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.

[clyde asbury]

Without strong, moral leadership, without a renewed sense of purpose, without a rededication to family and community, without shunning the race hustlers and pop-culture sham artists, without protecting borders, language and culture, the nation that once was "the land of the free and home of the brave" and the "one last best hope of mankind" will repeat the catastrophic mistakes of the past, he writes.

A scathing review with details about how wrong he is would be most welcome.

[pollyannaish]

It's nearly over for America is a huge contrast to it's Morning in America. How people who claim to be Reagan devotees can see Tancredo in the same mold is beyond me.

I am not questioning his contributions to the debate, because I agree with him on some. He is just not Presidential material as some have suggested. Too "specialized."

[petkus]

Right now, I would trust Tom Tancredo on the issue of illegal aliens than I would President George W. Bush.

The illegal aliens will get amnesty for the utilization of false social security cards and the employers who are complicit in the use of these bogus social security cards will get amnesty.

Just imagine if you or I did the same thing, we would be sent to CLUB FED where we would get our chastity violated!

I'm glad someone has the moral compass to see where this nation is heading. We are becoming the modern post Roman Empire, and if we don't get back to our moral base, we will end up just like them....defeated, not from without, but from within, through our moral corruptness, self indulgence, and willful ignorance, apathy, and compacency about what's happening around us and to this nation. God help us. God bring us back our common sense.

[blasater1960]

Go Tancredo! Personally, I like the fact that he says it like it is. No Sugar-coating. Besides, he is correct. We are a lazy society who is getting addicted to "slavery-light". We will pay, big time.....

[Mrs. Darla Ruth Schwerin]

Yes, folks. We are rapidly becoming like Soddom and Gommorrah. All the great empires followed their exact path. And each one said, oh no, we will not fall into that pit. But as the saying goes, "Pride Goeth Before A Fall"...

[rodeocowboy]

I agree with Tancredo. I don't know what is wrong with most of you. We have little, little girls (preteens) wearing barely anything to school (they actually had a mainstream report on it with a psychologist on a major news station), we have kids having babies at an alarming rate, we have divorce rates of 50% for the first time in history, we have thirty to forty year olds still acting like teenage thugs everywhere you look, internet porn addictions and child molestations are at an all-time high, church membership is very low, we now have female teachers seducing (on a regular basis) young teenagers, we have the Deputy Press Secretary of Homeland Security trying to seduce kids from his government office, and "right and wrong" have been replaced with "politically correct and incorrect," we have criminals demanding rights in the streets by the millions without arresting one of them when we (Republicans) have unprecedented control of government, and the list goes on and on. We, sadly, are a nation in decay and like addicts, refuse to recognize a problem exists. We either stand up now or we are through as a relevant force in the world. God has never allowed an empire to rule indefinately when that empire became corrupt. Don't believe me? Look at the Greek, Roman, and USSR empires.

[HisKingdomWillAbolishSinDeath]

Everything man has done will soon become meaningless and obsolete, as people begin to realize its only what Christ did that will last into eternity.

Before the end, all that can be shaken will be shaken. The destroyer will destroy until all that can be, is destroyed. All who can be deceived will be deceived. Men will cry out and curse God in the pain of their destruction. Everything that lifts itself against Jesus who is the Word of God, will be brought down. All that is of the pride and loftiness of man shall fall. Only the kingdom of God cannot be shaken and will not be destroyed. The goal of God is that wickedness perish and the sons of God be purified to rule and reign with Him on earth.

[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.

[TheSpottedOwl]

Bravo! I hope Bill Cosby endorses him for president.

[dynachrome]

....and in the election this year I will be voting for Congressman Tancredo!

[John Lenin]

It's all part of the plan because our socialism is unsustainable and the President and everyone in government knows it.

That's the facts Jack.

[ladyinred]

I think in President Bush we have moral leadership. The problem is the media who are lapdogs for the left have done all they could to destroy him, and now people of his own party have bought into the propaganda as well. They should know better, but.......!

[kittymyrib]

If confronted with a ballot featuring McCain and Hellery, I will write in Tancredo. He has been right all along.

[trubluolyguy]

I'll be buying a copy on payday.

[Dante3]

Tancredo is right.

[philman_36]

I see you've managed to raise the ire of some of the usual suspects...The Pain, Stinky, and apoplecticfreeper...

[Mo1]

Tancredo says America is following in the tragic footsteps of Rome.

Living up to his reputation for candor, Tancredo explains how the economic success and historical military prowess of the United States has transformed a nation founded on Judeo-Christian principles of right and wrong into an overindulgent, self-deprecating, immoral cesspool of depravity.

Oh Good Grief ... he's a nutcase
