Is Ron Paul our only hope for a secure border?

Michael Savage calls it a “third world invasion”. I call it an “immigration travesty”. Whatever phrase you wish to attach to it, our southern borders are as open as Al Gore's wallet in a carbon credit retailer.

Rudy Giuliani proclaimed New York City a sanctuary city as Mayor. McCain sponsored the immigration reform bill (dubbed “Amnesty bill” by immigration activists) that died quickly in Congress and Mitt Romney's position on immigration keeps changing, at least according to John McCain. Fox News took a jab at Romney during the debate several days ago, questioning the fact he had hired illegal immigrants to cut his own lawn.

If immigration is your issue, then Ron Paul appears to be your man. Paul has held the most consistent position on immigration out of any of the candidates running for the White House during his decades of service in Washington D.C.

As for HR1885, here is a link for everyone to judge for themselves if it is an extension of Section 245-i amnesties for illegal aliens.

I just want to know who hung the Ron Paul banner on the construction fence in front of the Federal Building this morning.

In downtown, blue Seattle no less.

Yes, he's been consistent. He's never been an advocate to secure the borders or never introduced anything that would secure them. His 'consistency' is to state welfare should be cut off from aliens. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

What is the significance of having EVOL is all caps in your tag line?

It's from the anarchist side of the Paul movement.. they are reusing an old 'love revolution' sign for Paul's campaign.

Don't you hate it when a fingernail gets chipped and starts catching on everything? And you're nowhere near anything to file down the rough part, so it KEEPS catching on stuff and snagging things?

I really hate that.

It happened to me recently.

Tracking it back.. it looks like the anarchists took it from this album art:

I wonder if Pinnicle records knows they've stolen their copyrighted marketing slogan.

Oh, good grief. I’m really going to vote for someone who uses that in their slogan! Not.

That clears up the odd lettering on the Ron Paul sign tacked to the Federal Building across the street.

Here are more instances of this logo being used from 2004 and before, including ‘impeach Bush day’ (near the bottom of the list)..

Someone really should check as to who owns the copyright on that.

34 years (the Roe vs. Wade abortion Holocaust) of 1.5 million innocent babies slaughtered per year is RATHER unprecedented as well and kills people off faster than immigrants can replace them.

Exactly. Each of the three of them (Hunter, Tancredo, and Paul) are coming at it from a slightly different angle. Hunter emphasizes “national security = border security” with his repeated calls for a tough physical fence; Tancredo hammers on the cultural and political costs of illegal immigration; and while Paul takes a more libertarian view on closing the border, he does want to remove government programs that attract illegals (and everybody else too).

But the author of this piece is crazy if he thinks that Paul is the “only” secure-border candidate. Hunter’s just as strong or stronger, and secure borders is the one thing that Tancredo’s made his name on—nobody outside his district would know who he is were it not for his leadership on stopping illegal immigration. I’d rank both of them slightly ahead of Paul on that issue.
