the Dept. of Education. Talk about a career beaureaucrat.

[Minutemen]

Mr. doom and gloom tancredo has never worked in a wealth producing endeavor.

Let's all stay on the George Bush cheerleading squad (even if he is wrong) and rah-rah our country into oblivion. I agree with Tom Tancredo. And by the way, name a politician that is not on the public payroll.

[Re-electNobody]

For someone "upbeat and optimistic" President Bush has a negative attitude towards America's ability to control our borders. Where is that "can-do" American spirit that used to permeate our country? If the will power is there, this country can stop practically all the illegal invaders.

[BlueStateDepression]

Denver post says that Tancredo hired a drywall company, that companies president says he believed that all workers were here legally.

SHEESH man is that all you got?

Sorry sink. That argument is classic. Anyone who shows moral sense is out to cram it down everyone else's throat. And so we drift further from the "Glue" that made us great and held us all together. Tancredo states clearly that we All need to get back to our traditional family and spiritual values. He makes the point that flooding our culture with Illegals is a sure move away from that. Most of them have no respect for who we are at all. They only want to come here and make a buck. Other than that they despise America. If they respected it then they would apply to come here legally.
