I am now an official George Allen fan!
I'm watching the Senate debate an Amendment by Jeff Sessions to deny the Earned Income Tax Credit to anyone receiving amnesty. Sessions made an excellent case, but McCain backhandedly accused Sessions of being racist but saying the amendment would tell "legal workers" (those he would grant amnesty) to "go to the back of the bus".
McCain has told so many lies that he's beginning to believe them himself.
We need to take a look at Mike Pence's immigration plan.
Pence's bill will do the following
1 Pass HR 4437
2 The border will be secured
3 Interior laws will be enforced
4 NO path to citizenship will be granted
5 Anchor baby citizenship will end
6 Removes all 10 to 12 million illegal aliens for United States
7 There will no longer be “undocumented workers”
8 Private Sector
9 Secures the border first.
10 We will control our border
Pence's bill only gives guest worker status after they have returned home and he gives them no path to citizenship.
"Some call it amnesty. I call it probation and parole," says Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback
Allen/Pence 2008
I hope we choose someone from outside Washington who can connect with conservatives for a few months before he joins the dark side.
A Senator will never win the presidency. Besides, all the Senators we have are wimps. It will either be a Governor or a person outside of Washington.
I might become one, too. Anybody who wants to grant amnesty to criminals will NEVER get my vote.
Sessions for President!
I saw Sessions on Neil Cavuto and he was pretty good.
Sorry for the typos above. Any one other than Sessions figure out that the welfare bill alone will be $29 Billion, including the earned income credit? Sessions pointed out that the money is more than enough to build a fence, hire enough BP agents etc and have money left over.
As far as building a fence along the border and the nay sayers...
How many Frenchmen does it take to defend Paris?
No one knows, It has never been done.
LET'S TRY THE FENCE BEFORE WE SURRENDER.
God bless George Allen! He is a true conservative. I am proud that he is my senator. I will be proud to support his re-election this year and (hopefully) his presidential candidacy in 2008.
Check out the latest issue of the American Spectator for more info; you can also go to his official web site at www.georgeallen.com.
Like Reagan was with the Panama Canal Treaty, Allen stands with the majority of Americans and against the congressional limp wristers.
"Sessions for President!"
I could go for that. Not fancy, but a decent man.
I think this will impact the 2006 elections more than the 2008 elections. Alot can happen before 2008 (2 whole years) - another attack, catastrophy either natural or otherwise will pull our attention for weeks on end and this will fade just like everything else that captures our attention as soon as the bill is passed and then the American people (not Freepers) will go on. We are a small group of people here on free Republic and most Americans are not into this stuff. Hardly anyone I know cares about this that much that it will effect their vote in 2008 because they are not as politically motivated as we are. The American people are not going to carry this in their minds for 2 more years - they will move on (I hate to say it but the attention span for most Americans is very short).
