Although it was not a "perfect" bill, I would have voted for it - I am thinking long-term and over-all costs vs. benefits - maybe if we hadn't allowed Roe v. Wade to kill off 40 million American babies, we wouldn't need all these immigrants. "Change" for the better is not an anti-conservative ideal - see GOP and slavery in 1865. Hopefully, neither Tancredo nor Sensenbrenner get on the House - Senate Conference Committee.

Tony Snow can't really believe what he is telling us!

The man gets a new job and this is what The President wants Tony to try to sell us on!

Good Grief Mr. President.

Mr. Snow has been posting the same exact stuff on this issue right here at FR (and his radio show) for years. SOME fiscal conservatives understand the long-term economic implications of isolationism.

You think calling for Secure Borders with extreemly generous Legal immigration isolationism?

There's a huge difference between getting a ticket and being an illegal immigrant.

To get a ticket, you have to have a car, a license, an ability to understand and read signs, car insurance, and you have to pay a fine AND pay more for insurance.

To get picked up for illegal immigrant, you have to go up to a border agent the first few miles in, and moon him. He'll give you a stern warning and a ride back to the border.

Tony is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

A Freeper and a CFR member, that is unique. Do you have a link that documents Tony's CFR membership?

history will place right next to Coolidge in the Pantheon of presidents."""

Excuse me, Coolidge was a great president. He was one of Reagan's favorite presidents - for good reason. Kept spending in control (unlike the modern GOP, which - under Bush - spends like Democrats) and kept taxes low. Also kept the country out of war, so government didn't grow. A great president.

Although it was not a "perfect" bill, I would have voted for [the Senate Bill].

A courageous and candid admission, Clawrence3. Maybe you could start a thread, "Freepers who support the Senate Bill, check in here", to show that you are not alone.

Which just proves you're a FROBL. And no, we don't need "all these immigrants". In particular, we don't need THESE criminals, with their law-breaking attitude. Send them all home, and for every two so sent, let in ONE person on the LEGAL immigration waiting list. Criminality should NEVER be rewarded.

A thread with the fewest posters in FR history.

What is "extremely"? The Senate plan calls for up to 3 million per year.

So, when are you going to start a movement to outlaw plea bargains too? As for me being a "FROBL", you are really saying every Senator that voted for it was too? This issue is a little more complicated than that.

If I could, I would, but, not being in politics sort of prevents that. But yes, I'm opposed to "plea bargains".

Well, since I doubt that "every Senator that voted for it" was a member of Free Republic (FROBL=Free Republic Open Borders Lobbyist), I guess not. Treasonous, yes.

"This issue is a little more complicated than that.

Not really. They are here illegally, committing crimes just by their presence, and they should be deported. There's nothing "complicated" about it.

LOL - you know that MILLIONS of people break the speed limit EVERYDAY and a tiny fraction of those get ticketed - good luck catching all those lawbreakers too ; )

Tony, as I have heard him on Sean Hannity and Rush's radio show, sounds like a kid in the candy store when talking about his new job. Seriously! He giggles and laughs about how lucky he is and, I don't know, it just isn't the Tony I heard in the past.

I am not sure how to take this.

Ego?

Do you think there are some Senators watching?

Or, simply a person determined to destroy the U.S?

Which is it?
