There were actually 103 members to be exact http://tancredo.house.gov/irc/members.html. However, some of these are NOT "build a fence and expel them all" extremists, but simply of the opinion that something needed to be done. Ron Paul, for example, is the most open borders solution guy of all the Republicans, and he is a member of the caucus. There are a number of libertarians and market solutions people in the caucus. Dane is correct in saying that several of the most vocal "law enforcement solution" advocates of immigration reform were defeated.

I don't know Dane, being new here but s/he is simply saying what seems to be common sense to me....., many conservative Republicans think that simply building a wall is not a solution at all, nor is it the best thing for us, nor is it particularly intelligent, if we do not reform our immigration policies.

I don't understand the venom, either. Did she turn you down for a date or something? It is just a discussion, after all.

Dane didn't make that differentiation.

Dane repeatedly plays long and fast with the facts, and in this case she got caught lying - she has been making the claim on thread after thread that a third of the Tancredo caucus got the boot when that is nowhere near the case, in order to make a dishonest slime attack on that grup. She is not an honest poster - and such people deserve all the derision they get.

But nice job of impunging my motives rather than deal with the fact that Dane got caught in a bald-faced lie. But that's pretty typical of the tactics from your side.

I'm not a she, but a he. That tactic by the Tranglogidites(Tancredo supporters) has been going on for years on FR, but what the hey it makes the Tranglogidites feel all warm and fuzzy inside and feeling so superior, akin to nancy pelosi today.

Why crash their egotistcal party.
