Pres. Bush 1998 “Read my lips, no new taxes.”

Pres. Bush 2007 “This is not amnesty.”

The Democrat Party is popping champaign corks with this gift to their future.

We had a Uniting Voice. His name is Pat Buchanan. But he was savaged by “conservatives” and was ignored.

Don't be silly. Sharpton isn't a uniting voice. He is just somebody who claims that he is.

I do not think this forum is meant only for US citizens and that those who are not US citizens cannot express their views on any matter. Tell me what have you done to this forum to make you and Spiff superior members over me?

It's not that the forum is only for US citizens, but that this is an issue on which many of us frankly are not interested in what anyone who is not a citizen thinks or has to say on the subject. As a non-citizen, you are our guest. A welcome one as a legal resident alien, but a guest. Just as I would be a guest in England or elsewhere in Europe.

To me, the view on immigration of every citizen, whether I agree with it or not, has infinitely more weight than your opinion.

YOU ARE SO WRONG...THE LOUDEST HORN GETS THE ATTENTION.....HE MAY JUST BE A DEFECTIVE HORN, BUT AT LEAST HE DOES SOMETHING...MORE THAN OUR PARTY HAS DONE IN YEARS.

Please dont get to smart about this....The vote is not about illegals, its about votes, the 08 election and lining the pockets of crooked politicians.

Do you honestly think they care about illegal aliens?

You have no shame.

...says the immigrant to America who regularly shows up on illegal immigration threads calling concerned citizens of the country that took him in 'racists' for caring about their sovereignty.

Good point. Rally behind Tancredo or we all take a vacation at the same time and march toward the border.

Would want to have prison inmates deciding how to run the prison? Of course, all ideas can be expressed. I just believe it is inappropriate for non-citizens, as our guests, to get involved in our politics. If they want to be involved in our political life, take out citizenship. I should have been more precise perhaps, that I simply am not interested in anything a non-citizen has to say about immigration.

The Administration is treating this like a PR event. They have the President saying it is not amnesty and saying there will be no animosity. [Shows how out of touch he is.]

Then Chertof shows up to give the illusion that there is no danger posed to our country. Funny, I think he protests too much. But, strangely, I am angered more by the blow to our traditions and culture than I am by fear of terrorism. This country is a shining light because of its independence and capitalism. If the socialism of Mexico inserts itself into America, we will become just another socialist country in North America.

Tancredo is great...but does he even believe in himself?

He looks like he needs a dose of confidence!

HE NEEDS TO BE LOUD AND CLEAR ABOUT WHERE HE STANDS WITH CONFIDENCE. AND WHEN HE SHOWS UP AT RALLY’S THERE NEEDS TO BE THOUSANDS...I REPEAT THOUSANDS BEHIND HIM..

THEN YOU WILL SEE SOME TAP DANCING ON THE OTHER CANDIDATES START.

“You guys are in very dangerous over reaction mode.”

I appreciate the calm voice of reason as much as the next guy, but I don’t think it is possible to overreact to this situation.

So you are willing to take the lesser of two evils? That’s what keeps getting us into trouble. We need to take a stand, not compromise or go for the the lesser of two evils. It’s what they are counting on. Can’t you see they are all the same. Power and corruption. Neither party gives a damn about the taxpayer as long as we keep on lining their pockets.

“It is really shocking how the majority of freepers cannot see the simple fact that it is impossible to deport 12 million immigrants. How many law enforcement people required to do so? Are we going to send 500 police to a compound housing illegal immigrants and their families kick the doors of apartment and pull out people and put them in buses? Are the police going to raid the malls and the restaurants and arrest the illegal immigrants? How many informants we need to tell us about the location of illegal immigrants? To do this America will have to become a POLICE STATE and this will never happen in America despite the delusions of many on our side. The national backlash against the conservatives and anyone who endorse such a thing will be worst than anything we can imagine.”

What a crock of crap. I’ve been reading this thread and it’s been REPEATEDLY stated how relatively easy it would be for these criminal illegals to self deport. This isn’t rocket science. Sheesh.
