I’ll take Pat Buchanan over your fave Mel Martinez any day of the week
I have my gripes with Pat Buchanan on Israel and the Islamic threat but Pat has been a lot more right than wrong
IT IS TIME TO WAKE UP AMERICA, LET US NOT SIT BACK AND FALL ASLEEP BECAUSE THE EVIL-DOERS IN CONGRESS WILL BE PLOTTING AND PLANNING ONCE MORE!
BE VIGILANT
AMERICA FOR AMERICANS!
ASSIMILATE OR GO HOME!
No. That's not what I said. Please don't put words in my mouth in your sad attempt at a straw man argument. These posts are easily viewed by anyone interested. So, it's really not too swift to claim someone said something he did not.
I said, "As for economics, Marxist love to define things that way."
In other words, Marxists love to look at the economic rationale of a situation rather than the moral or ethical perspective.
The fact that illegal immigrants are coming here for "economic" reasons, is no more a justification than it is for someone burglarizing your house.
If we are to survive, the rule of law, rather than economics must prevail.
As for your, "You're an idiot." comment... No offense taken. I consider the source.
I agree this is needed. But, I still want that damned fence we've been promised and paid for.
And build a wall too. And strip green cards and citizenship from legal immigrants who employ illegal immigrants. Then deport them
Duncan Hunter may fill the bill better or at least as well as anyone of the Republican hopefuls in terms of “real” conservative principles. But he will never be the nominee.
The nominee will either be Romney or Giuliani. Hunter, Thompson, et. al. will likely fill the bottom half of a ticket. Now, to me, it looks like Romney, but, yes, indeed, almost ALL of them on the Republican side would be a huge improvement over anyone on the Dem side. At this point we just don’t want someone like Bush, who has allowed way too much in the name of his original role as ‘uniter, not divider’, a kind of tongue-in-cheek sealing of his fate that ANYONE in political life should have seen was self-defeating from the beginning.
Hunter needs our support now. If we bow to the likes of Romney we will be as sorry later as we are now about Bush!
Check out the article here from Human Events about the NAU. And get off your comfortable TV butt! TV is in the hands of the enemy. You should be able to see that by now.
Hunter is not dropping out. But many will if they are faced with Romney or worse Rudy.
If the republicans abandone their base then Hillary will be in the White House. And that's what the CFR wants.

“The media should not be allowed to pick our next President!”-—
well, no, but they doat least let it be known who they consider to be the chosen nominee of BOTH parties, considering that they are infinitely so much better organized than any grassroots movement has ever been , at least in my lifetime.
“Get off your comfortable TV Butt!”
Huh? It’s not me that’s letting anyone pick anything. I am not INFLUENCED by what I perceive to be the foregone conclusion of whoever it is that the media already seems to have anointed-—there just is, you have to admit , a certain inevitabilty to it/ If the media backs either Romney or Giuliani they will feel they’ve done their part to make this upcoming contest “fair and balanced”.
We stillhave the power of the vote. But it will be completely gone if we let them take it.
I tried to warn people about Bush in 2000 and then gave up in 2004 because all we had was Bush. But that route is fatal.
We need to discipline ourselves to ignore the pundits on TV and get out the message. If we just accept that we can't do anything about it then we will have given up
I won't go down without a fight!
I still love this country, what there is left of it.

I won’t go down without a fight either. I am in the middle of a real estate struggle in New Jersey to save a historic house lived in by a Continental Congressman in the mid 18th century, and many prominent local people since then including the land surveyor who laid out railroad lines to this town before the Civil War, and who the town was finally named after. I know about fights, because this is the Labors of Hercules: a developer got in under the radar, and now wants to demolish it and build 11 townhouses there. We work 24/7 with petitions and awareness building, etc. in addition to seeking funding from preservation agencies, because we may have as little as two months to get it all together. As of right now, we luckily have a lawyer who has found all kinds of discrepancies with the plans, and wants the whole thing brought back to our Zoning Board rather than the Planning Board. We won’t go down without a fight either. All I am suggesting by this, is that for Duncan Hunter to become the nominee you will need 50,000 groups like our own across the nation dedicated to his cause, just as we are dedicated to wresting this mansion (the house evolved into a mansion over the 19th century), from the grip of the developer who wants to tear it down. Where are you going to get those groups? Do you know how hard it is even for OUR little group not to get discouraged day by day and week by week as we continue to shell out our own money for this cause, which we MAY NOT WIN?
I think that's the real undercurrent in this whole situation. The pols mouth platitudes as to why they're doing this, but everybody seems to know that what they're saying isn't the real reason...and they don't trust any of this an inch because they aren't being told the real reasons.
Compassion? Path to citizenship? Better life? BLAH! Nobody believes that government works that way, especially at warp speed under cover of darkness like they're trying to do with this bill. We all have our suspicions...but there are so many dirty motives behind all this that they have to remain unexpressed-- and that's why NO ONE trusts any of this.
“The bottom line is that the Reps want the bill for more cheap exploitable labor and the Dems want it for future voters to ensure that they become the permanent majority party. We are being sold down the river by the political elites while sowing the seeds of our own destruction.”
Thanks for the statistics, I had seen similar ones. Was this census info? Anyways, agreed with the above statement. I am trying to figure out if their are any other behind the scenes reasons to this madness but I guess it really boils down to power and greed.
I got off on the wrong foot with you. My apologies. We are of one mind. (Though we still need that damned fence.)
Best regards,
Barnacle
No need, I should be the one apologizing for losing my cool. Thanks for your reply.
Freep on my FRiend.
American Catholic Bishops should be reminded of this.
