I’ll have to get back to you. The garden calls.
We all know, from many discussions about Thompson's record, that his Senate legacy isn't in what bills he sponsored or backed, but rather the bad legislation he stopped or altered. Next, you'll trot out the tired "research" from Numbers USA which conflate legal with illegal immigration and distort the context or meaning of other votes.
Thompson's position is strong and clear: Secure the borders. No to amnesty or the stupid "Z-visa" ruse. Enforce the law.
I'm sure we'll be hearing more specifics in the next few months.
:o)
Your pissanthropy has done NOTHING for your candidate.
It appears you’re doing it for your own self-aggrandizement.
Fair enough. What did he stop or alter during the 1996 debate on the omnibus immigration bill?

Fantastic post, Kevkrom!
I suggest you closely examine Fred’s record. In the meantime, enjoy.
Save it, I’ve seen’em.
A Hannity interview of Fred doesn’t compare with his infatuation for Rooty Toot. Enough! This is a lowly side issue.
Fred`s support is good. Yesterday was a big day for his campaign effort. Making the unofficial more official will get even more conservatives moving towards supporting Fred. A positive impact for sure. If conservatives want to stop Rooty from any further successes, they better rally around Fred. The sooner, the better.
No coronations.
None planned.
Just support for a good conservative named Fred.
That is all I can do.
I listened to what was on Hunter’s website about ten days ago, and unless he changed it, I can’t see on his website. He says build the fence over and over and over again. He says it is possible to deport [when pressed by a reporter in an interview] but does not specify that he will deport all of them. The reporter wanted more of an answer and he said to tell them to go home.
I’ve not been able to find an interview of Hunter saying anything about an extensive deportation. Do you have a link?
I listened to a bunch of interviews and could not find it.
Fred is under restrictions as to what he can say or how much until after declaring.
Hunter is declared, and according to you he is perfect. Does he say the same thing that you are saying?
That's absurd. Do you expect people to believe that crap?
Look, I want to flip them all over the fence. There are times I think if I see another Bilingual ATM I will goes nuts.
However I know what we are up against. We have made some limited headway with the press, but nowhere near enough to overcome the “sympathetic” expose’ on the plight of the poor little migrant worker. We have the search for cheap labor, which is hard to go against money wise, and the fact that for what it’s worth there are a lot of good hard workers in that mix. They are indeed doing a few things that the lower end of our work force shuns in favor of handouts and minimal effort. I have witnessed that first hand.
I will say it one more time, Draconian measures will backfire all the way back into the issue of the fence and border security. We have to reverse 40 years of liberal mindset that has befallen a very large part of our voting population.
If you think that extreme conservative ideas are popular, why are we where we are now. Why did we start to lose it almost from day on 200 years ago. People do not always want to do what’s right, but what is expedient for them.
I don’t like it, but again there is the way things are and the way things ought to be.
As far as Fred on the fence, I am of a mind he wants to look at it further. As it is there maybe some ways to limit the expense of running one all the way across. Also there is some hesitation in some quarters about actually putting a fence across an entire border. The is a feeling that such an act is a tick too East German. As far as I am concerned it should go out 12 miles into the Gulf and Pacific, with mines, but again I am realistic and I don’t want to back myself into a corner where we get painted as nut cases and end up with Bupkis...
Google is your friend.
I’m sure I’ve left some out there, but you are spending a lot of time dragging down Fred on every little picayune thing you can think of. Don’t you have anything better to do? It is a pure waste of time trying to discuss anything in this manner.
Is there some jealousy going on?
Do you resent Fred and his supporters because of the draft movement and people are dissatisfied with the declared candidates?
Think you can pull down someone else and that will build up another candidate? It is more likely to discourage voters.
Perceptions [yours] equals everyone else’s reality?
Don’t like it that Fred gets media attention, even when he doesn’t plan for it [like in Minnesota]?
I am left to wonder about your agenda, and I don’t see anything positive about it.
It has been my experience that people who don’t have much to do spend a lot of time generating mischief. Seems like it would be much more productive to build up your candidate. Give it a try, you might be so busy you won’t have time to hang out on the Fred threads.
I wish there was even a little bit of good news for Hunter ...
