Duh. Are you surprised? Geraldo would probably be Nasty McPains press secretary.
Absolutely! I think three basic forces are at work here: (1) ethnocentric (racist) lobby groups (2) special interest business lobbies (U.S. Chamber of Commerce, et al. who love those low wages, no benefits, and, better yet, ‘off the books’, and the suppression of wages for ALL Americans)and the enormous damage to our culture and civilization. In the end, as you say, it’s about power and control. And right now we’re losing and have no leader on the horizon. I should add a fourth force: Pandering politicians who only care about the next election and don’t give a damn about this country.
Great post and thanks for that information. It’s very clear (to me, at least!) that McCain is totally out of touch with the American people on this issue. His latest spin is that he will ‘secure’ the borders. I heard him when he said this and the impression I had was that he just was going through a routine, perfunctory message that he had to deliver to us conservative boobs. In other words, what was striking about the speech was that he conveyed the impression that he wasn’t sincere and enthusiastic about conservatism, and us conservatives. But I think we always knew that.
Talk about Racist. The only reason they don’t want us replacing the Invaders with Documented Workers is that they will be from all around the world and not just Mexico.
His recent campaign conversion on securing the border is BS. Remember, this is the guy who COSPONSORED the amnesty bill with Teddy Kennedy.
He’s no bystander, he’s a Benedict Arnold.
Take your pick.
The fast lane or the slow lane.
All roads lead to a dead end called ‘globalism’.
True. No one else with other views is even running.
Better start learning some Spanish so you can adapt to the new multicultural, bilingual, balkanized America.
Way ahead of you. Back in the Dark Ages, everyone said we should take French in school, as it is such a cultured language and helps with learning literature, etc. I took 5.5 years of Spanish instead. At least now I'll be able to converse with the people at city hall, the doctor's office, and the grocery store.
No, but what really surprises me is that he was hired by Fox. NOT because he is a far-Left liberal but because Fox usually has RESPONSIBLE liberal and conservative commentators. BUT Rivera is a mountebank and a fraud. Serious journalists and reporters - liberal and conservative - not only don’t take Rivera seriously but are united in describing him as a sensationalist tabloid scadal-monger..By the way, his mother was Jewish but he’ll only reluctantly admit it because it interferes with his self-projected image of the Latin “macho” man. What little intelligence he has clearly came from her!
I think so too, but I think the the closest and most immediate problem is the massive illegal invasion from Mexico. However, I think you’ve made a very good point. In the larger perspective, we’re being swamped by a Third World invasion that will probably (in the long run) end the great American “experiment.” I hope I’m wrong. Can anyone offer some consolation based upon the facts?
“Illegal Immigration, Amnesty Supporters Endorse McCain.”
I could only be more shocked if you told me that Obama just might get a majority of the black vote.
“NOT a photoshop job.”
More like “Part of the Plan”.
Geraldo Rivera and Juan Hernandez, two of the most flagrant supporters of illegal immigration and amnesty in the media, have both announced their support for McCain.
But...but he’s so GOOD on “security” issues./s
I’ll start laying mine out after Tuesday.
The financier of that “march” is, not coincidently, the same one as financed the gutting of the First Amendment known as “McCain-Feingold.”
I had to call Social Security this week, to report my father’s death.
I got a recording: “Press ONE for ENGLISH!”
I slammed down the phone. They are going to find out from the mortuary, anyway - so why even bother.
This is MY country. We speak ENGLISH here. Why do I have to press #1 at the corporate offices of Social Security? If you weren’t a citizen, why would you be calling the office of Social Security?
Really frosts ya, huh? Our government panders to Hispanics at all levels, and it appears that many of them turn a blind eye to their legality.
Pay attention to his bank account, if it’s still open. Don’t rely on the mortuary to tell SS admin, or that SS will actually stop the checks.
I hope you’re wrong about that. But nothing would surprise me with Bush. The “see you at the signing” was very typical of his arrogance and total detachment from the realities of ordinary life that so many Americans were daily experiencing. I voted for Bush in the last presidential elections but I really voted against Kerry. We conservatives havn’t had a candidate we can be really be enthusiastic about since Reagan. I think that unless we find a candidate who can inspire us we’ll and the nation, we’ll be condemned to a long minority.
