I am starting to think that these elitists see us as retarded children who must be led to "what's good for them" and have it explained to us in very simple terms. What happened to the country I was born in?

[VR-21]

Surely his boss explained to him that we “don’t want what’s right for America.”

[rolling_stone]

It will be taken up by the next President if he is a conservative....If not even Kennedy on crack couldnt dream up anything worse than this, it was his best shot for liberals

[2ndDivisionVet]

No, we’re nativist, xenophobic, racist bigots; haven’t you heard? Sittin’ in our double-wides, polishin’ our shotguns, drinkin’ corn likker and shackin’ up with our sisters...

[sheana]

Commerce Secretary Gutierrrz.....go straight to hell, do not pass go, do not collect $200. Go straight to hell!

[VR-21]

I was with ya till’ ya got to that sister part. Mine brake mirrers.

That would be terrible for national security

More national death threat blackmail from the administration. "If you don't give us amnesty, we will refuse to enforce the immigration laws and jeopardize national security."

After amnesty, they will be falling over each other to show how opposed they are to anything that would rub the new voters the wrong way. If you think you've seen a refusal to protect the borders and confront the illegals now, just wait and see how worse it will get after amnesty.

>>polishin’ our shotguns<<

Absolutely. Especially to shoot at "clay pigeons."

[common denominator]

Has any administration official mentioned why they chose not to enforce the laws?

[2ndDivisionVet]

Ain’t ya got no feed sacks out in yer neck o’ the woods? Well, there ya are!!

[PajamaTruthMafia]

It’s so important they waited SIX YEARS to address it.

These people think we are stupid. Or, they are stupid. Or they are liars. None of the options are good.

[ChildOfThe60s]

We could be arguing about the meaning of amnesty for the next 10 years

There is nothing to argue about. They come here illegally, we allow them to stay, they become legal. Then they become citizens (after having the citizenship test given to them in spanish). Sure sounds like amnesty to me.

And frankly Mr. Gutierrez, I don't give a rat's ass how you "define" it, or what you call it. I don't want illegals to be allowed to stay in this country. How simple is that? Since I am obviously a simple person, as evidenced by the fact that I don't believe a word that comes out of your mouth, it is only logical that I talk to you in simple terms.

You can call it "immigration reform" but I call it a big load of crapolla.

[VR-21]

Weez pore, an only hav enuff feed saks for the livestock.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Well, then do as we do, kill two birds with one stone...

[Commerce Secretary]Gutierrez: No immigration bill ‘terrible for national security’

Mr Commerce Secretary Gutierrez: "Be advised this immigration bill is ‘terrible for national security’, The Grand Compromise II. As was the 'The Grand Compromise I' and the 2006 McCain-Kennedy Immigration Fiasco were ‘terrible for national security’."

Maybe you should stick to commerce and not immigration. Or are you telling your trafficking is 12-20 million bodies is relative to commerce.

According to Robert Novak

6. President Bush did himself no favors last week by denouncing those opposed to the immigration bill as uninterested in the nation's well-being. On its own, the decision to combine border security with naturalization of illegal immigrants has always been the President's way of holding a national priority (security) hostage to a policy (legalization) that he views as desirable.

Just say NO to Illegal Alien Amnesty!! Keep calling!! It’s NOT OVER!!

Mr. Gutierrez, this is what “terrible for national security.” It is that our government has let 12 to 20 million people into this country without knowing who they are. We don’t need any sermons on the subject.

[VR-21]

No way, then we wouldn’t be able to kiss em’.

[blam]

Okay. Now, it's that we can't/won't prosper without illegal immigrants because we need the workers.

NO TO AMNESTY.

Deport the illegals!!
