Chicken king Bo Pilgrim wants immigration reform. First he might keep an eye on his own coop.

Feathers are flying at Cluckingham Palace, the Pittsburg, Tex. mansion of Lonnie (Bo) Pilgrim. The 79-year-old founder and chairman of Pilgrim's Pride (nyse: PPC - news - people ), the nation's biggest chicken processor ($7.4 billion sales), had barely caught his breath following the sudden death in mid-December of Chief Executive O.B. Goolsby, when he faced a fresh crisis. On Jan. 8 a federal grand jury returned indictments against 20 Pilgrim employees. (No one has yet entered a plea.) Five people have been charged with peddling stolen Social Security numbers and forged documents to illegal immigrants looking for work at one of the company's slaughterhouses, in Mount Pleasant, Tex. Says Alan Jackson, the assistant U.S. attorney prosecuting the suspects, "Identity theft is what makes the case."

I want Huckabee and McCain to address this, specifically, this case. The people of Texas need to call these candidates to account and what they plan on doing to stop this in -your- face- corruption..

WE will lose an election if we refuse to unite. And McCain and his leftist supporter will lose control of the Republican party.

Losing an election is like losing a battle in a war. Losing permanent control of the Republican party is like losing a war.

If McCain wins the USA will end up with two leftist parties.

Loss of the Republican party to the left is not worth it.. It is losing the war for control of this nation to the left.

I fear the left controlling both political parties far more than I fear the terrorists.

“we will get moderate SCOTUS judges “

We will get liberal SCOTUS judges.

Republicans,

I sincerely believe that we must come together to support McCain, mend the GOP and defeat the dimocrats.
 
Makes sense to me; certainly hope it makes sense to you.

This seems to be a pretty good editorial. John McCain will be getting my vote in November. He may not be perfect but he’s certainly right on many, if not most, conservative issues.

Then you are not much of a conservative if he in your opinion is right on most conservative issues:

1. See post #28
2. McCain-Fiengold
3. McCain-Kennedy
4. McCain-Lieberman
5. Support for Stem-Cell Research
6. Support for Global Warming Scam
7. Will NOT Nominate judges like Scalia or Alito
8. Wants to close Gitmo
9. Leaked top-secret information about CIA Prisons in Europe.
10. Voted against President Bush'es Tax Cuts
11. Gang of 14 which kept conservative judges from being nominated.


The McCainiacs are trying to redefine what Conservatism is so they can get their TURD of a candidate elected.

Don't reward the bad behavior of John McAmnesty with your vote and please do not play the "Lessor of Two Evils" game when our selected GOP candidate is such a terrible candidate.

McCain will get his ass kicked in a debate with Obama. He probably will have a temper melt down between now and Nov. 4th. My guess is that he will either self destruct or look like a clown. Or both.

If there were enough anti-McCain Republicans to make a difference, McCain wouldn’t be the candidate.

I think Hunter had some questionable pork to some folks. And Fred was liked by the lawyers. But they both seem nothing short of mega conservative superstars compared to what we are stuck with now. LOL

I’m all for uniting. The GOP needs to get behind Huckabee. He’s the compromise. We all started at different ends. He’s middle ground. We have given up Hunter, Thompson, and Romney. They have given up only Rudy. It’s the establishments move now.

Republicans cannot win every Presidential Election.

Hopefully we will lose this one when he have such a crappy nominee and in the future we will win when we have a GREAT nominee.

My quibbles were very minor with either one.

The rest of the field? Sheesh.

The funny part is that the anti-McCain crowd play the role of the persecuted victim when it come to the debate about McCain. FR has a banner asking to stop McCain at any cost, 95% of vocal freepers are against McCain and attacking left and right without any mercy, 95% of talk radio hosts are against him and spend 90% of their time attacking him, and yet if someone like IBD tries to make the case why McCain is better than Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama, the “victimized conservatives” start screaming that they are being attacked.

Reagan was an analogy badly used by the candidates. It is the conservativism that matters.
And Reagan apparently did say there comes a time when you draw the line and don’t vote for the ones not representing you.

broken record here, i will never vote for anyone who called me a racist/bigot/nativist. THAT is disrespect.
Usually a president is never so bad or so good as you think. It will be up to congress to protect us.

"McCain pushers seem to think they can fear conservatives into voting for him"

That warrants repeating! He'll not have my vote ... period. I'm turning my sites on Congress to fuel the conservative backlash when a liberal takes the POTUS chair.
