You'll Love This! (Tony Snow on Comprehensive Immigration Reform)
NRO The Corner ^ | 11/7/06 | Kathryn Lopez

Posted on 11/07/2006 9:07:06 PM PST by LS

Everyone had a good stiff drinkie? Here goes:

FoxNews reporting from the White House: White House spokesman Tony Snow reacted to the change in House control by allowing they're disappointed, but that it presents some intriguing opportunities, such as passing comprehensive immigration reform which failed in the previous Republican House."

If this is true... I think I'm a Mike "The Savage" Weiner fan once again....

Jason, I'm big on closed borders. I even want to deport the illegals who are here---ALL of em. But your analysis doesn't work: Randy Graf, who was strong on borders, got annihilated. So did J.D. Hayworth.

I don't know WHAT voters wanted, because they kicked out all our RINOs too---Johnson, Shays, etc. But as much as I would like to think it was the immigration issue, it wasn't. I think the war was an undercurrent that people vented on the Congress.

Well, this is what all the stay-at-home conservatives wanted, right? Right?

I mean, it was obviously going to happen if you punished the one body that supported your position so it must be what the always angry jackasses wanted, right?

Things are going to change now--and I hope our side is diligent about holding their feet to the fire!

Time to put up, Nancy Pelosi.

No nightmare. They win the house barely, the GOP holds the senate barely. As predicted by most pundits, but not me. I expect more from Americans.

"Or maybe now they can propose a much STIFFER bill"

Not a chance! Amnesty, millions of new democrat voters....road to the White House, road to the senate.

Well, duh. I don't know who is fooling anyone.

Now, what do you suggest we do about it? Both Randy Graf and J.D. Hayworth, who were strong on closing the borders, lost. NONE of the conservatives in the Senate who favord closed borders survived, unless Allen pulls it out.

Actually he is neither.

If there is one lesson here, it is that the country is divided incredibly evenly. The true believers on each side are more convinced than ever that only evil moonbat minorities disagree with their own brand of transcendent virtue. But in fact millions of utterly reasonable human beings do as well. If either side were remotely right about what the country as a whole thinks, they'd have 65% to 80% mandates and would smash the other party. Instead they are so close every race goes to recount land as 1% of single states decides between them. The parties are partisan and strident as never before and the people are not remotely following either's line.

That's the only way I'm going to get through this. It's a new Country...and we are going to have to adjust.

" such as passing comprehensive immigration reform which failed in the previous Republican House.""

That is the real tragedy in all of this. The consequences of Bush being able to get his immigration plan through congress would be disastrous.

The GOP will pay the price forever. Arizona is already Little Mexico. Look at what happened to J. D. Hayworth, a fine Representative. Look at the support for our lesbian governor-dictator. Mexican is now normative in Phoenix.

We refinanced today. The closer said he deals with Mexicans who have been here 10 years and do not speak a word of English. They don't have to. He came from immigrant parents and proudly served in Viet Nam: DSC, Silver Star, three Purple Hearts, etc. You can guess his thoughts about Kerry.
