Here's the deal - we want a libertarian immigration policy, we need a libertarian country. You want socialism, crack out the guns and build the walls.
TONY, TONY, TONY.
*sigh*
If you listen carefuly, you can hear the sound of the formerly straight-talking Tony Snow losing his last bit of credibility.
Once they consulted the liberal republicans and dems in congress who told them "tone it down a little, we are trying to keep the idiots who really love America in the dark from knowing the truth, the invaders, only then, backed off, for appearance sake only.
Tony Snow is wrong and he is schilling for those who seek to destroy our way of life. Snow should at least have the minerals to say, "Americans, we don't give a damn what you think, this is what the leadership wants, and to hell with the rest of you." I would resent it, but I would respect him for telling us the damn true nature of his (and the Administration's heart). If Tony didn't agree with these notions, he should resign on principle. But he obviously agrees.
What flagrant disregard for the will of the people, especially the will of the people who put your ass in office. It is disgusting and dangerous. There are a lot of people out here who are fed up to their eyeballs with this invasion.
Where are the schills for the Adminstration answering questions, like....in this day and age of Social Security going bankrupt, how will the new SS recepients not bankrupt a failing system even faster than it is going now. How will this keep a health care delivery system from imploding faster than it is now. How will government education keep from floundering more profoundly than it is now with a new and burdonson load of non-English speaking people to be educated. I get the feeling that this is their desired objective, but to what end I cannot fathom would work to their benefit. Where is the debate by the bastards who are foistering this over on a mostly unsuspecting public. Where is Bush? Where is he at a lectern educating the voting public as to why this is the right thing to do. He is AWOL, because he knows Americans do not want the country to be given away for votes. I had rather keep my country and loose some elections and hold to some principles than what the Adminstration is doing along with a complicitous senate and left wing. He is doing this because he wants to do this, but he does not give a reasoned analysis to us. Convince me and I will go with you. But don't expect to have me check my mind and my childrens future at the door. If it were just me and my wife, I would not be so exercised, but I have three children that he wants to destroy their futures for the sake of a G*ddamn election. This is wrong, dead wrong!
Tony Snow is a weenie. Bush just picked him because he was so -----bland, mainstream, noncontroversial. Soothing the feathers of the conservative out here in the hinter lands. (all of us uninformed unwashed masses.) BAAAAAAAh. No self respecting Texan gives a hoot about such a wimp. Makes my stomach turn. Keep talking, November '06 will be a bloodbath for the GOP. Can't wait to help with that and I'm a dyed and dipped Republican since Reagan.
Way to kill a two bit radio and book writing career, Snow your mind has no material connotation and the lose of it no material consequences.
You are absolutely right. When the Mexican government made a policy decision to aid and abet illegal immigration, it became an invasion.
If they can parse away this Constitutional protection, they can parse away all of them.
If you asked Snow if that position changes if "job seeking invaders" are pouring in from China by boat by the thousands per day, he would call it "hypothetical" and fail to answer.
I am beginning to lose a lot of respect for Tony Snow........
1) If it LOOKS like an invasion;
2) And it SOUNDS like an invasion;
3) Guess what? IT IS AN INVASION!
god what is wrong with these people in washington and what the heck is up with tony snow i use to listen to him what is going on.
Our Federal government has insinuated itself into many areas that are really state's concerns as delineated by our Constitution. But the Feds most definitely are charged with defending our borders. And this they neglect because GW and the US Senate believe in some kind of cockamamie North American economic zone.
ME? I want as little to do with Mexico as possible. Mexico is not our friend. Mexico is nothing but bad news and gimme gimmme gimme
Clinton's legacy is blow jobs, looks like Bush plans for a legacy on Snow jobs.
I have long been disappointed in Bush on illegal invasion, and now I am disappointed in Snow.
Spin. A complete Snow job. There is nothing in the word "invasion" that necessarily connotes a martial meaning. Snow is the one who is trying to attach that meaning to it in order to demonize anyone who protests against this attempted subversion of the rule of law and he is doing it at the behest of the President.
people I know who live in L.A., democrats, have called it an invasion...
We have a problem here folks, and the website American Patrol had an interesting statement on it a few years ago,
"You won't know what kind of problem you have until you try to stop it!"
BUMP
According to Bill Clinton: It all depends on what the meaning of "invasion" is.
