Our state GOP is in complete disarray, which is how the harpy got elected in the first place. The party is split down the middle arguing amongst itself, with neocons on one side and moderates on the other. As a result, they cannot agree on a candidate, and consistently run some marbled mouth nerd who can't get elected.

So, the dems have been able to take what has been a completely red state.

She is a complete embarrassment.

I wish we had a Bobby Jindal. Perhaps after the next general election, when the pubbies put the smackdown on Hitlery/Obama, a new face will emerge.

Good, but I would like to see a specific regulation against TRANSPORTING ACROSS STATE LINES, again, specifically. To also have something passed would also put it on the front page and word would spread within the illegal alien community and within countries who harbor vast amounts of people who are would be illegals, just waiting their chances.

THIS ANTI ILLEGAL ALIEN THING IS PICKING UP A TON OF STEAM. NOTICE THE SILENCE FROM THE ONCE OBNOXIOUSLY ARROGANT lARAZA SCHMUCKS WHO ACTED AS IF THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE OVER THE COUNTRY ANY DAY.

Yeah I noticed that too...according to La Raza all that was left was the mopping up....

Good, but I would like to see a specific regulation against TRANSPORTING ACROSS STATE LINES, again, specifically.

The law I cited specifically adresses transportation. "A person (including a group of persons, business, organization, or local government) commits a federal felony when she or he:

assists an illegal alien s/he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who lacks employment authorization, by transporting, ".

Extending your line of thinking it would be just as necessary to breakdown the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act into separate components and make each component a separate law. That would be redundant as it would only resconstitute the same law many times over and would not be anymore effective to enforce multiple laws as it would one law. The problem is not ineffective laws. The problem is those who are responsible to enforce the laws haven't been willing to enforce them.

The answer is to pressure all those responsible including the President, members of Congress, state and local officials. This has been happening within the last year. Consequently law enforcement authorities are increasingly applying immigration laws.

It wasn't/isn't just the LaRaza schmucks...that arrogance was/is rampant among Latino activists and why the big finger is pointed at Hispanics regarding illegal immigration, and not illegal Asians, Canadians etc.... that unfettered arrogance will be their undoing...mark my words....

If such legislation came up for a vote, would you support it? (with that new language specifying state borders)?

Ironically the precise moment of their downfall was at the heighth of when they themselves thought they were being their best and most successful. With the huge rallies in the streets that happened, they got jazzed up over it into a literal frenzy, but while that may well have pushed (doubled) their support from 3% to 6% of the people in the USA, all at the same time, it woke up and radicalized a VAST SEGMENT of Americans AGAINST THEM, so that it went from something like 40% opposed to 90% opposed.

And THAT...is what I call...urinating in the wind.

We don't need more legislation as it already exists with the law I cited to you. The problem is we are not enforcing the existing laws. You can pass all the laws you want but they mean nothing if they aren't enforced. Passing more laws will result in more of the same because existing laws aren't enforced doesn't solve anything.

[AmericanInTokyo]

I take that as a “no”, then.

Interesting article. I’m sure it will interest one of Free Republic’s most vocal supporters of illegal immigration, DCPatriot.

DCPatriot says that the vast majority of FReepers oppose such efforts to purge the US of illegal aliens.

Perhaps its time they stood up and were counted.

Thanks, Ive taken care of it. The problem is a sticky key. Someone apparently spilled something on the KB and it occasionally acts up. If I weren’t so cheap i’d by another one.

[aroundabout]

There really is a silent majority in this country. I just hope they are really awake and will STAY awake.

[Mark Felton]

yes. you are right. i do agree.

the best evidence is the degree of unsecured debt and the increasing bankruptcies and foreclosures.

The dollar is weaker than ever.

When debt defaults overload economic margins then standard of living will plunge, prices will skyrocket and political upheaval will follow.
