I never thought I would see this President come to this point.

I have been a long supporter of his. I waited in the rain to see him on the campaign trail in 2004. I have money to his campaign in 2000 and 2004 and voted for him twice.

Someone cue the song "Thank you For Being a Friend."

I'm calling and e-mailing my senators and Bush almost every day. If this disaster of a bill passes, we can kiss our country goodbye.

The Washington Times reported yesterday that small donations to the Republican National Committee have dropped by an estimated 40 percent...

If the moderate republicans don't get it from this mere fact they will never get it. I think moderates might even hunker down to try and defend any conservative press.

Conservatives, we are in for a fight and we better be willing to take it on! We HAVE to have a conservative majority in the repub party before we ever have a snowball's chance in hell of ever beating the DBM/dems again.

No Border Fence Has Already Cost 45,625 Innocent U.S. Lives

Minuteman Border Fence Costs: $1.3 Million per mile

Federal Government Fence Costs: $4,000,000 per mile

NO FENCE - DOING NOTHING - AMNESTY Costs: 45,625 innocent U.S. killed by illegal aliens since September 11, 2001.

More Americans are murdered each year by illegal aliens than have died in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan combined.

White House: Instant amnesty for illegals living in your backyard - It's a Reality.

The choice is yours Do Nothing, Complain or Secure the Border!

Why is it that the proponents of this terrible bill always say “ we can’t possibly deport 12 million criminal immigrants” We have many more than 12 million people who smoke pot in this country, and yet we don’t hear the same argument about them? The government seems hell bent on rounding them up and putting them in jail. Let’s give them amnesty! (of course they will have to pay a fine and return to their home first). And why does ANYONE believe the government will do it right this time? They have absolutely ZERO credibility on the issue.

I’m a Democrat, however, I did cross the lines and vote for President Bush in 2004.

A question that is nagging at me a bit: was I wrong to do so?

I had two reasons for voting for President Bush in 2004. First, the WOT. I thought that Pres. Bush was essentially right on Iraq. Second, I thought that Sen. John Kerry would be much worse.

I stand back and look at it and I wonder if Sen. Kerry really *could* have been any worse. He wouldn’t have had the support of a pliant Congress (which at that point was controlled by the GOP), and he would have galvanized the conservative opposition.

And on the WOT, I wonder how effectively the WOT can continue to be prosecuted by a President who has the support of probably less than a third of the population. He’s a lame duck, and what was his own base is more or less openly looking forward to 1-20-09.

Was I wrong to support and vote for President Bush in 2004?

And it is right to take political risk for members of the United States Congress,”

Like he did? If he would have had this as a campaign promise than I can see him saying this, but he did not.

The president pleaded with senators to "show courage and resolve" to withstand outrage from voters in their districts.

Easy for him to say not having to run for reelection. And I voted for this guy twice. Damn!

One does not compromise on one’s own survival. President Bush is taking America and the Republican party down with his refusal to take steps to repel the Mexican invasion. What his motive could possibly be is beyond me.

No civilization has ever survived such a massive population shift of less-civilized people as the U.S. is suffering today. You can check it out.

“...small donations to the Republican National Committee have dropped by an estimated 40 percent.”

Now that’s the frightening thing to GOP politicians.
Maybe all those illiterate illegals, who the President assures us are really closet Republicans, can give them the campaign funds that US citizens are refusing to give to the GOP.

Come Monday I think I'm going to not do my job, insult my CFOs intelligence and chastise him for it, and see what happens.

I stopped giving to the RINO National Committee a long time ago. I give to deserving candidates, not to herds of horned pseudoRepublicans.

Bill Whittle http://www.ejectejecteject.com/

excerpt

Large numbers of non-citizens want to live in the United States. Large numbers. A society can only assimilate so many people in a given year. If millions and millions of people come here illegally, they are loading the system to capacity at the expense of the honest, decent people who are doing the right thing by applying to immigrate legally. If we reward illegal immigration with amnesty, we have allowed the illegals not only to screw our own people and laws, but even more so they harm their own countrymen who are trying to get here by cooperating.

**** The biggest losers in our inability to control illegal immigration are the legal immigrants. What benefit do these honest people gain from playing by the rules? This is as clear a real-world example as you are likely to see of the lack of retaliation flipping a system from cooperation to betrayal.

And, by allowing this to happen, you also set a precedent, which I think is even more destructive: you are saying not only to the illegals but to the entire society that laws are for chumps. Cheaters win.
