Lott sticks his foot in it again, talk radio, immigration
Hugh Hewitt ^ | 6/15/07 | From Hugh Hewitt's site

Posted on 06/15/2007 7:00:19 AM PDT by taildragger

a quote from Senator Lott:

"I'm sure senators on both sides of the aisle are being pounded by these talk-radio people who don't even know what's in the bill," Lott said. He added that the "leadership will have to be prepared to do what needs to be done."

I like telling them to start packing as they’re out of there at the first opportunity. They don’t like giving up their power and throne. None of these traitors live in the real world. We, the People, are the peons living down in the trenches. These elitists live in their ivory towers ordering us to do their bidding. Our founding fathers are turning in their graves make no mistake about that.

Regarding your tagline; And they still single out conservatives. Unless 69% of the population is conservative. I wish.

The GOP has had lame leadership before but this crew are truly a bunch of rocks. How stupid can they be to push a bill that will destroy not only the GOP but the country?

It's the "Two-Party Cartel". It doesn't listen to the people anymore. It owes its allegiance to the elites. The sheeple keep voting these frauds back in. The cycle goes on & gets more restrictive.

“Who cares what is in the bill? What is in it will never be enforced anyway, just like the 1986 immigration law”

I think a ton of people care. I know I do. Isn’t that the one where we allowed millions of people to become citizens?? They managed to enforce that provision!! What’s that old adage - fool me once, shame on you? Well, they’ve managed to fool us twice thus far. So it’s REALLY a case of shame on us this time if we don’t fight this with everything we have!

Hey Lott! I know that there is a provision in the bill that gives the DHS and ICE just 24 hours to object to a Z visa application, otherwise one is automatically issued.

The Two-Party Cartel will be history soon. All these legalized illegals will vote in only their own, who will then proceed to tax the gringo out of existence to fund their socialism.

The problem the amnesty crowd is having is that people like Hewitt have read the bill; they do know what's in there!

May want to change your tagline... Yesterday's Rasmussen poll showed that a solid 80% of Americans are against the amnesty bill, including 55% of democrat voters.

“... leadership will have to be prepared to do what needs to be done.” — Trent Lott

Interesting quote. I prefer Thomas Jefferson’s:

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” — Thomas Jefferson

AND

“... Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.” — Thomas Jefferson

I’m sure this man is compromised. I remember something about a land deal. Whatever, guarantee he has skeletons in his closet that are moving him down this treacherous path.

How is that going to really happen when illegals in Mississippi will be quickly turned into U.S. legal individuals and then many of them will also quickly register to vote throughout the U.S.? When “Shamnesty” legislation truly does become the “law” of the land, then U.S. will end up quickly becoming a third world country forever with endless waves of illegals coming here from all over the world. These endless waves of illegals who do register to vote in the U.S. won’t be voting in the super majority for truly conservative politicians at every political level. They will be voting forever for the “most leftist” politicians that exist!

$1.2 billion of that $4.5 billion will be for Lott’s hairspray.
