We still have the power of petitions to republicans and democrats

We are going hold the Republicans personally responsible if Bush pushes the shamnesty bill through with "Stretch" Pelosi.

Count on him doing just that. Bush squandered all the political capital of 2004 on trying to ram his amnesty-for-illegals through. Now that he's got a sympathetic audience in the Dhimmicrats, it's a sure bet he'll go for broke now.

You think Bush or his cadre of RINOs give a crap what you think? I've got an amnesty-for-illegals, a socialist prescription drug plan and Harriet Miers nomination that says otherwise!

Haven't we freepers learned anything yet??? If corporate America wants something bad enought they will get both parties to pass it. NAFTA had only 35 percent support, yet Clinton was able to twist enough Dem arms to give a majority GOP Congress the winning votes to pass the treaty. The same with CAFTA. Many GOP reps in the rural mill districts of the south and midwest had their arms twisted by GWB to pass CAFTA (despite opposition in the district). Many of these reps were thrown out on election day. Corporate lobbying power will be tested as a Free Trade Agreement with Vietnam is put forth for Congress. Let us see how Pelosi (rep CA) whose state has many trade interests in Asia will deal with the newly elected Dems from former GOP mill town rural districts to get the votes to pass the treaty. I think the treaty will pass by a very narrow margin (all GOP and a sliver of Dems). Result will be more Reagan Dems and GOP will stay home on election day in 2008.

No need. If all the illegals currently in the United States get amnesty and full voting rights, the Republicans are finished and will probably never win another election.
