Republicans have appointed 7 of the 9 Supreme Court justices.
It wasn't bad and was far superior to the open border, amnesty-lite bill the senate passed.
It was too broad though. It just needs to cover building border length wall (definite construction timetable) and requiring the criminal prosecution of employers of illegals.
When a bill gets too broad then it is easy to demonize and mischaracterize. There is no way the senate nor the president could reject such a bill without destroying all of what credibility they have left.
Not protecting our borders, while having a war on terror, borders on treason already. They won't have to fabricate anything. He took an oath to protect the citizens of the US and our borders.
We live in an area with a lot of hispanics, and I don't know of any that vote republican.
Of course they don't - the only large block of republican voting hispanics are the cubans in SE Florida.
Now hispanics do tend to vote for Bush a bit, especially in Texas, but that is because he promises and delivers to them an open border. If that is the only way to get their vote then it is good for the country or the party longterm?
It cracks me up when party loyalists try to advocate the Mexicans will vote conservative do to family values and an anti-abortion stance. lol
Exactly. The ones we know are catholic, but they despise President Bush.
