Anyone, including you, who thinks the Pres is serious about border control is simply blind to the facts. Rant all you want, spin, whine and scream but President Bush wants an open border, both north and south, and he wants to give all the criminals who have come here illegally to have amnesty. It is plain to anyone who will open their minds to what is really going on here.
This issue is the big one for right now and probably will be for some years to come. The President and the both houses had better get with the program if they want republicans to hold seats for long.
If I have offended you by implying you are an idiot, who cares? I certainly don't, because the future of this country is at stake and we need to stop this illegal alien BS now, with serious law enforcement of our existing laws, or we are going to be minus many freedoms very soon. Talking nice to idiots who can't see that simple fact is not on my agenda.
"This issue is the big one for right now and probably will be for some years to come. The President and the both houses had better get with the program if they want republicans to hold seats for long."
First off I think our President and Congress are doing an abysmal job on protecting the borders. This comment that is so often repeated on FR, that the republicans had better watch out if they don't enforce the border.
Can you tell me what a better alternative is? More conservative republicans? That isn't much of a threat to the party. And what happens if those strong anti immigration republicans don't win the primarys over the same old slobs. Are you going to vote for a democrat over the republican for this one issue? Or are you going to throw your vote away on an independent in a vote of principal?
Maybe we should be taking a tip from the Illegal aliens that held the marches in so many cities. Lets all rally to get our asses to the borders for a weekend and spread out and completely shut it down. Lets do this repeatedly. Activism is the only way things will ever change.
Props to the Minutemen. They are doing the only thing possible to get the job done. They are even paying to build a fence. I have sent my donations, and plan a trip in the coming month to lend a hand. Have all of you anti immigration people done the same?
The cat is out of the bag... even in our small town, when an old codger called out local talk show, a couple of months ago (about the NAU and the ramifications for our dollar, etc.) he was laughed off the show.... today he called in and the hosts appologized to him.... Why? Because it is finally seeing light of day in the media.
