As usual, big government takes on a responsibility to do a job and protect the people and they fail to deliver the services they promise.
So the ultimate responsibility has to be taken by people central to the root of the problem, the American community and their local government.
And big government says hands off. We will do the job. Give us more time and more money. Do not interfere with our arrogance.
I think it is time overdue for Americans to start being arrogant towards our government. The resistance is showing up and congress is getting a little nervous. But they still are arrogant and we need to take them down. The business of our nation should not be trusted to a bunch of lazy, whining snobs.
Any “Comprehensive Immigration Bill” fails to address the dilemma we face. Immigration is the orderly acceptance and assimilation of non-native persons wishing to become citizens of the host nation. Immigration is not the issue, INVASION is. We are facing an invasion by peoples, self-righteous and arrogant in their criminality, wishing to re-conquer territories and treasure lost in previous wars. Tragically, this invasion also provides cover for those wishing to infiltrate our shores to commit holy war upon us.
The President and Congress tell us that they do not have the tools to deal with illegal immigration. Maybe so, but since the ratification of the Constitution over 200 years ago, the federal government has had the tools and the Constitutional obligation to deal with an invasion (Art. IV, Sec IV).
We cannot address a problem that we won’t properly define. The media obfuscates by referring to the invaders as “undocumented workers” or “immigrants.” Let’s drop the pretence. A rose by any other name would smell as sweet and an invasion by any other name likewise smells.
Thank you!! You are exactly 3/4 correct. The commies are all ready elected and it couldn't be any worse.
Most of what passes for "Political Discourse" (including this board) is a dumb-show for the benefit the great unwashed. Who would seriously consider the relative advantages of the banker-pig masters as compared to the commie-pig masters or vice versa?
The new boss will be the exactly the same as the old boss. They are, in fact, the same people.

But this is worse than a passive bureaucratic failure. This is a branch of the government, the judiciary, actively preventing people from protecting themselves.
You know it, and I know it.
Do you live on this planet?
You are correct?

The reality is the people have the power, not them, they are nothing but the boogie man deJour. If people really wanted something done about illegal immigration (for example), they could do it. People could buy up all the land along the border and build their own walls. People could refuse to purchase any produce picked by illegals, stay in hotels cleaned by illegals, or hire a lawn services that use illegals.. but we don’t... why, because we are told someone else is controlling this situation and/or we aren’t willing to pay the price.. but the fact is, if it wasn’t equitable for illegals to come here, we wouldn’t be having any of these conversations about amnesty.
If there is any conspiracy of control, it is a conspiracy to make people think they are being controlled, and therefore helpless to make changes > so you just go along with the flow.
Do you honestly think that 1% of people could really control 99% of the people? The only hope they have is to make the 99% believe that there is a big shadow of control hanging over them...
And that's Farmers' Branch, not Framers' Branch.
Thanks.
And I repeat, do you live on this planet?
Yes. Tearing us down so they can prop us back up into their own corporate UN vision of what America should be like.
I can’t wait for the 08 elections. The people want change and the people are going to make some wholesale changes that take us back to the basics. The people have been ignored long enough.
I’ve enough trouble being in charge of my bladder, so no, it’s not me!
Speaking of federal judges, Proposition 187 in California, a people's initiative to limit taxpayer-paid services to illegal aliens, was axed by such a judge. Instead of rising up and raising hell, Californians allowed the judge to legislate from the bench. No one stood up for "the consent of the governed."
In fact, the notion that the people really run the country is now considered to be old-fashioned and obsolete by our elites. Many politicians also know they can get away with almost anything because "the people" are too damned lazy, uninformed and, lately, fearful of the political overclass to do anything about it.
Amen!
If you look at the composition of the executive, legislative and judidical, it becomes very clear. Lawyers are in charge of America.
